Joelzy's 96 5SPD(daily) & 5VZ block-up rebuild In all honesty, i didnt like the raptorliner on it. I didnt regret it because my paint was beat, had a little surface rust on the roof, and had too many dings to be worth real paint, but i didnt like the raptorliner. Got a ton of compliments...

I already bought an 04 discovery(dirt cheap) and an LS to drop in it. Had planned to sell the 4runner after the swap is done but i hate it sitting around and i dont have that much room. Figured if it sells high, great, if it doesnt i’ll come down eventually or just keep it and street park it...

responded to your PM, its pretty damn good if you want somehting just barely louder than stock.

i have the gibson stainless, been running it a few years now. Sounds great for a V6, no drone or anything. Im not one of those guys that bounces off the rev limiter so i cant comment on the ricer sound because it sounds good and deep throughout the rev range its seen.

Been a bit without an update but the other car has been getting all the love while the 4runner just runs without issue all the time. Realized last time i checked my plugs for tightness that there was oil in the tube of the plug that socially distanced itself from the head in a previous...

Joelzy's 96 5SPD(daily) & 5VZ block-up rebuild Go back to post #160 that was where i did it. Basically wedged the pods in where i wanted them and built the brackets around that using the bumper mount studs. This is a sort of sketch to show how they sit on the mounts i made. Sent...

i didnt do it, check my build for the story but i was working on paint for my other car and screwed up on the last step so i decided to not attempt painting anymore. They didnt do the jambs which was the only reason i stuck with the factory color.

Yeah, raptorliner in evergreen pearl. I had no clear coat left on horizontal surfaces and spots of surface rust so it was time and i had too many dents and dings to bother regular paint. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Probably would try the 5100s but im not sure what the best bet is without spending a fortune. I will say i have some weight in the back but not the amount that most who run 891s do. I have a storage platform and lots of tools and parts as well as a swingout with a spare and all the structure to...

i have 891s and got standard LC shocks that people reco for the rear and now wish i had bought 5100s or something a bit better. they're do the job but not fantastically.

I looked and looked for a pair or parts and ended up with one good bottom and a cover over the other. wasnt satisfied and pricing to get foam and new leather is more than i paid for the vehicle. Ended up buying a craigslist pair of seats out of a Nissan murano and welding the factory feet to...

Joelzy's 96 5SPD(daily) & 5VZ block-up rebuild i was already pretty rough on it but man the paint was junk before. looking forward to worrying even less

Joelzy's 96 5SPD(daily) & 5VZ block-up rebuild Welp, time for an update. Wasnt planning on it but it happened no less. So long story long, i was repainting the front end of my bmw and couldnt for the life of me get the clear to layout like i wanted. So i sanded it smooth and had the local...
