    where do you draw the line on repairs?

    Better the Devil you know, for me. I know what I've replaced and what I've yet to replace on my '96 1kz-te. Buying into someone elses problems, especially at the $15k pricepoint could easily be a can of worms. I'd stick with what you've got. You know (mostly) how its been driven, how well its...

    Is there a need for cup holders on the 96-98?

    Not sure if I'm a bit late to this, but my '96 has cupholders as standard that pop out of the dash, near the radio (seems to work fine with a single DIN radio for me)... It is an import though

    Who has had sex in their 4runner?

    What else do you drive?

    Just wondering what else you lot drive. I've got my '96 Gen3 1kz-te 4runner that I roll around in / go off road in, but also a '89 Golf GTi with a fair few mods (details in sig). What else have you got?

    How Fast

    I'm in no hurry. Out in here in Aus i'll cruise at 100kph/62MPH on the freeway but it will comfortably rock along at 130kph / 80-85MPH if needs be. Ive got a handful of a MK2/89 Golf GTi (details in sig) to go fast. The 4R is to roll around in and take off-road tbh. They're not designed to be...

    275/70/r16 and Bilstein 5100 Help

    This is exactly the size I've got on mine, on what turns out to be closer to a 3-3.5" lift than a 2" as originally thought... No rubbing at full flex or full steering lock, though I'll likely swap out the wheels for something with a lower ET (excuse the front end, its in for paint at the...

    Hilux surf diesel a real beauti

    Cool little tercel, and that Surf is the thing of dreams. Shouldn't admit it, but I preferred my gen2 with the 1kz-te compared to my gen3 with the same, aesthetically anyway. Gen3 seems more refined on the highway.
