    2011 vs 2015 engine differences

    Only difference i know is there is an air injection pump on the 2013+. Don't know if it will be a problem or not. I.e. If it's in the way or if it affected the intake ducting.

    VSC has to go.

    Not yet. Not sure if they will let me take a new car to where i consistently get the slippage. Ill talk to a guy in fleet sales that I know and see what he says. I would like to test it on a TEP which they dont have in stock right now...

    2015 TEP brakes really suck

    66k miles and had to replace rear pads and rotors. I thought that was weird but then I remember all the times I drive on steep dirt roads and the traction control is constantly braking my rear tires to keep them from spinning. I should probably look into a rear locker mod to lock it up when in...

    VSC has to go.

    I am gonna upgrade the ucas to lrucas and report back. I don't think another recalibration as is will change anything. There is a road that is level but the pavement is really spider cracked. Vsc trips everything so I'm pretty sure it's coming on that time because of wheel slip and not...

    2015 TEP brakes really suck

    I am totally with you on this. The brakes are fine, they stop the truck but more than once they have made me look like an idiot. My perception is the panic braking is too sensitive so if I have to stop quicker than I normally would if there happens to be a TRD Pro in the middle of the road, I...

    VSC has to go.

    Not yet. I read into the FJ thingie but when I unplug the system, it looks like it turns off the abs also and for some reason it make the terrain select light come on also. Dont think I want that solution. I will probably yaw recalibration again but doubt it will help much. It made a...

    Heated/cooled seats

    Leather is my main priority. Heated/vented would just make sense to add if I'm gonna go through this. I just wish I could buy the whole seat and just drop it in but can't find Toyota seats anywhere.

    VSC has to go.

    The front is only set at .85. I havent done anything to the back. I have done the zero point many times and as far as I know, the last two times it worked...

    VSC has to go.

    Ok I know its been talked about but I'm looking for last ditch effort here. VSC keeps coming on when I take corners at speed. Still scares the shit out of me and is very dangerous. I need to fix this. All I changed on the suspension is add the adjust able bilsteins up front and remote resi's...

    TRD PRO and 33" tires

    To simplify this, I will make a list of what is needed. 1) You will have to take off all the bilstein shocks and replace with Icon 2) All springs will have to be replaced with larger longer springs 3) You will have to get Koenig Wheels AND Spidertrax wheel spacers 4) Fender Mod 5) Party...

    2013 4runner Electrical Problems?

    Picked my 4runner up this morning. Seems to run fine. No leaks. Toyota covered everything including a rental car for the month. Ill report back if I have any problems but hoping all is good. Only thing I am curious about is if I should dump it now while its fixed and get a new one or just...
