    Is it possible to brick ECU from a bad fuse?

    Hey all, So I have had an EFI fuse continuously blow out every 2-3 miles recently. I was ALMOST home when it blew and I put a 25 amp fuse in it as a replacement to make it home. (It’s a 7.5 amp and I had spares but had ran out from constantly blowing them). After I started the car up, all the...

    Looking for TRUE 1GR-FE Information

    Well I can gladly, confirm 6300 rpm limiter for about 20,000 miles is doing great, with a total of 140,000 miles on the 4.0L V6. A/F is also down to 13, sometimes I'll reflash and run a 12.2 but it varies.

    Looking for TRUE 1GR-FE Information

    I hear information like that but then I hear stock 3.5V6 Taco owners on there forums raising there rev limiters to 6500 and goin ham for 30000+ miles and not having issues? Quite confusing.

    Looking for TRUE 1GR-FE Information

    Hey All, So I am in the process of making my 400 N/ABHP 1GR-FE T4R a mere 450-500HP and of course that involves tuning. I know old time tuning methods but computers and tables are all so new to me. I was messing around with the base ignition table, as well as the intake and exhaust valve...

    Exhaust cam gears with 3° retard

    Installation Instructions? I am very interested in the results as well as the installation process before I purchase these. Does anybody know if there is a public access video or tutorial that someone can share with me? I have found nothing. This post is really the only information about these...

    •HELP• Installing Manual Gauges

    I’m convinced! I think after reading all of these comments I’ve become convinced to switch over. Gauges aren’t really my thing so I’m sorry if I’ve used the wrong terms (mechanical vs electrical). I’m glad y’all got my point and gave me such useful information and advise. I knew the oil and...

    •HELP• Installing Manual Gauges

    Yes hahaha but I meant, what does it offer. I’m assuming it’s an electronic screen connected to my obd that monitors what my cars computer reads. Personally, I’m in the process of trying to make my T4R look like a race car. Really the gauges are an atheistic.

    Fuel Pressure gauge / testing

    Great post! I was wondering if this could be applied to add a permanent fuel pressure gauge?

    Anyone seen this yet? Procharger superchager

    Yes! I’ve been looking into these for a while. For a long time they had nothing and then Magnuson super chargers appeared. That was really only the big power gains you could buy, working only around 5psi for an easy 80 to 120 go gain depending on the tuner and your wheels / lift. It was...

    Valve Cover Gasket / Spark Plug Gasket Repacement

    That picture speaks for itself. I have 113 thousand miles and my 5th gen custom SR5 is still tearing up mud. Love it.

    WTF is this underneath?

    Could have something to do with your exhaust maybe? I know it’s not on the same side but what else is back there?

    Has anyone removed the chrome bumper trim on a Limited?

    I have plasti dipped a lot of my car exactly for this reason as well as removed my front bumper. Both are easy but relatively tedious. For plasti dipping, it’s nice if you mess up because you can tape off and re spray like you said. It’s a lot cheaper option and personally, I like the Matte...

    2017 4Runner won’t start unless I disconnect battery first

    Anything is possible! The security device you described could be the case. I don’t have much of an answer for you (sorry), I just want to make sure that you double checked all ur cables and wires so your not grounding out your battery. That would be my suggestion. If your not sure what I mean...

    cant clear codes

    Just a guess! Hi! I’m sorry to hear about your problem and I am no certified mechanic by any means but to me, it sounds like an air / exhaust problem. I have done a lot to my intake and my entire intake manifold is custom built. Typically, your car cannot start without a MAF sensor. I believe I...

    Rust and leaking on 5th limited

    You’re not alone! You are not alone and many other people have this issue, although I can’t say that I have. I have a 2015 custom built SR5 but my frame and transfer case are stock. I have taken my baby through hell and back, through water puddles, thick mud, thin mud, sand, and even up...
