Hey thanks for the info xnapajx! Actually, I have a few more questions if you don't mind. 1) Where did you get your HIDs? What brand? Are those 6000Ks? Looks cool! 2) Where did you get your TSX projectors? How do you know precisely where to mount them? In addition to aligned it left...

Hey TranceKrayz, you still around? I really like what you did with your lights. After everything was said and done, how much did your HID conversion cost? I'm still deciding if I should do a conversion similiar to yours or if I should just convert using the '06 projectors (I have an '03). If...

Is it just me or does the 4Runner ride extra smooth sometimes (well, more often than not)? Temperature seems to play a part, but I think there's something else to it. When it's colder than 30F, it's smooth, but not THAT smooth. I've noticed the optimal temperature range for an extra smooth...

Hey NViejeP, Where did you see the Valor exhaust tip for $25? I just stopped by the dealership a few hours ago and they were selling it for $61. I didn't buy it because I had remembered seeing it for around $35 on the internet. Can anyone here recommend an online store that they've had good...

I did a 30K service at a local Toyota dealership a couple of weeks ago and the service guy told me that I needed my spark plugs replaced. So I told him that I wanted to upgrade my spark plugs to platinum because they are supposed to last 100K miles and then he told me that the 4Runner can't...

I don't want to get too far off-topic, but I just want to make clear that I'm not complaining about my V6 4Runner. It was an honest question from someone who has never owned a truck before. This is my first Toyota and I'm quite happy with it, which is why I'm planning on installing a carputer...

Thanks for all the replies guys. Yeah, I'm happy with the 4Runner overall, but I just wasn't sure what to make of all the engine noise coming from the V6. Well, now that I know it's normal, I feel a lot better. Does anybody know if a performance exhaust like Borla would help drown out the...

Bluto, where do you get that stuff? I've never seen that before at my local auto parts store. After reading the description, it sounds like it I would have to use a combination of STP's Fuel Injector Cleaner and Dry Gas to get the same effect as one bottle of FP60.

If I'm correct, Dry Gas is supposed to improve the quality of your gas by removing any water that might be in it. It's made by STP who also makes fuel injectors cleaners and fuel system cleaners. I'll have to try it again and see if I get the same effect as I did the first time.

Just curious, but has anyone here logged a few hours behind the wheels of both the V6 and V8 (4th Gen)? I have a V6 and was just wondering if the V8 is as loud or quieter than the V6. I've read another thread explaining that it the fuel injectors making all that racket, so I'm guessing that...
