    2005 4Runners Are Here!!!

    yeah, the power seats are "exempt" from the seat issues. . . .I checked www.fueleconomy.gov and found that the differences between the V6 and V8 2005 4Runners is paltry. . . .the price however isn't! it's funny, the main site says it's a 5-speed, and it obviously is, but when I try to...

    how's the ride? You loving it? I'm considering an '05 taco. . .i test drove one yesterday, an '05 4X2 TRD Off Road, it was nice, but I really wanted a 4x4 for the snow I might inherit if I leave texas. . .they 4x2 have NO traction control or anything, a litlte scarry. . .

    2005 4Runners Are Here!!!

    2005 V6 and 5 speed? are you guys SURE the V6 has a 5speed like the Tacoma? Because when building one on toyota.com, it only gives 4spd as an option for the 4wd V6. . . . what are the mpg ratings now between the V8 and V6? I might pop for another V8. . . .I'm considering an 2005 Tacoma, but...

    Supercharged...???

    14.7:1 is stochiometric people!! Under WOT, you want an A/F near 12.5:1 or so, highway cruising should be around 14:7-15:1. So the rod throwing was on the 4.7L engines? WOW! All they have to do is mess with the timing a bit, why would they pull a S/C off the market for that??

    newbie question: do wheel spacers or larger than stock wheels/tires affect safety?

    larger dubs, more weight people overlook this, but unless you're getting FORGED rims that are larger, going up a size will decrease your braking performance siginificantly. . .that, and the larger rotational mass will decrease your acceleration. Just something to consider. A good measure for...

    03 4Runner seat rattle

    have them keep on replacing your seat frame, it should EVENTUALLY go away. . .mine was fine for about 1.5years, and is only NOW recently acting up after they replaced the frame twice. . .it's a PITA, a deterrent for me if I ever considered trading this one in, but what are you gonna do. . .

    Is the 4.7L SC no more?

    just called no updates. . .we continue to wait. . .

    Is the 4.7L SC no more?

    So it sounds like basically with the new engine en route, they're not going to even bother offering the superchargers for the old 4.7L engines?? Dammit, I don't want to trade in my 4Runner, it barely has 16k miles on it!!! Those bastards HAD to add VVTi didn't they? 47k isn't that bad for...

    Maglight vs. Surefire

    SUREFIRE! Hands down, they do cost $$$$, and the replacement batteries and bulbs are $$$, but the intensity of the light is unbelieable, and uncompareable to anyothers on the market. . . IMO! Suneil

    HID Update

    WOW, amazing, that is a work of art, conGRATS! Wish they came stock with projectors, hell, the Solara's and Celica's have the option for projector HIDS, why the hell not the SUVs?? Annoying, real annoying. . .I was going to install HIDs without projectors, but I decided the glare might be a...

    my free exhaust system from Gibson Performance

    are they going to make headers??? What about the loudness? Hmmm, I'm going to wait and see how this develops.. . .the aftermarket is just picking up for us. . .I hope the 05 4 Runners won't be too different, which would slow the aftermarket down for us again. . .
