    Interest in Custom built 4th gen V8 4.7 Doug Thorley Headers

    I saw a few pages back they mentioned 35 torque, but never mentioned it with any proof, or RPM range. They never did discuss HP either.

    I highly doubt it, but has anyone dyno'd the a V8 with headers installed? or done a before and after 0-60?

    Very cool that these are finally on the market. I sold my t4r after both my manifolds cracked and Toyota quotes me 5000 to repair them. Traded the truck in on a 2013 Tacoma Limited but miss the V8 everyday.

    2014 4Runner

    I came from an 05 V8 4runner to a 2011 Tacoma. I feel the same way, the 4.0L V6 is a dog IMO.

    SR5 vs. SR5 Premium

    What is the difference between the non premium stereo and the premium? Aren't both 8 speakers?

    A_S_R's Build Thread

    Ark, have you looked into a RAS Spacer at all? I formerly had a 2004 V8 with coils. I then switched to a 2011 Tacoma, but hate the truck more and more. I miss the silky smooth V8, quiet cabin and smooth ride. I do tow a small trailer, but still like a good ride, so maxing out the RAS to...

    King Offroad shocks

    Please lord do not add spacers to King coilovers. King Coil's are top of the line. I would give them a crank up and call it a day. Any pictures of your setup?

    Poll: To Air Down, or Not to Air Down, and WHY

    +1. The difference airing down, even 10psi, is amazing. When i ran 285/75/16's on 7" wide rims (narrow for 285's). I would air down to 8psi and it was absurd how much traction I had over ~40psi regular pressure.

    Plush Mid Travel suspension questions

    I checked out all the fox stuff on allpro's website, seems to be a great price. $1350 for a basic full kit is right there with the Radflo or Toytec ultimate. Do you have any info on the fox setups? 5 google searches and 2 searches on here(I think it's broken) has yeilded no info on fox setups...

    Plush Mid Travel suspension questions

    Hi All, Well after a few years away, I find myself missing my old V8 T4R. I sold my 2004 v8 with a 2.5/1.5 DS lift a few years back for a great car, a 2012 VW GLI. I loved the GLI but needed a truck, so I sadly sold it and bought my current vehicle, a 2011 Tacoma TRD Sport. The truck is a...

    spacer vs coilover

    Seems as though he answered his own question while welcoming himself to the site. Seems rather efficient if you ask me.

    Thinking about getting a used 4Runner - talk me in/out of it

    I have owned many a car and many a truck all built for racing or offroad. I had a 2004 V8 4Runner, and sold it to buy a nice shiney new VW Jetta GLI. Worst decision I have ever made. I miss that truck daily, and am currently attempting to sell my year old VW to buy another one. The V8 is a...

    I sold my 2004 V8 after both sides cracked. I was quoted $3500 Canadian ($800 per manifold) to replace them. Selling the truck was a terrible mistake. It is now a year later, and I own a 2012 VW GLI and a 1992 4Runner. I am debating selling both to buy another 06+ 4runner V8.

    1" lift rear coils

    Thanks for the input BV, but I would like to keep it as low as possible. A little trimming never hurt anyone. A member on yotatech did 33x10.5's with a 1.5" lift and no rubbing or cutting.
