1st hello!!!!!


Hey bro. Welcome to the forum. Is that a SunFire Red Pearl 4Runner or just red?

I see your pic is upside down. Besides using Windows to rotate it (right-click rotate in Win7) I suggest Imageshack.us if you aren't using a hosting site already. Hosting your pics is better for the site (less storage and CPU cycles) and is much easier to re-post.

Look forward to the updates.

Perhaps it's the Australian model?

So for taking so long to update! Life has been pretty crazy and I've been busy in the shop upgrading! Soon I'll be getting tires for winter!
