Alright, about to go pick up my first 4Runner. Previously an avid member of NASIOC with my WRX and in the interim drove a 98 Tacoma.
I'm about to purchase a 2wd 2001 4Runner Sport (4WD was my preference, but I live in SoCal now and finding a 4x4 at a good price is tough). Gladly the most offroading I do it gravel and dirt roads when camping :cowboy:.
Now, I got the modding bug again and need some advice. With my WRX I had hawk hps pads, brembo slotted rotors, ss brake lines and performance fluid. Loved it for track days and fun street performance. With the 4Runner I don't need that kind of high speed performance, but I would like to improve the stopping power and durability of my brakes without a BBK, unless there are low cost options for upgrades (I hear highlander kits). Any suggestions for rotors, pads, etc?
- I don't do much towing.
Per my new member status: Pics soon to come, along with plenty of planned mods.
