My new 4runner!

[stoker8]

Here's my two Toyota's!

Had the Supra for almost 5 years and couldn't be more pleased so I bought another Toyota.

I really REALLY like it! V8 4X4 Sport Edition.

Has 500 miles, when should I go synthetic? The dealer says first oil change is at 5000miles, but with a new engine shoudln't we change it at 500 or 1000? Thanks.

Oh what a feeling?? haha.

 

[stoker8]

thx.

By looking at your avatars it looks like you guys use it for what it was designed for (off road use). I got it to throw windsurfing gear and scuba gear in it but I may have to find some mud pits around here and see what it can do. That ought to be fun!

I have a V6 sport, and changed my factory fill at 542 and sent to Blackstone Labs for used oil analysis. I used Castrol 5w-30 for this change due to the short interval that I'm using for break in. I'm changing again at 1542. I'll have to see how the oil analysis' go before I cut over to Royal Purple Racing 21.

Nice z06 ya got there! Did it come with Mobil1 in it brand new? I heard it doesn't really make much difference when you go synthetic. They used to say break it in on dino but I hear that it isn't necessary. I think I'll change mine this weekend.

Thanks and let us know how the UOA goes.

Nice cars! The guy who runs the chinese restaraunt I frequent has a beautiful red Turbo Supra - I get jealous every time I pick up dinner there Has 320 hp from the factory right? What year did they stop making them?

Will do on the UOA. Did come with Mobil 1 from the factory. The only reason I'm running dino is because of the short OCI during the break in period. Don't want to spend ~$8 a quart to drain it in 1500 miles. I only do that when I attend HPDE events in the Z06.

Good move!

Yep, you done the right thing...looks good! Can't go wrong with a second Toyota...ask me!!

Nice Supra, I want one. Oh yeah, nice 4runner also.

 

[stoker8]

Thanks. Actually, I wanted a silver one but this one had everything on it I wanted and was on the lot. Not a bad color!

Hi Greg! You in FL? I'm from Orlando. In Houston now (first time out of FL) and I miss home bad!

320 from the factory. this one has over twice that (~750hp). They stopped importing them from Japan in 1998. I believe they stopped making the Japanese version about a year ago.

Nice truck! Oh yeah, and what a nice looking Supra you have there. That is one great looking sports car. Why would Toyota stop producing them? Great fleet of vehicles you got there!

750 hp? :eek2: I'd be happy with "just" 400 in the upcoming C6. I'm in Orlando too - if your Supra gets homesick I can keep it in my garage for you :naughty:

 

[stoker8]

The C6 is going to be a nice ride!

Here is a pic after I finished the T78 upgrade about 1.5 years ago. Hope nobody minds the Supra pics. I think the 4runner is pretty darn spiffy and I may add a couple more pics of it also. The Supra is just an amazing car. Drives just like it did when it was bone stock, just a lot faster.
