What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

Added a little car mount for the phone. Looks like it should do the job just fine. Had great reviews on amazon.

Went and changed the Air filters today. Both were nasty. Cabin filter had leaves and stuff, TRD air filter was all dusted and filthy, took it out and put a FRAM in there. Don't forget to check yours once in a while :) also maybe placebo effect but I noticed a sweeter sound from the engine !
 
Replaced my map light and dome light

Order the lights from [MENTION=12905]XenonDepot[/MENTION]. Thanks to [MENTION=129593]MTN4RNR[/MENTION] for telling me which lights to order and helped me figure out how to install the lights. The lights are much brighter now after installing the LED's.

Recently tinted the fronts (35) and windshield (70)...also swapped the Coopers over from my old set of wheels.

It's on it's way, with about 340 on the odometer.

Selling my JK and buying a 4runner....



cannot agree w/ you more!


I have to say I traded in my TJ wrangler for an FJ Cruiser. I loved that jeep, but there was something about the FJ that I loved. It was a great truck until hurricane sandy killed it. Then I got the Tacoma which was awesome and eventually traded it for my new 4R. Couldn't be happier, this is the best Toyota truck I've ever owned ( I also drove a supercharged tundra as a work truck). Comfort and reliability are hands down top notch.

Yet, I will always miss my TJ, it's so much harder to take the doors off the 4Runner.
 
I one a street drag today! :wtf:

Now, I used to drive like a crazy person , these days I take it easy, but tonight......

See, there's this 1/4 mile stretch of road that turns into 1 lane directly after my freeway exit. People are always puling into the right lane and racing ahead to get over in time, which is fine. Tonight some kid in a 90's clapped out Integra decided he wanted to do just that. Well, I was by myself and figured what the hell- as soon as I heard his DC Sport type parts begin to make lots of rice-noise I hammered it home.

Surprisingly, we were door handle to door handle until he hit 3rd gear and started to creep up on me. Thing is, my friend ran out of road.

I won.:naughty:

As he pulled in behind me, I gave him the old "hazard light salute" (tradition in a street race, lol) and when he took his exit he gave be a double toot.

Good times, good times. I'll never complain this thing is slow again, lol.

I did the same thing with my buddy in his tuned 2016 WRX. From a stop light up until about 45 MPH we were almost neck and neck, then he started to pull away. I'm positive that's mostly due to him still learning to get the perfect shift in his car, as he should be in the 5 second range 0-60. I don't even try anymore, as he's now stage 2 with intake and full catless turboback exhaust. It sure was a lot of fun though!

Hmmm now for some 4.57 gears and the UCONN EMS whenever that comes out, if not the full S/C

Your buddy definitely sucks at driving hahah.

As far as what I did.... I may have left my sunroof open last night. Still in bed and its not currently raining, so if I did, any "damage" is done. Definitely don't want to check even though I am 99.9% sure I didn't leave it open.

edit: didn't leave it open.

Is he from the NEOSOC Facebook group? Poor showing with that car. ;) My 2002 WRX wagon was nailing slow V8s all the time when barely more than stock.

What did I do today? Making a list of all the mods I want to do when my 4Runner gets here! I know that list will change umpteen times by the time it gets here, but I gotta do something!

Hahaha he's doing much better now, think his best is 5.1 seconds so far. Yep he's on the NEOSOC FB group. Are you going to the meet in Valley View today? I'll probably be there.
