I requested a Toyota car section and was directed to General Tech. 🤷‍♂️ I'd follow your Tercel build!

Fair enough

I am a Toyota nut. I have a few vehicles from a few sections and others that don't have a good section. The forums I used to frequent for my Toyota cars have died. I bet there are a few others who are in similar situations. Is a Toyota(or Lexus or Scion etc) car tech section something anybody...

I don't think shows are your thing, but it's about damn time a Trail Tailor build was featured at SEMA. You've been at that level for a while.

The 4runner is the sportier of the two- smaller, noisier, nimbler, more Rev-happy, and has a removable top. The 4runner also gets 6 more mpg on average. If I had...

Any significant driving impressions with the step up to 17s? I'm on 15s, and been thinking of going up to 16s for to accommodate a future Tundra brake mod but retain the most sidewall. The selection of tires stepping up to 17s is significant though.

I can agree with all that

My two cents- The LS is probably the most common swap option. It has the most support & is the most prevalent engine making it the easiest to install and operate/maintain. The 5VZ is smaller and all it's power comes higher in the powerband. You're going to be spinning that engine/trans higher...

From the sticker on the hatch glass, it looks like @ACC Toyota might have seen this rig at one point.
