Since my belt did not look very old, I figured I could just go on in and change the water pump, etc. So removing intercooler and all peripheral things...

    I am used to rotating spare in 80 series according to FSM pattern. I now have a JDM set of wheels, with no spare. Trying to determine, is it a bad idea to drive on a spare that was not in rotation? I have a set of five originals, and thinking I should just buy tires for them if I can’t get a...

    Size matters?

    Newbie apologies, thanks for your patience! I have just acquired 97 LX450 with original wheels and I’m looking to lift and go up to 35s. My friend was asking about going to wheels larger than 16, and whether or not performance (on road) would be better with less rubber flex, etc. Is there a...
