Hey guys!
I have a build going on a couple other forums, but seeing as how I have been visiting here so much I thought I would transfer one over here as well. Tons of great ideas floating around this site, hopefully I can inspire someone else as well.
In the beginning: I have been looking to get a 3rd gen T4R for some time. I recently decided to post my 95 Toyota Pickup up for sale on a whim and see the kind of interest it attracted. To my surprise it was sold for full asking price only a few days later, which lead me to my new 98 T4R.
A photo of the old rig:
And the new one:
I love the increase in power from the 3.0L to the 3.4L!! I was hoping for a limited with the E-Locker but this will suffice. Plus it has factory 4.30 gears so swapping an elocker wont be too bad. I even like the colour, its going to look BA with my new wheels.
