Haven't even used them yet lol i'll check back when I do but I have heard good things from a few others using them

It was nice out so I threw them in and let the battery get a good charge

I have a seized caliper so its still in the garage and with a little more snow coming, I have a 4runner to drive all winter

My buddy uses those lights on his 98 Cherokee, they work really well, almost as well as HID's honestly.

Yea they are actually on a jeep oriented site, also when I first heard of someone running these on their supra they provided a link to a jeep forum in which they had left good reviews on them

not cheap for just 2 headlights but a good alternative to hid's plus they drop right in with no modification so its easy

they are alot brighter compaired to my normal headlights and fog light combo

only bad thing I can say is for some reason they don't allow me to run my fogs if I hit the fog light switch the high beams come on so I guess i'll have to do the fog light mod most do anyway (allows you to run the fog lights even if the headlights or running lights are not on)

here is a video since I don't feel like my pics from my phone are doing them justice (skip to about 11:20 our lights don't have an complicated install lol)

Don't use tst as much as I use to but a few things have changed

Front and rear suspension poly bushing are now installed along with the shifter bushings what a difference


Also my battery started to crap out on me, was getting real slow cranks every time I went to drive the car only 4 years old but it probably doesn't help that it was stone dead a hand full of times this past winter

So I picked up one of these wanted to go with an agm type of battery (got it for even less than the site displayed because someone had an old price up in the store so they honored that price plus I have one of their point cards )


Got a few things in last week (I guess at some point i'll push my 7m a little more)

-walbro fuel pump
-fuel damnpener bypass hose
-aeromotive afpr kit
-3inch cone filter for my lex afm
and a little something else will be here next week or early the following

Ok so the fuel system and such has been upgraded and the car is feeling great boosting to 15/16 psi on the 57 trim ct26

RC 550cc injectors and clips
walbro fuel pump
12v mod
lexus afm
safc
mk4 motor mounts
wideband stopped working and is now fixed
did a new clutch master and slave cylinder when getting the other issue fixed





I like how he used another line than what I supplied from the dm kit this way it was more flexible and not over top of the alternator



Finished up at Gonzy Tuning over in Plainsfield, if anyone is in the northeast area I would recommend him my car was started on the night it came up and was only there a total of 7 days and I was able to drive it home with no issues about 85 miles


Also what I would consider a big event is taking place in my life, home ownership! (looks like a mk4 supra will have to wait another year or two)

Had a sticker covering up where my wiper use to be and finally put something there




Also, five years after the rebuild I got on one of these mustang things
I believe the car did well for the things that have been done to it especially since I went from sitting in traffic on 295 because a vw caught fire straight onto the dyno... curious to see what a dynojet reads since the mustang readings supposedly underrate the wheel power

Ohh no problems with my numbers just hear they read less and even while there the guys said said the same... checking it out on google looks like there can be anywhere from a 8-12% difference because of the way they measure/calculate it

No biggie made more then I though and the car is fun to drive, just kind of want both numbers, wish there was an easy way to know the crank power other then guesstimate

Honestly it just makes me happy my 7M is still kicking and not eating up head gaskets and coolant

Don't frequent this forum as much it has gotten quiet over the years...

Sill had a couple old hoses in the engine bay and since I got one of those ebay silicone hose kits which is actually pretty nice plus the 2 hoses off the brake booster are discontinued

But these bitches were solid and were stubborn as hell lol I had to split them to get them off with the exception of the turbo coolant hose that one wasn't bad


Seen a nice pic of my car floating around the net from a cars and coffee


Just had a bunch of maintenance done to my 4Runner and its driving like new

But this is finally done! (well except for that one part of the driveway which was done on settlement day and I put my initials in the semi wet cement lol)
