I just "Winterized" my car.



California style... new wiper blades. All three of them! (Yes, I still have my rear wiper and it works great.)

Z is about to go into storage mode. Took out intake filter to clean, took out passenger seat to store inside the home and also clean up underneath. Going to store the battery in the passenger area on top of some towels. Going to also clay and wax it before ordering a good outdoor cover. Recently purchased a 5th gen 4runner for the New England winters. Before the Z i had a 3rd gen 4runner which i loved. Anyways here is the new to me winter beater! Oh and black friday i picked up V2 sides and front along with TS styled rear diffuser. once late winter/early spring comes I'll send it to the shop to get it squared away!

Thanks but no, just playing with my photo manager. The gold "highlights" are just from the late afternoon sun... bent by the pic software, not ChromaFlair.

I got almost all the wiring done. Gotta solder 4 wires, reroute a ground, bunch up the wires, and then connect everything. Finished the gauge pod. Door cards going in tomo, now that they are dry.

If you haven't already pulled the trigger on the cover, I would highly recommend the NOAH. A little pricey compared to others, but the quality is great.

That pic looks so cool! I first thought that you had redone the entire paint color "Silver Streak" or something, but it sure looks unique anyway.

Does anyone know if Z1 or anyone else sells these silicone pipes separately? I'd like to extend my Injen intakes into my front bumper. I can't seem to find them anywhere.

The longer the tubing, the more narrow the tubing, the more bends and the more dramatic the bends, the harder your engine will need to work in order to draw in air thus YOU WILL LOSE POWER. I advise against extending your pipes but that's not an answer to your question.

Not much of a difference at all unless your super duper HR can defy logic, math and science. Info removed.

I found this place while searching a while back. http://www.siliconeintakes.com/ They seem to have just about every configuration if you want to make something custom.

Pretty cool photo there. How long did it take you to drop the rear subframe complete like that?
