1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

I'm pretty sure they are the FN FX pro wheels https://www.fnwheels.com/store/product/fn-wheels-fx-pro/

When I was doing way too much research, I think the FN are an inch wider, but still lighter than the ones from Toyota. Don't know if if it matters to you, but the Toyota ones don't recommend over a 265 wide tire.

 

I've had really good luck with centric rotors since my mechanic roommate recommended them to me years ago. He'd used them for years on all customer cars.

 

Mine does that too, I think it's just because the window guides aren't super tight and if it's only halfway down the window isn't being supported at the top.

 

Okay cool. The stupid toyota website is saying "these do not fit your 2001 tundra" I'm like ummm okay? I have 17 inch rubber so why tf does it matter

 

4runner rims won’t fit without rub a dub flub or spacer. They look cool, but not made for Tundra.

 

Nearly all 16+inch 4runner wheels will fit FGT fine with no need for spacers or rubbing...the tires you put on them are a different story depending on size.

 

Toyota wants us to stick to 16, I'm running 17 4runner trail rims with no problem. I do have spacers, but not because I need, them it's because I like how they look

 

Yea I'm running p26570r17 so i dont get what I'm missing here, and I'm not close to rubbing

 

@Tundra2 I don't see how those injectors could hurt your MPG that much. Maybe ease off the pedal for one tank and see what happens? I'm curious.

After that video was shared I've pretty much written off the 12 hole injectors for now. It does seem like they are a good value from a pricing perspective though. If my OEM injectors ever failed I would consider these but wouldn't expect any performance gains. I would hope MPG didn't drop either.

Just finished your video. Interesting. So according to that we've been had! Schemed! Bamboozled!

Now, one thing they mentioned that I was curious about myself. I've noticed that my engine is much warmer now than what I remembered. I'll give it some more time. Maybe the extra power im feeling is just because they were new injectors.

Still didn't answer my flowrate question.

 

I believe I read in this thread that they didn't find any noticeable difference in flowrate. I don't think you've necessarily been bamboozled. At 300K miles it may have been a good idea to replace yours anyways. I think it just shows there isn't any measurable gain with 12 holes over 4.

From your link. May be a beneficial watch for others.

 

Not surprised by those findings. A good video nonetheless but just shows the less restrictive filters are gonna yield higher performance yet will lead to more debris in your engine.

 

I've purchased exactly 1 K&N filter after washing and cleaning it twice I threw it out and bought a $5 paper filter.

The Tundra had one when I bought it, did the same thing.

 

Don't tell that to my FGT.

 

Drove her easy on the way home, and easy on the way back to work. Petrol on the way home.

100.6 miles at ¾ of a tank per gas guage on the DOT.

Maybe I was just enjoying the smiles.

 

Pic?

 

WTF WALMART? Got rid of regular dex/merc? Nevrermind were gucci

 

Might be out. Also, clean your camera lens.

 

Can you say cluster fuck?

 

Some might say organized chaos

 

Not I. I'm just clumsy enough to hit my knees on every available surface.

 

80 degrees at 8pm but what's a Friday night without a fire and beer.

 

That does look nice. I'm currently inside a hot ass building with 400°C molds all around with no fans blowing because they don't want to stir "the rona." 90% humidity

Jealous.

 

Just a fyi folks. Never under estimate the stupidity of pucks. Doint a atf drain and fill, pouring all 4 quarts in and my funnel somehow is letting a shit ton of atf fluid past the fill nozzle. Spilled all over the ground lol. A simple 4 quart exact dump turned into having to tediously drain out the right amount lololol

 

You have to pour slow.

 

@Pucks18

I have never done a full drain/fill. I'm assuming you're filling from the dipstick tube? Trying to pour all the fluid in that little tube at once is over kill by my thinkings.

@empty_lord is correct. Slow is the way to go. By my thinkings.

@FirstGenVol I finally read most of the injector link you posted earlier. That turned into a real pissing contest.

 

Also, anyone ever experience this issue? U break loose a drain bolt, it start to easily unscrew, then its super hard to unscrew so u have to use your wrench, then its easy again? Kinda had me worried

 

Get one of these guys. Fits right in the dipstick tube and holds a quart.
