What have you done to your 2nd gen Tundra today?

Which squadrons are those + what beam pattern?

 

Got my @dirtydeeds 8" muffler this morning and got it installed, very happy with the outcome not sure if my video link works

Sooooo..... it's cold outside.... aaaaand my Optima is dying... it's doing the electrical gauge dance and its refusing to idle.... gotta do the SC400 low idle dance... which means I gotta hold both the brake and throttle while at a stop light... I might take it later today or tomorrow for a load test on both battery and alternator since the gauge moves when I shift in gear.l or D... or I may just pull it and drop it on my SC400 and take it to work.. idk yet... it's the battery for sure... lol

 

Maybe the tundra is different, but doesn't the battery only start the vehicle and the alternator keeps the vehicle running? Idk what an sc400 is.

 

SC400 is a type of Lexus powered by the famous 2JZ... and yes the battery helps start the car, but I'm fairly certain you still need some charge to keep the car running

 

I definitely know the 2jz. Lol
I knew it was in a Lexus but never paid attention because supra

Today I added a steering wheel emblem, a USB port, custom gps mount w/ hardwired garmin(not pictured), ultraguage and mount

 

Nah, Its the battery... I've stalled out at various points and times.. once the battery was replaced or recharged its good.. took her for a longer drive today and its been good... funny thing, I left the wife with the kids in the truck idling while I did a quick store run and on my way back I could hear the engine making a funny noise, like if it was running out of gas, which reminded me of a time the battery was low right before stalling... when I jumped in the battery gauge was between the 9 and middle still on... hit the gas and it jumped to the middle of the gauge... drove it home while watching the idle as it would wander below 500 before it stalled and I would hold the gas to 1k rpm after 10 minutes it started idling fine again on its own....
the SC400 it's my other car a V8 1uzfe.. it idles low every now and then and it trained me how to make it idle the hard way...

 

Du ha under seat storage container after vacuuming and brushing with a bristle attachment

 

ICS FAB cockpit. Will add more stuff later but solid piece of gear.

 

Got a pick of how that looks from further away? Really like the looks of that setup.

if you need another picture I can take it tomorrow when it's day time.

 

How bad is the install? I need to install
Mine lol

 

Time for the next project lol

 

straight forward. I already installed the RAM track before and my HU so it was quick work removing the dashboard panels.
just mock up everything before you bolt down the plate.

 

for those who asked about the clock. Nice and clean.

 

Daptized..So far I’m impressed!

Looks good! What is the mounting track that you have in front of the ICS?

EDIT: Saw in your build thread that it's a RAM mount track

 

Nice! All of a sudden she moves again right? Lol

 

Yep! I’d say it moves better than before larger tires!

 

did you order it online ? generic tune or custom at a shop ?

 

nice, I got mine done in person by Dustin up in Grand Junction... I remember they closed down Red mountain pass as I was going over it...

I guess you could say custom for specific ECU’s? Either way I just put about 40 miles on it and WOW! Really is as advertised!

 

Found a key blade that's easier than finding techstream!

You do need to cut up a key or get a duplicate transponder. I sacrificed my valet key. Then move over your fob internals. And then hope you get a cool Home Depot worker who'll cut a key that isn't sold by them.

Some more pictures :

Slot for the transponder. I used some glue to hold it in place.

The pieces :

 

Hell yeah Cleveland represent!

 

Welp... Its raining in the Bay area, so I went for the carwash special to work today, and ended up drifting on an off ramp, damn near the entire length... Noticed 2 cars had ran into the wall, I decided to slow waaay down and I managed to hit an oil slick and quickly went sideways... thankfully didn't hit nothing... I usually bitch about the nannies, but today I'm actually very grateful the nannies saved my bacon from going into the wall... and YES, I did bring an extra set of pants though, really needed them today... LOL

 

Ya hooking up a 50" screen on that sucker, hahaha.

How does that old grille come off? Does this fasten on with screws or???
