Irish Newbie...........
Hi folks,
Just joined the forum, and Im well impressed. So much information.
A little about me, I'm from Ireland, so if there is any other Irish guys or gals out there let me know.
My rig is a 1998 Hilux Surf 3.0td intercooler auto Japanese import.
Pretty stock at the moment, but I put my first mod on the other day.... Clear bumper lights. Cleans up the front end to end.
Other stuff to follow includes hood guard, sunroof wind guard, hopefully a Jaos Bull-Bar. +2" coil springs. A/T cooler, and other stuff as I think of it.
One thing I have done is get a small rear view camera to hook up to the screen I have in the dash for reversing...(I admit I'm a gadget freek!!
)Cheers
Ciaran

First off... Welcome to the Forum!
There're a boatload of helpful folks here...
2nd off... I think that we're gonna need a picture or two of that camera/monitor setup. That sounds like a good bit of fun!

Ciaran,
Welcome to the forum. Very cool to have non-North American members. As others have said, pics are a must, esp the engine.
Looks like you're having some probs posting the pics. Why dont you email me three to bobkim@4runners.org and i'll host those for you. I'll even make you an avatar.
By the way, how do you pronounce your name (phonetically)?
