thank you, ill try and get a pic tomorrow or friday of it now that its tinted.

my vent visors (in-channel) dont come until next tuesday but it looks MUCH better now that it is tinted up.

one question though, i realize gas is expensive right now, but i still got the v8 because i was always told as a kid, go ahead and get the options that you CANT CHANGE that you want. i test drove the v6 and it was peppy, but NOTHING like the v8.

plus, its really not THAT much worse on gas, i bet with a trueflow filter and some better flowing exhaust, you might equal the fuel consumption ratings of the v6.

Your 02 is pretty sweet. I got a 99' about 2 months ago. Runs like a charm. Of course my mom is driving it right now since i dont have my license yet. -_-
Does anyone know if the 3.4 L v6 used in the 99 4runners had hemi or semi hemispherical heads because the spark plugs are located directly in the middle of the heads like a hemi?

hey thanks man, you better get a job so you can pay for modifications as soon as you get it!

about your question, do a search, and if that doesnt work post up in the newbie section. i dont care about you hijacking the thread but if you did it to other people they might get e-tough on you. good luck with your runner
