Smile 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 I see you wandered over from the dark side (hilux surf) you can pretty much guarantee you'll get some answers here!! So where in Ireland are you located? I land in Rosslare on the 7th of June and I am driving up towards Galway. You in there anywhere.. would love to visit some Forum members!

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)?

Bob
