    Impusle buy: Pioneer AVIC-700BT

    Well, not really an impulse buy, more of a researched it for a bit with plans to get it down the road, but down the road turned into 3 days later. :eviltongue: Thought about getting the 900BT, but realized I don't even need the DVD player since all the videos I play are coming off my iPod...

    Lets see Your winter setup...

    You guys that live in places with little or no snow are so lucky, I miss my summers wheels already... :frown: I swapped out Jen-Neen's summer shoes for her winter boots today, better to be safe than sorry. And with the colder weather out here the last few days, the summers are useless anyways...

    Tinted headlights and taillights

    For a while I've been thinking about tinting my taillights, but I did not wanna spray them, and all the exterior tints films I've seen have been too dark for my taste. A local company here just started offering an exterior tint named 'iron' that is lighter than most exterior tints, so I figured...

    Anyone using an AFE intake?

    I just ordered an AFE intake for my X, which is the same as a TRD intake. Anyone using AFE or the TRD one? Thoughts on how well it works? I should've done this before hand, but it was a good price for me locally. Paid $330CDN tax in for the Stage 2 with the better filter (AFE # 75-81162), AFE...

    Got bored again, pulled out an idea I've been toying with...

    I've had this idea in my head for a while, and finally had some time to do it since I was rotating the tires already. Took longer and was a bit harder than I thought it would be. I have to redo it a few times since the paint will crack a few times before it actually holds. A buddy had to do...

    Wheel opinions please... might go a different route...

    Hi everyone... I'm ready to do something a bit different with my truck's style, and I think I'll start with the wheels. May end up using airbags in the future, but thats only one of the ideas I'm tossing around. Been thinking long and hard lately. I'm a big fan of the JDM VIP style of cars...

    Recruited?

    Looks like I may have recruited someone up here, hope he makes it on here. Not very often that I even see another X-Runner up here. Was cruising and a BSP ended up in front of me. He waved me to the next parking area and wanted to ask me about my lowering kit. He's seen my truck parked...

    got milk?

    Was driving home the other night, and it started snowing very lightly. Got home and looked at my truck and came up with an idea after taking a pic. The rest of the truck was perfectly clean. Here is the finished product out of Photoshop: :bird::rock::biggrin:

    Finally lowered... (C2C/Belltech)

    Well, its finally nice up here in Calgary, so I decided to pull the winters off and drop the X. Used the C2C kit up front, Belltech 2" blocks in the rear. Fastest suspension install that I have ever done on any vehicle, it was so easy. Hope it doesn't snow again, I guess I'll be using the...

    Spacers with stock rims?

    Hi guys, Just wondering what spacers I should run with my stock wheels. Don't plan on getting new wheels yet since I got these powdercoated and love the way they look with our truck. I just wanna space them out, so they sit more flush with the fenders. Anyone have any ideas as to what...

    Belltech lowering blocks?

    Going to order a C2C front drop kit (as soon as I can get back on the site). I found a local shop selling Belltech lowering block kits. They had this one in stock, will this work for my rear? Or do I need a different part #, they had a few there, but he said this should work...

    Trans is being replaced under warranty =)

    Been having a bad grind going into second, and it popping out of second as well. Finally brought the X to the dealership this morning at 7:15 before work. They called at 8:30 after the dealership shuttle dropped me off at work and told me they are going to replace the transmission under...

    Opinions on these wheels???

    Hey guys, Got a line on a set of 19" MRR wheels with tires for super cheap. Just wanna know what you guys think. Front will be 19x8.5, rear will be 19x9.5. Everyone here seems to like fat lips, but I like the concave wheel look more. All comments positive or negative are appreciated...
