    Quickest/Fastest 1GR Trucks - 1/4 mile

    I've got traction bars and all, just the tires wont hook, so I need to slow down on the launch. I'm consistently under .20 on the launch but spin the tires forever. My home track is Heartland park which the summer nationals just came thru the week before I ran last so I can't really blame the track!

    Push it to the Limit AutoX + Scion FR-S day

    For the one who asked about the Scion prices - they are required by Scion to sell them for sticker, no more, no less. Every new scion sold has the sales invoice checked by no fewer than 3 employees of Scion. They decided when they came out with that make several years ago they wanted anyone...

    Quickest/Fastest 1GR Trucks - 1/4 mile

    I can't get anywhere near others times it seems, but I am consistently in the 102+ mph which seems very high for a low 14 second car based on everything I see. Best so far is a 14.053 at 102.63mph. If I can ever get the launch down I can easily be in the 13's as my best 60' time is 2.275 :(

    Voltmeter install help

    I put mine one in my truck as well. I had a battery go bad on me more than once and it's nice to have a heads up. I also had an extra "hole" to fill in my pillar pod so I was cheap and just jumped hooked onto the wires that ran to the boost gauge. Call me lazy but it works :-)

    X-Runner Dragstrip Traction Solutions

    I've had mine at the track a few times now where I work part time. We do have one of the better tracks in the country, so that may have a little to do with my overall better "stick." My best 60' on street tires was 2.284 and that is still pretty much sliding into the higher end of second gear...

    Did I mention I've only owned toyotas (other than a 66 mustang) and my dad is a 31 year toyota master mechanic and parts salesman now? That comes in handy occasionally!

    I've been around for a few months, but finally got around to getting my profile set up and posting a few things. I've already gotten lots of info from here, and would like to say thanks to everyone who runs the site as it makes researching very easy!

    GoPro HD Hero2 Anyone?

    We've had about a half dozen of them running around the track days on the streetbikes. The first ones are great, and the 2's are even better. I've got videos of all kinds of cool track stuff, and even one when I made my first passs on the drag strip in the X. I just know now they don't care for...

    Wide Band question

    At this point I know the fuel pump has not been upgraded as I located the previous owner (a former forum member himself) and he actually bought one but never installed it. I am not 100% sure, but i'm guessing the the injectors haven't been upgraded either. Obviously it's still a work in...

    Wide Band question

    It already has underdrive pulleys as well, so I don't think I plan on doing any other motor modifications. I was just wanting to make sure the fuel pump would keep up under hard acceleration more than anything.

    Check Engine Light override?

    I will double check later this week, but I was pretty sure they must be the older generation with only 2 o2 sensors. I know one of them had a block off in it, and the other one was installed, leaving one zip tied to an aftermarket harness of some type. Either way I'm going to have to crawl under...

    Check Engine Light override?

    The headers delete some of the o2 sensors. It's running fine as I had the emissions checked to see if it was running rich or lean due to that. What I would need short of drilling and tapping another set of holes for the o2 sensors is something that bypasses that reading. Anyone out there have...

    Check Engine Light override?

    I've had the check engine light on since I bought my Xrunner and have pulled the same codes over and over. Its because it doesn't have all the O2 sensors installed with the DTLT headers. Anyone know of how to remedy this? I know its running fine, it's just annoying to have the dash light on all...

    Wide Band question

    When I purchased my truck 95% of the work was done by the previous owner. I've got an autometer cobalt boost gauge, but an empty second "hole" in my dual pillar pod. I've been told by more than one person a good idea would be a wide band gauge. I have looked at several but I'm not sure which one...

    New XRunner (new to me at least..)

    Sorry, I haven't been on in a month or two. I need to get my post count up so that I can get some pictures up soon. I was able to get a few passed in at the drag strip a month or so ago and pulled a 14.02 at 102mph. If I had decent tires I would probably have been mid, maybe low 13's as the...

    O2 Sensor Issues

    At this point I understand what you're saying, but have no idea what i'm looking for. I will have to get a few pictures up once I can post them and see if that helps. I finally got the change to crawl under it yesterday for the first time, and I wasn't really sure what I was looking for as far...

    New XRunner (new to me at least..)

    I will update my info soon, hopefully.... No plans except to get a trailer hitch installed, and install a second gauge in the pillar mount for the time being. The previous owner did just fine for me on the other goodies!

    New XRunner (new to me at least..)

    Picked up an 05 earlier this month and have been working through all the aftermarket accessories trying to figure out what I have so far. It was kinda like Christmas as I purchased it from a non Toyota dealer who had no idea what they had. I'm pretty sure it was another member of this forum's...
