I hate to tell you this, but they messed up at the factory and installed your steering wheel on the wrong side...!! :lol:

Thanks for the welcome guys. I wish we got the Tacoma over here. I am really interested in looking to fit the front end off one of your 01-04 Tacomas in the future.
The mods you guys can make are insane compared to our ridiculous modification laws.:doah:

PLEASE- one of you Ginny's made over 550rwhp on a 3rz as a daily driver... He used to be here all time... I believe he went by the name of AussieHilux...
Point is, if you want it laws are only inconviences... but hey you at least have a v-8 the only v-8 here I believe, that's crazy by itself...

Happy to see you aboard- and kick us down some tech on that motor, so maybe one of us a can copy you!

Yeh mate there is a lot of hidden engine mods around over here. Its more the lift and tyre size they crack down on.

I am surprised to hear that there arent too many Lexus 8s getting around on here. Though that may have more to do with the fact you guys have had 6 cylinder options a lot longer than we have. I would be happy to pass on info on the swap in my opinion its a great motor and works really well in the vehicle.

Rugged lookin truck you got there Boof. I like the snorkel. Do you get in deep enough for it to get a workout?

 

[boof]

No mate havent had it deep enough to need the snorkel height yet. I mainly installed it to get the air intake higher on dusty roads. The water angle is just a bonus.
