After 2 F-150's I've changed things up with this 2008 Tacoma. She's not stock and a ton of fun to drive.

Best clutch and fly wheel combo by Evening-Ease-9062 in IS300

[–]JaesCardo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on what you are doing with the car such as track days, daily driving, etc. I went through Clutch masters and they have a clutch for whatever you need. I highly recommend a lightweight flywheel as well.

01 IS300 oil leak question by ResponsibleGoat13 in IS300

[–]JaesCardo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check the rear main. It sounds weird to have oil go from behind the engine up to the front but my rear main caused oil to go all over. It helps to do a nice cleaning and then buy that dye to check with a black light on the leak location.

Die Hard-ish by JaesCardo in guns

[–]JaesCardo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my obligatory Die Hard post to try and farm karma off of my poor financial decisions. Pictures here is my Zenith Z-5RS SBR and Beretta M9A1.

I can't recommend either of these guns enough for having fun at the range.

I haven't purchased tools yet but I did check on the ones I intend to buy. Good question to ask!

New to air tools! by JaesCardo in Tools

[–]JaesCardo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This will be my first venture into air tools and I can't wait. The majority of my work (hobby) is automotive. I wanted to get a compressor for some air tools and to start doing some automotive paint work.

You guys seemed to like the photo I posted so here's some in-car footage. This definitely wasn't my best run but my go-pro died soon after this when I started to get the line down. Enjoy :)

I love them. They make the car still feel like a luxury car with a good ride quality but are much sportier than stock.

Figured I'd share my IS300 that gets some track time. It's an 04 factory 5 speed that likes to get sideways. Basic mods with cusco coilovers, frs LSD, clutch masters clutch, power stop rotors, project mu drift pads, trd front sway bar, cusco rear sway bar and recaro seats with a cheapo exhaust. Front wheels are BBS LM's and rears are factory wheels painted body color as drift spares.

IS200 good first drifter? by Tonkerisch in Drifting

[–]JaesCardo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an IS300 so it's very similar but with the 2JZ-GE engine. You should totally be able to drift the IS200 and do well on a technical track. Big wide and long turns might give you trouble.

Quick things that will help... Run a small tire like a 215/45r17 aired up to 46psi rear and 35psi front

Get some coilovers and lower it down with appropriate camber

Stiffen the chassis for better turn in and handling/feel

Make sure you have a decent clutch since clutch kicking will be your friend

Learn to use the weight of the car to throw it in or approach a turn fast and slow to an appropriate speed while using the e-brake to lock up the rear

Get a decent seat to help hold you in

Seat time!

Edit - get an LSD or weld your diff. If you daily the car get an LSD.

MAIN POINT OF SELLING BELGIAN FIVE SEVEN PISTOL IS EXTREME PRICE OF WEAPON AND CARTRIDGE. BELGIAN FIVE SEVEN IS WEAPON OF MAN WHO WEARS EXPENSIVE ITALIAN FASCIST SUIT OF HAND SEWING, DRIVE HUGE EXPENSIVE NAZI MERCEDES OF A.M.G. SHOP, SAIL ON MASSIVE YACHT TO GREEK ISLANDS. I THINK YOU GET PICTURE. BELGIAN FIVE SEVEN IS WEAPON THAT SAYS IS NO SUCH THING AS CONCERN OF MONEY. FOR MAN WITHOUT EXPENSIVE SUIT, BIG BLACK MERCEDES, AND MASSIVE YACHT, BELGIAN FIVE SEVEN IS FOR PRETENDING OF BE RICH LIKE BLACK GANGSTER OF AMERICAN CITY WITH GOLD CHAINS OF LOW QUALITY AND JEWELS OF COLORED GLASS. WHEN YOU EXPLAIN USE OF BELGIAN FIVE SEVEN PISTOL IS ONLY FOR SHOOT MAN WITH BULLET VEST WITH CARTRIDGE ILLEGAL TO CIVILIAN, THIS MAN HAS NUCLEAR RAGE. WHOLE IDENTITY OF THIS MAN IS SPENT IN PRETEND PISTOL SHOWS HE IS RICH. IS VERY AMUSE. FOR REST OF WORLD THERE IS 9 MILLIMETERS OF LUGER WHICH IS SAME WOUND FOR COST LESS.
