yeah but i needed bday presents since my fam tells me im too old for them i said well ima buy my own then lol
never too old for presents! I mean, for fathers day I got those toyota badges that you saw, and some tein springs ( now just need the struts and another birthday or something)
yeah i know what you mean i put my stock intake back on prolly my intake for sale next week or something dunno yet.
i wanna get a trd drop in filter
Really? Didnt like the look, or is a performance issue? How does a TRD filter compare to say a K&N?

From my experiences with a short ram as opposed to a stock intake, it's WAY louder (almost annoying), and not nearly as much pull on top end.

And with what I've heard, the TRD is a rebadged K&N.

Hmm, I always thought they were more expensive. Very nice.

K&N FilterOk, or this K&N Filter (p/n 33-2052) for 42 and change. Its a bit cheaper, but I guess its all on what you want to go for as far as name goes.
cool i dunno we will see what i get, well this has gotten pretty far off topic lol
well back to the pads what you guys think
I was never a fan of them, but to each their own. What's up with the armrest?

Is it a TRD? I meant I don't understand why it's up there with the rest of the stuff. Or is it a birthday present you got?

Gotcha, looks really good.

yeah there alot better than stock, and they are like a felt like matterial, and they are imbroidered not stickered if you know what i mean, but yeah they do have a good amount of padding to them, they arent real bulky like most that you see thats why i like them more than the ones you can by from autozone or pepboys
hey Akirad1 how do you install the armrest?

[b]My Build Thread|Flickr|My Blog
my padded one or the cover but if your talkin bout the cover there is a howto lol
mines not like that :s its not cushionly, its a hard leather like the daskboard. . maybe its something to do with being australian

well from what i was told by death its a dealer option that cost 150 USD, and yeah i have the other one under the padded armrest, so i dont thinks a Ausie thing
