Heyy, what's up everyone!!! I'm new to this website and to this online advice community thing, it seems pretty cool cause all of us ahve something in common other than our cars. I'm 17 years old tuning 18 in 2 weeks and I just got my 1st car, a1991 Toyota MR2 Turbo. It has 142k miles it's. I always thought that VIN that started with J meant that it was built in Japan. I came across this document that says; US built VIN begins with J4T1 Japan. Since most Toyota owners are not going to enter their car in the annual Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance show, they don't need an exotic d'Elegance wax job. As far as luxury car forums, you were probably reading posts from owners who are obsessive about their cars. I've had various luck with water pumps, but on cars that I owned since they were close to new with regular coolant flushes, they seem last well past 100K. When I sold my 80 Celica GT, with 145K miles, it had the original water pump. Yes checking the dealer website is pretty much what all I've been doing. Stock photos show incoming cars and when they hit the dealer then the actual vehicle photos are posted. Been slim pickins so far though, dealer only has six vehicles at the moment. I sent the dealer an inquiry through Toyota's website inventory search listing, and the dealer rep emailed telling me inventory wasn't. That opens a screen that allows you to swipe through all of the active vehicles on your Toyota account (including those that are too old for Connected Services) and there's a big + sign to add another one. When you have the second car added, this is also how you switch cars in the app to make a different one the car you're using. Looking at pics will not help much. First of all, there a several different types of tint film, such as dyed, charcoal, ceramic (nano), etc that look totally different for a given VLT percentage. Plus, photographs of tinted windows can be very misleading depending on the weather, background of the photo, etc. Tint laws vary by state (as to allowed VLT), and depending on why you want a tint job. A little more than a month ago I bought a 1996 Avalon XLS. Since then I've been wondering what does XL and XLS stand for. I know, for example, what LE stands for on a Corolla -- Limited Edition , and S stands for Sport , but I cannot figure out Avalon's trims are. Hopefully this forum can. I'm looking to install a kill switch and cut the power to the fuel pump I was wondering if anyone could help Find the wiring or fuse. I looked in the manual the only thing I could find there was under hood fuse box, 12 multiport fuel injection system, 20 multiport fuel injection/starting. Toyota Land Cruiser (1953) Toyota Land Cruiser BJ (1951) First passenger car (1936) The year 1936 marked the birth of Toyota Motor's first passenger car. It adopted the popular streamline style, possessed an ideally balanced load on the front wheel, and offered a superior ride which placed it above many foreign cars in terms of comfort.
