Shinka, doing her best to leave the biggest Carbon Footprint she can! :rofl:

The white color and black rims actually make the FJ look nice. Dunno must be the combo but I've seen the Yellow ones and I just wanna say "Look a life sized Matchbox car!". So come on Shinka.. whats the first mod you have planned???? haha

shinka213 04-05-2008 07:23 PM

i will definitely be doin some mods....have some other financial committments to take care of first..

1. have to unload the tribeca..
2. my baby graduates from drexel in june and wants an 08 STI..so i told him i would help with the down payment as a grad gift

the list of possibles:

1. replace the oem HU with a combo DVD w/Nav
2. upgrade the oem Sub
3 upgrade the suspension with a 3in lift
4. tint the rest of the windows
5. black out tail lights
6. TRD CAI
7. brush guard
8. TRD supercharger - w00t!!

so far :D:

PS...no carbon fiber for this baby...shes gonna be mostly go (where no man has gone before)

this model is a new release...called the "trail team edition"

all other FJs come with a white roof, rest of the body is one of the factory colors..ie brick, beige, silver, yellow, blue...

the TT edition comes in only one color ICEBERG white
:)

Did someone say STI?

Pictures really don't do these cars any justice. The front end/flared fenders look great compared to the base and WRX models.

Coincidently, the man who owns the Blue STI in the pics, also has a Blue FJ Cruiser (along with a few other vehicles and lots of toys lol) lol

Nice FJ - I've got a friend who is one of the head guys at a company called Real Wheels located outside of Chicago that has some really cool FJ specific mods. Here's a link: http://www.realwheels.com/fj/

Very nice Pat... they compliment each other nicely... now, I wonder which one does the most damage MPG wise? :)

flip 04-07-2008 12:03 PM

i refuse to look into this thread any further... i don't wanna be reminded of things i wanna get but can't... AWWWWWWWWWWWW too late! :icon_no2:


j/k... great rides! ;)

That is a sweet set-up!

My brother has the TRD Special Edition (all black)
here
(not his truck but it is identical)

As soon as the FJ came out, it reminded me of an off-road red-headed step-child of the 8. (suicide doors, 6-speed manual, 238ish HP)

Some have a 6-speed with a very potent V-6 and are no slouch on the road.

The all-black and all white are definitely the way to go.

Nice compliment to the 8.

Cheers

TRD makes a blower for it...and if its installed at the dealer, it wont void my warranty... :icon_no2:
