It all depends on personal preferance and of course your pocketbook. Being that it is an 04- i would start off with doing a maintance on it to have a fresh clean slate: Oil & Filter Fuel System Cleaner (lucas works) New Spark Plugs Clean/Replace air filter Replace Coils (optional) Fuel Filter (optional) New O2 sensor (optional) New Maf (optional) New PCV (clean/replace optional) Brake Pads (inspect/replace if needed) Wipers (replace if they smear bad) That should get you started with some pretty basic stuff (and keep you busy) and have a happy engine. after this do a search for MOD iknow2 04-01-2011, 06:33 PM and what about meets if there are any or just scion groups or something 08txTC 04-02-2011, 12:54 AM what area are you from ? iknow2 04-02-2011, 10:58 PM Houston ,Texas Distracted_Thinker 04-03-2011, 03:41 AM lol is there any groups? Youre in the hotbed of groups. You chose a great city to start in theres tons of group. Team Scion Eyed, Scikotics, Scion Rides , and those are just scion specific groups theres tons of others that arent just scions. crush02342002 04-03-2011, 03:46 PM yep you have alot of options when it comes to car clubs..there are two specific to scions.....Houston scikotics and a new one (dont remember their name). there used to be a North Houston scikotics but its been disolved. some of us just get togather at random for some track fun. anyways welcome to the world of scions! crush02342002 04-03-2011, 03:48 PM I keep forgeting about tse iknow2 04-04-2011, 04:04 PM ok cool.. thanks and what track do meet up at...and is there a chance if it would be cool just join with you harley123 04-08-2011, 08:31 AM he xB offers a comfortable, if somewhat unconventional, driving position. The xB's windshield is more vertical than most, and the driver looks over a squared-off hood. The minimalist instrumentation (fairly big speedometer, tiny tachometer and fuel gauge) is in a pod on the center of the dash, a handy location once you get accustomed to it. Obviously there's no shortage of headroom. The back seats are adequate provided the people you put back there aren't prone to complaining. The xB's short length necessitates a choice between back seat room and trunk space; packing the xB to the gills requires folding the rear seats. Unfortunately, the trunk of my test car was occupied by a huge tube-shaped subwoofer (bass speaker, not shown in the photos), part of an optional ($775) stereo system with enough power to bring down low-flying planes. Speaking of options, most of the xB's are purely aesthetic: tape stripes, colored lights for the floor and cupholders, etc., stuff Scion's marketers thought would appeal to the young'uns who want to be different, _________________ Roller Blinds (http://www.tradeblinds.com/roller-blinds) Blinds (http://www.tradeblinds.com/) crush02342002 04-12-2011, 10:03 PM ok cool.. thanks and what track do meet up at...and is there a chance if it would be cool just join with you I like to go to HMP (houston motorsports park) since its soo close to me. or we may go to baytown which used to be houston raceway park, they changed the name to royal purple raceway or something like that. it may be a little while before i go though, im still balls deep in a build. iknow2 04-13-2011, 02:18 AM Wat u building?....and I like those tracks I am always there crush02342002 04-13-2011, 10:10 AM well iv finished the engine about 4 months ago http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii164/crush02342002/IMG_2138.jpg http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii164/crush02342002/IMG_2140.jpg http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii164/crush02342002/IMG_2147.jpg http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii164/crush02342002/IMG_2149.jpg http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii164/crush02342002/IMG_2151.jpg milled my own vac block and oil block http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii164/crush02342002/IMG_2212.jpg http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii164/crush02342002/IMG_2165.jpg still breaking in the engine before i reinstall my turbo this is what my car was looking like before the build http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii164/crush02342002/IMG_1923.jpg http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii164/crush02342002/th_MVI_1959.jpg (http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii164/crush02342002/?action=view¤t=MVI_1959.mp4) |
