    Keeping it stock. It's my new "work truck" for travelling. AHC = Active Height Control. A hydrauilic/nitrogen suspension system that allows you to adjust height and ride stiffness on a whim.

    Few more pics:





    and one from a few minutes ago...

    Looks great! I really like the 100 series...maybe I'll pick one up someday. The revised lights and dash looks really nice on the newer 100s.

    Have you noticed any mpg gain over your old 100 now that you have a 5spd tranny? Does this 100 have VVTi?

    The 06/07's have VVTi, so 275HP vs the "normal" 235HP. That is in addition to the 5-speed transmission.

    I haven't noticed a difference yet. It's been too much fun so far to let off and see what it can do on efficiency. However, there is an output on the NAV where you can see your MPG for the tank, range, and an instantaneous MPG "status bar" that will be really helpful when the time comes to drive like a granny on Sunday.

    Swapped out all the fluids today with some "liquid gold"

    Amsoil 5W30 Synthetic
    Amsoil 75W90 in FrontDiff/RearDiff/XFcase
    Amsoil ATF (Toyota WS) in Trans
    Amsoil Grease for Universal Joints and Driveshaft.



    Used a WIX oversized filter:



    And did the "shadetree bucket flush" to get a full swap of all the ATF:



    So, for less than $250 shipped, I'm now good for 30K on the oil and 100K on everything else (except for the driveshaft grease).
