A quick SEARCH using the wonderful SEARCH function yields some old threads I even included some good quotes that I found using the SEARCH function.

OK I got it in. The Home Depot did not have 65mm m8X 1.25 bolts just 70 and 60, so in a lapse of good judgment I got 60mm The fit on the top 2 holes no washer. I will be getting 70 mm eventually. 60 mm does NOT fit the bottom 2 holes. I used the 90 mm that came with it and 2 washers each from the kit; I will probably try 70 mm later on. Other than that install was easy.

How did it feel well it is hot out today so I cannot wait for evening to really have fun but I do feel like midrange has had a nice improvement and I would recommend it as a cheap mod for other people. Second gear feels a lot nicer and the powerband feels smoother. I will try to get pictures soon.

****** Update
On the top use m8 X 1.25 70mm long and on the bottom use 2 of the 90 mm long that came with the kit and 2 washers under each 90 and 1 under each 70mm. You will need to also buy 2 m8 washers for the top sense the kit only comes with 4.

Does the one in the link work for the solara? I didn't check the VIN # like the website says, but it is listed for 4runner and tacoma. Is this the same one u got midias or is there one for solaras?

by **AznDragonV** » Mon May 28, 2007 3:56 pm

Greg has a 2000 and Midias, you have a 2001... and i have a 1999. so this TB spacer will fit all gen 1 correct?

There is none for the solara you need one for the tachoma. You also need some new screws read above I found them at home depot.

I have a 2000 Solara V6, and i have a T/B spacer also.
You have a slight gain, but you have to extend some wires/cut some tubin' cover to make some room.
