Toyota Land Cruiser Prado LC120

[IMm29]

yes sir fortuner stock 20's wala pa kasi pang prado nung binili ko yan. nag 55series ako bro and may sumayad na inner lining pero inadjust lang naman.

got the front skirt from a local fabricator in angeles city. took a chance lang coz i really felt na bitin talaga yung front bumper ng 120 series. thank you and glad that you liked i guess gamble paid off hehehe

How much did you get it? Can they still make another one? It does well to extend the bumper a bit without being too obvious.

[IMm29]

Actually, this is what I'm looking for:



This is how it looks like:



I hit that part against a metal pipe in our building's basement parking. Bad trip! Basag yung part, plastic lang eh.

^sa casa na yan sir. may tinignan kami na 120 series sa buy and sell na wala din yung part na yan. sa casa din sila nag order.

[IMm29]

Ah ok. Thanks crazy_boy.

Any idea kung magkano inabot?

the skirt is only 5k paint included and i paid an additional 2k to have the whole bumper repainted.
i will ask tom if they still have another one but they probably have naman. this skirt is a parto fortuner front kit and was customized and extended to fit my lc 120. i know it kinda devaluates the front kit because its not a original lc 120 but there are only limited options for the lc 120 and they are not that nice pa.

I actually like your chin better than the one on the white Prado. OA na yun eh. Subtle lang yung sa iyo, pero it completes the front end.

[chriscortez]

Sorry, don't have a pic of just the cover. Hope you can see it from this viewpoint.

Sir IMm29, i have noticed that your tire cover is double sided and not the usual one side with leatherette casing. did you make any adjustments in the tire mount?

Yes bro I'm glad it turned out alright, and the good thing is that it can still pass as OEM. With regards to the white prado I totally agree and for me personally its looks plain...

I asked the fabricator of the front chin, they still have stock of it. Yun lang it still has to be customized which will take at least the whole day and then come back again after two days to have it installed. Its the same process that was done with my car.

Sige Bro, I will keep that in mind. Thanks. Unahin ko muna yung dash and railing cover. I was actually at Toyota Makati earlier. Stayed for about 20 minutes to wait for someone to show up at the Parts counter. Kelangan ba talaga sabay sabay ang lunch break?!

As regards the spare tire cover, yes, it's a 2 piece unit. I retained the OEM silver Toyota cover and the key lock over the center bolt. Wala na ngang padlock yung outer cover. It will take a while to get to the tire itself, not to mention there's a lock to pick inside. No adjustments were made to the mount. It's the wiper that was adjusted a bit as the arm was hitting the back of the cover in stock adjustment. Despite that, the wiper blade does not go past the rear windshield.

Nice! Baguio po kayo, diba? Masarap sa ahunan yung Prado, di kasi gaanong mabigat vs. say Patrol.

ay opo, ansarap talaga sa ahunan whether via kennon or marcos hiway, actually the only suv so far that overtook me along marcos hiway last year was the new landcruiser (yung parang frog yung likod, sorry po i dont know how i could describe it)

[IMm29]

Ummm... Ribbit?



Getting overtaken by this beast wouldn't be insulting. That's a monster! The LC100 with the 4.2L diesel, however, is manageable.

I'd actually like to take the Prado up to Baguio. Last year the weapon of choice was the GS for more room and more occupants (wife + kids + yayas + bro in law and wifey). A road trip with the boys might allow for the Prado to be used.

The farthest north it has gone in its 75,000 kms is actually just Pangasinan. South, just Nasugbu, Batangas. City dweller only mostly. Got to stretch its legs on the Pangasinan trip. Convoyed with my Dad in a gas Innova and kept it at about 180 kph for a few minutes on SCTEX. No cops then. Unfortunately, muffler weld went bye bye when the car cooled while we were lined up at the toll gate. Wasn't planning on gunning it, but didn't want to get left behind. Hehehe!

After about 8 years on 20s (7 years) and 22s (1 year), I wonder how it'll feel to be on stock 17" shoes. Hmmm....

yups, try to come up to Baguio, magpalamig lng. Especially if the TPLEX would be completed where travel from Manila to Baguio would be that near, malamang 3hours na lng or less. Medyo matrafic na nga lng ng konti dito sa amin ngayun.

ganyan na nga na kulay puti, hehehe, napalunok na nga lng po ako

Nasa driver din yan. Not all LC200 drivers have the balls to make passes on mountain roads. Rarely do you get guys who'll do that. Hehehe!

What I like about the Prado is that, despite it lacking a good top end of power, its low end is ready at your disposal. Did some "climbing" in San Mateo 2 weeks back with a full ride (4 adults, 2 kids) -- comment si misis dun sa matatarik na daan na parang baguio daw ang akyatan -- no issues. Wanted to push aside a new-ish diesel innova that was trying to smoke me, with, well, black smoke.
Hehehe! Not bad for a oldie.

Went to one of my trusted mechanics earlier -- supposedly just to have my timing belt checked. I'm at 75,000 kms, and usually the interval is 100,000 kms, so now might actually be a good time. He knew Toyotas more than me -- Sir, 150,000 kms pa po kayo sa timing belt, kung di ako nagkakamali. Check niyo po ang manual. True enough, 150,000 kms nga lalabas ang warning light.

So he adds: Sir, kung 10 years niyo napaabot ang 75,000, ibig sabihin, sa 2024 pa tayo magpapalit ng timing belt. Retired na ako nun!

Come to think of it, onga no. Hehehe! How about you guys, anyone have their timing belts replaced yet? And at what mileage?
