FJ Cruisers of Northern California

New FJ in San Jose

I just got a 2007 titanium metallic manual trans FJ Cruiser. Bought it with 33K on the clock and it came equipped with a K&N CAI and adjustable coilover ProComp lift with 35" Dick Ceepeks. This thing rocks and I love it already! Just got back from a road trip to Socal for the New Year and it was solid, only thing that sucked was only getting 16 MPGS. I'm looking forward to attending any local meets and hitting trail runs. My wife and I love the outdoors and campin and are stoked about having a capable vehicle such as the FJ.

Forester Turbo. It is a great car. But I love the rocks and it doesn't work for that.

Bozly has an FJ and I have been driving it on the trails and decided to get my own. Looking forward to hitting the trails soon but I need a couple of mods first.

Nice! My wife has a Forester N/A and I had an 04 WRX and an 08 STi. I've been trying to convince her to trade it in for an FJ. :D Suby's are fun cars but I wanted something that had AWD and the capability to go anywhere so I got the FJ6MT and love it. Definately looking forward to hitting some trails. Mods are a must. What do you have planned for your FJ?

3" Lift, Skid Plates, Boztec Rear Diff Skid Plate, Exhaust, Tyres. This is for a start. Ordered the CB the other day and will arrive tomorrow. Need that for this weekends run to Red Rocks Canyon Trail in the Mojave area. What about you?

Did you mean 4WD in place of AWD?

The manual transmission models (MT) are all-wheel drive.

Sounds like a nice list of mods. 6-speed manual FJ's are full time all wheel drive and not part time 4 wheel drive unlike their automatic trans. brothers.

Welcome Ti Falcon! I like the name, I think I'd like to call mine aluminum falcon now....

I sold an 05 Legacy GT to buy the FJC, looks like there may be a trend here.

As I was driving my FJ home from the dealer I felt so high up and first came up with the name Sywalker. Skywalker then became Milenium Falcon. Milenium Falcon became Titanium Falcon. Guess you can call me Han Solo! :D
Yea looks like going from Suby to FJ is the trend.
