interesting, I doubt it's spanish because it's RHD. All the stickers I saw match the aussie cars, and if it was a euro delivered car it would have been built in Belgium, not South Africa.

Cheers for the pm though, I'll keep in touch and let you know how it's going. :)

cheers for the help so far though, much appreciated.

Inlet - Duration - Low 276； High 304 - Lift - Low 9.7mm； High 12.5mm

Exhaust - Duration - Low 276； High 296 - Lift - Low 9.7mm； High 11.68mm

Stage 3 by the sounds of those specs :D

I have a spreadsheet that makes checking the valve clearances a breeze. Involves mesuring the shim thickness, gap between lobe and roller, and the gap between the shim and the rocker. I excel-erized Boosted2.0s guide. Unless you have access to the Toyota SSTs?

As for cam break-in, I found a 10mm nut wedged under the throttle butterfly stop gave a nice 3000rpm for the engine to sit at.

US$159

Total cost to my door was AUS$880 according to the credit card statement.

Would probably be about $20-30 cheaper on today's exchange rate. It was about 1.065 when I bought.

they have the quaife LSD at 10% off right now too, but it's just over the $1K limit at a delivered price still... just!

im going to make your day here:P its the sale price without the shipping on top that customs charges you on so you can order that quaife and not cop the import tax :P

also, check your alternator pulley fits your alternator, when i ordered mine it didnt fit the australian delivered alternator,the hole in the pulley was too big and the boss section at the rear of the pulley fouled on the alternator, luckily someone i knew had an imported one that i swapped him for! you alternatively can machine the boss down and run a sleeve in the centre but i wouldnt advise it as i have seen it done before and it kept coming loose on the sleeve

and also ill be in sydney on tuesday avo. send me a pm mr22zz! i need to know where to go to find the sportivos at wreckers there:P

yea pain in the ***** haha, check out a few 1zz alternators if yours is not the correct one you may get lucky with an aftermarket one having the bigger shaft size, they go on you just dont use the extra support bracket on the top. the bad part is that you have to pull the pulley off to see the shaft size and wreckers get annoyed when you walk around pulling alternators apart haha.our metric belt sizing also lands us with a slightly longer belt than the ideal,but it works.....i think from memory its a 6pk1930 that im running on there with the same accesories that your 2zz has on it with both pulleys installed. ill double check it for you!

What part number have you got on your alternator? Might be easier to source a Denso from the USA, at least it would be new and not need a rebuild. Weight would be a killer on shipping though.

stock aus spec 2zz's run a 6pk1930 belt. so as mwr suggest adding 2 inches for both pulleys, you would need a 6pk1980. assuming you still want the aircon to work (a lot of guys in the u.s. go without the aircon by choice so have used even shorter belts accordingly).

i just got both the mwr pulleys myself, but haven't got around to installing them yet (but they're on the agenda for this weekend!).

i've already bought a 6pk1980 belt, so i'll let you know how it goes fitment wise with the belt and the alternator pulley. fingers crossed!

all clearances were done to suit the new cams.

Thought I wouldn't notice the aftermarket camshafts :P

      Need Advice please

      Suggest that you look at an online catalogue for struts/shock absorbers specifically for the Year and Model specification for your Camry. Easiest way to clean fuel injectors is to use a fuel additive together with decent quality fuel.

      What can cause 2x bolts Missing on break calipers?

      For starters, you are referring to the BRAKE calipers. Missing bolts is highly probable that whoever last worked on the braking system did not properly tighten the bolts to the correct torque specification. Presumably, the brake pads were replaced approximately 6 months ago.

      What can cause 2x bolts Missing on break calipers?

      Hi All, I have sent my car to a local mechanism shop as I heard a big scary clunk noise from the front left wheel part recently. And a huge surprise came back to me is, they told me that my break calipers has two bolts missing. I don’t think it is a common problem caused by daily routine driving. So really need to find out what was happened to that 2 bolts?! How lucky I was for driving nearly half a year without a tight break!! I even have kids on my car… can’t think more now. It’s terrifying 😱

      Engine Immobiliser

      Hi Chris, I would suggest getting a code scan as well mate as it could be something locking out the security starting process, and it may make tracking it down faster for you maybe worth the fee for a mobile mechanic who can do that for you as I doubt it will be a fuse or relay causing it sounds,like something in the security side of the process. I am sure if any others have ideas they will post it, these are just guesses on my part so I hope you get it sorted fast mate KAA

      Fuse boxes info

      I have a Toyota tarago 2002 acr30. I'm trying to find out where I can get the contents list of all the items in the fuse boxes. I think it has 4. I only have one cover in the engine bay fuse box. The other three have no information anywhere. Need to know what the items ( fuses, relays ) are for ?? If anyone can help would be a nights sleep for me..

      Rav4 Nightmare After Dodgy Mechanic

      Hey everyone, hope you're doing well! Unlike me and my Toyota, which is currently in a bit of a mess, haha. I'm reaching out for some help, feeling pretty desperate, to be honest. My 2013 Rav4 2AD-FTV Turbo Diesel is on the verge of being a total loss thanks to a dodgy mechanic who really messed things up. My car's was pristine, but then it blew the head gasket. I acted quickly, called up a mechanic recommended by a friend, and he towed my car away promising to assess the damage. He later reported that the engine was still in great shape but needed the head gasket reshaped to fix the issue. Weeks turned into months, and despite numerous promises and missed deadlines, my car remained in the shop. The mechanic stopped answering my calls or messages, and when I finally tracked down my car, it was sitting outside another workshop, unable to start. Cut to now, after seeking help from a reputable diesel specialist, they've replaced seals, checked compression, swapped injectors, and pretty much everything possible. But my car still struggles to idle, and they suspect the previous mechanic may have messed up something electronic or electrical. I'm at my wit's end. No auto electrician seems willing to touch it, fearing it's a money pit with no guarantee of success. It's incredibly frustrating, especially considering I may lose the car. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

      Door seals - causing internal leak

      Hi experts need some help. I have a 2004 Sahara 100series. With all this rain we are having my car has started leaking. It was my father in laws car. It’s leaking water down the pillar trim where the handle is inside front seats onto the dash, down the side of airbag and glovebox and dripping from corner foot area where dash ends and onto the floor. I can see the seal on the roof above the door has a gap in it. Could this be it? 1Q. Who would I get to look at this? 2Q. Anyone had this issue before? 3Q. Where do I begin. Thanks in advance, Sarah IMG_3589.mov

      FUEL WARNING MESSAGE

      Kanga, You wouldn't believe it, I found a pump at a Victorian wrecker. He posted it to me but to the wrong address. It was 10 days before I found this out. I went to the wrong address and they said the didn't see it. Austpost is adamant it was delivered. The wrecker fortunately has another one. So, I haven't taken the old one out yet.
