Is there a reason why people sell off their d2/g4 coilovers within a year of owning them ?

Edit: Sorry this belongs to the stupid thread.

Agreed.

You only have them if you're hardcore and your ***** can survive the ride harshness. I was already used to a bumpy car which is why I shouldn't have any issues.

Less QQ more twist twist through corners imo :D

The evo at least makes up for the harshness by literally acting like it's on rails too :(

check d2's on nissansilvia.com

u will find a few instances of the shafts snapping! normal driving as they claim... leaking after 200kms... etc...

might just be a brand thing... d2'sseem to be very popular cos of the price... and the cheap resale afterwards

Seems about right.

Also I'm sure most of the people who buy them generally sell there car 12 months later anyway, hence why they don't stay on very long.

      Current Oil Specials

      You're not wrong there Ash, greedy retailers trying to make a dollar. I say let them all bleed & see how they like it, surely they must be hurting by now. I have rarely walked into either of the big 3 auto stores, essentially purchased nothing all year. Have plenty stock to keep going, anticipating big Black Friday sales. I have also been considering swapping out my Aurion for something much taller (cos lower back issues) & super efficient but I just can't bring myself to flushing all that $$ for the sake of it, especially given the Aurion is still like a new car. Also concerned about leaving the very good safety of a car manufactured by Toyota for something a little unknown despite also being Japanese made. Then there's the ever changing landscape in the middle east which is excuse enough to instill fear into everyone from producers to stockbrokers to retailers and of course those that live there. Interesting times ahead for sure.

      Advice Please

      Welcome to the forum John, Depending on where you are your best option may be to get your existing alternator checked first to be totally sure that is the issue.The next if unable to find one suitable even on the aftermarket you may have to have that one rebuilt ..That may be your only option..I am sure somewhere there is one suitable but finding it is always the issue. I would get good advice from an AUTO ELECTRICIAN as they will have the inside knowledge of any sources that may able able to help you mate. KAA

      Current Oil Specials

      Times have changed post-COVID and no great bargain oil specials worth mentioning until now. Latest Repco catalogue has 50% discount Penrite Vantage Semi Synthetic 10W-40 Engine Oil 6L - VANSEMI10W40006. $35 for 6 litres is worth considering whether it will be applicable for your vehicle's engine and servicing requirements. Because most of my driving is short distance and as preventative measure against oil sludge, I use a comparatively short oil change interval between 3-6 months. It is a cost benefit decision. I use full synthetic for my long distance road trips. https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/engine-oils-fluids/engine-oil/penrite-vantage-semi-synthetic-10w-40-engine-oil-6l-vansemi10w40006/p/A9611158

      Advice Please

      I have an imported Hiace 200 with the 2.0l 1TR FE petrol, engine. There is a noise from the engine that i'm pretty sure is the alternator. I'm finding it difficult to source a new alternator at a reasonable price, It seems there are plenty for the 2.7 engine. Does anyone know if one of those would fit my 2.l engine. Thanks

      A Greenskin

      Hi Team Toyota, I am fortunate enough to be the proud owner of 2 Toyota's - an '03 Rav4 AWD Cruiser and an '07 Toyota Hiace. Both have been reliable and strong with incredible components that are so well fitted, it's a struggle to dismantle any part of them. I'm modifying my van and will probably have to sell the Rav to complete the project. I will look forward to learning much from you all and wish you all happy and safe motoring. Gidget
