Needless to say i'm extremely :blush: about it... But fingers crossed she'll have a new lip and a newly repaired front bar very soon!

Hey Jules,

I hope you get your car fixed soon, as it's a shame to have something like that spoiling your driving experience. From what I saw in the carpark, it looked like fuel surge issues I have seen in various friends turboed cars in the past. But without the aid of boost and fuel pressure gaues, that's just an uneducated guess. :P

It's good to see that the Sporturbo has a decent FMIC. It must be hard to resist not putting in Pauter rods and Wiseco pistons so you can run the boost up to 14-16psi?! ;) Wow, the things I would do with your car! :D

Cheers, Gav.

I know, if only I had the money!

I would LOVE to have some guages installed. The defi ones I want are really expensive and I just haven't had the money to be putting into her. Might need to track down a scan machine and see what that says first, and fingers crossed it a simple-ish solution! I'll keep ya posted!

There's a few little things I'd love to do to hear but its all money and then that changes it from stock too. I'm not against modified cars, just with this one I'd rather keep it as stock as possible I think cause they are so rear and there's not many original ones left. Hence why once she's fixed I wanna have her on some form of limited rego and only drive her on weekends :)

You don't need to ruin your car to get more oomph out of it. Things like the around-the-world-in-80-days intake can be replaced with an SRI on the driver's side for instance (oops, where's the MAF located?), so you just shelve the stock one. And then you can get a MBC/boost-T/bleed valve and adjust your wastegate actuator pressure to 10-12psi, as most cars have stock fuel and ignition maps to that before boost cut intervenes. I don't know how the stock rods on these are though.

But really, it does a 15.1s 1/4, so it's no slouch! So no one would pressure you to go and do much to it. But those little things I listed above are safe and will only set you back $200 tops, and still make you up to 20kW ATW. :)

Good luck with your bumper, I didn't even notice that last night.

Cheers, Gav.

      overheated engine

      I drive a 2010 series 200 sahara V8 automatic. I recently towed a small caravan on a not that hotter day. The temperature gauge went to about half then dropped back to normal. The motor then went into limp mode and eventually stopped. On lifting the bonnet i noticed the top radiator tank had split all the way across. I have only two months ago had the complete cooling system checked with no defects. I called the RAA in South Aust and they tried to start it but just turned over but did not fire up. It was still pretty hot. I have been told the motor would be ruined by overheating. The car has been sitting at the repairers for 5 days now and as far as i know it has not been attempted to start. Before putting a new motor in it would it be worth putting a new radiator in it and see if it will fire up? Open to any suggestions at this stage.

      1996 Trueno XZ - Is it worth modding?

      Depends on how common/rare they are in your part of the world. The XZ trim was the second-lowest so didn't come with most of the fun bits that the full-fruit BZG/V/R models did, so it's not anywhere near as desirable stock but sometimes you have to make do with what you can find, plus you shouldn't feel as guilty modding the heck out of it since most of it isn't special.

      VSC, Traction Control, Check Engine lights all on

      I attended Toyota Preston for Aurion ATX 2013 major service today. Cost $~$1300. On the way home I stopped to pick up dinner. Two fault lights: engine and VSC lights came on when I restarted the car. Car drove home just fine. I can only return the car tomorrow for them to sort out. Annoyed. Let’s see if they’re still on in the morning.

      1996 Trueno XZ - Is it worth modding?

      Hi everyone, new member to the group and owner driver of a nifty little Toyota Sprinter Trueno XZ, now this was my cousins car, I bought it off him and after various drives, I have come to the decision that this needs alot of love. Now I am wondering if its worth putting my time and money into doing this certain make n model up or should I just buy a different car to do up? I am not very car-inclined so I really don't know a lot. Any opinions would be very helpful Thankful!

      Android auto

      OK. Does any of Toyota's advertising material mention Android Auto? If so then kick up a stink, with Toyota management, about misrepresentation and false advertising, reminding them of the hefty fines. Herb
