14.29, exceptional, and starting some trouble for me as bella is starting to really like blue aurions.

and well done to djkor for being right on rowáns tail

i was thinking, oh man, rowans run in the 13's (looking at daryls first post and waiting for 313), i'll have to concede to the greatness of the aurion, but alas no, there's still remains a glimmer of hope for me in the run criteria you set up for my lil stivo.

one one one, no disadvantage to the aurion that rowan has accepted, the aurion has the stivo in a straight line hands down. good result.

thanks phil :) your welcome to take my car for a drive and see what they actually handle like lowered and with the brace etc. and im sure daryl would be happy to let u to, to help assist your decission.

also my uncle (who i brought mine off) sells alot of blue aurion sportivos for really cheap....just thought id let u know ;)

you car +5g would see u in an 08 model...

313, the aurion loses out due to lack split fold rear seat, only thing I have against it. everything else i like, well except lack of lift (!)

djkor, i see in your signature, track time coming soon, let me know when

it's a long way, but a 13sec na aurion would be a thing of great beauty.

TBH, i think with a little work, you could get an N/A aurion to run mid-high 13's

Once I have my box sorted I might try drags and track. But I have a hell of a time getting 2nd gear. Phil's box is mint though! And he still gets trouble with overheating tranny fluid after a few laps at QR. So I'm waiting to I have the gremlins sorted first. I've aquired some nice brake pads, and hopefully the brake shop can machine my rotors and do my clutch adjustment as per the service thing Toyota put out (Toyota surely cant...).

And don't forget, a certain 175kW 1.6L turbo TX3 will destroy all of you in straight lines, AND around corners.* :P

Gav.

*If I can ever get the dam thing finished. Going to cam shop today.

I can't help it. It is in my nature.

Even though the difference is only very marginal, having a '3' in front of the decimal doesn't look as good as having a '2'.

The Test and Tune should give me some opportunity to work on my launch. I just thought, if you were able to stall it up on the Michelins, I wonder if I could stall it up higher on the Adrenalin's.... That's providing that stalling it up actually does help. I guess I will fit more runs in to try it out.

Mick: If you are still up for it on the night, we can meet before hand.

Sounds good to me.

As well, I'm thinking of buying a helmet for myself. Any recommendations? No need to go over the top I reckon.

as long as it complies to australian standards and its comfortable it should be all good... no need to go get an arai or something crazy.

I would head over to a motorbike place (lots at slacks ck, moss st.) and try some on.

How convenient. Moss St is like one minute away from my office here. My head down in my lunch break. Are the open face helmets that are AS approved still okay for use?

Im interested in a run on Wednesday night.

That would be exellent.

I don't see why an AS open face helmet wouldn't be acceptable.

Personaly though I prefer a closed face helmet.

      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

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.
