Probably best to search over in the 'Workshops and Maintenance' forum, or ask there if your question is not already been answered. You will be more likely to get some good information over there from some of the locals, and probably pick up more attention.

Edit: I'll do this here to save another post. Just off topic Drew, it's not my Varex thread as you've stated below. Credit to me though, hehehe.

I can help you with any exhaust bits you need ;) Refer to Daryl's Varex thread, there are some photo's of the work we did on Ash's car and we've also done some on Rowan's car. I'm 95% of the way through a SRI for the Aurion, when it's done I'm sure Rowan will make a thread on it.

Cheers thanks for the info. Made notes for the Varex. Was actually looking at the Xforce website as well so got that penned in the Exhaust column lol

My opinion. It's not worth going Varex unless you just want the ability to silence it easily. If you work out a way to incorporate it into a full exhaust (since when open it is a straight through 2.5 inch muffler) and then be able to get some gains out of it, then it may prove worthy because you have that ability to silence it. But if you can put up with extra noise 24/7, then go for a full exhaust without Varex as it would be the most worth it.

Stupid environmental protection and their save the Earth crap. If it weren't for that, I'd love to see what lift would do to a V6.

Thanks fro the advice...think i've got the suspension sorted after wading my way through this website lol.... exhaust i qam still torn....Varex looks to be the go so far without selling my first born child and getting a full complete new system... Brakes i haven't started yet...mate says that its not impossible, but my wallet better be big lol

Will take you up on the invite to meet up soon as i get a free weekend.

cheers

Not to sure why you'd want a brake upgrade if your only mods would be an exhaust and maybe intake i think your best bet is better pads

He may want to take it to the track. Brake fade on the stock discs and pads will cost those extra seconds.

While on the topic of brakes, I think I should do mine soon. The rotors are giving a little vibration so instead of shaving them, I may as well get some new ones. Then I'll definitely be ready for track in June.

Thanks for that. Just had a look at their site just then. Definitely something I am going to order once I get the chance.

Personally, I'd be looking at some RDA rotors - I've heard some stories of the 4000 series rotors cracking when used for track work.

      Timing issue, 1994 st204 celica

      I’ve got a 1994 st204 celica with a 5sfe motor, it runs perfectly for 15-20 until it warms up then it starts misfiring and stops. Then when the engine cools down it will start and run perfectly until it warms up again. I have replaced the igniter, internal distributor coil, distributor cap, rotor button, spark plugs, spark plug leads. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

      Car Service and Car Tune Up?

      I think this is normal, auto choke engaged when starting and comes off after the engine warms up. Giving gas resets the choke. Herb

      Hilux Workmate 2x4 bulbar installation...

      I've got a few questions regarding the installation of a bull bar on my 2006 Toyota workmate Hilux 2x4. First off, the bulbar I am looking at will weigh around 30kg and I was wondering if would need to try and get some heavier duty shock absorbers and springs to compensate for the extra weight. Keep in mind that this little 2x4 gets a run for its money and is put mainly through the scrub, basic 4wd tracks, and corrugation. Secondly, The bull bar I have purchased is for a KUN 2005-2012 Hilux body shape, which from brief research will fit. A bit of confirmation would be lovely in terms of will it actually fit properly. Any help and or insight would be lovely.

      Car Service and Car Tune Up?

      Check the spark plugs. Also consider cleaning the throttle body and idle air control [IAC] valve. Search YouTube for the relevant videos for your vehicle on how to do this.

      Brake issues with 2024 Corolla Cross Hybrid

      Initially I thought ABS or Traction Control intervening as a result of loss of traction or grip but you said normal slow down so now I'm unsure. Perhaps a video would help us assist ? I have heard of some recall issues with the Corolla Cross & operational anomalies with the Toyota "SafeTSense" system in general, the later may be what you're experiencing & what Toyota would class as a "normal characteristic" of the car 😉

      Reversing Camera Screen with Bluetooth Android conectivity

      Hi I just bought a 2004 Toyota Avalon Grande 138k on the clock and with most of the genuine accessories i.e Spoiler and Satellite Navigation Stereo Head Unit, I want to keep the the Genuine Head Unit and was wanting to put either a separate reversing camera with dash cam and screen on the Dash Board somehow, or is there a Head Unit that fits that has all the modern connectivity features such as Reversing Camera Stereo, Bluetooth connectivity. Any suggestion or advice will be much appreciated, thanks in advance.
