Hi everyone,

Im very new to this, still figuring out how to do stuff here and hopefully could make few new mates along the way.

Ive been having my aurion for more than a year now, GREAT CAR!! done few minor mods and still looking forward to do some more, but the problem ive been having is that its hard to find aftermarket parts for the car here in WA, tried ebay but also not many results im looking for..

.

SO it would help me sooo much if you guys wherever state you're in help me recommend places to get the parts.

Thanks heaps!

Welcome mate...nice Aurion,and yeah modding Aurions is a little hard,but hang in there and keep searching,good thing is there not like Holden & Ford (common as fly sh!t) and when you see a modded Aurion you tend to appreciate the looks and owners effort a little more.

p.s Nice wheels...what size & brand are your wheels & tyres?

Hi Mate

Nice looking Aurion, and very low slung. What suspension have you got under that? Also as Lee said, what are your wheels and tyres?

Cheers

Thanks guys,

The wheels i got there is a 19" Estatus style-S with the rear 9.5 wide and 8.5 at the front with falken 235/35 all round. as Rowan said yes im running on chopped set of kings spring. A bit hard to drive around with the constant rubbing and scraping but so far ive been enjoying driving every minute of it (just crank up the volume so u wont hear sh!t)

Yea..I know how it feels.. Im now with 20s.. If only sydney didn't have the regulation on low cars, would've slammed it to ground. Dpending on what parts u looking for, hit the aurion section.. Most of items are outsourced from outside oz anw. It's just costing u cheaper with finding people to have a groupbuy.. And lots of DIY mod, fun fun!

Weird u have 5 series as ur dp... :P

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Generally, yes. In the 60s, and earlier, there were cars with positive grounds, so I'm always a bit hesitant to say the negative wire. It is always the one that bolts to the body. Herb

      2011 Land Cruiser 1VD-FTV Engine Won't Start After Overhaul

      Hi everyone, I have a 2011 Land Cruiser VDJ200 with a 1VD-FTV engine. I recently had the engine fully overhauled due to a blown head gasket. However, after the overhaul, the engine is not starting. It only cranks but doesn't fire. I've checked the following DTC codes: Internal memory EEPROM error Low rail pressure The actual rail pressure data shows: 240 bar during cranking 61 bar when ignition is off Based on these findings, I suspect the following potential causes: =Defective Diesel High-Pressure Pump =Leaking Piezoelectric Injectors =Diesel Fuel Bypassing to the DPF Circuit =Faulty Injector Drivers I'm hoping for some expert advice to help diagnose and resolve this problem I'm seeking expert advice on how to troubleshoot and resolve this issue. Any suggestions or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Disconnecting batteries, ALWAYS disconnect the ground wire first. Doing this will also disconnect power, in general. Herb

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Hey guys, I’m wanting to disconnect my current winch, lightbar and UHF as I have new plans. I’ve installed a winch previously on another car so I get it’s a case of following the cables and disconnecting from the battery, etc but but safety wise, should I start by disconnecting the battery so the cables aren’t live orrrr? And if so how do it go this haha?

      Snapping wheel and axle studs

      Put a set of standard wheels on it and your problem will disappear. It is critical that the hole in the wheel centre is a snug fit on the axle boss (without wheel nuts fitted). If your wheels are sloppy on the axle boss this allows excess force on your wheel studs and they will break, as yours are doing. If you are unsure of what to do, go to a reputable tyre shop and get assistance.

      2zz idle / roughness when accelerating past 3k

      Hey everyone was hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction with this issue I've been facing for a while now. My Celica's idle will drop down to almost 200rpm when stationery after hitting operating temperature. Pretty much feels like it's about to stall out but never actually does. When taking off from a set of lights it almost feels like it hesitates or is down on power and then all of a sudden it lurches forward and gets a boost in power again. Then again around 1,500-3,000rpm it feels down on power and in what I can only describe in the engine feeling scratchy. Past 3,000 rpm it gets a little boost in power again but still definitely feels down on power compared to what it used to be and still has that roughness. Note lift is also not working at the moment but I have changed the lift bolts, planning on cleaning the VVT and VVTL-i OCV's New engine mounts have been installed I changed the MAF sensor about 4 years ago albeit not OEM. After doing some research my main ideas now would be a New MAF this time OEM, TPS, IACV or Coil Packs (Changed plugs 50,000km ago) Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!! :)
