Ralliart Lancers are a waste of time. You don't give a car a turbo and then slap skinny tyres on it and call it a performance car.

I've found Ralliarts that can't even keep up with a modded ES Lancer.

Does anyone know where we are cruising to? Need to know whether I have to bring sick bags for the wife.

some might argue that a supercharged FWD car is a wate of time also....each to thier own though i guess

*trav is now sitting in a corner rocking in the featal position crying about his crap purchase but feels a little better after insulting the TRD aurion even though he knows secretly he wants one*

How dare you, do you know how much the torque steer in the Aurion contributed to my biceps? :D

dont even talk to me about torque steer.

bwhaha

good point tho, what is the proposed cruise route?

I don't think there is a route planned, but it revolves around a mountain starting with the letter N.

15+ down the quarter mile ;) A customer was bragging he had one of the quickest stock ones in QLD (bull**** or not I don't know) and he ran a 15.1 in street trim, street tyres, etc.

Still pretty pathetic, it's even worse than just a CC Lancer with an Evo kit as you've actually paid stupid amounts of money to be an imposter.

EDIT: Probably won't be able to make it to this, have some things to do up the coast. It involves a new car that I just have bought :)

another mountain run *sigh*. cant it just be a nice relaxing drive for once. mountain runs are too draining and you feel so worn out afterwards cos everyone wants to be the hero + its night and i dont feel like crashing the colt + whitestivo cowers every time he hears nebo.

and yes i have shriveled up and gone limp i know lol

If we do a mountain run; why not take it more relaxed. No one is saying you have to go hard. I used to have fun going around Nebo on the speed limit once upon a time. Anyways, we'll see what uncle Bren has planned as it may not even involve this. I was just speculating.

And Rowan, why not get your Aurion back if you are just going to be soft. Otherwise you are just wasting your toy.

Actually I'm taking it soft too, missus will be with me, tyres are completely worn and I have a skidpan day on the 19th....I already had my fun at the track. Once I get my new tyres....it'll be another story ^_^

Anyways, if we do hit Nebo, this is a TOCAU meet remember. It's not like a cruise with the other forum guys.

and which other forum guys would that be :P

as for the n word... I will still be in it if we go up there, but a nice sedate cruise around somewhere pretty (if Brisbane has anywhere that is pretty at night) would be a welcome change from the usual mountain runs.

Nice cruise sounds good. As some of you know that celica isnt really ehalthy enough to try another Nebo run. Nearly killing myself and Mick (not to mention emabrassingly behind the everyone) last time was enough to tell me she needs a good going over and alot of new bits. Plus def need new tyres so yeah, easy going drive is the go. :)

its pretty simple really... if you dont want to push it hard, then go up the back of the pack...

i know i'll be right up the back... good tyres on the front and **** ones on the rear in a fwd car isnt the funnest way to drive around a mtn... :lol:

meanwhile... could i suggest someone (cough-rowan-cough) brings their camera out? it'd be good to get some group shots of the cars... no?

when you ladies start timing nebo runs, i'll come out and set the benchmark.

whitestivo

You need more than 'lift' to be quick up and down Nebo.

well bren has already set a cruise destination so we will find out on sat.

Phil - you havnt even been up there in your tivo you benchmark will soon be broken by nebo veteran daryl who has done it about 700 times lol

Mick/Ash - if your at the back tho its boring as you might as well go for a drive by yourself and when your on a mountain you cant contain yourself and you ahve to go fast which i dont really want to do for once. just want to go for a nice drive at the speed limit (till phil gets near me) as mick said go for a drive to somewhere pretty and where people may go waw thats a nice group of toyotas instead of hiding in the moutains with your nice cars, its like saying something funny and noone hearing it lol

Daryl - i dont drive my colt soft thats why i want a change. its fun to drive slow just like the aurion

      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.

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      I did the mathematics myself regarding costs vs benefits for fuel injector cleaner. I have changed from 91ULP to 95PULP and 98PULP. Price difference can be about 13 -20 cents. Compared to 91ULP, Premium quality fuel should have a better quality additive package designed to have superior engine cleaning capabilities so the engine can perform at their best.

      "Fuel injector cleaner is a waste of money" Only if you by the cheap crap if you use LiquMolly a German Product it does work and you won't waste your Money.

      Hi Guys, My Camry 2010 Touring just had a regas done on it and the next day for some reason it wasn't blowing cold air but the next day it is and now working with nice cold air BUT every now and then we can hear and feel a buzz for a few secounds and today while my sister took my car I could her like a mild knocking sound when stopped but goes away when driving off. Any idea what this could be and the A/C is always working now for now.
