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.

yeah, its not lift you need, its a big set of balls.

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

      05 hiace ecu

      Hi all, new member needing some help with an issue that has me stumped, replacing ignition and had a short somehow. Van would not crank or obviously start, found blown fuse and replaced, now car cranks but won’t start, no check engine light when ignition is first turned on and scan tool will not communicate with ecu. All fuses good except fuse 26 on instrument panel fuse box has no power. almost convinced my ecu is cooked but before outlaying for a new one thought someone may either advise another possible cause or confirm ecu likely the issue, appreciate any advise or experience similar.

      1989 Hilux Low Voltage

      Hey all, recently got a 1989 Hilux with the petrol 22r engine. I had plugged a voltage meter into the 12v socket because I suspected an electrical problem as the battery light had been on. It had read 11.9 volts initially but the more I drive the more it deteriorates, currently sitting at 10.9 (after several hours of driving) when the engine is running. This obviously doesn't charge the battery and it can't start by itself. I have since replaced the battery and yesterday I did the alternator with a brand new one. I've checked all the grounds that I can see but it's still sitting at 10.9 volts and deteriorates over time. I was thinking the voltage regulator is the next best bet? I looked at it visually and it seems fine. Anyone got any other ideas? Note: I had a very long drive the other week and on one occasion the voltage spiked back up to 15+ volts for a short while before going back down to about 11.4 And yeah I'm trying not to drive it too much because I know it's probably damaging the battery being on such low voltage. Any help would be awesome thanks!

      FUEL WARNING MESSAGE

      Photo below showing remotely mounted relay for sup pump and switch to connect relay coil to earth when required. The earth connection for the switch was found using a test light in an empty relay socket just near where the relay is now mounted. You can trace the solid black wire. Btw, I soldered all the crimp connectors. I don't have a lot of faith in crimp connectors. Geoff

      FUEL WARNING MESSAGE

      No, I didn't see a fuel filter, but the inside of the tank was spotless. The pump wasn't running - blocked filter or not. Geoff

      FUEL WARNING MESSAGE

      Geoff, did you check the fuel filter that protects the transfer pump from blockages? Tony

      Wanting to build my car.

      I’ve brought my first car a while ago it’s a 2008 Toyota Aurion sportivo zr6 it has 215xxx kms I’ve been wanting to modify it as it is tidy but I’m unsure if I should since the car is this old and I have had to replace the oil cooler lines a month ago (my car dumped its oil on me) just unsure if they go good after a certain age. what I do want to do to it is. wheels lowering springs or coil overs stiffer sway bar exhaust tint all round after market head lights and tail lights (if any of you know decent ones could you shear a link as I’ve only been able to find some on eBay) if there is anything else that would make it look good like body kits if there are any would be nice to know. Thanks in advance IMG_0918.cr2

      2004 hzj79 surging/jolting

      Gday Ive got a problem with my 2004 hzj79 with 235,000kms with no turbo, ive takin it to a few places all have different answers. At 1400rpm just on light throttle it seems to be surging/jolting as if your on and off the accelerator. Ive recently had the head gasket, head, injectors, fuel filters and timming belt all done and is still happening after the works been done. Has anyone else had the same problem before or be able to point me in right direction? Cheers.
