Hey guys...

My original TRD rims from my aurion were stolen this morning sometime between 7am and 9am from the Indropilly area.

Also, my mates van and over $1000 worth of camping gear were stolen as well...

We have made a report to the police and now its just a waiting game.. but PLEASE keep a look out for anyone trying to sell these rims... there is a distinctive scratch on one of the rims (which i will not say on here), so i will know if they are mine or not...

plus, i cant see there being a HUGE amount of TRD rims being sold...

Slightly ****** off cause its the only stock rims i havent sold after getting aftermarket rims... and now they're gone... :(

so yeah, please let me know asap if you see/hear anything about a van/camping gear/TRD rims...

thanks guys

Ash.

Ash you do know that the original wheels have DataDot on the inside edge with the VIN details.

thanks man. I didn't know that. I'll call up thecops tomorrow and add it to the police report.

Ash,

hey. Thanks for the heads up, but it got stolen this morning, so I doubt they'd advertise to 3 days before they actually stole it.

Found out today that they also took my mates motorbike helmet and jacket and gloves.

God help them if we find them. A few of our friends are bikeys. So they're on the look out too. Lol

Nah man. The rims on the car are pictured below. They were in the corner of the garage with a sheet over them. So they either knew that the rims were there or they must have looked under the sheet.

Keep an eye on GUMTREE too and other sites which allow users to sell things at no cost. I will keep an eye on GUMTREE.

Sorry to hear about your rims

Sorry to hear.........I'd kill the little bastards.

Just to add, is there actually anyone running around on TRD rims in a stock standard Aurion or sx/zr at the moment.

I would think that they are going to be very hard to sell knowing that they are probably stolen.....maybe keep an eye out for new trd rims on a standard Aurion. just a thought.

Nice to know i have data dots on my rims too..

That sucks to hear Ash. I'll keep an eye out for any set that I see go on sale on the net since I will be spending quite a bit of time here at home.

EC11WA: As far as I'm aware, I've only seen one set of TRD rims go on sale for eBay (lucky buyer got them for around $800 as well), so I would imagine there is at least one owner out there with as set of TRD rims on a standard Aurion.

      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!!! :)
