^ Good stuff mate. Certainly won't be disappointed. I'm not sure about you, but after fitting my rotors, I was very cautious about them. So when I stopped at a set of lights, I would (where possible) put the car into neutral and take my foot off the brakes. After handling them myself, I just couldn't bear the thought of them warping.

After about 1000km of driving with them, you should go for a Nebo run to see how it feels. Definitely an improvement.

Thanks for the tip mate ill do that, did you do the rears on yours ? i will prob just get the street series for rear. Just gotta wait for my pedders springs now i was hoping they would be here by Friday just gone but are still in transit. Apparently the fronts are newly released and they were just put into mass production in the last 2 weeks dont know if there was a problem with the old ones or camry ones were getting used :unsure:

Sure did. Was the Street Series as well since I didn't have the need to go over the top with the rears... plus I think the 4000 Series wasn't available at the time anyways. Here's a pic for reference... they sure look rather small eh:

The 4000's make no difference to the size of the rear rotors. Same goes for the fronts.

3 weeks eh? That's a bit of a bummer. I ordered mine and had them in 2 days. I guess they must have run out.

had to wait about a week for fronts who'd you et yours through.

I went to Super Cheap Auto and got them to order directly from DBA. This meant I got them for the cost that DBA was selling them for and I only had to pay something like $7.95 each extra for delivery. Front rotors took about 3 days when I ordered them.

Yes that was me at the Thursday night meet next to Ingres's car first time i went there was great night meeting most of the QLD members didn't get to meet everyone there but most. My mod list just grew alot bigger after leaving there.

Im hoping to have "upgraded" sound by saturday most of saturday will be spent tuning as the system is running active (no crossovers) on front speakers so will require alot of playing. Im hoping to have subbox all trimmed up tuesday arvo and mounted with sub in. Then it is on to my remote start alarm which i'm not looking forward to.

I also brought the k&n intake that was posted for sale in the buy&sell section so im hoping that it arrives next week but i doubt as i only paid for it on Friday and public holidays and postage is 3 days from VIC :angry:

hey mate, it's coming along nicely. I'll admit I didn't really understand what you meant when you described your sub box to me the other night, but that looks great! Very fine workmanship, I hope mine comes out even half that good.

Keep up the good work, hopefully see you next week

Which system did you get? I'm working on one of these with my brother... they are pretty complicated.

      1zz-fe engine rebuild

      Hello all, Working on my 2002 corolla. It needs a engine rebuild due to burning oil out the back. It has over 400,000 km on it and I havent looked after it. Everything is still original on the motor. The only thing that I have replaced, was the brushes on the alternator. They were completely worn out. I am pulling the motor/gearbox out of the car. Wont know the condition of the block or head until I strip it down. I know the design of the piston where changed in the 2003+ models for more oil holes, which stopped the buring of oil. 1. Was there any other changes made ? 2. Does anyone know of where I can get a engine rebuild kit for 1zz-fe motor in australia ? 3. I have only found one place that I can get a new short motor built but that is in the USA and they do ship to australia but was hoping to find something in australia Thanks for help. Dragon

      2007 Corolla Sedan rear seatbelt question

      Hi everyone, new member here. I've got a small problem which I'm hoping you can help me sort out. I've read the "read me first" thread and done a forum search so apologies if this ends up being a repost. Ok, so I've just has a bloody mouse chew through the rear seat and half (but only half) of every rear seatbelt. Which is nice. So I need to replace them. The problem I appear to have is that none of the local breakers have any suitable vehicles that I can pull them from and the ones I ordered and was sent from the bay of fleas has the wrong brackets on, despite being allegedly for that vehicle. Further searches come up with every seller showing the wrong bracket, so either I've got a special car which is different just because, or (more likely) they don't know their ****s from their elbows what they're selling. I'm after some aftermarket ones as they never get used and just need to be there to get through rego so don't really want to spend a heap of cash I don't have on genuine parts if I can avoid it. I've replaced the centre one (a mate just randomly had it in a box in his shed, which was handy) but still need the left and right. I've attached the bracket type I pulled from the car and need. Is this a standard generic Toyota seatbelt or specific to the 2007 Corolla sedan? Does is need to be specifically for the rear left and right or do front ones fit? Does anyone know where I can source an aftermarket pair? I will really, really appreciate any help offered with this, I know my way around a box of tools but very little about mechanikicing (which is part of the reason why I bought this car - something simple to learn on as repairs/replacements become due) and this is a simple fix which is turning into a drawn out headache. Thanks - Matt

      Hi from Wagga

      Hi folks, I'm in Wagga, have what I thought was a nice, cheap and reliable 2007 Corolla, and am joining in the hope of picking the collective brain to troubleshoot and avoid tossing my computer and the relevant car parts out of the nearest window. I'll play nice and restrict the swearing to off line areas :D See you on the threads! Cheers Matt

      Amplifier 88650-60D60 no longer made

      Hi all, Wondering if anyone has had this issue. I recently purchased a 2007 200 series landcruiser, and the amplifier for the air con unit stopped working. Part number 88650-60D60. (Looks like a circuit board) All controls for the air con now do not work, very frustrating in winter when you dont have any way to unfog your windscreen. Toyota have informed me that they no longer produce this part, and there is nothing superseeded to fit in it's place. My question is has anyone had this problem? If so what did you do to fix it? I have got onto an auto sparky who has had a go at fixing the circuit board but its unserviceable. Any feedback would be much appreciated.

      Engine oil dipstick reading

      Hi guys, Probably a silly question... I'm having trouble reading my engine oil dipstick on my Toyota Hilux 2010 3.0 Turbo Diesel. I have warmed up the engine, turned off for ~10 minutes, parked on a level surface. Pulled out the dipstick, wipe it and insert it back to the bottom and carefully lift it up. I tried so many times and the two sides always look different. I couldn't read it. Maybe I just don't understand how to read it. Could someone help? Thanks a lot!!!
