I'd be keen as mustard for a Lyell Hwy run. Might be even worth talking to the rest of the ToyoTAS boys, see if we can get a joint cruise happening maybe? Though the weathers been a bit iffy lately.

Hey Chris,

Ha-ha good stuff looks like we'll have to do it then, few other guys keen to do it too, Couple from work and some mates. yeah i had thought about putting it out there on ToyoTAS but since it's a little bit i don’t know "Hit and miss" if you like gets busy on there then goes a bit quiet so wasn’t sure how it'd go down lol but don’t suppose it can hurt to put it out there hay might interest a few of the northern guys. Would be good to show some of the boys what an Aurion can actually do as i suspect they don't really rate them lol

I see my car as nothing more than an A to B, in fact I havent even washed it since December - if it wasnt for the rain it would look really filthy lol. But I am always surprised and impressed by how smooth it is and how effortlessly it overtakes, it has lots of space and the handling is better than you think.

To reply to this one again; does my Aurion still still surprise me? I would have to say everyday.

Even after settling into my TRD, I still get that nice feeling every time I put my foot down. Even though it has been ages since I have driven a non-TRD, I can still notice the difference.

And now that some fairly cold weather has kicked in, the surprises just keep on coming. The TRD certainly loves it WAY more than the Sportivo.

i have to agree with you daryl... even after almost 2yrs (i think) of having this car, it still surprises me...

i think its cause i drive it below 3000rpm most days cause i'm going to work and back on the freeway...

and then when i put my foot down on the odd occassion i find myself feeling like its more powerful all of a sudden! :lol:

same with the handling... took the exit ramp for my house at 80km/h last night and thought i was going to die... but it just had crazy amount of grip... to be honest, i think if i wasnt so scared of crashing it, i could get so much more out of the car and the setup... :lol:

right now the car has way more confidence than i do! HAHAHAHA

      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!!! :)
