Hey guys - great recon run :D Loving those photos!

I reckon leave the plan as is and have lunch at Sky High, I know we could do a bbq but it just saves the hassle of bringing it all and packing up afterwards, make some other buggers cook and clean up lol Paying a deposit shouldn't be too bad, surely it doesn't have to be a large one? At any rate there is now plenty of time to chip in, and we have quite a few definites :)

The bbq idea would be great! Save money, easier to socialise but the only issue would be melbournes weather!

But that being said, im down with whatever fellas

..can we just avoid as much speed bumps as possible? hahaha.

No worries, but it shouldnt be an issue. I might actually lower the car even more just for this meet if i can find the spare time. VIP styles (Y)

Oh by the way fellas, my name is Reece. Would be good to meet all of you for the first time (Y)

Excellent update to the first post Johnny :D Great to have all the details locked in so people can get themselves organised - it'll be a great group of cars and a great day, we're all a good bunch of people so I don't reckon we'll have any problems sticking together :) Will be nice to have a gentler cruise and catch-up with some photos and finish off with a bit of driving :D

And hooray I won't be the only Camry :D (Although Lawrence was there last time with the Gen 5)

haha Farnsworth FTW! :D

Im thinking a bbq would be better suited provided weather is ok. Doesnt take much to throw a few snags on. Allow for 2 sausages and bread per person. So get around 50 snags

and have a small 50c donation for each sausage... Money can go to the person who buys the snags and what not.

All you need is sausages, bread, tongs and oil. Easy done. Good way to socialise too.

What are others thoughts?

Thanks man, appreciate it :)

shin0bi, I've been living in the broady area for almost 5 years and I have never seen your car. I always come across the same Skyline's etc and the muzza's in there hotted up two door's. They are hard to forgot. :rolleyes:

edit: If I come on a meet up just be prepared to look at a stocky Aurion. My only mod's in the near(hint) future would be a system. :lol:

Yeah well that's true, I guess if we keep it simple then it's not so hard to do/pack-up. Someone will just have to pack a nice big esky for the snags hehehe And then everyone could just byo drinks and maybe a snack to share? Oh and someone bring some paper towel to clean the bbq lol

edit: If I come on a meet up just be prepared to look at a stocky Aurion. My only mod's in the near(hint) future would be a system. :lol:

Doesn't matter whether your car is hotted up beyond belief or stock as a rock, we're all there to enjoy each other's company and appreciate each others rides all the same :) It's a great way to meet like-minded people and swap information, I know I have picked the guys brains regarding mods to the Camry and will continue to do so heheheh So please come along! :)

And Lee, stoked that you can make it - I've gotta see those Buddy Club's up close again :D

PWOR! i never knew there was a 15 day forecast. goes to show how accurate technology can be these days... or not <_< the news cant even get the 7 day forecast right :angry:

also, maybe better to have a forecast in the dandenong ranges, its bound to be a couple or more degrees cooler :)

if the sausages have the go, i'm happy to go buy stuff i'll just divide by whoever comes on the day. thats bread (white + wholemeal) + sauages (low fat? :P ) + sauce (bbq + tomato) + tongs + butter + pot scourer + tissues/napkins and blah anything else? :P

Haha yeah, i noticed that that i can be accurate 50% of the time but usually it changes closer to the date.

Is there adequate shelter in the bbq area? Maybe a club vote on where we should eat would settle this? Add a poll or something to this topic maybe?

      Anyone else tried these seat covers ?

      these seat covers look pretty good, but I've had bad experience when trying to fit some cheaper ones I bought online - they say custom fit, anyone else tried them ? Would love to know before I buy them, thanks all https://mycustomcar.com.au/

      am2 fuse blowing

      Hello, i have a 1996 starlet The problem is when i turn the key the fuse blows, and i have been looking over the wiring and can’t find any shorts or damaged wire. The car would not crank over because of the fise blowing. I found out that if i disconnect the transponder key ecu the fuse is holding, but as soon as i connect the transponder the fuse blows. So i wonder if there is something I can try out? should i just buy a new transponder box or is it something else i could try? and is it not kinda wierd that the box is the problem? I have looked inside the box and cant see any corrosion in the box

      Toyota Celica '96 5S-FE no spark

      Hi everyone, I have spent too much time on my Celica and even my mechanic is stumped at figuring out the issue so any tips will be appreciated. Here is what has been done, immobiliser disbabled, distributor replaced, igniter replaced, EFI relay replaced, and EFI 15AMP fuse is not blown. I tried jumping E1 and TE1 in the diagnostic port to try and get a code from the CEL but it doesn't light up, I think it might be burned out so I will have to get on that. I am now clueless about what to do next, it could be the ECU but I can't find any pointers too that.

      GR Corolla GTS Issues

      Update: Somerton Park Jarvis Toyota had the car for a full 9 hours and said they didn't test most of the faults then refused to give me the paper work. Andy the service guy and his manager Tim were dismissive and said they wouldnt investigate the problems. They said the adaptive cruise control braking is a known issue. They confirmed Android Auto wireless will not work with this model which is not what the sales guy told me i was very specific in my wording as i wanted to make sure wireless android auto was supported and was told yes it is supported. They said they cant test unless the car is hot and want me to drive for 90 minutes to 2 hours before bringing it in. Ive dealt with CMI Toyota over the last 5+ years and have had great dealings but this dealership seems like the other end of the spectrum. Upon getting home i noticed the right rear mag has been curbed. This dealership seems really untrustworthy.

      GR Corolla GTS Issues

      Anyone else with a GR Corolla having issues like these? Just had mine for 2 weeks from Somerton Park - Jarvis Toyota and having heaps of issues with the car unfortunately. Its booked in to be checked out tomorrow, but they were meant to test the car prior to delivery of the vehicle. The AWD issues seem to be common to the corolla when i do a quick google search? Issues with Nov 2022 GR Corolla GTS IMT is not functioning after 30 minutes. Light is on but wont match revs on down shift. This is reproducible - happens every single time imt is turned on. Some noise and thud/clunking can feel it occasionally when turning right. Changing gears the drivetrain makes a thud can feel a clunking sound. AWD system issues? Clutch to the floor and gears are crunching going into 2nd and 3rd was after driving for roughly 90 minutes first long drive on Thursday. Has happened again since then. Pressing accelerator revs go up but no acceleration then feels spongy and not responsive? Even when pressing accelerator pedal harder there is no acceleration. Seems to occur when car is hot. Was told by sales that Android Auto wireless will work. It will not work with my Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra - it fails to pair and start then endlessly fails in a loop trying to pair. The software is the latest version on my android phone and have updated car via wifi with the Toyota October 24 updates. Could that have caused other issues when the Toyota update was applied? Music stops playing when going over bumps or speed bumps - this is both annoying and dangerous to press start again when driving and not stationary, happens multiples times each day on commute to/from work… Adaptive cruise control brakes hard sometimes or basically comes to a crawl when there is a car next to you or a parked car or object even though you are 1m+ away from them with current trajectory of the vehicle so no possible collision with the cars/objects. I don't like going from 60 to 30 for no real reason, this happens too often - seems way over tuned for avoidance. I never experienced anything like this with Adaptive cruise control in my 2018 XT Forester. Wind down the passenger window after the car has been wet/rinsed - about 150-200ml water drained down onto the door trim!! i can't even see where that much water could be stored/pooling. So far it seems like this car is a Lemon lol

      New Vehicle Key Remotes

      I've had 2 services and still no 2nd key. Service has no idea and says talk to sales. You'd think they were separate entities. Its nows 14 mths and still nothing. On delivery they gave 12mths roadside assist. That's ok except i had 9ths left on my old car that got trasfered and couldn't be pro rated. They didn't extend roadside asist when there was still no sign of key. If I could get onto Toyota I would but like delivery times they push you onto the dealers.... hopeless!!!
