It does however suit the car. I'd smash you if you put a 5-spoke design like that one on yours.

Had an Aurion come in for Service the other day with a TRD badge on a Sportivo, I asked him why when he came to pick it up he was like "So I could ***** of the TRD drivers".

Thanks Andrew, finally, one person agrees. It does suit the car, however they aren't that appealing to the eye. I couldn't imagine seeing a high number spoke wheels on my car.

Geez guys, haven't gotten around to it yet. Ill get some toyota caps for it. But thoughts on the actually wheels themselves?

For mightymods fans, Its the "TRD BEAMER"

IMHO - first of all, they weren't always black right? Who painted them? is ur car still wet from washing or is that the paint job? If its not distorted by water and that's how it looks dry then u need to sand them back and respray them... just an opinion and its hard to tell from the photo...

secondly - technically wouldn't it be an M1 Corolla? seeing as the bulk of the car is Toyota? Definately swap over the centre caps... even some generic no-name ones... don't need toyota ones unless u really want... but it does detract from it...

overall the car is starting to look better - just needs more low and some other bits and pieces now... lol...

if i sell mine before u start doing too much to urs i'll let u know because i have a few bits and pieces that would go alright on urs...

They are black, but that's how I bought them. Only got them on Thursday afternoon. I'll be sanding them back and spraying them properly. They didn't even have an undercoat. I think I'll just spray straight over the BMW center caps. Just complete black face. And yea stew. That is water on the car. But I'll still be sanding them back and starting again. It does need more low. But I don't know how it will go with those wheels.

We thought you'd turned Salmon on us. Kedron?

Had a customer come in today who needed a new Engine in an Aurion; lesson to anyone, Change your god damn oil!

She's up for $15,000 for a new engine + labour.

Was she one of the "I didn't know it needed to be changed" people?

She never had to maintain her 'old' car in the united states and thought she wouldn't have to on a 'new' car.

She skipped two or three services. :(

He can still work for Toyota and be a Salmon.

      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!!! :)
