Thanks for the compliments guys, it is a pretty awesome thing to drive.

As for you Marky Mark, I better keep my cards close to my chest with snapping at my tail lol

Sack your mechanics too, if they can't find where to pick up a boost signal on your TRD :D

Yeah, he's been the only reliable machanic I've used so far. we probably didn't even try that hard

The car is a daily driver and I need to just pop in and pop out straight away and get back to concrete polishing.

The other morons around Melbourne need the car for a few days because they can't organise their timetable.

I'm getting the smaller pulley fitted in a week or two. Will post the results.

Looked into the Nitrous but am a bit sketchy about blowing the car up.

Have you looked into upgrading the intercooler? I think its a pretty efficient system at the moment.

I was only making enquiries about getting an lsd fitted. Surely you struggle to keep your tyres on the tarmac.

My 24's spin like crazy. Already had a fine off the cops for not controlling vehicle, when I smoked it around a corner to get into heavy traffic.

So what is the RWKW tally up to now, I'm stuck on 235 RWKW

Anyone done an work to the TRD Aurion? My sister has one and it hammers on a cold night.

Marky Mark,

You should start a thread for your hilux, will be easier to keep a track of then.

Certainly sounds like it is making some power, you should put your dyno sheet up.

Have you ever run yours down the quarter?

Marky Mark yes pls start a thread :) Is your traction problem from standing starts? it may be as simple as weight transfer.

I would imagine those units are pretty stiff suspension wise.

Will start a thread tonight, no quarter miles yet.

The 24's had less grip than the stockies, got the stockies on now, they are a bit better

but yes, only on takeoff is traction a problem. I should now how to drive it better but in the heat of battle its easy to

slam the foot down. Its too easy for eveyone else with traction control.

I think the new model SR5 lux's come out with factory traction control.

Those radials looked mean Jap, how much did they sting you for those?

Well,

It has been a while....little bit of work done here and there...and in response to the above, data logs taken today show a 0-100 time of 5.57 secs on all terrain tyres lol

So it is still a fun thing to drive.

Next thing, I'll be in Brisbane after Labour Day weekend, looking to hit the Test n Tune at Willowbank on the 9th May.

Pretty excited, racing at a DECENT track for a change, will be good to see the difference in times (if any lol)

So give us a yell if you're keen, I'd like to catch up with some of you guys.

Long time between drinks guys.

The chrome rims were a bit loud for me so I just got them sprayed in satin black. Best move ever, they always look clean no matter what.

Jumping on the end of an old thread as well, hoping for a bit of help.

I have just bought a TRD supercharger. We will be pulling it off a Hilux this week.

I will be putting it onto my 2005 120 Prado (VX V6 auto).

The current owner has a new unused TRD ECU. Does anyone know if I can straight swap this for the existing ECU? 

Also does anyone know a good tuning place in Sydney that has experience with the TRD system?

You will probably be the only peson to ever try this, so don't expect a definitive response.

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      I did the mathematics myself regarding costs vs benefits for fuel injector cleaner. I have changed from 91ULP to 95PULP and 98PULP. Price difference can be about 13 -20 cents. Compared to 91ULP, Premium quality fuel should have a better quality additive package designed to have superior engine cleaning capabilities so the engine can perform at their best.

      "Fuel injector cleaner is a waste of money" Only if you by the cheap crap if you use LiquMolly a German Product it does work and you won't waste your Money.
