i was thinking of getting one of these, what u guys think? my unlce just got one for his dc2R i dunno if it was that that made his engine temp real low? it just just about cold maybe it was the spoon thermostat.. not sure anyways it seems to be good? any comments? this just reduces the temperature of the air reaching the engine as there is less heat transfer between the engine and the intake manifold...

I don't like doing this but.... it do a quick search for Hondata...

This has been discussed before...

There are a few guys (3) that I know of that have these but only Craig (Danthuyer) has it installed. Apparrently there are some very minor modifications that have to be made to the heatshield for it to fit properly. but have a look and see what you cna find :) :D

exactly right

you dont get power gains as such. but the intake manifold remains cooler than a car without the hondata. if you go to the hondata site and have a read its all there.

I noticed at the CES dyno day that i could hold onto the minfold pipes for a second on my car after a run. On a car without the shield you could barely touch the pipes.

The figures are there on the site. If you want one then go get it ;) just becareful when installing

Big bump here...

I for the life of me can't find anything on what needs to be done with modifying the heatshield to be ready to install it into my sportivo.

For those in the know, or who have installed it, can someone tell me about what needs to be modified to get it to fit?

Thanks in advance.

It's a right royal pain in the A55 and something i was gonna do but to pull the entire intake off the engine and drop belts etc to get to bolts on ridiculous angles to put a gasket in wasn't worth the effort.

But if you want to pay your mechanic to do it he'll love you :clap::toast:

Funny you say that, one of my mates works for Toyota, but I don't think he'd want to do it after seeing what you wrote.

What belts have to come off?

Edit: Can't spell for sh!t.

      Hi Alim, just open your glove box and the button is on the side, you can't miss it. If you don't see a button then you don't have a power tail gate.

      Stereo upgrade

      Does anyone know if any antitheft protocol will activate if I remove the original stereo to upgrade to a multimedia head unit? I have an 06 Kluger CVX, a pretty basic model with not steering wheel controls or anything like that. Cheers.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      MN: ZZE122R Engine: 1ZZ-FE Hi, I'm currently in the final stages of researching about boosting my car which I'm finding is incredibly expensive but oh well car people aren't sensible people. I was looking to make this car a sort of daily but take it to the track and car meets. Anyways I was just looking around at other forums and I couldn't find any that described the type of mods required for a certain power level as I don't want to spend a heap of money when I don't need to however I want to make it kinda reliable so idk. My power goals are between 275-350hp running E85, here are the engine internals I want to upgrade: Monkey Wrench Racing (MWR) 1ZZ-FE Engine Rebuild - Forged Rods, ARP Main and Head Studs, Ported, Upgraded valves, stock 10:1 CR Turbo - GTX2860R Fueling - MWR Injectors 630cc, AEM fuel Pump 340lph, (might do flex fuel), Intake - Billet Centre fed intake, Haltech DBW conversion Boost control - (I'm not too sure what to buy) Intercooler - (Anything that'll fit) I hope I wasn't too vague, I was asking a tuner in my area called Tunehouse (lovely people btw) and all they said was you might have to run a bit of boost so I'm not too sure how to interpret that in this context. Any advice will help, thanks.

      2ZR Turbo

      hey mate, car is back on the road. been daily driving it since may. issues that i currently have are fuel leak, afr gauge not working and no boost in first. fuel leak was a result of me removing the fuel pump to see if i upgrade the stock one. still need to diagnose afr gauge as the rest of the sensors from the multi gauge work. worst comes to worst, i will just run a separate afr gauge. no boost in first should be fixed by tune. car still is currently untuned but hoping to get that done before the end of the year. havent had any issues with police so far. driven past a few highway patrol cars and normal police cars. my car isnt really red hot however intercooler is quite visible. just dont hoon and my guess is you should be fine. i will eventually get an engineering certificate for the build just to save me the headache in the future when dealing with police

      Snapping wheel and axle studs

      G'day my names Ben, first post as I am at a loose end after 2years of trial and error with today seeing my rear wheel sail by me, luckily as I just pulled up. History - 75 Series 1990 model with 730K on the clock, about rebuilt this cruiser but have conundrum I cannot figure out. Broke 6 sets of axle studs in 2 years (bought it 2years ago). Tensioned nuts at 25nm, the nuts come loose every 2 days 200km, only on the drivers side. I would re-tension them but diff oil would leak out due to the gasket tearing due to losening. Take it on the sand but rarely offroad, 95% driving is my run around, only ever broke them on the road and usually at high speed, freeway etc. I have replaced hub, bearings, even got a new drivers side axle as thought maybe slightly bent. Finally decided to drill and tap the right rear hub out to 10mm to fit 105 series studs, also gone through 2 hubs prior. This was 2 weeks and about 600km ago and then today my left wheel came off when 1 wheel stud snapped holes elongated on the steelies and wheel nuts ripped off. Had 1 person say it could be a bent diff housing. Ok if it is but also $2K for a new housing, something I am hesitant to do if it isn't the issue. I do have non standard wheel/tyres on it that are heavier than usual but surely it can handle that? Anyone ever heard this before? When buying the car it came with spare axles, now thinking it's been a long standing issue with this old girl, just lookin for answers and how to test the issue for what t is before I part with the $$ and find out it not the issue. Hoping someone with experience has seen this. Thanks!

      Fuel filter change - start stops running

      Check your fuel lines to the filter. The factory clamps are designed for quick removal but sometime come lose enough to allow air. I replaced all mine with 'worm drive' clamps.

      Wobble at the front

      Vibration under acceleration is quite commonly due to a failing CV axle. I had it happen on my old Aurion where coasting would be fine and under acceleration/load it would start to vibrate quite violently.

      Brake issues

      Had the rear rotors machined. So far have travelled under 10k kms and the problem has come back, albeit not as bad. Will have a chat with the guy who machined the rotors and DBA also. Maybe need to replace with genuine Toyota items.
