hey guys and girls

as above. noise when i shift gears (this video is from 1st to 2nd in lift). maybe this noise has been talked about before but i think its not a "crunching" noise or whatever. it happens sometimes and only when i press clutch and it's from 1st to neutral.

this is the sole reason why i cannot quick shift from 1st to 2nd in lift.

bad news for gear box? or should i just depress the clutch at least 1/2 second before i shift/change the clutch to HD clutch? any suggstions would be great

cheers guys

I watched the video and don't hear anything out of the ordinary. I test drove your car 3 weeks ago and your gear box seems so much smoother than mine on 1st and 2nd gears (all gears to be exact). No crunching at all when shifting in Lift. I couldnt believe how soft and easy it was.

Also, your shifter makes a clicking sound. Is it an aftermarket mod your friend had installed when he owned the car? The last time I had driven a car with clicks when shifting, was in a pulsar sss (N13) and a mr2 (AW11).

I also installed a TWM SS package into my mate's '03 stivo and his gearbox feels as soft and silky as yours do even with the metal base and gear selector cable bushings. Looks like both of you are very lucky to shift gears effortlessly - "dainty gear shifting"

sounds like clutch is dragging

thanks for the reply guys. i researched abit on google and clutch dragging maybe caused by movement in the engine by worn engine mounts. Yes my front engine mount is worn and getting changed to poly urethane mounts today and hopefully that will fix the problem :)

There's no way the engine mounts can cause a dragging clutch. You need to adjust the clutch master pushrod up under the dash.

I think it may be the Syncros in your gearbox had a similar noise from my old AE112 could possibly be that.

He doesn't mean poly mounts. He means poly mount inserts.

so with this clutch dragging i get... if it happens frequently... what parts will i be damaging apart from the clutch and gearbox? and in gear box would it specifically 1st gear? the 1st gear would be the strongest gear so it wouldn't be that easy to damage right?

Go and have the Clutch push rod adjusted or at first adjust your pedal as i did , it solved all of the annoying issues i had with day to day driving in the car..

with this push rod... i saw a diy in the workshop section... but when i change my clutch i might get the extended push rod from monkey wrench so it never does drag again. its annoying not to be able to stay in lift :angry:

still i might pay my mechanic to do it... saves me from stuffing things up <_<

      OK. Does any of Toyota's advertising material mention Android Auto? If so then kick up a stink, with Toyota management, about misrepresentation and false advertising, reminding them of the hefty fines. Herb

      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.
