I realise I am probably the only bottom grill member who has done more than mesh it................ So I can claim stakes to being it's President, Advisor and Groupie.

Damn shes hot. I like the bottom grill. At first I was going to say no because it looks out of place but pictures never do justice and I'm sure in real life it really looks good.

Seeing pictures like this really gets me to want to start with some cosmetic mods as well.

Looks great man. Holy fuq she is shiny.

I don't want to rain on your parade, but a member by the name of BONDIE takes the crown for that. He actually used a modified Thai chrome grill for his.

Thanks People! Hope to see more bottom grill inventions soon.

BTW about the shininess, its all the colour of the car. Would you believe I havnt waxed in over 3 months and she lives outside?

great looking car HT.

Has anyone taken out the black surrounds under the grill and the surrounds for the driving lights on an at-x and left them blank? Are there any major trade offs in airflow or legality? :huh:

That turned out real good, HT. Very impressive.

Same way, but not sure how good it would look considering the lack of other chrome.

I have taken them both off and the car looks like it came off a trash heap without them. It would be legal but there would be no airflow or cooling benefits at all so why bother?

Same way, but not sure how good it would look considering the lack of other chrome.

I Agree.

haha well still half keen to colour code the black sections?? i have a spare front to try it on too :)

Nope. I'm content.

But I think a colour coded bottom grill on a stivo might be nice. Depends on rest of the front.

Yeah I’m keen to give it a crack, but your right it would depend on the rest if the grill. i have just the standard grill, i wouldn’t mind changing the grill and meshing the lower section but i just haven’t found a grill I’m totally happy with just yet ;)

      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.

      Best Oil for 2014 Lancruiser GXL 200 series TT V8 Diesel

      Hi Ross, we have a 2013 Landcruiser. Played with various oils and concluded that 5W30 Synthetic is the best option. Nulon seems to be on special often, GW is also good. Castrol Magnatec not really suitable for a diesel. Penrite is also good but try and stick to a full synthetic. No real need to change oil at 5000 Kms unless you worked the engine towing. I found that the oil level dropped when using the gearbox to slow down like you do in a manual. Other then that no oil use at 140k kms. Best oil is AMSOIL, but unduly expensive. Controversial but I swear by it is a 'catch can'. If you don't have one, get one but the right one for the car. Initially I was skeptical about its purpose but am sorry I did not get one from the beginning (new). If you check the design of the engine, the cam chain run just below the PCV valve. IMHO this promotes oils being flung into the PCV valve and hence the inlet tract. A catch can will catch that oil - no pun intended.

      rear wheel arch hole covers (3rd row seats removed)

      I ordered the Booxe Gap Caps from South Africa. Way better quality than the ones from Nautica. A little more expensive but looks way better installed. FYI one 3rd row seat weighs 15.4kg's that's a weight saving of nearly 31kgs with both removed.

      2013 Kluger grande Bluetooth music issues

      I have a 2011 Grande and it is not possible to play music via the bluetooth without using the aux connection. I bought this product which makes it a wireless bluetooth experience. https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B0BG2GMH8S?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title This device connects to your phone via bluetooth and connects to the car via the aux connection. For me, once the car starts it all connects up, I say Hey Google, play music and the car plays music without having to connect my phone to any cables.

      2010 MANUAL Prado with high speed acceleration hickup

      I have a 2010 manual Prado with 196,000 km that has excellent service history Injectors were done at 130,000 km and today I replaced the fuel filters as a first step for this issue. The car pretty well drives perfectly and I have no issues with it Other than if I'm sitting at 110 km an hour and put my foot down it hesitates for a second like a cough. It only does it at this speed. If I'm sitting on 100 and accelerate it doesn't do it and same with any other speeds like 60 or 80 put my foot down it's fine, only does it at 110. Any ideas or help would be appreciated. Thank you

      Fuel filter change - start stops running

      We recently completed a service a few weeks ago. Following this, a warning light indicated water in the filter. We replaced the filter, but subsequently encountered starting issues. After replacing the battery, the car eventually started. However, after running for about five minutes, it stalled as if it had run out of diesel. We have primed the filter, engine starts but then car stops again. Any advice would be greatly appreciated

      Best Oil for 2014 Lancruiser GXL 200 series TT V8 Diesel

      My 2008 Sahara has 630,000 km on original engine and injectors. I run Gulf Western Top Dog 10w 40 semi synthetic oil, spec is CJ4 low Ash . Last EGR inspection at 400,000km revealed no soot. Engine still has same oil pressure as new and great fuel economy....Top Dog oil is for heavy duty truck diesel engines, not cheap but neither is a new engine..20K plus.
