Injen CAI + 3A Racing pod filter + Simota oil = :spiteful:

Like BGPete said you do lose a bit of response in the low rev range but gain some mass suckage. So far no levin ZR installs have had any problems to date except in the beginning. Although an ascent zre member's install still did and threw CEL (Check engine light) consistently. This was eliminated by using electrical spray on the maf sensor *beware MAF sensor very sensitive* and pod filter oil for us Levin owners. The ascent still couldnt be rectified. <_<

Install took approx 3hrs (DIY + 1st time install + being careful)

I ended up changing the pod to 3A Racing seeing as its rate highly for flow/filtration and oiled it. The 3A Racing pod also helped in eliminated any further CEL. Lasted 2-3 cruises, 2 track days and still going strong and no CEL to this day. :D

Thank you so much for the images!! Really need them :)

Why is it so hard to find a good CAI for an accent?

Definitely will meet up with you guys one day once I've put in a CAI.

Those pics are cool i have been waiting for 3a pod filter to come in stock for 2 months, and still waiting for it, wondering if taking out the front bumper is difficult for DIY? Don't wanna mess up any clips. :P

Not hard at all to find a CAI. Us older (ZRE) owners have done all the hard work and guessing. Have a look at the ZRE FAQ and under 'Air Intake Mods'.

Charlie (flipsta) is selling both his Injen CAI and WeaponR intake. If you're interested, PM him.

If you want to go for brand new:

Injen - get from ebay. Make sure it's for 1.8L 4cylinder. If you're uncertain, post it below and we'll have a look; let you know if it will fit. :)

CES Racing - contact BG Pete or CES directly.

WeaponR - order through WeaponR dealer/website.

DIY - make your own!

Where are you buying the 3A pod from? The link I gave above?

Taking off the front bumper is not hard. Read this for a bit of info.

hey guys, im currently looking into getting the satisfaction carbon chamber intake for my zre. quite pricey but getting quotes around town and hopefully will get it. apparantly the company "SATISFACTION" said their intake does not fit the 1.8L corolla/auris and only fits the 1.5L version. However, if its same engine bay and i've seen pictures of it on a 1.8L auris over in japan on the minkara website, it will fit no doubt right? or would there some sort of thing that the intake wont work on the 1.8L?

anyone got views?

I heard CES produce one with the most gains, not only that, it's all produced here in AUS as well..

I suggest checking it out.. I'm not 100 percent sure on gains though, I think it was for the ZZE but yeah, if someone can confirm please do, all hateful comments are appreciated

Quick question, notice that the facelift Corolla that the MAF sensor is actually on the air box itself. Would the installation process say for the injen CAI be the same?

I'm thinking that a new MAF sensor is required?

I went to CES in QLD and they had it done within a day. It's not cheap, but I have yet to have any CEL errors. Contact me via PM if you want more info and pics.

Additional: They never took the front bar off to get mine installed.

Yeah, that's where I got mine from; not sure of where else. Call CES up and see what they can do. BG Pete has got a custom made CAI from CES.

ZRE hatch & sedan have the same chassis. A member already has a Injen CAI on his sedan. See his thread here. :)

you can buy it, its from this site, but its about 550 AUD shipped. quite pricey.

here's a pic of it installed on a 1.8L auris in japan

Hey guys, I'm thinking about hitting up a Injen CAI for my '11 Corolla hatch and was wondering if the correct product # is SP2079P (polished one)? For the MY10 and MY11, due to the MAF sensor being attached to the stock airbox, is there anything additional that I need to buy / do to get the CAI installed? And is there any where that someone could recommend (in Melbourne) for me to go get this thing installed? I really don't feel comfortable installing it myself. Cheers guys!

      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.
