Hello Everyone,

My name is Kyle, Im from Brissy and pretty much love cars.

I currently own a Nissan R33 GTR Vspec with 455hp at the treads as my daily driver.

About a month ago I was given a 1972 Toyota Corona 4 door with a 12R 4 speed.

The car was originally my Great Uncle's, Who when he moved into a retirement home he gave the car to my Pop.

My Pop about 2 weeks before he passed away gave me the Corona with the 1 condition "I look after it".

So with that my next goal is to get the car out of the current filth it is in, and clean it up.

The car has the original plastic wrappings around the sun visors.

I need to drop the oil, change oil filter, put air in the tires and do the brakes.

It is sitting in about 1mm of dust but it had been well looked after before it took its place in the shed 3 years ago and my pop just couldn't do it.

Welcome to the club mate. It is always a good feeling to hold on to memories of previous generations.

I hope you can do your Pop proud. It is always good to have a good old Toyota as the basis for such a project.

Hope is lives up to your hopes for it

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      Gents, I want to narrow down possible cause, as I'm not a pro... - I can lock/unlock all 4 doors with key. - I can LOCK all doors with fob, when unlocking with fob, driver's doors stays locked. I found the small plastic hatch on door panel which moves when you lock/unlock doors wont move properly when locking/unlocking. Is this likely to be a mechanical issue? Should I just put some grease on cords inside the doors? Or issue could be with locking actuator? Thanks for replies! Cheers. Martin

      Electrical issues with the 300 series

      This has happened to me. Last week screens went blank at on cruise cont @110klm/hr then instantly rebooted. Car decelerated i presume as it lost cruise control. Today went to start and everything went black no response. Keys didnt work all electricals seem dead. Open and close doors and it rebooted to accessories mode. As soon as i pressed the start button it went dead again. Went back to accessories mode after opening doors and i spent 45 mins on the phone to Toyota on speaker phone. The car announced it was turning accessories mode off to save battery screens went blank andi then tried again and it started!

      Check Hybrid System warning

      Hi. My 2017 Camry hybrid keeps popping up the “check hybrid system” warning often after simply putting the car into drive from park. A quick battery disconnect clears the error but it’s very annoying. Has anyone had this problem and found out what’s causing it?
