Welcome and salutations in return. Are you a regular JDM or are you in Japan for work on a permanent basis?

A bridge ported 12a in an RX2 was the best fun I have had on 4 wheels in years.

You must post some pics of the Lux and the Madz's for us to ogle.

Enjoy

      Thanks Ash for the post mate, I watched this last night and he really explained it well how a simple thing can be so very very expensive when it is designed for use and not for servicing. I recommend watching this as well for all who have a HVAC issue in their Toyota's or Lexus and as always he is the GURU for both KAA

      2015 RAV4 Rear Bumper Cover Removal & Installation

      Hi all. I am hoping someone can advise where I can find the instructions to remove the rear bumper cover on a 2015 Rav4 GX model and to install a new one. I am aware I will need to unclip the harness for the sensors. I assume I will need to remove the sensors from the old cover to the new one. How are the sensors secured and how do I remove them? Any advice and tips would be most appreciated. Thank you

      FUEL WARNING MESSAGE

      Glad you got it sorted Geoff. I think I got a win on mine too. I ended up replacing the entire unit inside the fuel tank. The pump was working but was very sick sounding. Also, the filter was very dirty too. I supposed it's to be expected after 14 years. What I can say is that I think some fuel was being pumped from the rear tank, but I think between the filter and the sick pump, it was not enough to empty the rear tank could empty quick enough. Maybe replacing the filter could have gotten me over the line, but I didn't want to have to do the job again. Perhaps if I was selling the car, I might have a different opinion. Its half a day that I won't forget anytime soon. I think I ended up with more diesel on me than on the ground....

      Centre Bearing Replacement

      Hey, Ive installed a new centre bearing on my 2000 model 2.7ltr Hilux. I replaced it due to a shuttering feeling coming from the drive shaft. After I replaced it I could smell the rubber burning and the shutter came back. Looked at the bearing and it has way too much play in it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Cheers
