The same one that came with it.... which is no different to a normal Aurion. Or any alternative battery that fits an Aurion according to your budget.

I think you need a battery to meet or equal the manufacturer's requirements of the aurion due to dimensions and "cranking amps", meeting the number is generally sufficient, while people who live in cold climates may want the extra protection of a battery that exceeds the requirements. All this means is a smaller battery may not have the power/amps to crank the engine over. Look for a decent warranty, date of manufacture and stay clear of batteries that have been on the shelf for a while

Most good retailers will have spec books on what battery you need.

Love the facepalm lol

I have had good experience with Century Heavy Duty batteries in the past, good price & excellent warranty replacement when i got it from battery world here in Perth.

I had one that after 12 months of the 2 year warranty a cell had died and when they tested it with there little electronic tester found it to be elligable for replacement.

They changed it on the spot :D

and should be in your price range :)

When i searched their website it came up with these 2 - http://www.centurybatteries.com.au/search/index.php/models/ID-1888

Notice the 55D23L on the White sticker on my battery. Shows that the Toyota OEM battery is no different to the standard Century battery so they haven't done a dodgy on us. That said, even the standard Century battery is quite reliable. I still have the factory one and 4 years and 4 months on, it is still going strong and starts the car flawlessly.

Century supply TMCA there batteries for Altona and of course supply the dealer network there spare parts batteries. Century do some pretty decent test on their Toyota supplied batteries and have very good after sales service and not to mention great performance so you'd be nuts not to go for another 55D23L or higher performing Century product espcially if you have an aftermarket sound system. :)

So I lost everything I was typing to post here, so here is the pic and 15% of what I originally typed ...

Bought a sealed battery (right) for my project car (imagine an Ariel Atom), which is using an Aurion 2GR-FE as a donor (left):

797375df.jpg

Went from 15.1 to 7.0kg, including metal jacket.

Alternate battery technologies (such as this, being Absorbed Glass Mat or AGM) can have a lower CCA spec, but deliver great cranking power - the above is rated 170 CCA, but delivers 520A for 5 seconds (which is enough for me).

The manufacturer recommendation for a V6 Camry (by physical size being plug and play) is for an 850 CCA (1500A for 5 seconds) unit.

Can be mounted in any direction and uses very little space.

Started the engine straight out of the box ... no turning over, the engine just went from OFF to ON.

Battery service life is roughly double that of a lead acid equivalent.

I know I'm using this in more of a Motorsport environment ... but the future will be all about batteries :(

Looking at replacing my battery now that the Toyota 90,000km Service is happening and they say its on its way to dead....

Looking into the AGM based battery, has anyone got a good suggestion to suit the aurion ?

I know of the Red Top & the Century AGM based battery, but unsure of quality etc ?

Anyone got one at the moment ?

Cheers, Steele.

P.S - 90K Service is costing $930 here in WA....

      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.
