just be mindful the weight of various things will affect the way it sits. not just out the same measurements for all the corners and expect it to be sitting even. my coils were wonky and i had to adjust separate one at one time. frustration mounted when i moved one and the other ride height changed on the other corners. i finally got it the way i wanted and that's sitting a bit lower on the rear. so when i do take seats out for track sessions the car sits evenly.

Lol frustrating is the word! Mine sits slightly higher at the back and also slightly higher by a few mm's on the passenger’s side.

He's referring to his own post. I modified it because it wasn't specific to the original post.

yeah adam this problem drive me crazy sometime but i have my guard roller front and rear it did not fix my problem wasted money for nothing.... im on 245-35-20 rim is 45mm off sets at my level of height the tyre hit the pastic holder everytime my 2 small sister seat at the back.. some time the front if you pull off the soft plastic from the guard you will see a bolts and a plastic thingy holds the body kits that plastic is way too long everytime the tyre bounce it touch the plastic holder i hope dont break it soon.. 235 tyres i think is a good idea to avoid hitting it..

Hey guys,

Could i get some feed back on ride quality for these BC Coilovers for our Aurions?

I had BC's on my AE86 and it was suprisingly soft but firm. (nice)

D2's on my R33 were hard and handled like it was on rails.

So, Feed back please??? LOL

Like, is it really going to upset the experiance if driving the car?

Ps: i hope it feels nice like the AE86

Cheers Guys

BUT feel so good on the track lol once i turn up to lvl30 dampering driving on a nice new road omg ! i feel like driving something else not aurion mwhahahah

Well i finaly done it.

Im running 19x9 buddy club wheels with a mild +38 off set and dropped the car down using BC Gold coilovers on my Presara LOL.

The rear feels a little to bouncy and the front feel nicer. I dont know what setting the coilovers are set too yet but ill play around with it tomorrow...

Next plan is to raise it just a tad more and wheel spacers to flush the wheels to the guards. I dont have to have Hellaflush but almost would be nice...

Thanks for everyones help :)

On my first installation the mud guards almost touched the ground. Maybe 2cm off the ground but im not sure how much more I could turn it down. But was very low.

I'll try how ya some photos of the Aurion soon.

(how do i attach photo here?)

      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.
