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

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?)

      Hi everyone, new member to the group and owner driver of a nifty little Toyota Sprinter Trueno XZ, now this was my cousins car, I bought it off him and after various drives, I have come to the decision that this needs alot of love. Now I am wondering if its worth putting my time and money into doing this certain make n model up or should I just buy a different car to do up? I am not very car-inclined so I really don't know a lot. Any opinions would be very helpful Thankful!

      OK. Does any of Toyota's advertising material mention Android Auto? If so then kick up a stink, with Toyota management, about misrepresentation and false advertising, reminding them of the hefty fines. Herb

      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.

      Android auto

      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.
