But i don't believe GL4 = synchro protection and GL5 isn't.  What about GL6 oils?  If someone can explain "API" that should explain it bcuz its usually API GL4 or GL5.

some GL-5 rated oils contain sulfer which eats away at all the brass in the trans. GL-5 is made for rear end gears, not the tranny

Not sure if any of you guys have upgraded to the speed-source brass shift bushings, or used the energy suspension motor mount inserts... but the combination of the two has solved any and all of my shifting issues.

Although if I don't wait a little bit after I depress the clutch, I'll still grind reverse.

Would you provide a link as to where we can purchase these parts? Thanks in advance ;)

I also forgot about the extended master cylinder push rod you guys use over there. Did that really help?

And the brass bushing looks good Northy, will be interested if we can get them here. What abt the motor mounts?

group buy and group install!? :P and interesting abt the engine mounts, more engine movement = more movement through transmission = crap shift quality? But i guess that applies more to older cars or Celicas that have done more than 100,000kms and 5 years or older so the mounts can be a little loose.

A shifting question here: Has anyone tried shifting 1-2 without letting the gas pedal out fully, like just let the gas pedal 3/4 - 1/2 way out, shift into 2nd, clutch pedal out and full gas again? i am trying that out at the moment bcuz the problem when trying to shift easier and slower is letting the gas pedal out fully=revs drop right down (especially with lighter flywheel), so i was hoping by keeping the gas pedal going, revs will stay higher (above 6000rpm) before clutch enagement so i get more torque so easier to land LIFT. Confusing enough? :blink:

One step ahead of you Zee. Already organising the possibility of getting some made here in Brisbane ;) If I get enough interest there could be the possibility of doing a larger quantity for a good price. :D

that would be burning up your clutch a lot.  I'll bet the flywheel is blue ;)

Tried that out, doesn't work for me :( so back to normal shifting and you are right abt burning up the clutch and flywheel.. but worth a try anyway i thought. I think my Stivo just needs more mid range torque, now where's Craig :P

And Brendon, i knew you Brissy boys would be right on it :D

If i were you.. I wouldnt get energy suspension engine mounts unless absolutely necessary.. The added vibrations is annoying.. Things start to rattle. It doesn't make much of an improvement. I little bit easier to land lift 1st-2nd.. I little bit better tractions. But not worth the pain and agony you'll have to live with everyday.

K.. it probably be alright for some people. As long as you don't have a gf nagging at you saying ur car sux dog balls because of the added vibrations and noise.

sorry for the belated reply... i got the regular toyota kit, both bushings are the same size on my 2ZZ.

honestly, the polyurethane engine mount inserts made a bigger difference than the brass shift bushings... but the combination is outstanding.

Just took my car to the 20,000km service this morning. I had also stated the gear change problem, 1st - 2nd above 6,000 rpm.....can't shift, need to wait till it drop to 5,000, as well as crunchy shift 3rd to 2nd.........all that kind of crap :angry: .

Also, the rattles behind the stereo when driving over bumpy road.

It is the second time I bring it in for the gear change issue to the Sydney City Toyota.

The car will be ready at about 4:30pm today.

Wish me luck guys ~~~ :)

      Aftermarket Air Intake

      Hey all, Just recently bought a 2007 TRD Aurion and am trying to find an aftermarket Air Intake, but am coming to the realisation that there is a very limited market for TRD Aurions. So far the only system I've been able to find is a K&N Typhoon Intake (link here: https://www.carmodsaustralia.com.au/KN-Filters-69-8611TS-69-Series-Typhoon-Performance-Air-Intake-System-Camry-35L-07-11?cq_src=google_ads&cq_cmp=18898892770&cq_con=&cq_term=&cq_med=pla&cq_plac=&cq_net=x&cq_plt=gp&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwpZWzBhC0ARIsACvjWRP893VLnAQsxIZJjcW5Go75b_T2N25rSWBVu6IeDziM2v41bpeyOREaAg1fEALw_wcB), however when viewing specifications for the product it states it fits Camry's from 2007-2011. Further digging revealed this product is an import from the USA hence why it's for a Camry - they don't have Aurions there. I am aware that they both share the 2GR-FE engine so I'm assuming the product will be able to be retrofitted to my TRD, provided the throttle body intake is the same diameter across Supercharged 2GR-FE's and N/A 2GR-FE's. Has anyone else in Aus had any luck sourcing/fitting one of these K&N Intakes, or know of another brand that do them specifically for the TRD Aurion's. Pretty confident in just ordering the aforementioned kit but their return policy sucks (can't return and refund if packaging has been opened, etc). Cheers guys! Jason.

      Heater problems

      My Toyota Celica SX blows cold air at the driver’s side when the heater is on, and it is an absolute nuisance. I get that it takes a while for the heater to work properly, but some reason after I have the heater on, it starts blowing out cold air even after a good warm up! I feel like the heater core may need replacing or the air conditioner/heater needs re-gassing.

      Entertainment Unit Upgrade

      Hi everyone. Just after some advice on head unit upgrade. I'm looking to upgrade the functionality of the entertainment system to do a few things - display my dual camera from my caravan, utilise the HEMA OnRoad/OffRoad module, stream to the rear screens, and include wireless apple play. I've narrowed down to the most popular which seems to be Advanced Ice, EC Offroad and Galios - but none seem to do all four functions seamlessly. Not sure if I'm actually looking for a unicorn or not...has anyone had any experience in installing one of these systems and has it done all the functions? Any regrets? Cheers Mark

      KUN26R Hilux Single Cab - Tray to Tub

      Hi everyone, I own a 2011 Toyota Hilux KUN26R. It currently has a tray. I am looking for a single cab tub (image for reference below). I have a couple of questions for everyone: - Were KUN26R's ever released in Australia with a single cab tub as an option? I have looked high and low over all sorts of marketplaces within Australia and honestly cannot seem to find one. I don't believe I have ever seen one on the streets of Aus either. - Does anyone have experience making this conversion? Where can I find a tub? I have found some examples of the style side single cab KUN26R's in the UK, EU, Africa and Thailand but in all instances it has been part of a whole car sale and the sellers have not been willing to part out. Even so, if there is the chance that I can buy this tub in Australia it would be much better as it would save the hassle of organising freight. Thanks everyone in advance. I'm jealous of overseas countries who seem to have gotten this model in abundance.

      1993 Corolla Seca CSI limited

      1993 CSI limited Corolla Seca hatchback 80k kms. We are the second owner and have complete service and maintenance records of the car from new. Previously owned from new by older lady who rarely drove the car in the final years. Very neat and tidy vehicle. Unfortunately another vehicle has reversed into the car and their towball caused some damage to radiator, air con system and fan. The right person could easily fix the vehicle. We are just not in a financial position to do this. We cannot bear to send the car to salvage so posting here in hope that another Toyota enthusiast is interested incontinuing the life of the car. These cars are much loved and we have loved our “Beryl” during her time with us. Please feel free to ask questions. Open to offers above $3k
