funny you should say that

China probably develope 70% of the things you use every day... guess what.. the japs do too. You buy something from japan such as a camera you can guarentee alot of it was moulded in china... the japanese just add their technology to it.

China just have to establish themselves in the car market and learn from their mistakes. But they will be big in the future i can tell you.

In fact the americans dont build such safe cars either.

but with japenese products there would be a much higher quality control cos those big brands (like sony) dont want their names spoiled by some crappy chinese factory...

hahahha!!! Northy... Be nice!!!

Well the americans are pretty crap too, i did a case study on Ford and they release a car called the Pinza or something. The car was pratically a scam for quick cash, nice dressed car with no safety qualitys what so ever. Ford also tried to reduce the cost of the production of the car and actually made the fuel tank thinner. Funny things was in their budget they actually put a cost for customer deathsand lives, and how much they would get sued for. From memory alot of people died driving the pinza minor accidents would cause the fuel tank to explode people got roasted in their cars.

I guess its all about quality control and learning from past mistakes, but im sure China will get there oneday with beter quality.

Cheers all :D :P

you should do some research.. the "crappy chinese" factory you mention are thats where most of the componants in sony gear is made... its only the elecronics (which some of the electronic componants are made in China) are then put togethr by japanase factories.

If i said to you go and have a look at where all the products are made in your home you would see that you have purchased so called "crappy chinese" made products. I bet even the shirt on your back is made in china.

Also isnt china now the second most powerful economy in the world? (or getting there very quickly) America being the first.. i can bet you China will soon be the most powerfull country in the world.. afterall they are buying out alot of the large banks in the USA.

So, i reckon before slating chinese made products (not saying all is good as there is some crap floating around) I would research actually how big the chinese industry is.. you will be highly suprised.

Japan is too small to have such a enourmous industry making plastics and electronics products... its all imported in!!

saw a Chinese program saying that they did the safty test on the same car and the result is satisfactory. they said that someone just wanted to hit Chinese automotive industry's reputation and stop them entering into european market... don't know if we should believe, but I won't buy any china made cars, at least in 8 or 10 years time. no matter how cheap they are.

Steve I see the point you are raising re: the economy etc and while there is merit in it, the liklihood of you doing something potentialy fatal with a Sony TV as opposed to in a vehicle is relatively slim. No matter how good they make TV's and white good componants I don't see the direct reference to the context of poor safety standards on vehicles.

      Android auto

      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.

      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.
