Hi, i am new to this site and hoping someone could help me.

I Have a 3500S and the other day i wasnt thinking right and while reversing hit a bollard on the driver door and mirror..

The dent doesnt seem too bad, with a few scratches but the door doesnt close properly. I have to force it shut as it sits low and rides up as i close it. While i drive i can hear air coming in.

Im wondering if anyone knows a good place in Brisbane for TRD Aurion repairs or parts? Do u think i will need a whole new door shell (The door card/interior is fine) The hinges seem fine but something is making it not fit properly..

Also the mirror came off but doesnt seem anything cracked just cant get it back on the mount.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.. i could post some pics too..

Thanks,

Tim

Check eBay for cheap parts. You don't need trd specific parts. Any old aurion door and mirror will fit

So the TRD doors are not different to non TRD?? Just the badge "3500S" which are cheap..

Thanks chris, i got quoted $1,360.00 Which i would not pay.. Are the inner door cards easy to swap and do the electrics connect strait up???

Not too sure about the electrics sorry. Yeah the badge will need to be swapped but shouldn't be too bad. Make sure you get pre facelift doors though. The facelift doors are about different.

Basically buy any door before 2009. The difference is basically that bit of door trimming below your 3500s. The facelift doors won't have that. Some 09 doors will be fine but just be careful.

As I understand, the electrics are a direct match.

A tip given to me by my Toyota mechanic mate is to get the window switch panel from a Presara, because that apparently has the auto window functionality on all four windows.

Be glad you didn't damage the side skirting, I asked him about the price on a new one (Believe a tyre place managed to take a big chunk out of the front part facing the front wheels on one of mine), $500, ouch.

Thanks guys.. you have both been a great help.. Wow $500 is steep!!

So just confirm any aurion door that is 2007 will fit and is the same shape as the TRD aurion door??

yes, pre-facelift models where the TRD falls into were built from the end of '06 to the start of September '09. Therefore a door from an '07 model will definitely fit.

      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.
