Hmmm, 5.0L TRD V8 from the Daytona 24hr....looks like Toyota could very easily enter the V8 Supercars with this.

Now they just need to hurry up and do it. Whilst it is great having Nissan and Merc/Erebus in the main series, they aren't at the pointy end yet and the Holdern/Ford ratio is still too far in the red camp :P

They run about 3 sec's slower than the premier class. Prolly puts them bout on par with the nissans and mercs right now.

+ they looks and sound amazing, such a better shape on the track compared to the holdens and fords.

I'm a fan of the NZ series now will be watching close.

Yeh I was just sitting watching the race and had the same reaction. They looked awesome on track!! I really hope that Toyota get their act together and get in the Aussie supercars, now that car of the future is here and anyone can enter.

Hi guys, just another vision of race cars in the opossite side of the world.

In Argentina we have TC2000 which is the most popular category in the country. Since 2012 changed to Super TC2000 due to upgraded the engines to 2.7L V8 producing now 430cv.

This is the presentation of the TTA (Toyota Team Argentina) You will hear the difference between 2011 and 2012 with the new V8 engines. Enjoy.

passion thats all you need, i think a v8 camry or Aurion would be great in the series , but what the bet Toyota wont sponsor a team for bull**** reasons, you'd have to do it on your own bat, like the Erubus team did, mercedes didn't want a bar of it

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Generally, yes. In the 60s, and earlier, there were cars with positive grounds, so I'm always a bit hesitant to say the negative wire. It is always the one that bolts to the body. Herb

      2011 Land Cruiser 1VD-FTV Engine Won't Start After Overhaul

      Hi everyone, I have a 2011 Land Cruiser VDJ200 with a 1VD-FTV engine. I recently had the engine fully overhauled due to a blown head gasket. However, after the overhaul, the engine is not starting. It only cranks but doesn't fire. I've checked the following DTC codes: Internal memory EEPROM error Low rail pressure The actual rail pressure data shows: 240 bar during cranking 61 bar when ignition is off Based on these findings, I suspect the following potential causes: =Defective Diesel High-Pressure Pump =Leaking Piezoelectric Injectors =Diesel Fuel Bypassing to the DPF Circuit =Faulty Injector Drivers I'm hoping for some expert advice to help diagnose and resolve this problem I'm seeking expert advice on how to troubleshoot and resolve this issue. Any suggestions or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Disconnecting batteries, ALWAYS disconnect the ground wire first. Doing this will also disconnect power, in general. Herb

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Hey guys, I’m wanting to disconnect my current winch, lightbar and UHF as I have new plans. I’ve installed a winch previously on another car so I get it’s a case of following the cables and disconnecting from the battery, etc but but safety wise, should I start by disconnecting the battery so the cables aren’t live orrrr? And if so how do it go this haha?

      Snapping wheel and axle studs

      Put a set of standard wheels on it and your problem will disappear. It is critical that the hole in the wheel centre is a snug fit on the axle boss (without wheel nuts fitted). If your wheels are sloppy on the axle boss this allows excess force on your wheel studs and they will break, as yours are doing. If you are unsure of what to do, go to a reputable tyre shop and get assistance.

      2zz idle / roughness when accelerating past 3k

      Hey everyone was hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction with this issue I've been facing for a while now. My Celica's idle will drop down to almost 200rpm when stationery after hitting operating temperature. Pretty much feels like it's about to stall out but never actually does. When taking off from a set of lights it almost feels like it hesitates or is down on power and then all of a sudden it lurches forward and gets a boost in power again. Then again around 1,500-3,000rpm it feels down on power and in what I can only describe in the engine feeling scratchy. Past 3,000 rpm it gets a little boost in power again but still definitely feels down on power compared to what it used to be and still has that roughness. Note lift is also not working at the moment but I have changed the lift bolts, planning on cleaning the VVT and VVTL-i OCV's New engine mounts have been installed I changed the MAF sensor about 4 years ago albeit not OEM. After doing some research my main ideas now would be a New MAF this time OEM, TPS, IACV or Coil Packs (Changed plugs 50,000km ago) Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!! :)

      Missing compliance plate post accident repair - 5+ years ago

      Thanks, looks like manufacturer can only replace. I've reached out to my Toyota dealer (where I purchased) directly.
