Ok, stop talking about the CES here. we're talkin about the 100 RON here man.

start a new thread or go dig up any of those threads that evolved into CES sucks or CES rocks debates.  :angry:

And if u don't stop. I"ll have to release a Povo/Chrome Racing Exhaust and sell it for 1 percent of the price of the CES ones!

Deep breathes bro!!! :o

Where can i get this 100 oct stuff?

Its ok, CORZZA , I'm not really :angry: . Its just an in joke. (do a search on power FC) .

See, I make performance mods at work when i have time and give them away to fellow forum members to test. For those that make it into full production, they're dirt cheap anyway. Unfortunately my CES prototype (read: copy) has been so wildly successful (why just the other day I flew past a R34 and it was like he wasn't even moving :lol: ) that I fear the brissy boys with CES systems will drive down to melb. to shut my lil operation down.

Thus I have enlisted bigbum with his nunchucks to protect me in vic and runx to patrol the border of nsw and qld...

Anyway, here's a link to my latest freebie. Welcome to the forum.

P.s. 100 RON has given me 330 km on 3/4 of a tank... so far my best fuel economy eve (what can i say, my car's auto and lives on red line. it drinks!)

Back on topic...

I was a bit concerned about using a RON that is too high...Toyota's official response gained from a dealer as well as Customer Service.

"Where the vehicles User Guide states that the 2ZZ requires a 95RON or higher, this is the absolute lowest rating you can use. You can use as high RON as you like as long as it is commercially available"

I guess this means when AV-Gas is available on Pump at the 7-11 servo, then wooshka.... :P

yeah! i used av gas in my corsa! it made a huge diff! any worries of detonation gone!

Doesn't AVGAS contain lead???

On average, Av-Gas containa around 2grams of lead per gallon (about 4 litres)

well i finally fuelled up Optimax Extreme this morning at Shell Fairfield (NSW). i put 56.19L in and before this last 3 tanks were Optimax at Shell Wetherill Park. it cost 13 cents more and Unleaded and just 3 cents over Optimax. well initial thought of this fuel is not too much special. hit lift a few times after more than 30min drive and doesn't feel too much different from Optimax. dont feel my money well spent on it but let see what happen during the week.

have been using ethanol blended fuel for a good 3-4 month period and will not turn back the car runs so smoothly and performance has increased torque, idelling noise (decresed) and generall smoothness of the car has worked wonders, occasionally i run a upper cylinder head cleaner which further improves flow of power...

10 our of 10 for ethanol.... - drink it up

Wait until you have used the a tank or so then when the air is cool, and your sitting about 1/4 full..... mmmm... you'll feel the difference :P

Too right Greggles... I have found that the silly ticking noise that some of hear from our idling engines has decreased also...

where do u get this mix from?

Read from the start of the thread....

Hi all, I'm new here...

I've just been reading all this info on the 100RON. As of it, I haven't tried it out yet. But my question is..how did some of you guys get over 550km/tank....

And i've also been wondering..how many km will a corolla go after the fuel indicator light has gone on

how many km it will go will depend on each car of course. but the fuel light will come on every car when there is approx 15L left in the tank.

the record i've ever heard was 650-700 in a tank. poor sod never revved it past 3000rpm just so he could win a bet or something with the wife.

      ASV50 Camry Head Unit Options

      I have a 2014 Atara SL with the JBL Navigation head unit, it's getting a bit long in the tooth and I'd like to add Android Auto so I'm curious about what other owners have done. I don't want to lose the reverse camera and the dynamic guidelines, there are also some other car functions as part of it that would be good to keep. I have seen plug in modules that wire in that add the functionality to the existing unit so it's possible to keep it and switch between stock and android but I haven't seen a specific one for this model JBL unit. Has anyone had success with a later model Toyota unit bolting in?

      2007 Corolla Sedan rear seatbelt question

      there are online catalogues available that you can type your vin number in and it will show your car, then you can find the correct part number. it is the only way to go when looking for uniquie or uncommon parts. https://partsouq.com/en/catalog/genuine/vehicle?c=Toyota&ssd=%24*KwEWIjMeQU9MbFFuQ2JFQ05aen1jEh0QEQMFBkBlWQFNUQAaXyUmagcOAU1WABpfMidwEBZ5YWYREEpDXxQTEhYGCQBDHlFVBhQXGxcREgJRUQJHBxgBfn9nEU9APQliamV1Y2wCUVEJTUEAGRxYAAAAAL-x3O4%24&vid=0&q=AHT54ZEC307000605 https://www.amayama.com/en/catalogs/toyota/corolla-runx/1-hatchback-right-e120-2001-3066/body-and-interior-3/mudguard-spoiler-298

      1zz-fe engine rebuild

      Hello all, Working on my 2002 corolla. It needs a engine rebuild due to burning oil out the back. It has over 400,000 km on it and I havent looked after it. Everything is still original on the motor. The only thing that I have replaced, was the brushes on the alternator. They were completely worn out. I am pulling the motor/gearbox out of the car. Wont know the condition of the block or head until I strip it down. I know the design of the piston where changed in the 2003+ models for more oil holes, which stopped the buring of oil. 1. Was there any other changes made ? 2. Does anyone know of where I can get a engine rebuild kit for 1zz-fe motor in australia ? 3. I have only found one place that I can get a new short motor built but that is in the USA and they do ship to australia but was hoping to find something in australia Thanks for help. Dragon

      2007 Corolla Sedan rear seatbelt question

      Hi everyone, new member here. I've got a small problem which I'm hoping you can help me sort out. I've read the "read me first" thread and done a forum search so apologies if this ends up being a repost. Ok, so I've just has a bloody mouse chew through the rear seat and half (but only half) of every rear seatbelt. Which is nice. So I need to replace them. The problem I appear to have is that none of the local breakers have any suitable vehicles that I can pull them from and the ones I ordered and was sent from the bay of fleas has the wrong brackets on, despite being allegedly for that vehicle. Further searches come up with every seller showing the wrong bracket, so either I've got a special car which is different just because, or (more likely) they don't know their ****s from their elbows what they're selling. I'm after some aftermarket ones as they never get used and just need to be there to get through rego so don't really want to spend a heap of cash I don't have on genuine parts if I can avoid it. I've replaced the centre one (a mate just randomly had it in a box in his shed, which was handy) but still need the left and right. I've attached the bracket type I pulled from the car and need. Is this a standard generic Toyota seatbelt or specific to the 2007 Corolla sedan? Does is need to be specifically for the rear left and right or do front ones fit? Does anyone know where I can source an aftermarket pair? I will really, really appreciate any help offered with this, I know my way around a box of tools but very little about mechanikicing (which is part of the reason why I bought this car - something simple to learn on as repairs/replacements become due) and this is a simple fix which is turning into a drawn out headache. Thanks - Matt

      Hi from Wagga

      Hi folks, I'm in Wagga, have what I thought was a nice, cheap and reliable 2007 Corolla, and am joining in the hope of picking the collective brain to troubleshoot and avoid tossing my computer and the relevant car parts out of the nearest window. I'll play nice and restrict the swearing to off line areas :D See you on the threads! Cheers Matt

      Amplifier 88650-60D60 no longer made

      Hi all, Wondering if anyone has had this issue. I recently purchased a 2007 200 series landcruiser, and the amplifier for the air con unit stopped working. Part number 88650-60D60. (Looks like a circuit board) All controls for the air con now do not work, very frustrating in winter when you dont have any way to unfog your windscreen. Toyota have informed me that they no longer produce this part, and there is nothing superseeded to fit in it's place. My question is has anyone had this problem? If so what did you do to fix it? I have got onto an auto sparky who has had a go at fixing the circuit board but its unserviceable. Any feedback would be much appreciated.
