Hey Guys,

I know heaps of ppl post these to get advice but i havent seen anyone post this exact one before.

Just saw this CAi on ebay. Was wondering what the issue is with it? Im thinkin maybe its the ****ty Pod filter and if so could you just buy a TRD or K&n one and use that instead?? Would this even fit a 1zz-fe?

thanks in advance

This CAI looks to be a clone of the AEM intake, although it is 2 piece...Looks like it has the right curvature to fit a 1zz (pre-facelift i can only be sure of)...

The only issues you could really have would be that it doesnt fit together or the seals dont cut it, in which case you can simply get a K&N/TRD Pod (assuming the supplied one doesnt fit) and a hacksaw..."modify" the piece that fits onto the throttle body and turn it into a short ram intake, easy :D

For probably around $200 it looks like a good deal, however if you want something rock solid, i would be shelling out of a bit more cash for something that is proven to work.

I quickly asked a guy at autojoy and he said they do a cai for $180.

I thought it was an odd price but i didnt ask him too many questions incase i ended up buying it :P

This may sound stupid

But has anyone asked an exhaust place to make the piping for a cai??

I guess this is aimed at the people that are cost orientated

Hey guys,

I just spoke to the guy at enzo racing in the U.S who runs this auction on Ebay.

He said our 1zz-fe's shoudl be the same as there Matrix XR's therefor these should fit fine.

He said he would ship 5 of the ENZ CAI's to Sydney for a totoal of $250 US. Should pretty cheap and he said the filter provided is fairy good but not up to the standard of the TRD or K&N ones.

What do you guys think?? It ends up being $64 AUD each shipped to sydney.

I got a stock standard 02 model 1zz sedan. WIll this cai kit fit? Do you need any modoifications to the car

?

Juding from what the U.S guys say. The Maxtrix XR parts will fit our STD rollas. I knwo for a fact that they both have the same engines "1zz-fe". I mean for $300 i woudl start to think twice but for 64$ I wouldnt complain if we had to modify it a bit to work.

SO to answer your question. Yes it should fit all 1zz-fe rollas from 02 onwards.

      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.

      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.
