Hey guys, I spoke to the guy who got my HID KIT from and he said he can do TOCAU people a group buy,

its $250 shipped to anyone in aust for H7 size you can choose either 6000k ( white ), 8000k ( tinge of blue ), 10000k ( blue ) or 12000k ( purple )

i however need 10 people to get it at this price.

im using the 6000k ones myself and its worth the money :)

theres also a 1 year ballast & bulb replacement warranty.

thanks!

1) Corolla install is a piece of cake, pull out old bulb, put in new.

2) brand is probably some made in china brand (having said that i sue a no frills too and they're fine). What do you expect for $250?

3) Corolla's have a serparate high and low beam bulb. (DO NOT USE hid's for high beam, they take too long to warm up the the needed intensity, it kinda deates the purpose)

3.5) Once gain, for $250 what do u expect? Combined low/hibeam kits are much pricier.

4) If ur're going to pay for HIDs don't use anything lower than 6000 K which is the optimal daylight driving temp. Lower then that you can acheive with phillips bulbs so why bother? higher then 6000 and u start getting less brightness and more blueness.

hey everyone thanks for the postive feedback, i'm currently using the 6000k bulbs on my car at the moment, the corollas have a built in deflector thing so its not glaring, i'll take pics tonite so you can see the difference, installation is veryyyyy easy, like 10 minutes?

6000k is the way to go in terms of legality, of course if u use 8000k/10000k it takes one anal cop to defect you, hence my choice, the color is very white and you wont be disappointed, yes its made in china but for $250 you cant really ask for more, but it uses the same ballast and bulbs as 'AURA' the HID brand, its not philips or hella but you cant really tell a difference, the price is the same for h1, h7, h3? but h4 is more expensive. so it will not only fit corollas but other cars as well.

ill post pics up later tonite,

thanks!

sorry forgot to add, its not advsiable to use HIDs as high beams, as kevin said takes too long to 'energise' but you can use them in fog lights too :)

euro cars use 4800K i think or is it 4300K

something like that

I got a 6000K HID kit and its super clear and bright.

BTW - I have two mates interested in buying HID kits but they both have SW20 MR2's - what bulb size they need?

hey sorry everyone im in melbourne at the moment ill be back in perth from the 2nd of may and ill post pics etc, everything u fellow members wanna see, im using 6000k at the moment, those are probably the ones to go because its pure white with only SLIGHT blue tinge!

10000k is like quite blue/purple looks awesome but might get defected, i can get all sizes @ $250 shipped except H4 its more expensive,

so if we can get 10 sets together he will do for $250 shipped, but if its less than 10 ill see wat he can do for us!

sorry for the absence!

      GR Corolla GTS Issues

      Anyone else with a GR Corolla having issues like these? Just had mine for 2 weeks from Somerton Park - Jarvis Toyota and having heaps of issues with the car unfortunately. Its booked in to be checked out tomorrow, but they were meant to test the car prior to delivery of the vehicle. The AWD issues seem to be common to the corolla when i do a quick google search? Issues with Nov 2022 GR Corolla GTS IMT not functioning after 30 minutes. Light is on but wont match revs on down shift. This is reproducible happens every single time imt is turned on. Some noise and thud/clunking can feel it occasionally when turning right. Changing gears the drivetrain makes a thud can feel a clunking sound. AWD system issues? Clutch to the floor and gears are crunching going into 2nd and 3rd was after driving for roughly 90 minutes first long drive Thursday. Has happened again since then. Pressing accelerator revs go up but no acceleration then feels spongy and not responsive? Even when presing accelerator harder no acceleration. Seems to occur when car is hot. Was told by sales android auto wireless will work. It will not work with my Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra - fails to pair and start endlessly fails in a loop. Software latest version on my phone and have updated car via wifi with the October 24 updates. Could that have caused other issues the toyota update? Music stops playing when going over bumps or speed bumps - this is both annoying and dangerous to press start again when driving and not stationary, happens multiples times each day on commute to/from work… Adaptive cruise control brakes hard sometimes or basically comes to a crawl when there is a car next to you or a parked car or object even though you are 1m+ away from them with current trajectory of vehicle so no possible collision with the cars/objects. I don't like going from 60 to 30 for no real reason, this happens too often seems way over tuned for avoidance. Never experienced anything like this with Adaptive cruise control in my 2018 XT Forester. So far it seems like this car is a Lemon lol

      New Vehicle Key Remotes

      I've had 2 services and still no 2nd key. Service has no idea and says talk to sales. You'd think they were separate entities. Its nows 14 mths and still nothing. On delivery they gave 12mths roadside assist. That's ok except i had 9ths left on my old car that got trasfered and couldn't be pro rated. They didn't extend roadside asist when there was still no sign of key. If I could get onto Toyota I would but like delivery times they push you onto the dealers.... hopeless!!!

      Help with Head unit Upgrade ?

      Hello there, I have just purchased my first car, a used 2013 Corolla ZR Levin, wonderful machine !!!!!!! But the entertainment unit is a bit dated (see photos), i was interested in upgrading to something with Android auto (probably DIY). But i have no clue how to go about finding the perfect system that'll fit in the dash. Also, if there could be a USB-C connection that could be cleanly mounted into the blank spot next to the heated seat controls to run the unit directly from phone, is that at all possible? Can someone please provide some ideas as to how i might get this done, or if it is even possible............... Thanks fellas

      2019 Kluger 2WD Transmission whine

      update Peter Kittle diagnosed it as a Transaxle noise and they submitted an out of warranty claim. Toyota Aust honored the claim and replaced the transmission(transaxle assembly). My diagnostic fee was also refunded. Thankyou Liam at Peter Kittle for listening and responding to the issue.

      Part Wanted for 80, 100, 105 Series Landcruiser Spring Cap

      Hi, I am trying to obtain the part pictured, it is called a Spring Cap and it is spot welded to the chassis, called either a Spring Cap or Rear Spring Bumper Unit, the bump stop attaches to it and you can see it neatly inside the rear spring, this can be left or right it has no orientation, I want to buy either new or used. I have tried on some other forums and also many, many wreckers, it is hard to get at so wreckers don't really want to get involved, I was offered one in an 80 series and I could take it out myself for $20.00, Bargain, but they would not allow me to put the wreck on its side to access it and after surveying the job decided I could not do it in the position it was in, is there anyone who wither has one, knows where I can get one or has useful information to help in me finding one, I am happy to pay postage or even drive a bit of distance to remove one from a chassis I can get at? any help appreciated. I am in North Lakes Qld, 35k North of Brisbane. Graeme power

      2016 Aurion Sportivo missing electric blind button

      Hello everyone, Ive just bought a 2016 Aurion Sportivo and was wondering about the electric blind/sunshade button. The car seems to have the hardware for the blind itself (I think but I could be totally wrong) but the button is just missing, with a hole in its place. Does anyone know if it would be as simple as buying a replacement button? I’m not sure what the cabling for the button looks like so I can’t guarantee that the cables are there, though I would assume they are since it seems the actual blind hardware is there? Also, does anyone know what I should do with the other missing button (lane departure switch) hole. Any help would be appreciated
