howdy all...

little story for u all, from when was driving to work this morning, at about 4:30am.

going my normal way to work, there's a roundabout which i go straight through and then it curves up into a bridge about 50m down the road. going there this morning, come around the roundabout, its pitch black as there are no streetlights on, and onto the bridge, where i find some stupid little kids (im assuming cos its holidays) have left logs and big tree trunks and branches covering the entire road, probably about 30 or 40cm high. hit the brakes and swerved to the left hoping to avoid but the kids streched it all the way to the edge of the bridge, so i had nowhere to go but over the top of these branches. \

pulled over, did a quick check of my car cos i couldnt see much, then went and started pulling all the **** off the road (they were big branches too, i struggled to pull a couple off the road by myself!) and as i was cleaning the road, it was so dark i watched 3 more cars hit the same branches and almost me cos they couldnt see anything either. anyway rang the police told them to come down and clear the road and the continued to work, where i put the car up on the hoist (couple of hours later) and inspected the damage. looks like i need a new rim which ****s me, and i also dented some of the exhaust sheilds underneath.

so just letting u all know (esp canberrans) to keep an eye out for little ****s doing stuff in the holidays, and just warning u all the be careful! BTW, i wasnt even pushing it, cos i was still in the warming up stage of driving to work before i usually give it a bit in the cool air :P

but yeah, here's the pics and feel free to donate to the "buy michael a new wheel" foundation :P

sucks about your rim man! shame to see another white wheel get damaged :(

i almost hit a kid a few months ago.. i was driving down old northern road, about 2am, and the street lights were out... and these probably drunk kids who looked about 14 were all over the footpath... and when i got close, theres this kid holding his beer up in the middle of my lane... i just went straight round him, but if i hadnt been looking, and he hadn't moved in time (i was doing about 80), i would have flattened the little *****...

The parents of these kids should be doing their job and keeping their kids at hom....sigh.........its just gonna be an endless cycle.. when these kids grows up, their kids will be just like them...and we'll end up with more of these brats running around.......

don't u wish someone would just take them off the street and away from their useless parent and give them a decent home somewhere where they can grow up and be of some help to society...

      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.

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      "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.
