been searching on the forums but the opinions vary. GK Technologies are selling the raizen kit for $70 but i hear that it may not be genuine Raizin, so anyone have that kit? and is it any good?

I have the Raizen ones, promises too much but i feel that there are over rated. I recommend proper grounding wires and larger battery.

Hope that helps!!

interesting i was originally going to get the HKS universal kit but its overpriced if you ask me but thanks for the info, anyone else have this kit? The main reason i want it is to smooth out the engine a little at idle.

I've got one of the kits you are talking about (there was a sale on them for $50 about 6 months ago and a fair few of us grabbed one) they aren't bad for the price you pay...

i've got a set of the Pivot Volt Stabiliser as well as grounding cables..personally feel that the v.s helps a little..very insignificant..but grounding the car improves alot more.. :)

They deffinately worked in terms of stabalising :D by which I mean my lights have reduced flicking to the beat of my bass from the subs quite considerably.

reduced but not ELMIINATED? :blink: ...does it STILL flicker/dim? ...my sound system is pretty much stock and sometimes it crackles at the whine of Mariah Carey (don't ask) :lol: <_< maybe i got a frikkin' lemon :( ...*sighz*

RICE FACTOR,,, I've got one in the car at the moment with full audio setup.. if its your audio thats causing the flickering of the lights.. get a cap will sort that out.. plus a nice odyessey battery will also help.. earthing wires are already in the car.. the raizin in my mind now has minimal to no effect on the car...

it might be a placebo effect from they way things sound i have seen on the raizen on a few vic stivos but there idle and lights etc. seem to run the same as mine when i think about it, so might be a waste of my hard earned $70.

Of course not. What do you think? Stabalising is going to solve all your problems? Think again.

am i right in thinking i could just buy some thick ***** power cable (2 or 4ga) from jaycar and some of those thingos with the rings (i cant think of what theyre called now) and just make your own cables? that might be alot cheaper than a full kit... all your doing is placing some fat wire in the same line as the stock ground wire yes?

When I got my runX(same-ish as Stivo), it had one but it wasn't connected, I attached it to the battery, and then something behind the dash whistled, I disconnected it, and the whistle went away...

it's still in there, but only because my lazy a55 can't be bothered undoing a few bolts.

and yes, a few hunks of larger gauge wire would do the same... 4ga would be huge.

Hmm. I have a 600RMS @ 4ohm amp running my sub and a 40RMS x 4 @ 4ohm amp sunning my speakers, and I'm running stock battery with stock ground wires and I dont get any light flicker, even when the stereo is fully cranked. I had the same setup in my old car and i had a lot of light flicker. Maybe you guys should re-think the position of your ground wires for your amps if your getting flicker.

      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.

      "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.
