Hi Mate,

grab it. I bought one from them about 3 weeks ago, and havent had a problem. Ive owned whiteline products on my previous car, and i cant spot the difference, besides the weight of my wallet :)

took me a whole 10mins to install also....not brain surgery. Give it a go

The On the Run Crew have great customer service - i got my voltage stabiliser and cold air intake installed by them B) Johnny and his mate's rides are made - wrx + forester GT ....the summit strut is pretty good for the job as well - much recommended - i know kelvin has a set on his stivo, and he is very impressed with it :clap:

On the Run + Summit FTW! :toast:

when i shopped around - i used the search function on toca and found several threads about whether it was worth it or not - it set me back 120 - but i've seen some on the net shops for arounds 80bux . ... ... i think it's a nice rice accessory - and also does a 'little' bit, as in the slightess of slightess in throttle response - if u have an ICE stuff, then i guess it wouldn't hurt .

but 120 for a voltage stabilser is rip i think $_$ ... i just had too much money at the time

For 1zzfewagon, and others that maybe interested

That's great to hear Roy, i'm sure when u rock up to their shop, u'll knock them over with ur ride - ki doubt that Johnny can resist testing ur ride...he took mine out for a spin after he installed the CAI -- :o ...i wish i bought a note book - ring them up in the next two weeks to check on the progress, as i know that they are fairly busy with the racing side of things B)

whiteline strut brace

i don't see how the summit is cheaper, although i suppose thats including installation, and after yo uadd postage to the whiteline then it might be cheaper to get the summit.

But why don't you install the strut yourself? when i got one for my KE70 i put it on myself, only have to undo three nuts, place the bar in place then re-tighten...easy stuff!

i'm also after a front strut for my car..and as you say its better, can you tell me how?

as in quality/stiffness or whatever, cause i'm not sure what i should be looking for in a front strut? (sorry to hijack the thread)

The Summit is a much better bar than the whiteline mainly due to the fact that it is designed specifically for the car, Unlike the whiteline which is just a universal center bar with threaded ends so it can be adjusted to fit any car, the only thing car specific about the whiteline bars are the strut top mounts, and in my opinion the whiteline are kind of cheap and flimsy looking....

      05 hiace ecu

      Hi all, new member needing some help with an issue that has me stumped, replacing ignition and had a short somehow. Van would not crank or obviously start, found blown fuse and replaced, now car cranks but won’t start, no check engine light when ignition is first turned on and scan tool will not communicate with ecu. All fuses good except fuse 26 on instrument panel fuse box has no power. almost convinced my ecu is cooked but before outlaying for a new one thought someone may either advise another possible cause or confirm ecu likely the issue, appreciate any advise or experience similar.

      1989 Hilux Low Voltage

      Hey all, recently got a 1989 Hilux with the petrol 22r engine. I had plugged a voltage meter into the 12v socket because I suspected an electrical problem as the battery light had been on. It had read 11.9 volts initially but the more I drive the more it deteriorates, currently sitting at 10.9 (after several hours of driving) when the engine is running. This obviously doesn't charge the battery and it can't start by itself. I have since replaced the battery and yesterday I did the alternator with a brand new one. I've checked all the grounds that I can see but it's still sitting at 10.9 volts and deteriorates over time. I was thinking the voltage regulator is the next best bet? I looked at it visually and it seems fine. Anyone got any other ideas? Note: I had a very long drive the other week and on one occasion the voltage spiked back up to 15+ volts for a short while before going back down to about 11.4 And yeah I'm trying not to drive it too much because I know it's probably damaging the battery being on such low voltage. Any help would be awesome thanks!

      FUEL WARNING MESSAGE

      Photo below showing remotely mounted relay for sup pump and switch to connect relay coil to earth when required. The earth connection for the switch was found using a test light in an empty relay socket just near where the relay is now mounted. You can trace the solid black wire. Btw, I soldered all the crimp connectors. I don't have a lot of faith in crimp connectors. Geoff

      No, I didn't see a fuel filter, but the inside of the tank was spotless. The pump wasn't running - blocked filter or not. Geoff

      Geoff, did you check the fuel filter that protects the transfer pump from blockages? Tony

      Wanting to build my car.

      I’ve brought my first car a while ago it’s a 2008 Toyota Aurion sportivo zr6 it has 215xxx kms I’ve been wanting to modify it as it is tidy but I’m unsure if I should since the car is this old and I have had to replace the oil cooler lines a month ago (my car dumped its oil on me) just unsure if they go good after a certain age. what I do want to do to it is. wheels lowering springs or coil overs stiffer sway bar exhaust tint all round after market head lights and tail lights (if any of you know decent ones could you shear a link as I’ve only been able to find some on eBay) if there is anything else that would make it look good like body kits if there are any would be nice to know. Thanks in advance IMG_0918.cr2

      2004 hzj79 surging/jolting

      Gday Ive got a problem with my 2004 hzj79 with 235,000kms with no turbo, ive takin it to a few places all have different answers. At 1400rpm just on light throttle it seems to be surging/jolting as if your on and off the accelerator. Ive recently had the head gasket, head, injectors, fuel filters and timming belt all done and is still happening after the works been done. Has anyone else had the same problem before or be able to point me in right direction? Cheers.
