AZZA the lucky bugga has the CES Cat back system that was on my car. You cant fully understand how good this system was until you dont have it on your car. My car has lost its mid range urge now its amazing how much this backward step has affected the car. The engine is not a smooth as it transitions to lift it feels sluggish all the way thru the rev range. If you have been thinking about a CES cat back but had doubts forget the bloody doubts get over and get one fitted you will love the change it makes to the car.

Yes I thank mowog immensly as I have really enjoyed the extra oomph since I had the catback fitted.

The full standard cat back system from CES is $960 fitted with a $100 upgrade to S/S flanges as opposed to the M/S flanges that are used on the base system.

The 3000 - 6000 rpm range is where most of the extra is notices, and yes, the transition to lift is heaps better.

Thanks again mowog.... :toast:

I don't think it matters what or where you get it from as long as it's a well thought out system appropriate for the car.

If it is, you're going to get gains. ;)

Exactally right... there is stuff all to making one... but Danz is right that Purcell Performance one certainly looks the goods ;)

As stated Bangn has diverted away from the Std Purcell Performance system, PP cater for all their customers concerns, whether they wish to supply a specific rear muffler as Brian did or go with the STD setup which judging by Mark ear-o-meter is not anywhere near as loud as half the systems out there... (but sorry Corey no official test have been done) No video's /sound clips available asyet (but these will be available soon :D ) you well know this is only a hobby... everyone associated with Purcell Performance actually have full time jobs.... All PP endeavours are done with the main intention of providing Quality cost effective products/services to fellow enthusiasts, whether being Exhaust's, CAI's, Gauge Cluster's, Wiring harness's or Short Shifters.

ps. All Purcell Performance exhausts use full stainless flanges nothing less ;)

I guess at the end of the day it comes down to what system you are happy with. At normal price, I would have been more than happy to buy the CES system (should I have been able to pry my balls from my wife's purse long enough) however I was fortunate enough to grab this one at a fantastic price....

I am happy with it and I reckon that is all that matters....

But aren't you and your brother the "brains and workforce" behind PP??? Cause then that makes you advertising your "business" without permission.

Rules are rules Mark as you have so rightly pointed out in the past.....

      Towbars

      I went to my local Toyota Dealer for a nudge bar and tow bar for my 2017 AWD RAV4 and was told by their part's department was told "parts no longer made." Looking at aftermarket (ECB, Haymen Reese and ARB) but hesitant because sellers can't give 100% guarantee that parts will fit GLX facelift model.

      Concerns about Fuel Consumption in Kluger Hybrid

      I have the same issue with my 22 new Hybird Kluger. I also found my (grande) new Kluger has missed 220V power point and camera view on central mirror comparing with same car in US. This clearly are the short cuts to Australia Toyota customers which is unacceptable.

      ASV50 Camry Head Unit Options

      I have a 2014 Atara SL with the JBL Navigation head unit, it's getting a bit long in the tooth and I'd like to add Android Auto so I'm curious about what other owners have done. I don't want to lose the reverse camera and the dynamic guidelines, there are also some other car functions as part of it that would be good to keep. I have seen plug in modules that wire in that add the functionality to the existing unit so it's possible to keep it and switch between stock and android but I haven't seen a specific one for this model JBL unit. Has anyone had success with a later model Toyota unit bolting in?

      1zz-fe engine rebuild

      Hello all, Working on my 2002 corolla. It needs a engine rebuild due to burning oil out the back. It has over 400,000 km on it and I havent looked after it. Everything is still original on the motor. The only thing that I have replaced, was the brushes on the alternator. They were completely worn out. I am pulling the motor/gearbox out of the car. Wont know the condition of the block or head until I strip it down. I know the design of the piston where changed in the 2003+ models for more oil holes, which stopped the buring of oil. 1. Was there any other changes made ? 2. Does anyone know of where I can get a engine rebuild kit for 1zz-fe motor in australia ? 3. I have only found one place that I can get a new short motor built but that is in the USA and they do ship to australia but was hoping to find something in australia Thanks for help. Dragon

      2007 Corolla Sedan rear seatbelt question

      Hi everyone, new member here. I've got a small problem which I'm hoping you can help me sort out. I've read the "read me first" thread and done a forum search so apologies if this ends up being a repost. Ok, so I've just has a bloody mouse chew through the rear seat and half (but only half) of every rear seatbelt. Which is nice. So I need to replace them. The problem I appear to have is that none of the local breakers have any suitable vehicles that I can pull them from and the ones I ordered and was sent from the bay of fleas has the wrong brackets on, despite being allegedly for that vehicle. Further searches come up with every seller showing the wrong bracket, so either I've got a special car which is different just because, or (more likely) they don't know their ****s from their elbows what they're selling. I'm after some aftermarket ones as they never get used and just need to be there to get through rego so don't really want to spend a heap of cash I don't have on genuine parts if I can avoid it. I've replaced the centre one (a mate just randomly had it in a box in his shed, which was handy) but still need the left and right. I've attached the bracket type I pulled from the car and need. Is this a standard generic Toyota seatbelt or specific to the 2007 Corolla sedan? Does is need to be specifically for the rear left and right or do front ones fit? Does anyone know where I can source an aftermarket pair? I will really, really appreciate any help offered with this, I know my way around a box of tools but very little about mechanikicing (which is part of the reason why I bought this car - something simple to learn on as repairs/replacements become due) and this is a simple fix which is turning into a drawn out headache. Thanks - Matt

      Hi from Wagga

      Hi folks, I'm in Wagga, have what I thought was a nice, cheap and reliable 2007 Corolla, and am joining in the hope of picking the collective brain to troubleshoot and avoid tossing my computer and the relevant car parts out of the nearest window. I'll play nice and restrict the swearing to off line areas :D See you on the threads! Cheers Matt
