Im getting my Shift Performance CAI this saturday and just wondering would it make a big differenece to me changing to a smaller K&N pod. This is the only way for it to fit on the facelift with the fog lights remaining, from what I was told by shift performance. Just worried the smaller pod will not be adequate.????????? Or is the difference so minimal it doesnt matter?

How much would this "Shift" CAI setup cost, in comparison to the TRD CAI?

i've got the shift CAI installed with a hurricane pod, and its slightly smaller than the TRD one.

You can get an even smaller one, which is only like 6-7cm tall, and you wouldnt have any troubles or loss of power from installing that over the full sized one...

Support your local retailers, get shift!!

The smaller pod filter will not cause a restriction unless of course the adaptor itself becomes the restriction.

Hey dude thanks for the interest. Well offers come in tonight at 9pm (on the Universities Admission Center website) so I'm not totally sure yet but the entry to my course was a UAI of 89.15 last year and I got 96.30 so I'm pretty sure I've got in (but I'll confirm tonight).

Cheers,

Jared :)

EDIT: Sorry about straying off topic ppl :blush:

Included in the $350 is the convenience of not having to wait for it to be posted and having it fitted by the people who designed it. Also you're supporting a local as someone said :)

if you go in to the shop and mention a few names and the club then you should be able to get the cai and the pod filter for that price ...

again .. there are many syd members happy to help install .. and everyone I know who has a Shift CAI has been very happy with it .. including myself ..

also to add .. make sure you speak to Sal ..

I know this has been argued before but is this legal in NSW??? (is the exposed pod filter deemed to be "outside the engine bay" when it is mounted near the fog light? n can u get away with it if it is a dry filter instead of an oiled one?)

Dont know where the line is ... really not black or white ..

ive had a cop look under my bonnet and he didnt care ... but im sure others would kick a stink up about it ..

and we arent at the point where we have to get the car checked at rego time yet ..

in regards to the oiled or non oiled .. are you asking that for legal reasons too ?? or just what we are using ?

The oiled or not question was also about the legality cos apparently it is legal in Victoria if it is a dry filter (non oiled)

hmmm, interesting...

I wonder how much they will budge on 3 quarts of Redline Super Lightweight, Motul RBF-600 brake fluid and an Apexi Filter?

May be worth asking if they would consider sponsorship like CES too ;)

Ill ask them about that as well on saturday. Be good if they are able to bring CES products here. Im thinking of buying a muffler but cant decide on remus or CES. I lke how the remus is just a simple bolt on, dont like to modify too much. Plus the stivo stock system seems adequate for the job. But $800ish dollars is still alot...

Don't need to get them to install it. Its really simple, I can do it in about 15mins flat.

I was happy with it, until I sold it.....and then I ended up getting the sportivo, lol.

      OK. Does any of Toyota's advertising material mention Android Auto? If so then kick up a stink, with Toyota management, about misrepresentation and false advertising, reminding them of the hefty fines. Herb

      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.

      Android auto

      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.
