  1. Luke, I am glad that you are happy with the K&N, as I said - best money ever spent. :D For the exhaust note, did you take off the mid resonator? The factory one was designed to kill most of the noise. Not sure if they are the same but mine was huge, even w/o the rear mufflers my car was not loud at all before taking it off.
  2. All listed items are sold thanks to all your attention. I just realised that I forgot to list a pair of HID in the first post. it is a H11 55W 8000K nearly new HID conversion kit with instructions. It's white and very bright. Easy to install Give me $60 and it's yours.
  3. Luke, the SRI was for n/a Aurion originally. I had to do minor mods because of the supercharger. (eg, diff screw hole positions on the floor plate of the heat shield, bracket, etc) I am pretty sure it will fit the N/A Aurion. Van, The mufflers will fit V6 Camry.
  4. Mate I just added a new post in the buy and sell section to sell some parts from my previous Aurion including the typhoon kit you are looking for. Check it out if you are still looking.
  5. Just sold my TRD Aurion recently in exchange of a family wagon. Took off all the mods and put the originals back before selling it. Now I have the following bits for sell if anyone interested. You can watch the vidoes here http://www.youtube.c...2?feature=watch to see/hear them. The parts are also suitable for none Supercharged Aurions. They are all in close to new condition. 1 x K&N Typhoon short ram induction kit. (Modified to fit with the supercharger, refer to video Pt3&4) $200 (bought for $350) - Sold 1 x K&N panel air filter $50 (bought for $125, barely used) - Sold 2 x Magnaflow stainless steel rear muffler. (refer to video clip Pt2) plug in and play with any Aurions. $350 (bought for $700, decent quality) - Sold Bonus: TRD, Sportivo badges/stickers (small) Just added: H11 55W 8000K nearly new HID conversion kit with instructions (see post #8 for details)
  6. Mate, I have used 35W for 3 years until recently I changed them to 55W, much brighter. I reckon the change is more noticable than from 6000k to 4300k. Use your 35W 6000K ones as your foglights and get 55K.
  7. When I was travelling in China this year, I found out their Camry is the same as our Aurion, but only 4 cylinders with single exhaust, no sportivo model. And they don't have our Camry model. So to them, I drive a Camry with two exhaust pipes. I tried to explain to them what TRD is. We ended up settling with "I drive a powerful Camry".
  8. I am not after power gain here, just better noise in high rev. Found a place who does Magnaflow. Will try some on next week.
  9. The SRI might not be street legal in NSW, besides I have already got a K&N panel, don't want to waste that. You said, There is barely any restriction after that front y-pipe by the way. Changing the rear mufflers alone isn't going to help anything towards this 'engine suffocation' you say is there. I have to disagree on this one. any muffler will restrict air flow even the straight through ones. And muffler is a big factor for the sound the car is making. I understand that you can only increase the max air flow by changing the whole system but changing the stock rear mufflers will definately help, agree? I did a search on youtube recently and find some really nice ones such as MTM Audis, too bad it's not available in Au.
  10. No happy with the exhaust sound when in hi rev. It's quiet when drive normally, It sounds ok when I keep my foot down, but once it's over 5k rev I could hear the engine suffocating, awful. Thinking of replace the two rear mufflers. I still enjoy the quietness when doing everyday driving but I want it to scream when in high revs if you know what I mean. Any suggestions? No Varex or similar please because I know I will never open that valve. Chheers!
  11. Mate look at the earlier posts on page one. QUOTE (SecaBoy @ Jun 6 2009, 02:22 AM) the part number is 33-2326. I just got one not long ago. got it from ebay. much cheaper than the TRD filter. A Toyota dealer in Sydney sales the TRD panel filter for $180 I think.
  12. Are you sure you were the one "Not even trying" B)
  13. Guys, here is a photo of the original TRD one. not as shining as the one you are getting.
  14. My advice: stay under the radar. Loud music, loud exhaust, fog lights, fancy stickers, big wheels... all draw attention from the COPs, Do you know how many ways you can get fined if you get pulled over? A simple "not comply with vehicle standard" could cover everything you've done to your car. In addition if you are P plater with a little attitude, you will have less chance.
