Finally, maybey a light at the end of the tunnel.

Guys, i just got in contact with Thailand. I emailed these guys about 2 weeks ago, saying there are alot of buyers here in australia chasing Camry/ Aurion parts. A guy named ying ying replied and said he will sell to Australia, but his written enlish was very broken, and I think he got confused and sent me the wrong catalogue.

He sent me a catalogue for Yaris parts. But i replied and asked for a Camry parts catalogue. This shop has both chrome grills and the plastic ones. Hopefully in the next couple of days i will get a reply, if not ill try the mobile he left me. And fingers crossed we may be in luck with finally having a stable contact at this shop.

If his english isnt the best, ill post his mobile on the forum, and maybey one of you guys can speak a bit of thai or know someone who does, and have a yarn to him.

Has anyone spoken to this guy before on the email yet, because if you have and it didnt work out, tell me and I wont bother chasing it up.

keep you posted.

This is what pics of some stock he has for the asian camry i have received by email from himso far. But i know he is stocking chrome grills and wald kits as per the two websites as well, still awaiting another reply of more stock. No prices including freight yet.

see attached photos

and have a photo of a engine bay strut bar, but it has a big camry engraved on it, didnt worry about posting that photo. When I get more photos ill post them and hopefully ill have a price.

Hey Bondie - thanks for being so persistent with the kits yea.

If you can get the lip kit and the grille - then I'm in for sure mate.

However if there are a couple of kits - post up some pics for us - would be great to be have some variety to choose from.

Cheers

No worries boys. Sorry about the qualilty but these pics, they are the only pics he has sent, take what we get i say. Im flat out trying to speak to him, i have to keep my english very basic.

Im not really after a bodykit or lip kit, but more chasing a grill. But what i will do, will set up some sort of secure pay system, some sort of pay pal etc. Ill order a grill and if it comes up trumps and i receive the goods in one piece and there is no probs, then we are in business. But if i get shafted, well it will be only a hundred and something bucks loss and im willing to take the hit for the boys, gotta be worth a shot. which will be better than everyone orignally putting in a mass order and losing out.

If the he does become a fair dinkum contact, i have already told him there are plenty of buyers interested, if he wants Australia's business. So if it works out, i will email all the details to you all, payment system , email address etc, and you can talk to him direct. At the moment im emailing him one day and getting a return email the next day.

So now we have the contact, and now he interested to sell, it should be pretty easy to construct the supply chain.

The question about the other parts for other cars, jump on to the two websites and have a gander and ill ask him a question. As i said he sent through a yaris cataglogue, so i dear say he caters for many types of cars.

keep you posted.

I dont know, it looks like it is black gloss. We will have to see what it is like when it turns up. It will be going on sprags beast so fingers crossed, it will look sweet. I sent a pic of the chrome and the matt black from sueezeme's 1 asking for a quote, but got back a quote for the pic of the gloss black one and the chrome one.

If this supply chain works, then we can ask him more questions on alternative stock, but i didnt want to confuse him, on the first order, and therefore putting Australia in the " too hard basket" and not supplying to us. Just kept the first one simple, to establish a link.

keep you guys posted.

What i reckon will be the best way to do it, if this pans out. Is, ill give you guys the contact, and to have one representive for each state put in a order. Therefore you wont have to pay delivery charges twice. 1. to get to Australia, and 2. shipping to everyone around austraila when the bulk order comes in. Or atleast keeping the delivery charges to a minium. Im happy to look after queensland, thats no drama's.

How he works is, you tell him what you want attaching a pic to the email, and he sends a invoice with pics attached, so there is no confusion. Then you pay by pay pal.

I told the guy if this deal goes well, he will hav alot of people contacting him, therefore having more business comming his way.

He doesnt get back from holidays till the 13th till i speak to him next,

Update on the 13th hopefully.

Guys...

I've queried around on another forum who also sourced their aftermarket parts from Thailand, and said the company we are dealing with are pretty good and reputatable...

Very good bang for the bucks and the courier fees yes it is that expensive unfortunately...

If anyone could show me how to take off the grill (without taking off the damn bumper...) i probably go for the chrome grill too ! lol

Hi Guys: i'm in Thailand as i write this email. i bought one more black grill that is coming home with me in the plane for anyone willing to buy it.

cost $140 plush shipping cost within Australia. i'm in Nsw and i generally used Australian Post registered mail, however being a fragile item i would suggest transit insurance or similar.

they got a new order in, and the mesh is now silver. that is what i have got with me right now.

they told me that all this new order are all black plastic with silver mesh instead of the black mesh i purchased 10 days ago.

just look at Bondai's pics and that is the one. as far as i can see it is mat black, not gloss. i think they have used some plastic spray to make it shinny for the photo.

the mesh is very easy to be detached and you can spray paint it whichever color you wish to.

if anyone is interested, PM me and it is yours. i'm not interested in auction it so first in first dressed.

i'll be getting one more in few weeks time

cheers

I checked postage cost with insurance.

i can supply the black grille to your door step anywhere in Oz by Australian Post registered mail and item insured for $200.

total cost $165 delivered to your address.

please bear in mind i'm bringing the item myself so i cannot do a baulk order. the first one is it almost gone. i'll be bringing one more in a moth time, so PM me if you are interested.

if you want to order one $50 deposit to make sure of your commitment.

cheers

I got my Grill from the same guys that Bondie has gotten in contact with. The mesh was already black n i didn't request for it. I just took what they had and hoped for the best lol.. However!.. i'm not sure if the clips holding the Grill were broken/missing during its trip to Perth but i had to add in my own clips (Cable tie n silicon glue) lol.. In the end the Grill turned up quiet nice.. I guess u get what you pay for..

Hopefully i should get them in about a week.

      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.
