    VFX, that is just the standard thailand camry grill, but just painted. If you go to ebay, Nick Wang is selling on there for $149.00. You would just have to have it colour coded.

    Bondie - can you get more of these grills as Iam intrested in one if anyone wants to go halfs with me and share the postage.

    Cheers

    I had gathered more info about this grill and found out that they are custom made.

    Still lookin deeper into it.

    Bondie is right. The grill is standard Thailand Grill but painted black.

    The spoilers are custom made called "Wald Style"

    so those will be the same eyelids we will be getting?

    i emagine so man there the only ones ive ever seen...black car like urs would look mint with them :D

    Better check, cos I've found this car with eyelids but I think they may be custom. I've still got my custom idea but until the money starts flowing again I cant do anything

  6. Lol @ the silver aurion... AUTOBOTS ROLL OUT!

    I'd purchase the TRD kit, however I've noticed that all these thai sites the same factory red trd aurion. surely it wouldn't look at good as in the pics.

    I think you are confused. Toyota Thailand is NOT selling TRD Kit but it is selling another style.

    See Attached (not so clear brochure).

  7. yip count me in!

    are there any pics of the eyelids btw?

    Attached are pictures from Toyota Brochure.

    The link below (better pictures) are replica

    http://www.valencia2005.com/toyota.asp?m_id=59

    Is there any difference with the rear from Original Toyota and the rear of SX6 in the Website?

    I gave them a pic with an SX6 rear but he gave me the Toyota ones..

    please count me in for those eyelids!!!!!!

    1. VF-X

    2. ZZR88

    3. DJKOR

    4. eSEXSIX

    whos organising them btw?

    cheers

    I'll try talkin to the Thai people 1st and see if I can organize this.. It's always easier to see who has interests on the eye lids first. ;)

    Sorry I wish I can you the difference between SX6 and the Toyota.

    OK. Let me know if you know guys need help talking to them.

  8. Genuine Toyota eyelids huh? Is that even possible, LOL. I am so up for a pair, though for AUD$100, they better be good quality.

    Why not have a genuine parts only available in Thailand when there are geunine parts only available in Australia (i.e. TRD)

    I am getting the duck tail and the material looks good. Though you gotta make a hole in the car.

    Will post pictures of my car once finished. :D

  9. Any good tuner should be able to tune it, you will however need to have an "interceptor" or "piggy back" type computer plugged in.

    You don't need to look to Australia for Tuners...Down nearer down south in Singapore are a number of reputed tuners.

    I personally don't think that there's anything special in the engine or tuning about the TRD except for the branding and body kit. If you have the money to spend, you can probably get an Aurion to handle better and produce more power for much much less than the cost of an upgrade to a TRD Aurion (Comparing new to new - however, I heard that TRD Aurions are now very much discounted)

    Having said that, my next question is, why bother? It still won't be branded a TRD...which at the end of the day, is what ppl pay for and its the branding that will hold its value - not some aftermarket tuned Aurion.

    Is there an Aurion Super Charger or Turbo model engine?

    I already own a V6 and would like more performance.

  10. Guys.

    If you want a lip like the style in Thailand, let me know.

    They are from Thailand Toyota Dealer.

    In Thailand, they are called Camry Extremo which is simply a 2.0 Camry with sport styling.

    Price including paint in Thailand is approx. 33,000 Baht (you can do the conversion yourself).

    By the way, the price above is for front and rear lip, side skirt and back spoiler.

    Be glad to help all of you.

  11. Nice car...

    Gotta love Thailand and their love for Jap cars and unrestricted modding rules... (well, lack of modding rules)

    I remember when I was in Bangkok and Phuket last year - some of those Camrys were NICE!! "V6 Camrys" anyway... :P

    Are you sure you saw V6 camry?

    Most camry in Thailand are 2.0 or 2.4.

    V6 is a rare sight :rolleyes:

  12. Super charger (not sure if engine needs to be replaced)

    TRD Brakes

    Suspension

    Transmission

    Exhaust (may be not)

    Electrical system (may be not)

    Hope we have some experts/mechanics here who knows

    I'm no expert but I think:

    Supercharger - yes of course. Engine remains the same. The supercharger is a TVS model made by Eaton. No intercooler was added as it would have required modification to fuel lines, adding to development costs.

    Brakes - Made by a company called PBR in Australia

    Suspension - Definetely stiffened, and the car is significantly lower than the standard Sportivos.

    Transmission - Seems to be same as non-TRD but with addition of transmission cooler

    Exhaust - Same

    Electrical system - same

    Tyres - changed to Dunlop Sport Maxx (245/35/ ZR19) with modified camber and toe-in

    Body kit

    Other aesthetics - TRD interior trim, build number, added colour to steering wheel

    All TRD Aurions start off as Sportivos, SX6 for the 3500S and ZR6 for the 3500SL. They are then handed over to a company called Prodrive who does the conversion for Toyota. As you can imagine, the less conversion work required, the less expensive it is to make a TRD. They then channel the profit they make off the TRD to cover research costs which were in the millions. With the premature canning of the TRD vehicles and abysmal sales, I doubt Toyota came anywhere close to recouping their research and development costs.

    Even if you bought all the right parts and somehow got them installed, you'd still have to calibrate them. The car was extensively tested on the track by TRD and fine-tuned. Unless you have got that kind of expertise, it will be pretty hard to emulate the TRD Aurion exactly.

    Thanks alot for your reply

    Looks like the major issue is with the super charger and finding the expert to fine tune it.

    Any experts (who can fine tune the TRD) coming to Thailand for vacation :rolleyes:

  13. I hope this post will not upset Aurion TRD owners too much for "wannabe"

    But since Aurion TRD are not available worldwide all we can do is try.

    My question is:

    What is needed for a stock V6 to become Aurion TRD? (excluding exterior design)

    I can think of the following:

    Super charger (not sure if engine needs to be replaced)

    TRD Brakes

    Suspension

    Transmission

    Exhaust (may be not)

    Electrical system (may be not)

    Hope we have some experts/mechanics here who knows
