on level 3 but near da level four car entrance.

ah ok, that makes sense know

high as in suspension wise

agreed....lower it lol

and give the damn thing a wash.. :o

unfortunately im working on friday night. i finish 830 pm :(

who recons i should chuck a sickie :D again....... im like sick once a week. haha hmmm maybe i could get a doctors cert sayin i hurt my back.

if u dont live that far from the meeting place, u can still come, i think we will be there for a while and if not u can grab sumones number and meet up with us if we're having dinner or sumthing

but yes, a sickie would be better, but its up to u

well i didn't mean go buy a radio, just if u have one to bring it, so we can communicate

level 3 btw

oh hahah... yer which part of level 3??? da part dat is closer to myers or da part closer to da level 4 entrence?

not really familiar with the carpark...which ever is better/empty at the time, first person to get there put ur hazards on or sumthing then everyone will know, just look for the toyotas

so do u think 8 or 8:30....personally i dont think there is much point in making it 30mins later as it really isn't going to change travel plans that much, but if we r there at 8 it gives us 30mins more to do other stuff

yer tru tru... well make it near the LEVEL 4 entrence... if i can be bothered i will head personally to blacktown carpark and take pics of where 2 park unless GT LOST has a better suggestion haha

level 4 or 3? dont u think inside would be better?

nice, maybe when i have a little bit more money i will invest in one...

Hey all, that looks mad do u think it would look ok if i did that to my gen 4 camry?

at the moment,

the lights circled in white are the brake and parker lights

the lights circled in black are the parkers only

i thought of making the ones in black parker and brake aswell as the white ones

how do u think that would look?

I thought that at night, those lights that you have circled in black come on when you hit the brakes???

pretty sure... but then again, i can't remember everything :P

and yes, i will have to run extra cables but thats kool, im pretty tech savy...i've run blue neons that come on when u open the doors, and i've wired up the whole sound system including amp by myself so it should be fine

Evo

the ones circled in black are the parker lights (come on with the headlights)

the ones in white are the parker/brake lights

well i didn't mean go buy a radio, just if u have one to bring it, so we can communicate

level 3 btw

Are you torquing (:P) about an Engine Torque Dampers? If so, the Camry has a fixed torque rod already. I'm not sure adding a different type would make much difference on your car, except add vibrations. This is the stock one as seen on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Toyota-Camry-Apollo...93%3A1|294%3A50

Gav.

isn't that an engine mount?

the one im thinking of looks like this

edit: ok it didn' work but its of auscam

http://auscam.org/forum/index.php?topic=132.0

if the owner of the car wants the link removed, let me know

I've seen now a few people putting torque rods on the cars and wanted to know wot they actually do..

how much they cost...

where i can get one...

can i install it myself...

any help will be appreciated

Hey man im 70% in and ill try and bring my mate and his supra and another mate with his liberty.

thanks, first post has been edited

what time???? cause i just found out that i aint workin on friday... hahah and this time we need more people to come i think it would be more fun with alot more people going =]... SAME SPOT ASD BEFORE GTLOST???

and are we going to be meeting a wespoint blacktown LEVEL 3?????

hope maximas can come along i want to check out his ROLLA lol

not the same spot....GTLO5T suggested the playtime place (which he will provide a map) and yes we need heaps of people to come once we finalise time and place we can post on other forums...

btw i'll be bringing a minimum of 2 cars with me, tell ur friends guys

Lets do a roll call, see whos definetly coming....

Definetly:

-addy287 (and friends)

-GTLO5T

-Armstrong

Maybe:

-Toyo Assassin

-123R-Prozak

is that it?

btw GTLO5T to prevent people getting lost, could u provide a map of where we meet on google maps or sumthing. Once were at the meet if we feel its necessary to exchange numbers we can.

One thing, bring hand held CB radios, mad fun

Aight well wen me n mates go on cruzes we usually meet up at GREAT WESTERN HUNGRY JACKs, MT DRUITT STARBUCKS or MT DRUITT CAR WASH... So its up to u guys where use wana meet up at...

The lookouts called Hawkesbury Lookout its on Springwood Road its a pretty funn drive...

I think playtime closes at 10 or 10.30 so we mite need to meet up abit earlier if we wana get a few games in...

Hows about gettin a feed b4 we cruz upto the lookout???

Dont worry ADDY287 u cars sweet bro who cares if its a boat!!! LOL!! i bet it'll sound PHAT!!

that it does my friend. :P

so you reckon, meet at playtime have a few games....go have sum food, go for a drive

I'm not a lead foot , and dont gunn it but don't drive "like a little old lady" either

On the way to work I'm am stuck in traffic in the mornings .... it will take 25-35 min to go 10km from Caufield to Collingwood about the same in the arvos, mostly stuck around the bridge crossing the South Eastern in Burnley / Richmond way

I found this link too , and am not sure , what is being meant by driving the car hard

resetting the ECU

Do you mean go on a long freeway drive etc at 100km/hr .... or just drive it aggressively?

around town? on a race track??

I havent driven a car with an ECU before , and dont know what to expect.

Should i reset the ECU ... as you describe and then just drive to work?

Things i did notice when i got the car that sometimes it would seem to accellerate differently when i was diving the same

that it would slowdown a bit quicker or accelerate longer after i took my foot off it, but that seems to have settled down now.

The car has done 240,000 km when i got it ... it was high and i was concerned but it was at redbook price from a dealer with warranty and in great condition.

I got it serviced at by Toyota for a minor service and timing belt change as that not been done !! a week after i got it

They gave me the full service history as i asked for it and i can see that the Engine computer was checked for fault codes at 135,000km service.

what do you think..... sould they have picked up any issues with ECU or any thing else ....

i said they could have gone ahead and done a major service if needed, as it would be due for one at 247,000 KM

I hope its not the kms that have reduce the economy ... RACV gave it a full check

By resetting the ECU it will then learn how u drive and adapt to that. The others mentioned driving hard but this would only be if you were looking for performance, if u r just a typical daily driver then just drive the way u always do and the ECU will learn this and it is possible that the fuel consumption will drop, if it doesn't there is no harm done by resetting it anyway

GTLO5T....u seem to know a good place to meet....gimme the address and i'll edit the first post

also where is this mountain that u guys cruised up? sounds like fun, although the camry is a bit of a boat lol

I'm up for anything...tell me the time and place and i'll be there...

btw how could his rolla keep up with urs? or weren't u guys going for it?

Lol I'll show up but I'm not playing aqua.. Most def go if we go for a drive afterwards.. And if mt druitt coles is coming I'll stay a distance behind lol

haha nah i dont want to play golf either, i just wanna see ur cars, take photos and go for a drive sumwhere

organise another one, like THIS coming friday and i will also bring sum mates along...

and wots with sumthing about Toyo Assassin almost hitting sumthing?

I've also got a problem with my 98 v6....

when u initially start it, it will go to about 12-1300rpm, then down to about 700 then straight back to about 12-1300....

is this a problem? or am i just being paranoid? :(

is this all in the space of a second or two, or over the course of a few minutes? if it's happens in one or two seconds, you'll probably have to clean the MAF sensor, or replace it. if it's over the course of a few minutes, then i have NFI.

happens instantly.....how do i clean the sensor?
