  1. I got Brian from Redvan to come out and do mine this afternoon. www.redvan.com.au 0408 254 574

    He is a top bloke, very friendly and has been doing it since 1988 fulltime. He has a very good

    reputation and he comes to your house and does em for only $30 per tyre.

    I can remember when he use to do my dads cars when I was only 8yrs old lol

    I just got a sinlge white line but he does all colours and any thickness you want

  2. Got the white walls done tonight by Brian from Redvan in Sydney,www.redvan.com.au he does a mobile service and comes out

    to you. Only cost $30 per wheel and it only took bout a hour. Top service and a very very friendly bloke who has been doing walls since 1988.

    From far away it makes the rims look like 22s :yahoo:

    Couldn't get it any closer to rim lip cos of my streched 225/35

    I want to get wider tyres but cos off the offset I wanted so it could fill the guards more,

    I cant even get my finger between the tyre and the lip of the guard LoL

  3. I hooked my LED illuminated door sills, dont hook it up to any sensors or you will get that problem.

    This is what I done.

    1. Find a 12v source under the dash or in the drivers kick panel

    2.Connect a small fuse/fuse holder to that source, if its LED all you will need is a small 5 amp fuse as they

    draw very very little power.

    3.Run all the positives from each door sill panel to this source

    4.Then connect every negative from each of the sill panels to thier corresponding door switch

    Not sure if thats how you wired it but that will work so when a individual door is open only that

    sill will light up and you wont get any open door lights staying on

    Hope that helps

  4. Yeah the Lexus is still gettin round the area, a chick owns it now. The S14 was taken to Brisbane.

    I was bout to get a Aurion Prodigy, but then I was lookin on the net and seen so many nice Camrys in the states.

    Even some riding on 22s, I also liked the more aggressive headlights. Then I seen the Grande and I fell in love, everythin inside is basically the same as a Aurion Presara

    I wasnt really after power, just looks, I've had my fun with power. Plus this has heaps more balls

    the the IS200 LoL

  5. Hey guys I was lookin at changing my 6x9s over in the Camry, I have the sat nav flip down headunit

    and was just wonderin if I just change the speakers over will they sound ok running off the standard headunit?

    I got told they would sound similar to standard off the headunit unless I ran a amp?

    What experiences has anyone had out there with just swappin em over

    Cheers

  6. I would definately go with a good set of coilovers, once you have driven on a good set of coilovers

    you can never go back to just springs and shocks again. If you get e decent set of coilovers you can

    get the car to ride as hard or as soft as you want. I can have my car riding even smoother than stock

    if it wasnt as low as it is now.

    Also depends on what size tyres and how low you want to go.

    If you dont want to really go that low then a good set of springs should still ride similar to standard, its only

    when you go lower than bout 2.5" lower than standard when the ride might start to get abit firm
