  1. Hi Pete, Thanks for your reply. I think you will find that most of the members on this forum do work full time as well, myself included. I think that I need to state right here and now that this forum is the "Toyota Owners Club" Not the Corolla owners club, not the Aurion owners club, not the Celica owners club or any other model for that matter. The different sections are merely to break the forum up to keep things simple and organised. No, there isnt a section for every Toyota ever made, understandably so as there are only a few Toyota models that gain the attention of true enthusiasts. I'm sorry that you arent happy with the fact that the Avalon and Aurion sections are grouped together. To me, this makes perfect sense. - The Aurion is the (much improved) replacement vehicle for the Avalon, in the same way the Yaris is to the Echo. They dont have seperate sections either. - I cannot think of one Avalon owner. However, if we did have an owner, they would have a section, otherwise we would hear them complaining instead. To me, it seems like the Aurion members are only interested in their section. The person that started this thread hasnt even bothered to come back and reply! We are trying to help, but we need imput from all members to make this forum better for everyone. You need to understand that 6 months ago, this forum was 99% full of Corolla owners, and as such the majority of moderators turned out to be Corolla owners. Since then, different sections have increased in numbers and activity, and we want to accomodate this, but if the non-corolla members won't use the rest of the forum, I dont see what we can do to help. More than happy to take suggestions.
  2. I agree, I thought the 182's were convertibles, 184's standard, and 185's Turbo 4WD
  3. ahahaha leroy is refering to a different Alicia. Whom i hope he didn't get giggidy with. Same thing though Rob. Must run in the name.
  4. yep everything from ces has gone up in price, but despite my arguments, no one will update the price on this forum. Someone should argue with ces about the price listed on this forum and see how they go :P
  5. there is no proof that any cold air intake gives more power than another type. Even if you tried to prove it, there are too many variables that could affect the results. A cai is a cai, all it does is suck air into the car from a different position than standard. Get the trd, much better value at this price!
  6. a cai is just a pipe. They are all basically the same.
  7. Does the noise get louder as the revs go up? Could be an small leak in an engine hose, or perhaps the manifold gasket falling to pieces
  8. Yeah Bill! Our e-peens are massive! Our e-peens, in fact, are the hero of this, and EVERY hour, and can access all orifice, growler and blurter! Oh Bill, it's so heavy since Saturday. I'm finding it hard to walk. Mick how are you coping? Did tape it to your leg like I did? It helps. Nah, I just wrapped it around my leg 3 times and tucked it into my belt
  9. Hi Aurion members, I hate to point this out but I havent seen a comment from any of you in this topic. Not sure why. We would like to see the Aurion section more integrated with the rest of the forum. You do all realise that there are more sections to this forum, dont you? There are sections such as the Club lounge for off topic discussions, Member's Rides to show off your pride and joy, as well as the Suspension, Exhaust, and Stereo sections, just to name a few. It seems that all the Aurion members only post in the Aurion section. What can we (the rest of the forum) do to integrate you further with us? Perhaps some of you could look at posting in THIS topic for a start. Please Aurion members, I have opened this topic back up so post your thoughts. Cheers.
  10. Definately not more expensive, and fastest i've seen. I'm still waiting for my quote to come back from Nextmod, and i've had the 3 C-one Final Drive's for almost 6 months now.
  11. The wheels are probably all bent and buckled. Dont be suprised if you get a flat tyre in a day or 2
  12. Credit where credit is due my friend. Come down to the 'Berra and then tell me about cold nights in the workshop/outside DIY-ing :P :P :P
  13. Hey Rob, U still have my car charger?
  14. jules, your awesomeness exceeds any words that could describe it. This thing will be a weapon, good work with the diy, i love it!
  15. hahahahahahah hook line and sinker :P :P :P :P :P :P :P good show mickster. LMAO
  16. Looking sweet!! Engine mod time :D
  17. because i'm epic when you are merely a noob. Nah no idea. Could be the octane boost, could be the zorst. Could just be the mystery of the universe.
  18. No one seems to have commented on Rob's name on his dyno sheet either
  19. No run with the torque curve Silva, AFR is much more interesting to me.
  20. Thanks to all for the nice comments. Except Bill, bite me, my e-***** is huge now and u are just jealous. If you can get them to build a dragway here, i'd be there in a second, and beating your na 1/4 time. Cheers to rob for the invite, and also for pipping me at the post by 0.1kw!! Not that I mind, as stated my AFR graph is much better, and my car has consistant power up high, where rob's started struggling a little :P The tuner did say he would rather drive my car teehehehe. But Rob, I agree with was best that our results were basically the same. Showed those pulsar boys that the rolla is a force to be reckoned with in the na FWD stakes :P Makes sense now when we go from the lights that we are neck and neck, we always have been. Still goes to show that Canberra represents! This means that all Canberra Sportivo's* put out over 120kw atw. My mods are AEM cold air intake (with a hole in it) and a CES exhaust. * tested

    alarm remotes

    work out what brand the alarm is, email the company for a new remote and the instructions on how to program it.
  22. Hey All, Rob (Badboys/Heinz) and I crashed the Pulsar club's dyno day today. Happy to say that we both successfully beat every Pulsar present, which was our initial aim. Best of the day was the 2-door R31 skyline that had lots of work done to it, it put out 220kw. My result: I'll let Rob post his later :P :P

    Things to do in NZ

    I'll add, i'm going with the GF, so looking to do some adventure activites, some cultural, and lots of touristy things. No family stuff LOL, too young for that I think the gf also wants to go horseriding, so if someone can suggest somewhere cool to do that I may consider it :P
