  1. Expect the same difference level as the current models. Annoys me ... but is safer. It doesn't work ... You get auto headlamp dimming instead. What percentage of people will use the feature? HIDs already on Presara The current model has them on the inside of the door, which gives better angles for getting out of the car. I got hit by one of them opening as I walked past last week ... I am now personally against them. Good at the snow! My ZR6 already does ... I'm sure it will carry over. My centre console power outlet reaches the rear ok ... plus if you're putting people in the boot, don't give them a power source (they can stay on the phone with the police until found). Sounds like your in the market for a new Presara?
  2. Finally something official for Camry ... http://www.toyota.com.au/nextgen-sedans
  3. If you notice it again, it would be worth having a quick look over the wires you have access to, starting with high current ones first - headlamps, alternator, radiator fan, etc.
  4. It has already been done by someone in the Albury/Wodonga area (NSW/VIC boarder), back in around 2008. It has also been done in the US before also. What do you sell?
  5. C'mon, it isn't a flux capacitor! I'm staring at 1000HP/tonne now ... how do you change username? The Aurion has under 175. I've only ever heard stuff like that the other way around. Its cloths are still on ... I am lost for words *shakes head* Joins in
  6. Just thought I would give you all a hint about my next project: The reason I posted here ... I will, regretfully, have to sell my Aurion ZR6 in November, in order to fund my addiction. What have you sold to fund your automotive addictions? Bonus points for buying an Aurion or parts for said Aurion.
  7. If you are talking about the last photo. That is certainly not normal. But if you mean every car you've looked at that has that new stereo system then okay. But if you are talking about all aurions, stock or not, that's not normal. Every Aurion at the Toyota national office (stock audio) has this gap, per the last photo. So too the hybrid Camry.
  8. The top gap has been seen on every car I've looked at, including my own.
  9. Seems the statistics were a little off the mark: 209 Ink.....................237 (38.0%) 1D4 Silver Ash.........233 (37.4%) 3R3 Wildfire...............99 (15.9%) 061 Diamond White...47 (7.5%) 8T4 Tungsten...............7 (1.1%) You'll now know how unique you really are ...
  10. You are clearly not the target audience for that car ... I hereby forbid you, in advance, from entering the 86 club lounge on this site (when it starts mid-2012). If you have a realisation of truth, then you will be warmly welcomed!
  11. You're right that Toyota / Fujitsu Ten have a firmware update, required due to a change in the iOS by Apple. All the dealers have the latest info and the means of repair ... time to make a booking.
  12. Scenario 1 - turn indicators INSURANCE COMPANY: Dear Sir, although you had right of way, the driver of the other vehicle could not see your turn indicator. As your vehicle did not comply with motor vehicle standards, we hereby deny your claim. Scenario 2 - HID Kit POLICE: As a direct result of your vehicle modifications not meeting motor vehicle standards, Mr Blank (oncoming driver) was unable to see the road hazard/bend in sufficient time to respond, resulting in the death of one of the vehicle occupants. These may be severe examples, but once you do a police accident investigation course, you see how such small things can be so bad.
  13. What needs replacing and why? Have the shafts fallen off? Are the boots leaking grease?
  14. No replacement for me, but I am curious about what has gone wrong with them (I plan to put 400HP through mine, hence I would like to know of what could go wrong). Here is a link to a parts diagram to help you explain, should you want to use the part numbers. Does that price include labour?
  15. The E1 mark on the lens shows that it is an ADR 6/00 approved item: The "authorities" could put it into the same basket as hyper blue headlamps (needs ADR 51/00 approval) or HID kits on a car without auto-levelling lamps and headlamp washers (requires ADR 46/00 approval). Getting a LED globe of the same type as the original shouldn't be a problem. You should be aware that changing how the reflector and lens work together, with your mod, could impact on an insurance claim ...
  16. Just keep in mind that your car will be unroadworthy ... and you will never see the result.
  17. Yes, yes & yes. The answers to all of your questions lies within this forum ... just search. To keep it all in one place, please post your questions here.
  18. Check you manual, which may just state that it will not display names and numbers whilst the vehicle is in motion.
  19. Link here ... Funny how they got the project number wrong ... lol
  20. Anything changed with your toyotalink subscription or mayday ecu / battery?
  21. Using my spare alternator, it looks like it interferes with the radiator (where the radiator cap is) and the radiator support panel. Of you want to shift it to the passenger side, the oil dip stick tube is then in the way. I would be prepared and grab yourself some Toyota coolant (you may need automatic transmission fluid too) ... You'll need the non-reusable parts before you start anyway (the ones with the black circles): Would you consider a dealer quite for the work?
  22. Unfortunately, the repair manual requires radiator removal: I've only removed when the engine is not in the car, so I don't have any tricks for you :(
  23. This is not sports or sequential shift. It is "Select-mode" and should be used like any other auto that has the shift lever go along the lines of P-R-N-D-3-2-L ... did you use that transmission as a manual? No would be the answer. It is designed to be used in situations where you are towing and need to Select a lower gear to prevent excessive loading and overheating. That said, I use it for engine braking, pre-selecting the minimum corner gear and for when I need a better launch (S1 activates one of the transmission brakes which I like the feel of). I expect this will be improved in the new model next year ... ;)
