yummm

Hmm, sounds about right,
how about a short shifter too? since manual
I believe there is a short shifter kit for the E53 (not to be confused with the e153) but i can't remember who makes it.
-
I have not seen a picture of that car in my whole entire 9 lives. but yes... its different but I wouldn't own one
Still reminds me of the 86 (which I don't mind given I think it looks great). Looks pretty sharp to me, nothing wrong with looking a little flash. It doesn't look overdone or ****y.

A few things off the top of my head which can be done 'easily' (ie - off the shelf or easily acquired and worth doing):
- Headers (OBX makes off the shelf ones which should fit) + catback (wouldn't bother with a high flow cat, I am still using the factory one)
- High flow panel filter or a SRI/CAI setup
- Ultra Racing strut brace
- Ultra Racing front lower 4-point brace
- Ultra Racing rear lower bars (2x 2 point bars)
- Ultra Racing 19mm RSB or Whiteline 20mm blade adjustable RSB
- Offset control arm bushes if your car is pulling to the left (SuperPro, Nolathane, Whiteline)
- Superpro front lower steering rack bushes (makes a big difference to steering response)
- Kings/Lovells both make a low or superlow spring. Take away about 10mm of their predicted lowering heights
- ACV40R/GSV40R front brake upgrade (a must do! big difference over the standard Gen5 ones) or if you can afford it a TRD Aurion front brake upgrade (need 17" rims though).
That's all I can think of for now.
BTW, Pacific Blue looks really good when you throw a layer of wax or two on it :)
-
Nice! Looking good
-
Most people buy camry/aurion as family cars, so why pay more for 6 cylinders when 4 is responsive around town and excellent on.the highway. Resale values on TRD are terrible.because they were overpriced when new, look boring, and are only front wheel drive. LOL!
What has the TRD Aurion got to do with the fuel consumption on the ACV40R, 2.4L 6th Generation Camry?
BTW, you're having a bath if you think the 2az-fe holds a candle to the 2gr-fe/2gr-fze which have more power and better fuel consumption (though the FZE is closer to the 2az in fuel consumption but look at the power).
You can't compare the Aurion to the Camry anyway they are two different kettles of fish.

Since everyone else seems to be throwing in their opinion.

There's not much more
Boost.

its over man, both his accounts are banned. Just moved this here for the lolz.
Still was a good show!

'go better' is such a generic term.
What specifically do you want? Fuel economy? Straight line speed? Sharper handling? Comfortable ride? Stiffer ride?

What is the equivalent of Mothers Step 1,2 & 3 if I am going to shift to Autoglym products.
Using Mothers brand
Step 1 : Prewax cleaner
Step 2 : Sealant & Glaze
Step 3 : Wax
The most appropriate Autoglym replacements would be:
- Step 1: HD Cleanser
- Step 2: Ultra Deep Shine followed by Extra Gloss Protection (they don't have a sealant and glaze in one)
- Step 3: Aqua Wax or HD Wax
There really isn't. I remember the good old days before the war when I too was looking for a replacement to these products. I'm personally not a fan of auto glum (except there glass polish). Your for a nicely packaged, better marketed product. The difference is next to none. Personally, It comes down to your "Hard-Core-Ness" (HCN) factor. Are you looking to add some shine that looks good for a couple of weeks or spend that little more and get some that will blow your socks off?
If your looking for products that you can get from the local Super cheap / autobarn, then stick with mothers or megs, auto glym is just overpriced and the results dont justify the spend.
Going to have to disagree with you on that. I have found every AutoGlym product I have used worth the extra money over the Meguiars or Mothers equivalent.
So much so, just last week I got my delivery of 5L Super Resin Polish. I have not used anything else that comes close to what this stuff can do. I have implemented it into my correcting procedure as it culls the need to use a 'final polish before waxing and responds well to being waxed over as well.

Basically take your anger out on someone that deserves it and not me, be an adult!!
See my above posts RE: Gabe Potter, the criminal.

Unlike many vehicle owners... (let's say Lancer or Celica) I have no illusion as to what my car is and what it can do!
Save the jacket, i hear it is mighty cold in the depths
-
lol... i said a bit of cred - not make it fast... it can still look good and sound tough... the old "all show - no go" saying applies...
You cannot have any cred if you drive a Camry.
You might have nice looking alloys, an exquisite sound system or perhaps a nice sounding exhaust but you won't get any cred.
-
If u want a bit of cred get some nice wheels, pod filter, cat back exhaust, nice tint, lower it and clean it up and u will have urself a nice cruiser. Some nice floor mats and seat covers and a banging stereo. That will cost u about 2,000 bucks all up roughly.
Not possible. It is a camry

I had the same issue and once i replaced the fuel pump filter (the sock), this problem went away. I also got back about 1L/100km in economy as well.
Depending on how many km you have done, a on vehicle injector clean isn't a bad idea either. Lube mobile offer this service and I paid touch under $200 for it.

Die as in rev but the gain in speed does not match? V6 or 4cyl?
No TCS on the Gen5's, the last of the cable throttle.

OMG there's a girl on the forum!
Hang on a minute...

Oh, and welcome to the forums.

There was a similar product being used here a short while ago to clean out the intake manifolds of turbo diesels... up until a few engines started blowing up, and the supplier withdrew all of it from the market.
... at least they paid for the repairs
Nulon still make a similar product:

Mighty tempted to see how it goes.

Not sold on this. Seems like a gimmick to me. Especially at $85 including Postage.
