    That may get you in the 13's... not 12's.

    I've been in a couple of 12sec street driven cars, they are "stupid fast" on the street.

    My POS corolla will do 13's without much trouble, when the new motor goes in 12's are possible if the diff holds up to the launch with semi slicks.

    Will get Northy, Shao and MAP81 out to Willowbank to witness the run with the new motor when it's done (very strong 7agte in very light AE71)

  2. you can get the car serviced anywhere you want as long as they're licenced. They just have to use the genuine service parts to keep the warranty intact. The toyota filters are pretty good anyway, I use them on all my toyota's. No point risking your engine warranty for the sake of an extra $15 per service.

  3. if you go with a full standalone ECU like the microtech or EMS, you will loose full control of the VVTi. There's only a couple of aftermarket standalone ECU's out there that can control it correctly, and they are quite expensive (eg Motec). With the piggyback ECU's the stock ECU still controls the VVTi so that's all good, but they're still just piggyback ecu's modifying the stock ECU's input and output.

    The emanage works well on the 1ZZ, and has been used with quite a bit of success on 1ZZ turbo installs in the US. It has more features than the Unichip, and gives you the flexibility of not requiring an "Unichip Authorised" workshop who have paid for the unichip software to tune it. There is a new version of the emanage being released soon which has even more features than the current unit, I'll be getting my hands on one to see what it can do when it's released.

  4. 4afe is injected. The belt should be replaced at the 100K service.

    Use whatever grade oil is specified in the owners manual unless the car is burning oil (unlikely)

    The 100K service is usually a major service, so your wallet will be significantly lighter afterwoods. Usually includes timing belt, coolant and box oil change, plugs, all filters etc. a lot more labour than the usual plain old oil swap and grease door hinges.

  5. You wont find anyone cheaper to get TRD parts from than Warwick at Bowater Toyota in NZ.

    If you email him with a part number, or description and your car's full model and frame number he will sort you out.

    warwick.parts@bowater.toyota.co.nz

    TRD and parts specialist

    Bowater Toyota Nelson

    0800 BOWATER

    I've saved thousands of dollars by purchasing through Warwick.
