get BC, cheap and good

I might be getting caught for speeding doing 115 in a 110 zone, looking at the following video

What do you think?

The road changes from 100 to 110, and a mobile speed camera is waiting for you. There is no warning sign in advance.. I find it very sneaky, I hope I am not getting busted..

Although it is only 1 point and 105 dollars, that is ridiculous.. 115 on a 110 right after the sign changed from 100 to 110

Location is hume highway after m5 near cambelltown, camera flashed at 0:37

reading from the ebay item description, it says "Genuine Toyota Light Brackets "

I got a pair of fog light today, but unfortunately, no brackets, The price is $99 delivered

I ask Toyota for a price for bracket, $100 pair includes GST, that is a total of $200

The above item in ebay sells it for $270, smart !!

also, ordering from UK is another option (the picture is wrong, part number is correct)

delivery will be around 150 AUD

I recently have my side skirt ordered delivered for 350 AUD (not painted, so they are not ripping you off the price)

Good Pick of the brakes, please attach a photo of what it is like now. Thanks

Nice driving on wakefield................

any feeling on that day regarding the driving?

i love your old car more

oh dear

suprise, struct brace for this car in http://www.ultraracing.com.my

Ok , I think Remsa Pads won´t fit.

My car was build in GB and these are other Pads which I need .

No, Can you read carefully the label, it is designed for UK Auris 1.4, 1.6, not JP Auris at the first place.. It will fit your car. and I can find the part number in remsa web shop (if you know spanish), I don't know Spanish, but it did not take long to find my car there. All European Auris is listed in the web shop

Thanks Ben. I allready contacted the eBay seller, waiting for the response. I have also contacted Goodridge and they promised me to make a copy kit for AU$ 30 + VAT + shipping, which is not that bad. I will have to send the original hoses to them though.

Traxx, why aren't you keen on Black Diamond or Endless?

Do not contact that ebay seller, that ebay seller is in Australia, contact the one in UK. Goodridge is a UK brand, why would it make something not fit their car in UK at the first place. No need to make a copy kit...Go to Toyota and ask their part number, the part number for brake lines has not been changed for a long time, so the Goodridge lines will fit

So, Ben, do you mean that those brake lines would fit my car? Didn't quite understand. At least the seller states that they will fit any car... I have 2007 auris which is built in the UK.

Traxx, please let me know the part number for Tarox brake lines.

i think so, they are manufactured in UK, why would it not fit your car !!! I lost the part number already, but it is better for you to ask first, I have called Goodridge via someone else before buying it..You can ask Toyota to see whether the OEM part number for the brake line is the same since 2001..

Remsa is cheap and good, temperature is 650 degrees, it only costs me 114 AUD per pair for front. thus it is europoean made, save your postage fee.

It is designed for european auris as you can find in the following label, so you don't need to worry about the fitment. This pad

You just need to find the supplier in Europe

QFM is made locally in Australia, and it has to be custom made here, the good ones costs $170 per pair for front, and they are not designed for heavy street use because they kill rotors, so REMSA is your choice.

For braided brake lines, I use Goodridge (UK made). it is the same as last version of auris (pre 07) using ZZE engines

Please don't expect to find everything on the internet, you need to pick up the phone and call to ask

My car is made in Japan

saw the threads on the rear shock, is this a coilover? The thread can only be seen at the top part of the shock ath the front?

i can only tell you when I pull off my left seat, there is one plug for the airbag (one yellow, one grey), and one for the seat belt sensor... I am not an electrican, but I guess you can do something about it

remsa, spanish pads

I use them on the track and they are brilliant

After doing some back ground theory reading and users experiences on larger rotors and calipers... users experience seem to be better than theory. Is this the placebo effect? Is larger calipers and rotors actually going to further improve my braking abilities on my Camry when i did not pair the other components like the master and the car only used as a daily?

I am having doubts... lol... I guess I will give it a go.

Thank you for reading. ^_^

I have done a lot of research in this areas, in summary,

in some scenario, large rotor might stops longer due to brake bias imbalance. Brake balance is an such important factor to be considered, unfortunately, it is very hard to adjust, even with bigger front rotor, the braking distance actually increase..The first link below shows braking distance increase in a Honda DC5 after changing to a large front rotor

I won't go for larger rotor because if you study the brake mechanism (http://www.myturbodi...c/brake/PF3.jpg), master cyclinder is not designed for that. changing the rotor will just imbalnce the braking equation

I recommend you read the following articles. I have cleared up a lot of misconception about braking

http://www.sportcomp...tech/index.html - case where a well designed big brake kit on a modified car resulted in worse braking

http://www.zeckhause...kes.htm#Summary - test result on different size rotors, increasing the rotor size by 28mm will result in decreasing braking distance by 5 feet from 100mph to 0

http://www.myturbodi...q/brake_FAQ.htm

change before (and prefer after), i use the oil three times on the track

0w-40, 5w-40...

just don't push hard with the brakes and you will be fine at stock, mine rotor has a temperature 370 to 400C when driving hard, stock pad break down >300C, so make you dont brake hard, and take a lap to cool down

change to use synthetic ones, same goes for the gear box.. factory oil will break down at high temperature,resulted in reduced lubrication...

change your pad and brake fluid..

factory pad will decompose at high temperature and wrap your disc...

factory fluid will boil easily, resulted in losing brake power...

i suggest u don,t drive hard if u don t do the above

suggest u to use nulon for oil

you are on the edge already, i cannot find any mistake on 10-12 minute on the video...It was brilliant driving.... to get another few tenth is not easy, given that you push that hard already.. unless you do something else to the car or tyre. I guess
