  1. In response to the previous post....

    Um, I've seen my fair share of lame a** jokes, and well... I'm lost for words on that one.

    It's not even lame enough to be funny. It's just, lame...

    Cant call it lame either Ultra lame or EPIC Fail times 10..

  2. Yes Xoom i was going to go all out on a quick N/A and have it ready for a turbocharged kit, and just smack it on but if i was to turbo it, i'd want to see one first and im hoping you attend the meet at bunnings this saturday so i can see your car and you can show me how good it goes :D

    But it would be epic fail with so much power through the front wheels wouldn't it huh.

    :lol: :lol: :lol:

    Yeah you are right would be alot of wheel spin. But because of the traction on the aurion it causes it to bounce, and lol manual owns auto!

    As i said dont take it as i was dissing your aurion like i said i have owned one and if it was a daily driver i'd chose it over a sportivo anyday.

    But i will admit cat got my tongue!

  4. buy a spare engine, have that fitted with new oil pump gears, valves, springs and cams. Then you dont have to molester your original engine or have the car off the road for more than a day or two.

    Fit the new engine with HD clutch and light flywheel if you want, fit your choice of ECU and get the setup tuned to take full advantage of the mods.

    If you want the 2zz to last at sustained high rpm then valves/springs and oil pump gears are a good idea.

    Be prepared to spend the best part of $10K on a NA 2zz setup for minimal gain.

    I think you just made me decide 10k on a NA, ill wait to get my full license cheers guys :D thnks for ur help

  5. Well my mods so far, are CAI/Exhaust Headers, i was going to get a powerFC. before installing the FC i was going to make sure i had cams and bigger injectors to install but i was reading some info on DD Performance Research, They reccomened when doing this a lightened flywheel and upgrading valve and springs upgrade.

    Just a bit confused but use are helping me go along with itt!!! cheers guyss.

  6. Okay, Maybe this has been covered before not to sure but im after personal opinion's and people's experience in this kind of stuff because i have no experience or knowledge what so ever when it comes to this.

    I might be heading towards a power fc getting the harness off SD etc.

    But whats troubling me, is where should i go on from there. should i move on to the valves/springs or just upgrade the fuel pump injectors and cam gears? Some idea's to get me started to have a plan made up in my head because its very confusing just going from scratch without a plan!

    Also, All aftermarket, items such as lightened flywheels cam gears injectors are all needed to be bought from USA? and i kno its a such dumb question but cant get it right

    Or ill be allegable to gain my full license in december, and i should wait till then to do an upgrade :P

    Im willing to take all negative/positive opinions so no one hold back

  7. Nice Ride Mick,

    Quick Question with a basic turbo setup and few extras for exampe exhaust system headers, Front mount boosted, what do they usually run in a quarter mile.

    I had a go with one down the humehighway i thought he was going to leave me dead behind but my stivo ended up infront.

  8. Im talking general, thrashing wise, But when it comes to a daily driver, my mother owns a toyota aurion and hell i'd chose that over my sportivo or any car ive owned anyday its got the speed, and its just roomy and comfortable.
