airbags

*drools at the idea of airbags* biggest issue there is cost haha

Roll your guards? or if its hitting the inner side of your wheel arch add spacers?

If you get coilovers you can run your car a touch lower and actually scrape less even with a full car load :)

Not hitting the arch itself, just the inner carpet right on the edge of the arch ( bout 10mm off the body panel )

And scrape less after lowing it, how the hell does that work haha ?

Yea down side is THERE BRAND NEW >_< paid just over 1k for them, and they are the correct tyre size for the car against the original ( so not to throw the odemeter out as last set did )

Im keen for what offers me the best results... yes i know that string is the answer but yea have no idea where to begin haha Price isnt an issue as i can save up my pennys to get it sorted.

I love the idea of a lowerd car but hate the problems with being lowered.... what do i look at going for those reasons (trying to avoid airbag suspension as that REALLY cost some dosh)

Before you start yes ive read posts but mines a unique question...

What would you "Coilover Club" lads and other suspension modifiers suggest for my ATX (stock suspension atm)

I have issue's with 3+ people (adults) in the car, the tyres rub on the inside of the wheel arch on the carpet lining when i go over hard bumps and also turn corners (loud scraping noise that makes me cringe :( ).

Tyre & Wheel size atm is;

- 18x8 B.BOSS Wheels

- Falkener 245/45ZR18 100W Tyres

- Do i need to camber the wheels ? ( hope i don't have too... )

- Do i go coilovers or just get harder shocks/springs in general?

- Dad suggested air shocks to adjust the pressure, whats the go there ?

I don't know where to begin and don't want to goto pedders as me being clueless at this stage, they will just rip me off....

This thread went off topic since i last read it hahaha, love the essay adamsy haha <3

Need people like you for president of australia

Now you mention that im concerned!

Any note as to if the Aurions where "Race Car" or just used by nana/grandad ?

What year / Model etc ?

Looks sweet....

Im in need to change my setup atm, after getting the now CORRECT tyres to suit my rims/car specs i now with 3 people or more, scrape going round corners and solid bumps in the road ( 09 ATX standard suspension )

Need to go harder at same high and possibly cambed adjustments as its hitting the carpeted inner arch :(

Looks sweet tho nice work !

I like the look of this one - http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=400216306557

Considering buying it - i'll see how my budget looks over next few days :)

Or just buy the new Atara or Sportivo lol.

too slow only a four cylinder

New Atara hits the tonne in around 8.5seconds now with Aurion around 6.7-6.8

Still too slow haha ^_^

I doo like the idea of paddle shifts tho good for drag racing other cars on the highway haha :D

Just wish i was decent at doing some of the LED mods as i would have the entire car done by now :(

DJKOR, i use the FAQ frequently but have considered asking if either me or even you could update with with a few more things regards to speakers / Fuel or anything thats missing that is commonly asked!

FAQ is the best thing going in the Aurion Forum just needs to be updated me thinks, Your thoughts ?

Hold off for now ill report more info when George gets back to me he said he needs to contact the Engineer of the headunit :)

Yes it does display name and number.

When you sync contacts it actually puts your contact list in the headuint aswell as recent/missed call list.

Yea im super happy with the ATX just the finishing touch to the TRD is superb....

Whats the chances of a new release ever coming about for TRD aurion as i know in the states its still quite a big thing....!

Makes me want to sell my 09 ATX and get one >_<

So jelous :(

love the seats tho :D

+ love the idea moving away from the apprentices thay can do a good job SOMETIMES....but im unsure on what oil to use :P

No worries, George is assiting me greatly with my issues atm.

For those that want to gain extra access to hidden settings this is how to do it.

1. Goto Blutooth
   
2. Dial - #0*1*2*3#
   
3. Hit the Red End Call button
   
4. The Hidden menu should come up ( allows you to change the startup logo to others Holden Subaru etc for ****s n giggles) and a few other fan settings and software input/outputs!
   

Bought one 2 weeks ago and is now fitted...

Answers to your questions.

1. During the day it is good if on full brightness, could be angled towards the floor in its design to provide a better picture. (night time is 100% fine :D )
   
2. It dims it perfectly! About the same as your dash display set to the brightest setting when it is dimmed ( not to the locked illimation setting )
   
3. I found it functional-ish...
   - iPod's shuffling dosen't work as well as i had hoped, it selects the next song in the list before it shuffles to a new one ( sounds like its skipping but is tempermental issue )
   - Brightness setting when adjusted (for me to 5 ) dosen't stay set ( wanted mine brighter but every time you turn it off and back on even when car is running it resets to default of 3 )
   - Background transperancy dosen't stay set as i wanted it ( more transparent ) same issue as the brightness, it keeps resetting, but i have just before, contacted George (easydeals) and requested assistance.
   - Had issue's attaching my old JVC AMP, not sure if its the AMP or headunit ( my money is on headunit outputs )
   - Touchscreen is good but the button layout to touch isn't very well thought out but is functional enough.
   
4. - Fits the dash good, little tight but that may be just my car ( stipped it back one to many times :P ) / no gaps
   - Looks really good !
   Personal opinion, if your scarce for money get this unit as it is sufficent for every day use, but if you can afford to I would recomend going for a propper headunit like Pioneer / JVC / Alpine etc with a facia to suit (ebay)
   If your in perth, let me know as i can show you.
   

Switch is dead ?

Goto wreckers obtain the matching panel for your model and try it out, might work or find someone to borrow from as a test :)

Pretty much what VF-X Said :) all the main components are the same ( chassis engine etc )

As per DJKOR's FAQ thread, i thought i would create the torrent containing the service manuals for the Aurion (AKA Toyota Camry 07-09 Models) for members to download.

You can obtain them indavidualy from the FAQ thread link here - https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B-a6Tk-Li8MWNzQxYTZhZDgtMDc0MS00NDM1LWI0NGUtMDY4ZmRiODRmZDgw&hl=en_GB

Or

Download the .ZIP containing the torrent to all of the manuals from here - Camry_Aurion_Manuals.zip.zip

You need a Bit torrent client to download the manuals, try UTorrent

I will leave it seeding as much as i can over the coming weeks/months :)

I haven't attempted the RSB yet, but earlyer posts suggeest easy installation after jacking and placing the car on stands.

Go to page 1 and read on from there its a good insight into what you need to do :)

Also refer to the image at the top of this page, thanks to DJKOR.

Average is 20,000 you say O_o

I did 41,000 last year <---- Fail :(

Lol, thats why i upgraded my usage had the same issue...

Now on 100GB off peak and 100GB on peak :D ( peak i use completely by the end of the month! )

Those fog light covers are similer styling to the Holden Club Sport Range....

Hahaha, sounds like toyota up to old tricks trying to skim more money from the customer...

I had same thing when they skimmed my rotors ( all 4 )

They told me it was around $80.... When i got the car back they told me it was $230, I said that bloke there told me it was only $80, in the end thats all i paid haha

Lowering would improve it slightly as the centre of gravity is closer to the ground, but if you don't like lowering you have a couple other options avaliable to you...

1. New, wider tyres with better grip.
   
2. Strut and sway bars - http://www.ultraraci...p2_articleid=28 ( i did this and it was a very good improvement )
   

But do check your tread on the tyres up front and make sure there on legal standards
