  1. yepps ! still looking into turbo ;) Not sure about power gain, but theres more gforce compared to auto whilst accelerating The QFMs are awesome ! Still meaty ! But gets really really dirty + its noisy when not warm, Yep next big step is the turbo :] Thanks :D !

  3. Welcome ! for handling i suggest - Rear sway bar < Best bang for buck mod imo - front strut - coils - poly urethane bushes as for power, cant expect much besides forced induction (turbo/supercharger), otherwise the usual cold air intake, exhaust, headers = but dont expect much power gains from it
  4. After the track day, decided to have a play around with the foggies i got a while back, its not connected as of yet but ive mounted them on, Furthermore, found this at the auctions best thing about it is this: -yep its a manual, quest for manual conversion has begun ! in the mean time i started to salvage some of the parts off the sportivo starting with the tail lights -applied some vht nightshade masking out the indicators/reverse lights so i can see at night better from this: to this: I also took the seats out of the sportivo and replaced my stock ones -theyre sorta buckety and hugs you better than the altise ones that i had, lot softer too and i think it sits a bit lower During the week when i went over to a mates place to party some cheap basterd stole my lip spoiler <_< replaced it with the same one from eBay, looks a lot bigger than the old one. After that, i sent the camrys away for the conversion to be done: Three weeks later: i got it back with big smiles on my face :] With new clutch, machined flywheel, fresh fluids, belts replaced, water pump replaced, new filters & plugs, she's pretty much a fresh car This is how she stands as of today, Thats all for now ! new mods are to be followed after the manual, like an intake and exhaust etc. cant wait for the next winton day to see if i can drop the time with the manual box. Thanks for looking ! -jeff
  5. Hi all, been a while since last updated, here's what happened last since upgrades: Car got defected for height & HIDs during the Christmas period and there was a blitz going on, -so back to stock she went and raised the car up to legal limit taking advantage of the raised height, decided to go try out the Camry on the track along with some of the members in tocau. Tampered on January 28. Thus skipping the lip kit for now So preparations are a must ! Installed the Aurion Calipers along with an upgrade of dimpled/slotted rotors, complimented with some QFM A1RM Pads, aslo diy mounted the fire extinguisher. Didnt take pics or vids during the track day, but here some photos i found, and some rolling shots by another member. The day was really hot at 38degrees, street tyres didnt really do it as it got hot really quickly and lost grip after a lap or two. did a total of 31 laps, 5 sessions around winton, also tried to break the 2min mark, but because of the auto box it didnt, but it was damn fun and exhilarating ! and dont have to worry about cops or anything. Lap times below ! 2:18.7560 2:04.3100 2:18.5090 2:25.3660 2:07.1580 2:10.6450 2:05.3170 2:04.6130 2:03.7220 2:09.8270 2:03.8260 2:06.0900 2:11.1600 2:04.2580 2:09.2650 2:17.2710 2:01.4630(pb) 2:03.5480 2:09.3920 2:01.5950 2:02.6030 2:24.3760 2:04.1980 2:31.7190 2:08.0730 2:05.1960 2:02.7880 Overall the track day experience was fun wonderful, along with mates who were on the track with us made it feel more secure and have peace of mind that no one will run into you.
