  1. Once the wings are on your next mod will have to be one of these:

    Then you'll have the only flying AND time-travelling box in Cairns! If you have the built-in sub on your left side in the boot you could install it on the opposite side and fit out the boot nicely!

  2. Thanks to everyone that came out last night.... also special thanks to couzellion for coming down all

    the way from carrum downs with your family...

    hopefully some new faces will show up at the next meet....

    Cheers, was a great stopover point for us on our way across Vic lol. And great food too! Damn I'm hungry now thinking about it...
  3. That VSC warning is a generic one that can mean a whole range of issues. It just gets you to come in and get Toyota to sort out what the real problem is. My last time was due to faulty wiring for one of the fog lights.


    Seems a bit drastic for the car to switch off stability control with that message, but it gets you back to Toyota quick smart I suppose...

  4. Hey Nathan, I see you have 5kg at the back. What wheel size and width are you on? And what are the coils set to? Im getting stiffer springs for my coils, just trying to work out 4.5kg/6kg or more... Do you have any issues with a carload of people as it sits?

    i have heard that you would need to get your shockies revalved to handle stiffer spring, not sure if this is correct but it is something to keep in mind :/

    OP is talking about coilovers, so no need (most have damper adjustment these days)

    so get stiffer springs and set dampness to soft??

    Essentially yes, currently I have 3KG rears and set on max stiffness which still isn't enough. So maybe with 6/8KG or thereabouts i'll be able do dial it down a little while still being able to increase at will if required.

    I've got 19x8.5 front and rear. Can't remember exactly how many clicks I have the dampers set to. Never had a problem with a carload of people. That's with a pretty heavy sub box in the back too. When I was getting the coils ordered in I was told 5 kg would be fine.

    Thanks Nathan, I've got 9.5 rears so 3KG just doesn't cut it. Work on the guards has helped a great deal but still cant have 2 adults in the back. Looks like I'll go for 8KG and dial down the dampers so at least I have room to move.

  6. Cheers Anthony, tried them already. They won't ship to AUS or answer
    questions on spring rates as there are Australian distributors for BC.
    Not very helpful, wouldn't even tell me who the other Aus distributors were...

    On a more positive note, JustJap got back to me with this:

    Hi mate
    We can order you whatever spring rate your after they $77 per spring.

    Now
    Im assuming that's 4 x $77 and he wasn't referring to $77 a set but at
    least I've got an answer! So $308 for stiffer springs, think I can live
    with that. Seems an ok price to me.
