  1. Am I too late to order one?
  2. Where are you located? Eventually my car will come out of warranty and if there were mechs nearby that know their way about toyotas, that would be brilliant.
  3. I have been comtemplating buying a 350Z for ages, but you can deny the practicality an aurion has. That was the biggest regret when I bought this car, was that perhaps I should have bought something sportier.
  4. My first car was a 93 Pulsar Ti 2.0, bought it off my old man in 2002 for 5k. I loved that car, a week after I completely pimped out the sound systemn it got written off by some drunk turning right and not watching the road. I still miss that car, I used to wash and polish it every week. I feel guilty sometimes because I dont treat my aurion anywhere near as well as I looked after the pulsar
  5. Sorry to bump an old topic, but since I have a bit of extra cash floating around I finally decided to do this. However I am not confident in my ability to install and I also lack anywhere to do it, since my car is parked on the street. Does anyone from Melbourne know a trust worthy place to have this installed?
  6. I see my car as nothing more than an A to B, in fact I havent even washed it since December - if it wasnt for the rain it would look really filthy lol. But I am always surprised and impressed by how smooth it is and how effortlessly it overtakes, it has lots of space and the handling is better than you think.
  7. I use the cruise control to keep within the speed limit on long drives. Car cruises far too smoothly at speeds way above 100km/h, too easy to sit at 120+ without realising it. But I have noticed the same thing as the others, while going down hill the car will engine brake to keep within the set speed.
  8. group buy?
  9. Yea it is quite easy to turn off by accident, before I got my reverse cam I had turned it off by accident and was backing up towards a mate's new VRX lancer. He was sitting in my car getting quite nervous cause I was getting pretty close, I assured him my sensors will warn me and not to worry. I realised later my sensors were off and I was actually very close to backing into his car lol.
  10. That sucks dude, hope it all gets fixed up properly. But at least you werent in the car at the time.
  11. I had this issue for about a week, and then it went back to normal. I ran the diagnostics and it showed the data it was receiving. It was a week when it was cloudy and I have noticed that it happens alot during those specific weather conditions.
  12. The foglights dont make much of a difference on dark country roads I have noticed, and mine have been upgrade to brighter bulbs. It still is hard to see, especially travelling at the 100kph speed limit most country roads have, only high beams make any difference.
  13. I had a 92 N14 Nissan Pulsar Ti with an SR20DE, great little car, was quite zippy. It was a hand me down from my dad, but it was in bad shape, scratches and dings everywhere. I repaired everything, so it looked like the day it rolled off the showroom floor, even got some SSS rims for it. 2 weeks after I put a new sound system in it, it was written off by a careless driver.
  14. The euro and DC5 tegs both run the K-series engine, and I know suspension was interchangable between the DC5 and the ES civics as they were produced at roughly the same time so I can understand the reasons for the similarities. But the aurion and camry run different engines, so no luck there.
  15. The little hole on the front of the head unit next to the right knob. A paperclip does the trick. Does not guarantee a fix though. Will also result in lost clock and radio settings. Thanks, its worth a shot though.
