Personally I wouldn't bother buying a DSLR unless you're going professional with it. Getting your lighting and exposure right is far more important than the type of camera or lens you have in most cases, unless of course you're going for that slight edge compared to the happy snaps. If you're serious in photography, then by all means get one...but if you're not you're just wasting money on functions that you'll never be using. My missus is a professional photographer in Perth and has won numerous photography competition overseas, and her opinion of that is don't get into the trend of having a huge f-off camera and lens thinking you'll be a master over night. If you're serious about it, take a look at the Canon EOS 5D Mark II. 21.1MP with embedded full frame CMOS sensor and various (many) other functions entry ones like 1000D or 450D don't offer. Have a think ;)

I saw door and got excited, little did I realise it was fibreglass and it's see through. Can't install that as the front door of the brothel I'm opening then...!

Thanks guys. I'll call around to find out I think. Although, most likely than not I'll just get a replacement key from Toyota instead. Eeeeeeeeeeeep!

Hi guys and girls, long time since I've posted. Silly father of mine misplaced one of the keys to our ZRE152 Corolla Sedan. I know approximately how much it'll cost to replace one, but does anyone know of any alternatives? i.e. buying the key on ebay and then have Toyota cut and program it? Or if anyone in Perth can get a better price because they work at Toyota? Much appreciated. I don't feel like forking out $400 odd to get another one. Cheers, Jason

I'm also curious and excited, what ECU did you use? That alone would've set you back a bit...!

I hate Asians, especially SuperDave.

I can tell you now that is not the case. The liklihood of them having a high resolution picture of you driving is as high as a picture of pigs flying. The act of handing in another persons driver's license to pay a fine happens on a daily basis in WA and them boys in blue probably do know but can't do anything about it.

Cheers for the prompt reply :)

Hi guys, My dear old lady recently bought a brand new toyota aurion touring series SE automatic, and it seems to be a lovely car with more than enough power for the mother who is ending closer to 60 to kick out of. Well anyway, I've taken it for a drive a few times and have noticed this clicking sound. Let me elaborate... This only happens on cold starts. When I reverse out of my drive way I straighten up when I get on the road, shift it to drive and drive off like nomal. accelerating only slightly as the car is still warming up. EVERY time after driving forward for about 5 seconds, there is quite a sharp 'click' (which almost sounds like central locking your car) that happens. I wasn't so sure what it was, and I thought there might be something wrong with the brake pads settling in a new car. I took it back to Toyota and brought the issue up, left it there over night for the 1000km service, and they said it's the ABS activating. Is this true? I have no knowledge on how the ABS unit works, but from my previous 2 cars which have had ABS, I've never encountered such a problem. Sorry for the lack of detail and explanation, but I'm at work right now. If you guys need me to clarify anything please let me know, and I'd value any responses. Cheers, Jase

Please wait a few seconds for Video to Load! A little clip was given to me, had a good little laugh!

Condoms. And I'm not joking either, you have no idea how big aids/stds is in a third world countries.

Comon guys, if you can afford modding your car you can definitely afford a couple of dollars or ten to give to a good cause. Not everyone in this world are as fortunate as us, think about it. Bumpity bump.

you can definitely repair that, no need to replace.

Sadly, I am one of these unfortunate children and I know how much you all want to donate some sort of moola to my bank account. In all seriousness though, I'm all for this. Last time (I wasn't in Perth) I was told of the huge successful turn out. Alas, I won't be in Perth for this Christmas but I intend to donate just to contribute to such an event. Jeremy & Ken, as always I'm willing to help out in whatever means required. Feel free to bug me boys.

For anyone who experiences this, go to the ACCC and ask them to act on your behalf. This directly relates to the Trade Practices Act 1974, Section 52. 'Misleading and Deceptive Conduct'

Should really have done a little research before going ahead with it, as people in this forum have tried and failed with getting parts from any place other than Japan. To put it simply, the hatch and sedan in Australia and the Auris (Japan) run on the same chassis, aka E15 (ZRE152), hence why the C-One Struts would work on our Corollas. It wouldn't make sense nor would it be cost effective to have the same car model in Australia running on different platforms. From my understanding, the E14 (ZRE142) is utilised in Asia, Europe (I think this was mentioned by SuperDave) and America. Before buying things, I'd suggest you ask around first. Just so you know, the TWM Short Shifter made for the 2009 Corolla in America also does not fit the Corollas over here. Your best bet is getting something either locally made or imported directly from Japan (i.e. C-One for various things, HKS for their Compact C Coilovers, Teins [apparently they have one for the Auris], Dixcel for anything brakes and a few others I can't remember off the top of my head, otherwise the rest will be trial and error.

you can get a set of HKS hipermax C-Compact for around $1500 if you shop around. also, to those interested... http://www.trc-tuning.com/_products/_toyot..._compressor.pdf S/C? At the price of approx $16,000, I'm sure you can do something custom for a much better result...but just letting you guys know...its out there.

I was the big fish he caught ;) In all seriousness though, we need organise some sort of recreational activity for WA. I'd love to go fishing, I used to go down to mandurah for whitings all the time, but the coast has dried up a little the last few years. A friend of mine drives up north for an hour or 2 every so often and catches quite biggies. Anyone know of any destinations. Me <3 Fish.

i've had a cop swear at me before. next time ask them "excuse me officer, can I have your id number please. i don't appreciate the tone of voice and language you're using towards me, and if you truly believe i did something wrong then by all means fine me." they usually ***** themselves and realise they've stepped out of line and revert to the 'oh so nice' tone. don't let the power get to their heads.

Only Italians and Greeks leave protective plastic on longer, and that's just on their sofas..... You're forgetting Asians :P

Me too. Those dirty scousers deserve to lose every game. I love you micky.

Don't know about them, but thought I'd give you guys a nudge before going ahead. I'm planning on going to get seat covers with these guys, looks pretty genuine. They also have sales on ebay with 100% feedback. http://www.ultimateautotrim.com My question is, for $600 front and back + other numerous things I may/may not go for, do you think it's worth it? Some of their work... They are based in Melbourne somewhere, have you guys heard of them? I believe (from what I'd read online) they're quite a reputable company with good products. Cheers, Jase

Should really try to google these things. Took me 1 minute. Front Low: KTFL-119 Rear Low: KTRL-120 http://www.kingsprings.com/catalogue/kings...r_catalogue.pdf
