  1. Well, if you looked at the original thread that you created, you would see that there are a set available. There is no need to create two threads on the same topic.
  2. Try your best to avoid using consumable methods of cooling(methanol, waterspray and nitrous to some degree), as it will prevent the chance of user error, e.g. not re-filling reservoirs, wrong mixture etc.
  3. Could have damaged a LOT of the internal engine components(pistons, conrods, rings and valves), I would suggest taking it to a mechanic as soon as possible.
  4. When I first saw it, I thought it was a Commodore.
  5. If he does attempt it, I wish him all the luck.
  6. The safe bet is to run a standard airbox which has been designed by engineers and is generally very good at the task.
  7. Everything will be custom and the driveshafts may not be able to be lined up. Physical size may fit. The 1MZ-FE engine is a more reliable, stronger engine and power can be made.
  8. Actually unfortunately the overzealous laws for these late model cars go even worse than that. Not only does the filter have to be secure, but it needs to be enclosed and the induction sound levels cannot increase over stock. Which pretty much means we are stuffed as every single aftermarket intake for the ZRE fails on at least one of those three criteria. The only thing we can really do that won't risk a defect notice is to change the panel filter to something like an Apexi or Blitz whilst retaining all the other stock intake components. In QLD, it does not have to be enclosed, it may be required, the other things do apply though. See link below, click on Minor Modifications publication (PDF, 1.31 MB), reference air filters: http://www.tmr.qld.gov.au/Safety/Vehicle-standards-and-modifications/Vehicle-modifications/Light-vehicle-modifications.aspx
  9. There is a jacking point just in front of where the headers come down. Looks like a raised dimple.
  10. Decent figure. No BOV? They really should have strapped it tighter from the start!
  11. They will fit from 1993 to current model Camry and Aurion.
  12. Toyota Long Life OEM, or Nulon Red Long Life.
  13. I will add there have been a few TRDs dropping bottom ends lately. Just be very cautious.
  14. You may or may not gain any performance or response gains. It will vary greatly depending on the vehicle and the OEM airbox/filter design. Just remember in QLD that it needs to be secured by a bracket in order be classed as a legal modification.
  15. For $400-$700, the value is not there, you really only gain noise and looks. The stock airbox is just as good in most cases.
  16. All good, we had a guy try it a while back. Welcome.
  17. Spoken like a true salesman, although you forgot all your contact details.
  18. Toyota run in the middle of the scale on the temp gauge.
  19. Try uploading a video, it may help with diagnosis.
  20. Well, you're talking it and walking it, which is very rare in the Aurion game. I am keen to seen how this progresses as it might inspire a few others. Any details on the setup?
