Hello TOCAU peeps,

IT'S TIME

To discuss plans for next years annual meet

I'll keep it short and sweet

OPTION 1 - Toyota Nationals

http://www.toyota-nationals.org.au/

Everyone will have to drive to Dubbo. Myself and one other NSW member will arrange the accommodation for all

OPTION 2 - TOCAU Annual Meet in Brissy

This would be upto to our fellow QLD peeps to organise.

This is just a discussion on where the even will be held next year. Once decided, I'll open up an new thread to work out particulars :)

Peace out

Where's the "Both" option? :P

The traditional accommodation for Nationals is the Matilda Motor Inn, they reserve large chunks of the motel for Nationals entrants (if you ring up and try and book as an ordinary tourist they will say that they are full) plus provide security in the carpark as well as extra parking for the trailer queens. This tends to book out quite early though (a lot of people book a year in advance), so if we want to stay in a big group I suggest either getting in to the Matilda early or finding somewhere else.

I'm up for either, hopefully I'll have my Caldina by they (yes you can all hate now I'm getting a Caldina).

Whenever I see a post of ur car Ken all I think of is Kermit the frog singing "it's not easy being green" :P

Do it,

I might finally get around to entering this year too, depending on the state of the cars. Been meaning to for a few years now...

Hi to everyone!

I'm new to the clan, slowly spreading my computer wings. I was following the discussion about the location of the 2014 meet. I can't offer much constructive advice as I have never attended the Dubbo meet, therefore I can't compare or comment. I am one of the organisers of the All Japanese Classic Day in February and the All Japanese Day in June, which are annual events held in Brisbane. Our June event attracts about 600 japanese vehicles, with the numbers increasing each year. It is held on the Queens Birthday long weekend of June (08/06/14). We would be more than happy for our event to be included as part of the 2014 Nationals, should this be of benefit to you. I do know that a Show & Shine is always held somewhere so where better than the beautiful surrounds of the Earnshaw State College? Anyway, just a thought and something to throw into the consideration pile!

Cheers

Allan

Me too not entirely sure if this will go ahead, organising an annual meet is not something I've done before, if someone more senior and knowledgeable than I would like to organise it and need my help more than happy :)

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      I did the mathematics myself regarding costs vs benefits for fuel injector cleaner. I have changed from 91ULP to 95PULP and 98PULP. Price difference can be about 13 -20 cents. Compared to 91ULP, Premium quality fuel should have a better quality additive package designed to have superior engine cleaning capabilities so the engine can perform at their best.

      "Fuel injector cleaner is a waste of money" Only if you by the cheap crap if you use LiquMolly a German Product it does work and you won't waste your Money.

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Generally, yes. In the 60s, and earlier, there were cars with positive grounds, so I'm always a bit hesitant to say the negative wire. It is always the one that bolts to the body. Herb

      2011 Land Cruiser 1VD-FTV Engine Won't Start After Overhaul

      Hi everyone, I have a 2011 Land Cruiser VDJ200 with a 1VD-FTV engine. I recently had the engine fully overhauled due to a blown head gasket. However, after the overhaul, the engine is not starting. It only cranks but doesn't fire. I've checked the following DTC codes: Internal memory EEPROM error Low rail pressure The actual rail pressure data shows: 240 bar during cranking 61 bar when ignition is off Based on these findings, I suspect the following potential causes: =Defective Diesel High-Pressure Pump =Leaking Piezoelectric Injectors =Diesel Fuel Bypassing to the DPF Circuit =Faulty Injector Drivers I'm hoping for some expert advice to help diagnose and resolve this problem I'm seeking expert advice on how to troubleshoot and resolve this issue. Any suggestions or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
