~Aussie accent on~ Gooday mate! Throw a shrimp on the Barbie for me will ya. ~Aussie accent off~ :grin:

You could start of by heading out to WhiteLine and get yourself a rear and front sway bar from them. http://www.whiteline.com.au. There's a group buy going on right now ( http://www.toyotanation.com/viewtopic.php?topic=4496&amp;forum=1&amp;10 )

BTW- for those that don't know, Aussies call the trunk a boot :razz:

There's a few Aussie over at http://www.CamryMan.com

Get HIDs, that'll solve your lighting problems. Kinda expensive though $500USD.

Depending on your budget, you should really try and upgrade the stock springs and struts first. Not only will the car handle much better, but your rims will look better when the car is lowered as well.

What is unichip engine management upgrade :???:

[::a::j::a::i::]

Unichip is like an add-on system to the standard ECU to improve the car's efficiency and output..!! :grin:

the link :

yea there are so many lowered and modded rides here in sydney esp near my area because i live near my uni.....(anything from c-class mercs to r34 GTRS!!!) ...and a lowered gen4 will look GREAT (just like the one MadisonCamry98 has !!!! )

but unless u have driven on aussie roads b4... u won't believe how poorly maintained they are! with the stock suspension, the ride of my car is still very bumpy... i can't bear to imagine how it will be if i had stiffer springs and the lot.!!!! :sad:
