KA24DETT: If we can prove that there is no improvement from OM dual exhaust to his quad exhaust setup now, we can say he is a ricer. Dyno run I mean.Power never feels old...I guess it's just going with da times...The long way home with no traffic or the winding roads on a cold Sunday morning....With 300 horses at my right foot, A pair of Raybans or Oakley's (if anyone still Diggs looking like James May)...that sir should be the long way home (except if you've got my wife as yours then you need to get home ASAP! I had the misconception that those lights provided a "wider" beam...well thanks Sienna for the insight. . |
mikkyphp: I just placed an order for 2pcs of White H11 7.5W Car LED Fog Lamp Light Bulbs for DRL & 2pcs of HB4 7.5W Car LED Fog Lamp Automobile Light Bulbs for the Full light.Those would surely improve the Camry ' s already poor lightning. They look nice sir.Do post pics of them when installed |
A Camry meet someday wouldn't be bad....
|
mikkyphp: This aint a camry thread anymore. OP please modify the title as appropriateIn as much as it is appropriately stated...plz sir mikkyphp let's give the slip on this one. His car has quad exhaust!!!..... ![]() And I think he would most probably be considering getting a Camry pretty soon. ![]() |
yungboss: lol, so are you saying we would not have family cars in production anymore?Most definitely, they would still be producing them.-can't say on how they'll look though The family sedans of the future would most definitely be Technologically laden...With emissions laws and crash safety requirements, you can bet they'll be nothing compared to anything we may envision.(no more 0-60 times, Instead we'll b looking at miles per Recharge (hybrids) and pretty much an android OS)...With a society that frowns upon anything with a combustible engine within! But the futuristic Nigeria is what you see in the present! ![]() |
yungboss: the insatiable thirst for power, I wonder what cars would be like by 2020...This sir is the future........ .ain't it a bright one!....say when the fossil fuel bunks out.Jeremy Clarkson foresaw it all.
|
grimadult: HmmmmmmmmmmmThe whole point of the Thread is to see how "different from stock" your car is.... Sad to say "Ricing" is still some sort of modification... Sir do post your cars picture and let evryone judge...who knows you may get CityNG to like it. ![]() |
Siena: You forgot a N/A V8 can be boosted too. Where would that leave the smaller I4 turbo?Dual turbochargers n 800hp with a blown crankcase n melted piston heads!...The quest for ultimate power on an I4T on twin garret turbochargers and running boost at 20psi.... Same power gain on a Ford Hemi V8 supercharged running say bout 11psi with little or no problems cos the block can handle it. Pretty much d days of a straight four are just about ended |
Now here's why I'm in Love with TRD...Just for Only this!
|
Hmmm a big displacement V8 against a tuned I4 with Turbo. Say how would a Cadillac CTS-V stack up against a similarly tuned EVO 10(Power wise No weight reduction done only engine mods) My guess is the EVO smokes the CTS-V on a launch but loses at the top end. ![]() |
Forced Induction is usually the route to go for big power gains... But accessing those parts and someone to put all in place without breaking the engine after a couple runs is a woe here in Nigeria.-if not laughable and near impossible A reasonable 280-300hp should be my goal. Your stage 1 regulars - Intake/Headers/Exhaust/ECU tuning primarily are accessible to me..Come September. Now Cams/Cylinder/Pistons/Bore increase n Polish (d 2.4L is enough though), Fuel Pump upgrades are well out of reach to me.-I am a DIY person but u can do all of this with a whole lot of Cash- which Is vert limited. In Nigeria, You won't get any tuning shops or ECU tuners/ReFlashers just road side mechanics n a whole lot of "Professionally recommended blow and break your engine Mechanics".. TRD's supercharger on the TRD camry edition made me nuts...Just da sound of dat V8 transplant made me go "Chai!!!" |
billy187: I don't really like the bland shape of the 07-08ish camry, especially with its weird 'nose.' However I can't help but gape at the modified camrys here, especially OP's and the lowered one as well. They look.......AWESOME! Good job people!Thank you sir... |
yungboss: so when I'm through with my m54 3.0 transplant, I should take on one of those your low ¼mile camrys....Let's pray the oil money reaches us some day...And we do have the intellect to build a proper drag strip in Nigeria!. Then the underdog - Japanese small weiner would take on the 7-0 beating Germans to a quarter mile!....I can already hum the theme song to that!.. "Eye of the tiger-Rocky" |
CityNG: A "Big For Nothing?" Camry that is actually "Big For Something" - eating BMWs. And I thought one was enough! ![]() |
CityNG: What a nice and simple car, very tastefully done on the exterior. No zowie graphics, no illogical led lights or other tacky stuff.Wish u knew how many times I'd lost to those -MW badges!!!......Even though the Camry does low 14's on da quarter mile n a respectable 6.4 to 60mph....I still get the whooping from an M badge ![]() This ultimately is my goal for my Camry...Increase boost all the way to infinite and Blow out any Bimmers!!! I catch on Kaduna-Abuja expressway! ![]()
|
mikkyphp: Am more interested in functional mods, and a few aesthetics. My BUcket list:Thats simple enough sir, Your 18's would probably make or break your car...here's a pic that'l help your choice sir.
|
"Shaking your head and taking the next turn home" Thats probably a reason why it's a Civic- |
But really a 2006 camry (big daddy- I am still fascinated as to how these names come about)doesn't dwell so good on the looks department... If ricing one up makes it any better than it is that I'd like to see...So please do as u feel fit to it - that's the whole point of it all....Make it unique/ different..What is cool/nice to you doesn't necessarily mean itl b for another. Criteria should be 1. Clean (show car quality) 2. Type of styling-Vippu (VIP), Street, or track 3. Parts used/ingenuity and Flow 4. Performance. Personally Lambo doors should remain on a Lamboghini n not on a toyota Solara.. (Ricing!!!) |
CityNG: I beg you in the name of automotive gods not to rice up your cool looking car. ![]() |
NEEBOY: Anyone has an idea of where I can get these for my camrySir, u could probably order it in on ebay or have someone abroad - states or in da UK to order it in for you. Or u could go the DIY route if you're pretty handy with your hands... YouTube should help with many videos on how to have a black house headlight and an led strip connected. |
tdie: https://www.nairaland.com/1326560/t-dies-2002-audi-a4-b6That sir is a tip on da hat and a removal of my agbada for you ....that's a mighty fine A4 b6 u gave both a life and one hella clean look...I'd be looking out for dat "next project" sir!!!..., |
CityNG: OP, additionally but I think you're looking at this hydraulic and coil over as one or the other.Hmmm....time to get me one of those!!!....Be sure I'll b having one on an e92 lime rock edition look alike...but then I'd like to know how it Starks up in terms of pricing? Thanks CityNG for such info sir...much appreciated |
CityNG: Instead of coil overs, hydraulics is the way to go for Nigerian roads.Yes sir,the practicality of raising and lowering ones ride height at the push of a button is comfortable. Some of our roads are just plain undrivable My opinion would still be the Coilovers over Hydraulics--Cost wise; adjustable damping, toe, and Height although done with the driver out ![]() And of course the handling is way better(from a performance standpoint though) |
tdie: Your ride sure looks cool... A black top- Glass, Vinyl or painted, and big rims can do wonders to the looks of a car!! Reminds me of my project...! I'm itching to do another, but ba kudi... :-)Yes sir!!!.....that's the problem I face also..I have a bucket list of mods that need to go on the car..money oh!-it's always Goin to be a hobby and besides the end product is to turn Heads Abi---Thief head go also dey turn!!! ![]() Please let's see that project oh...Any DIY sir is welcomed! |
Chuckdee: I am not sure how practical it would be to drop a camry this low for regular use on Nigerian roads though..Definitely not sir!...only very few places and the car would be confined to those areas... The condition of Naija roads in our major cities where cars like this are suppose to strive well at is just sad. |
mikkyphp: What about swapping the stock radio head unit for a DVD/SatNAV type. I intend to progress with that. see my before and after photos (Smoked the headlights slightly):Clean looking Camry sir, liked the slightly smoked headlights.... Interior wise I'd b wanting to go stock wise....I've got a dashboard mounted Garmin Navi system.. I saw a guy put in a google Tab on his with Internet Connectivity via cell phone. Here's the actual Camry I got my inspiration from...The Stance on this camry is crazy!!...it's wearing 245/30/20F n 265/30/20R Giovanni deep offset rims..but of course it's also using An adjustable Coilover on all 4's
|
yungboss: that's going to cost you alot of money...it's possible, even the 1987 Porsche can be had with approx. 7000miles,original. Saw one on eBay.Yeah that's going to be one very long hard years of saving....I guess a regular e92 coupe with look alike should do with a supercharger n an akrapovic exhaust with a vorsteiner bodykit... Don't we all wish we had Oil money!!!! |
Always wanted to lay my hands on one...say anyone here know if the bmw e92 m3 lime rock edition could be had in for just over 12 mil?...I saw an e92 copy look alike.with the front splitter n rear trunk lip.... Here's da car I'm referring to
|
ivoryhouse: Thats a great looking camry. Did you modify the engine?Thank you sir!. Not yet...but be sure come September it would be running a Takeda Cold Air Intake and a 2.5 inch Exhaust... Am looking to swap in an intake manifold of one of Toyota ' s TRD headers |
Yeah its a carbon fiber vinyl I had in with some of the stuffs I order ...thanks sir.glad u liked d pics. No "ricer" crap here..neon lights, crappy bodykit n cheap China knockoff stuff..Just keeping it simple... Don't want it being just a head Turner but at least da term "hey nice ride"... Most of it I did myself.and trust me...u won't believe it on how cheap it is doing it yourself after digging in n researching for da look one desires. |
Thanks Siena, here some more pics...
|
Am sorry about the m is - spelled words.it was sent from my phone...Thanks all

.ain't it a bright one!....say when the fossil fuel bunks out.
