Forum: AWD Magna / Verada

Hey all, I'm wondering what mods (if any) others have done for some cheap performance increases. What I'd like to know is are there any mods to the airbox or intake that can be done or even something as simple as an after market filter (K&N) or even pod filters? Any help would be great. Cheers

I have just fitted one of the Ralliart Momos to my VR-X and would like to know that all is not lost. My standard wheel, identical to the Momo except for the red accents and the Momo imprint, was perfectly straight when driving and the car tracks true (no wheel alignment issues) but the Momo is a...

Here's my dilemma...Been through a few posts and haven't yet found a definitive answer.... So, will 245 40 (or 45) 18's fit under an AWD? :hmm: I have the blokes at my tyre place telling me that 235 40 18's would be the best, but they are 19mm smaller OD than standard. I like the idea of the fat...

Hi, im new here so be nice. I have a 2005 VRX AWD. Fantastic vehicle. I use it for what it was made for and frequent dirt roads. To make life easier I was wondering if anyone made slightly taller springs for the AWD. I'm not after much, maybe an inch at most. Any feed back or ideas would be...

I'm buying a hiflow cat for my AWD rada next week. I know that there is an O2 sensor on the y pipe. but just needed to know if the stock cat has this aswell?. unfortunately getting under my car is a bit of a challenge and I can't get to the heat shield to remove it and see if there is one there as...

Hello all, My AWD has done 134,000kms and in the last week or so it has developed a rattling noise primarily when decelerating between 65km/h and 55km/h. It almost sounds like keys rattling or even chain rattling, I've checked for loose bolts/fallen bolts & fittings but all came up ok. Seems to be...

Hello, I'm in the process of preparing for a battery to boot install, as I need the space at the front to fit my modified factory CAI since fitting a 6G75. I have all the equipment and associated items but would like to hear from anyone who has this done on their AWD (mine's a TJ magna) as to...

Hello, i have a Problem with my Remote. When i try to close the Car comes 2 Signals from the Horn but the Car is still open. I have no idea whats wrong :tired:

Hi Folks. I currently have myself an 04 TL awd vrx and am wanting to remove the chrome gear selector surrond. How does it get removed without breaking the clips??

Anyone know the part numbers for Koni sport yellows and Boge dampers/inserts for AWD. Are they the same as the FWD? Are TJ AWD the same as TL/TW? Cheers, Alan

hey guys, wondering if anybody knows if its possible to convert a FWD into an AWD using a wrecked AWD? other than exhaust, driveline and fuel tank are there any other aspects im missing? even better, anybody know someone whos tried / done this ? thanks

Hey all, Having resisted the suv siren song and repaired our beloved tl... https://www.aussiemagna.com/forums/showthread.php?t=107492&page=2 I'm now thinking whether it is worth adjusting the ride height. But instead of lowering, i want to make it higher! The standard clearance is about...

Hi all, Travelled Brisbane-toowoomba yesterday for a Chrissy get together in our one-owner tl Awd. Was a steamy day but not exceptional early on. Noticed as we drove up the range that the temp gauge moved up from its usual just under halfway point, to about three quarters up. Watched it...

Hey all, Awd tl owner here. My one owner car has 182000 ks on it now, and I'm starting to experience a few minor issues as it ages. The car has always been serviced every six months, with bits replaced as soon as needed. It's general condition is good and it is garaged and well cared for...

First time poster long time reader. Can you still get the headers and join pipe for AWD magnas at all. I've been looking around without much luck so just wondering if can still get them. Any help greatly welcomed

I'm getting a set of mitsubishi 380 vrx 17 x 7 rims and I'm wondering if 235 50 r17 tyres will fit without any issues. I have searched and haven't come across a definitive answer. Any advice appreciated.

Hi there Thought I would ask here before taking it to workshop to find problem. Driving back from Brisbane couple of days ago, heard the fan belt slip then the aircon stopped working. All the controls still work, digital display says it's working but not cold air. There are no obvious noises,...

Hi guys I've got a TJ AWD which I was trying to sell recently but have had little interest or just lowball offers from people who think its just a normal fwd. So i'm tossing up the idea of using it as a cheap entry level track and hillclimb car, but still want to keep it street legal. Yes, I...

Hi guys, I've read on here about the front end suspension noise but the problem I have is the the creaking noise only happens during cold weather (which we get alot of in Canberra). Any ideas what could the issue is it bushes that a worn or struts. I would appreciate a bit of a steer on this...

Hi guys I know someone wrecking a TJ magna and i'm taking the AWD out on a track day in a couple of months. Would there be any issue throwing on a set of TJ executive rims on the AWD for the track day to help save my tyres! From what I understand the TJ's are 15's where the AWD is 16's so...
