Well I was just cruising along, and there was a weird burning smell then BANG! a loud bang, i thought it was just backfire, but now the car has alot more power and when it gets to like 80 its alot noiser as anyone who has this car would know, the engine is very quiet

I don't want to tell my parents yet till i know what it was, and if i tell them they wil probably think i was speeding or thrashing it

The next time your Mum takes the car out, offer to go with her. She'll think you're a good lad!

Then as she starts to accelerate, you already know what it'll do if it hits 80, so get the rubber mallet ready.

If she doesn't go over 70, wait for trip back home. And on the way home, get the rubber mallet ready.

Even if she only gets to 70, ya hit the door panel with the rubber mallet and she'll say, "What on earth was that?"

So you ask her to pull over. Lean under the car and tell her what you've learned from SAUer '116.hks' "I think it's the cat!"

She says, "Where's the cat - is it hurt?"

You say, "It's what is the cat - not where's the cat? Don't you know anything????"

...you know the rest!

...you're safe!

This is one very good sounding plan.

Another option it to hope they don't really care about the extra noise and enjoy the extra power

yerh that would be nice :D

so its not bad to keep driving the car?

The only option now is to kill your parents and burn their bodies in the car. It's harsh i know, but it's unfortunately the only plan.

Or you could spend a couple of hundred bucks at a mechanic to get them to replace the cat, but that's a stupid idea.

Show some respect for other people, especially your parents, and stop thrashing their car.

i wasnt thrashing it... i was behind a slow indian so its hard to thrash a car at 40 k/m

and thanks PM-R33 so it should only cost a few hundred?

lmao and burning the car isnt a option :D

go to your mum and tell her that something happened.. obviously a POS camry lol

tell her to take it to a mech for a diagnostic.. get her to ask the mech if thrashing caused the prob.. mech should be able to tell that you did/did not thrash the car

if you indeed didnt thrash it then you have nothing to worry about.. then tell her since you were driving the car at the time you are willing to chip in as she is such a lovely lady and the greatest mother in the world for allowing you to drive her car

if you try hide it and she finds out then she's gonna suspect you trashed it.. then she'll spank you

haha yerh i told her, and my dad thinks it was because i was thrashing it :(

but my friend who works at toyota as part time apprentice said camrys arent ment to be put on gas (mum brought it dual fuel as it was a ex government car so lots of highway kms) because the compression rate is too low

so i think that would have been the cause as the car is run on gas 99% of the time

thanks heaps for your help guys, yerh she will take it after new years cos she will be on holidays by then and il pull the nicest mother in the world line when the bill comes in ;) haha and then chip in

    • Incidentally, I also put v3 of the tune on the car and did an oil change from 5w20 to 5w40 to see how it affected oil pressure in the mid to high end. I'm still happier with the thicker oil and will stick with it, but clearly the system is happy with 55psi even if I'm not!
    • So the other thing I got sorted over the weekend was Z1 oil catch can install. https://www.z1motorsports.com/z1-products/z1-motorsports/z1-q50-q60-30t-baffled-oil-catch-can-kit-p-23546.html It was a good kit, most importantly it came with preformed silicone hoses in the right shapes rather than trying to bend/join regular straight rubber hose. It did come with crappy spring clamps not proper hose clamps so I ditched them On the down side, it is made for LHD cars and RHD cars have the main ECU harness running straight through that location, I ended up bending 2 mounting brackets so the loom is up against the brake master cylinder compartment wall to make room for it....otherwise everything fit without modification Intercoolers off on both sides, but there was enough room to get everything done without disconnecting (and therefore having to re-bleed) the coolant lines. Each is mounted with 4x 12mm headed bolts, plus in and out side hose clamps (7mm headed, nice) and 3 electrical connectors on the navigator's side which were a real pain to undo (probably for the first time in 13 years).   Also one of the mounting bolts on the driver's side was cross threaded, thanks Infiniti/Nissan workshop mechanics. On the navigator's side, the catch can plumbs into the factory hose that goes from the cam cover PCV back to the intake.  This is the 2 new hoses in place. All simples and direct fit On driver's side, there is a bracket provided that mounts to the throttle body, they even provide slightly longer bolts to allow for the bracket thickness which is nice (although, they don't have captive washers like the factory bolts of course) In that pic the main loom brackets are not in place, once I had "adjusted" them across it now sits up against the panel and just clears the OCC The remaining problem with this is emptying it; currently you have to remove the 3x m4 bolts that hold it to the bracket and both banjos to remove it (probably dropping the banjo washers at the same time) pull it apart to empty then replace. I do have some fittings coming for a remote drain from underneath that will also add a little capacity...it is very small and will need to be emptied every oil change to be sure.
    • Noise sounds to me could be either wheel bearing related (have had similar from bearings going) or that tail shaft is still loose. Or something like a heat shield touching the tail shaft.
    • You wouldn't get away with saying the opposite, if you were there.
    • Do some wool fluff testing on the vents
