:( Bummer, i used toyodiy so much, was really handy seeing how stuff went together and how to get to things.

How does Toyota USA have any say in the matter? Surely Toyota Japan should be the only company that can say whether you can use their diagrams?

Sounds ass about face, it was always the US that couldn't see it before.

Never used ToyoDIY, but sounds very similar to http://www.partsfan.com

Quickly tried it on my old RC and seemed to work pretty well.

EDIT: Only problem I seem to have is it seems to be showing european part numbers (obviously for the Infiniti M) but not too hard to cross reference, but not 100% on toyota stuff.

I used a Russian proxy to access ToyoDIY. Works like a charm, images and all.
Example Russian proxy list: http://www.proxynova.com/proxy-server-list/country-ru/

You can find a lot of proxys in web. For example: Proxy Server List - Russia Proxy - Russian Proxies

Use transparent proxys !

Have a nice day =)

BTW, if you find the EPC software needs specific version of windows and other random hardware specs you can use the likes of Virtual Box (https://www.virtualbox.org/) to create a virtual machine and emulate the required specs. You will need a copy of windows to install on it though.

Its a real shame ToyoDIY got stripped down, the parts listings are only half as useful without the images.
