I have just worked out my best Sprotivo mod. It's my 4 cylinder auto Camry.

Why ?

Cause it goes to the shops and gets the scratches, it gets the pizza's (and the lingering smells), it keeps the wife and kids out of the Sportivo, it goes on dirt roads to mountain bike races.

But best of all when I feel the Sportivo needs more power and handles like cr*p and needs a heap spent on mods I drive the Camry and then I get back into the Sportivo and it feels great.

Presto no need to spend any money on the Sportivo :)

Just bought a Mazda SP23 for the 2nd car. It makes me appreciate my Stivo even more. Getting back in my car after the mazda dealership I suddenly realised just how fast it really is and just how good/solid the build quality is. I now know I luv my car :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Still the wife wanted it so I thought what the heck I might be able to use it to my advantage. "Honey.... seen as we got you the mazda for the 1st wedding anniversary, I would really like an LSD for my car" Hey you never know, it could work :D

Yeah the sp23, what a great little car :) i knew your wife would listen to those wise words i spoke at the last cruise  :P

Lucio - I knew we could convice her !

Yeah... thanks guys, I like you too. Go on a bl@@dy corolla cruise & what do they do... convince my wife to ditch the corolla sedan in favour of an SP23. :angry::angry:

I'll be coming around to collect $16,000 from each of you soon. Beware any dark corners, I might be waiting in one of them to collect :ph34r::ph34r: :o :o

If you really wanted to enhance the performance of your Sportivo then this is what you should be driving to the shops.

I would have convinced your wife to buy a Pug 206 GTI180. Just sat in one today for 6-8 hot laps around Wakefield and it is a well balanced car, no need for mods. Each to their own :)

I forgot you're a much bigger bloke than me...  :unsure:

ummm I'll go into hiding now  :ph34r:

Are you calling me fat :( ... I can't believe your calling me fat :o

Lucky for you you were able to develop 'LIFT' for the 1zzg. If it was not for this and it's contribution to all 1zzg corolla owners we might of had to go for a little drive. :D

Hey sport1vo do you know people... There's someone I may want them to have a visit with :ph34r:

Also I was the one convincing her to buy the Stivo :)

Thats alright mate, it'll make it easier for them. You can get them to work you over for me while your organising them to pay a visit IZZ-FE & Lucio. :blink::blink::blink:

Can you believe they still have not coughed up the extra $$$$ for the SP23 over the corolla. <_< Cmon guys I'm waiting :D :D :D

      overheated engine

      I drive a 2010 series 200 sahara V8 automatic. I recently towed a small caravan on a not that hotter day. The temperature gauge went to about half then dropped back to normal. The motor then went into limp mode and eventually stopped. On lifting the bonnet i noticed the top radiator tank had split all the way across. I have only two months ago had the complete cooling system checked with no defects. I called the RAA in South Aust and they tried to start it but just turned over but did not fire up. It was still pretty hot. I have been told the motor would be ruined by overheating. The car has been sitting at the repairers for 5 days now and as far as i know it has not been attempted to start. Before putting a new motor in it would it be worth putting a new radiator in it and see if it will fire up? Open to any suggestions at this stage.

      1996 Trueno XZ - Is it worth modding?

      Depends on how common/rare they are in your part of the world. The XZ trim was the second-lowest so didn't come with most of the fun bits that the full-fruit BZG/V/R models did, so it's not anywhere near as desirable stock but sometimes you have to make do with what you can find, plus you shouldn't feel as guilty modding the heck out of it since most of it isn't special.

      VSC, Traction Control, Check Engine lights all on

      I attended Toyota Preston for Aurion ATX 2013 major service today. Cost $~$1300. On the way home I stopped to pick up dinner. Two fault lights: engine and VSC lights came on when I restarted the car. Car drove home just fine. I can only return the car tomorrow for them to sort out. Annoyed. Let’s see if they’re still on in the morning.

      Hi everyone, new member to the group and owner driver of a nifty little Toyota Sprinter Trueno XZ, now this was my cousins car, I bought it off him and after various drives, I have come to the decision that this needs alot of love. Now I am wondering if its worth putting my time and money into doing this certain make n model up or should I just buy a different car to do up? I am not very car-inclined so I really don't know a lot. Any opinions would be very helpful Thankful!

      Android auto

      OK. Does any of Toyota's advertising material mention Android Auto? If so then kick up a stink, with Toyota management, about misrepresentation and false advertising, reminding them of the hefty fines. Herb
