i know a few guys who has done that and also put on the trd muffler (left side). other than that all i have seen on the roads is the sportivo but somehow makes me think of it as a boat.

Turn it upside down and hand me a paddle and it just might be!!!!!

But it does handle well in the wet also!!!!

I'll get pics of my skirt up soon (OEM Style) when I get the time to clean it well and take some good pickies!!!! There are quite a few of us with the skirt so some one may beat me to it in the mean time.

The OEM rear skirt is not actually meant to be fitted to the Sportivo as the exhaust blows straight onto it and actually melts the skirt. But due to demand, and the fact that some dealers just want to please the customer :), some modifications have been done by various dealers to allow this to happen ranging from adjusting the angle of the exhaust tip to divert air away from the bumper to cutting the skirt and extending the tip past the skirt to keep the hot air away. But I think it does add well to the over all look of the car IMHO... one pic in my garage shows the skirt from a distance with the tip the dealer added (due to melting) but like a I said I'll add some closer pics soon...

technically that is a diffuser not a bar... but anyway, looks OK i guess, not my cup of tea though, too angular, very eighties. Would look better on a boxy car then the sleek curves of the 'colla. My fav is still this one....

I wonder how that would look with the rest of the original sportivo kit?

The sides are the same as the current Sportivo ones so would flow on quite nicely I think, plus the rear hatch and bar are the same on the facelift (hence only a FACElift and not a REAR redesign) so should fit nicely too!!!

Mine was purchased and fitted through the Toyota dealer where I bought my car.

EDIT: By the way the pic I posted is not my car but what they fit to the RunX in Japan. There is much speculation at this stage that this is what the facelifted sportivo will look like (unsure about the rear skirt though, but with the redesign of the bottom contour I think it will work much better with the exhaust re. melting issues). We can only hope Toyota adds it as a standard feature. :D

To see a pic of my rear skirt visit the garage or gallery. For examples in other colours, see ZEEROLLA or KoroLa883 (Black) or Danthuyer (White) you can also search for Peekay34's old car (he posted a couple of pics) for a red version.... I'm trying to think of a silver one but am lost...

im not sure bout the price for just the rear but the whole bomex kit including front side n rear is approx. 1500 AUS excluding freight......the kit is located in japan.

one of the guys have spoken to jetspeed in QLD about getting the kit in n they said that they couldnt :blink::blink:

im sure if u looked around n asked in various body shops....such as DMD....Fabtech...Aresspeed n etc that they could possibly get it in for ya....providin u pay the dollars...

what i was thinking on doing was importing the whole kit from a mate who is a jap importer of all jap parts...be it performance or aesthetics.....

im fairly certain that importers of jap parts n s**t could get it infor ya!

but like i said...in my opinion still the tuffest looking rear for rolla's!! :D

wei wei

ps. here is the link to the jap bomex site showing pics of the front side n rear....enjoy !! (it also has prices for each but it is in jap dollars so u would need a currency converter to calculate into aus dollars)

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      I did the mathematics myself regarding costs vs benefits for fuel injector cleaner. I have changed from 91ULP to 95PULP and 98PULP. Price difference can be about 13 -20 cents. Compared to 91ULP, Premium quality fuel should have a better quality additive package designed to have superior engine cleaning capabilities so the engine can perform at their best.

      "Fuel injector cleaner is a waste of money" Only if you by the cheap crap if you use LiquMolly a German Product it does work and you won't waste your Money.
