check out top ten tyres in hoxton park road, they sell used tyres with about 90% - 80% tread, thats where im going for my set of tyres.

Did the panel filter make any sort of induction noise? I want to get that na induction sound with out spending alot of money on a cai as i dont want to spend money on mine! (yes the sound is for pure **** factor :D )

Will, right?

with the TRD panel filter, induction noise increased a little bit but not as much as proper piping and filters would have you.. its just a stop-gap solution before i decide to either install the TRD CAI i already have or go down the SRI path and order an Apexi Power Intake.. which im also hoping to pair with a custom heatshield.. (trying to source one at the moment)

and yeah, thanks heaps for the referral.. Being a 2002 model with very low KMs, the previous owner never changed or rotated the tyres at all.. so ill give these guys a visit very soon.. im hoping for the tyres to last another few months or so.. fingers crossed

cheers Nick, i cant wait aswell for the plans i have in mind to be in place.. but as the saying goes, better to take it one mod at a time

Hey there, the sunroof was fitted by the previous owner when they took delievery from Sydney City Toyota back in '02-'03.. it was fitted by the guys at City Sunroof Center, located at Enfield, if i recall.. coz i rang them about warranty and maintenance and also to see how much it costs to determine the value it adds, and for the price of the car it definitely adds value..

Problems you say? *knocks on wood* i've never had any issues at all.. just got to remember to have the keys in the ignition when you want to close the roof properly.. which means an extra few seconds/minutes to make sure it shuts

hope that helps

i rekon sunroofs add value to many cars especially if they are not common in that range of car...How much did they tell you it would cost to have one put in when you rang them?

[1rocky]

i paid two thousand to get a sunroof fitted Yuro car looking great :D :D

[¥uri]

yes, around $2000 or so.. sounds about right.. thanks rocky :)

[¥uri]

any suggestions or feedback for replacement factory tyres.. treads must be 195/60/55 i think..

so far, calling and driving around places im looking at the following makes (in no particular order)

Pirelli P6

Yokohama C.Drives

Dunlop [same as originals]

Goodyear

Bridgestone

[TRDYUS]

I would go with the Yoko's Yuro.

Good mix of tread and grip.

Car's coming along nicely.

[Kenneth.]

Have you looked into the Michelin Energy XM1+?

I have these on the Camry and they are pretty good tires. I'm looking at getting these for the Corolla too when it's tires are due for changing. ATM, the Corolla's off to the panel beater :(

cheers YUSman!

but yeah, the Yoko's are exactly that.. saw one today, tread pattern sets them apart from the others but so do the cost.. we'll see

thanks for the referral KT668, i appreciate it!

but no i haven't seen any Michelins whats so ever.. i have heard and read good things about them but as they would, expensive tyres get better coverage

btw why is your car at a panel beater ?

Sorry, such a LATE reply, but the car is at the panel beater because a tree fell on my car the other day @ Burwood.. almost died.

It SHOULD be back on the road at the end of this week.. if not next week.
