Hey guys.. recently got a 2005 Conquest

I'm just wondering if the 'Toyota Genuine Sportivo Muffler' is worth it ?

I'm a noob so take it easy.. it goes for around $300..

n yes, I have done a search and couldnt find anything :P

cheers

hello hello! welcome to our forums! :lol::lol::lol:

i'd save that $300 towards rims! the muffler isn't going to really do much besides give a different note to your exhaust sound. not a major difference though, and not with it in my opinion! but then, im just a bum :rolleyes::lol::unsure: :D

have fun~

Perhaps I should take advantage of this post to introduce myself also.

I only joined this week but have been following these forums silently since I started looking at Sportivo's.

I've looked at a range of options and have finally decided to go with the Sportivo.

Got a newie ordered which I should be picking up next friday, nearly brought the black one they had in stock but decided against it. ended up going with white.

Anways thats my story, looking forward to some good times with the car and looking forward to meeting up with a few of you at some meets/cruises.

By the way, i'm in Canberra.

A big hello to everyone!

Woo Hoo a Canberra Boy... That'll be one more for our Wakefield Park days :D

We still have to have the mega meet in Canberra too people!!!  :angry:

For sure, Syd can drive down, Melb can drive up (and the other states are invited but driving from SA WA or QLD would be a rather big drive :D)

Yep,

If you see a white facelift Sportivo getting round there in the next few weeks thats most prob gunna be me. I havent seen any white Sportivo's in Canberra yet (only lived here since Jan).

Not sure about Wakefield, i'd come out for a look but not sure about punishing the car out on the track.

I hope I still have a Stivo by then, I "might" be getting a company car then it would be bye bye Stivo time

mmm.... ic3man... the last time i was talking to you.... (if you are who i think you are) obviously you weren't listening to what i was saying to you...

:D

oh well...

hope you realise that stock 1zz-fe exhaust and stock 2zz-ge exhaust have different dia.

even if you get the stock stivo muffler you'd have to get it modified to fit on the 1zz piping...

jus a quick little intro...

name's david

im 16 turning 17 in a few months.. still on my L's.. and live in sydney

this conquest we got is basically me and my mum's.. but i'll be driving it when i get my P's

as i said before i was thinking of the genuine toyota sportivo muffler, which goes for around 300.. and also comes with warranty..

but searching around, i see that the remus muffler isnt too bad either... just that it isnt too cost friendly

for my birthday my dad said he'll get me the muffler... but should i ask for the remus instead ??

Is that the genuine Sportivo muffler as far as the same as the one we have on our sportivo's or is that the Toyota Genuine Sportivo Muffler Accessory???

If it is the Accessory Sportivo muffler, then around the $300 sounds about right for the price from memory, but you won't need to worry about pipe size differences as the accessory Sportivo muffler was designed for the 1ZZ...

If the muffler you are referring to is the actual one that comes with the Sportivo, then yeah, as Pippy said, you'll need to get it modified to fit the piping...

Cheers

      2012 Hilux with snorkel stopped after getting stuck in water

      Hi guys, my sons 2012 Hilux (diesel) engine stopped when he got stuck in a deep mudhole last night. I had a quick look after driving for about 130km with a car trailer to get his car and it has been immersed in muddy water over the top of the battery. The water level on the inside of the car apparently reached top of seat height before they managed to snatch it out of the water. The car has a snorkel, however, the engine stopped whilst the hilux was still immersed in the water up to its bonnet. What would have caused the engine to stop? Typically what would one expect to need to clean out, replace etc in order to sort this?

      FUEL WARNING MESSAGE

      Definitely can't get the pump out through the hole in the floor. The top of the pump has a larger diameter than the hole. 2nd pump has arrived from the wrecker. I will be removing the tank and installing it today.

      FUEL WARNING MESSAGE

      Jeez that's unfortunate. Here's hoping the next one makes it to the right place. I've spent a long time looking, but I haven't seen any videos or images where that mechanism has come out through the inspection hole - I really hope I've just been looking in the wrong place! I've got my fingers crossed for you Geoff!!

      MWR Oil Pump

      Thanks for your response, I’m just hoping and praying that the oil pump will withstand the over-revving which is why I purchased the product. Also, I know very well about the flaws of the 2ZZ in regards to the oil pump and oil sump.

      MWR Oil Pump

      MWR are a reasonably respected name in the aftermarket 2ZZ business, they're not the cheapest (especially with shipping) but the products are usually solid. In this case though it is only the oil pump gear itself which is upgraded (as that was the issue with the stock ones), the housing is new/refurbed OEM Toyota/Aisin. FYI 4340 is the grade used, it's a high-tensile chrome-moly steel. I believe the stock ones are sintered (ie powdered steel pressed in to shape at high pressure/temperature), which contributes to their propensity to shattering (although I think it is much rarer than people are lead to believe, and usually as a result of over-revving via mis-shifting)

      Engine starts but won’t rev, only idles. 2002 Hilux 4d4

      I left my fridge on in car for five days and it completely ran the battery flat. I have replaced with new battery and engine starts but only idols cannot be revved at all. Any ideas?

      MWR Oil Pump

      My new Monkeywrench Racing Oil pump came in the mail last week ago, which had been shipped from RideRound.nl in the Netherlands. Does anyone know anything about Monkeywrench Racing? Do you all think I made a good choice buying this aftermarket oil pump? I ordered it to to upgrade from the stock OEM one which is vulnerable to disintegration. The aftermarket one is meant to be bulletproof because it is made from some type of so-called '4340 steel'.
