Hey guys,

As you can see i am a long time listener/reader but first time poster !

I just thought i would post my car up and see if anyone has seen me around because i know I've seen nearly all you Stivo owners doing your thing cruising the streets.

I own a 2005 Corolla Sportivo, silver in colour, Number plate LFTOFF

In terms of Modifications they are as follows:

- Cold Air intake

- Headers fitted by Liverpool Exhaust

- Custom exhaust system with highflow cat fitted by Concord Customs with Audi Q7 S-line twin exhaust Tips

- Lowered on King Spring Superlows all round

- Eye Lids

- Black Stockies with red Calipers

- Exedy HD clutch

- Gearbox has an aftermarket LSD

Just though a few of you may have seen me around and just want to say a friendly G'day to you all.

This website has helped me with so much and has really made my Rolla lift off.

My car is attatched to this link below and the photos were taken buy Concord Customs in Silverwater, Sydney.

*Note that the crappy SRI in the picture has been replaced with a proper Cold Air intake.

* JUST SNAPPED GEARBOX HOUSING WITH LSD, ONLY AFTER A WEEK, DODGEY BOX, BEWARE SSS AUTOMOTIVE.

Let us know what you think !

Cheers

Car has a mean stance! looks good :), although not a fan of the engine cover lol.

Have you thought about getting spacers for a meaner stance? I think it would look awesome.

Thanks buddy, the engine cover was a bit of a flop due to the paint not sticking properly.

I never thought about wheel spacers actually, could be something to look into for a future mod to give it that extra edge !

Thanks alot, i tried to be as unique as i could with this car, hopefully it paid off.

The stock wheels are the best looking wheel for the car in my opinion, just made em black to give it that edge.

There are no future mods as of yet as i will be getting my full license within 2 months, might have to see the old girl go for an upgrade :(

      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

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      Android auto

      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.
