Drove Northy's car the other night with the FC and the Cusco's and let me be the first to tell you that these 2 mods make the stivo absolutely friggen awesome. This thing now handles like a go cart!!!! I tested it on my "private test track" at my brothers house which is a steep windy hill that plateau's out then climbs again. The extra mid range torque and the handling ability allowed me to push it up the hill without effort and just hit 125km/hr by the top of the hill which is by far the fastest I've been able to do safely. The steering is direct and precise and wherever you point it, it goes!!!!

The only drama we encountered was on the way home with a crazy man and his even crazier wife in a Hyundai Elantra who tried to run us off the road :angry: and then accused us something utterly ridiculous(which we didn't do) :blink: and then thought he could catch us.(Now this was funny) :lol: ;)

Sorry to bust your bubble.. but if you think adjustable koni and springs can match a set of high quality coilovers.. and you think its not going to make a difference.. you need to get your facts straight and drive in a set of coilovers..

Felix and JSL are from the JDMST forums, they are die hard honda fans so nothing to worry about :P :D

Unless they are trying to keep up to us on a certain private mountain test track eh?

Line em up, watch em take themselves out :lol:

actually a quick question about your rear spoiler is that just the standard one with the C-one wing tips on it or is it a different rear spoiler all together

i was considering the c-one wing tips but then i might go something little different to everyone else not too sure yet

thats a REAL nice looking car by the way

      Vibration through body (not steering wheel) under acceleration

      Well, new tyres, a proper wheel balance seems to have done about 90% of the trick - the car now drives like it once did. The only thing is that a wheel bearing was called out as "completely stuffed" and as it is so bad, the only way to fix due to wear on the knuckle is to replace the whole thing. Quoted $600 for the repair and no parts for this until mid next week. Once this is replaced I will update if back to 100% or still more problems. I was thinking that the aftermarket CV shafts could be to blame - very glad this turned out not to be the case.

      New to Toyota - 2005 Corolla Sportivo!

      Long time no update. In all honesty, not an awful lot to update on. Life has been super busy and inbetween life, I get a chance here and there to clean the beast and also arrange for the usual 5000 km oil change. The car is showing it's age with more noticeable paint fade on the roof. After some time I've decided to order the parts to fix my slow power steering leak. After receiving the quote from Toyota, I was able to get the parts from overseas for not even a 1/3 of the cost it would've cost me to order here. The parts are due here in 2-3 weeks and I'm thinking of getting this done with the major service which will be due later this year at some point seenig as the car is quickly approaching 293000 kms this month. Other than that, I'm still enjoying driving the car and the money spent late last year was well worth it.

      Vibration through body (not steering wheel) under acceleration

      I've noticed the same issue after changing the front shocks from OEM to KYB - and while I don't think the shocks are to blame, it could be that there's been an issue which the old shocks covered up by not working at all after 230,000kms. I've also changed the CV joints in mine, replaced the front suspension bushings; hoping that a wheel alignment and new tyres helps this - will post back in the morning the result. Adam,
