New TTR: What's This and That?

Hey Guys,

We've recently just added a brand new Corolla TTR to the family. B)

Just have a few questions you guys can hopefully answer.

Firstly, what's the plug/socket under the dash next to the bonnet lever for? Is there suppose to be a cover for it?

Secondly, what's that thing (hard to describe) that pops out, to the right of the power mirror controls? It looks like a coin holder maybe?

Lastly (for now ;) ), how many grill variations were there for the Corolla pre-facelift?

Overall, I have yet do much in the car yet (only got it this morning), but initial impressions are that handling is much better than expected. Especially from it's stance. Can't wait to get passed the break-in period so that I can have more fun and utilise the cars potential! B)

Only few negatives is that the compartment on the very right of the dash is flimsy and there seemed to a be a little dint in one of the panel (maybe even before it was painted), but hopefully those should be fixed.

Oh yeah, one more question (hope I'm not getting annoying), I've noticed the Toyota accessories site is now down for the Corolla. Are there any other ones for genuine parts on the net (oversea sites maybe). The only thing I got were carpet mats. Just want to find out if there is anything else that was useful that I didn't know about.

Thanks in advance.

Hi there P’¢¡šT, welcome to the forum. How about doing a self introduction? :D

Are you located in Australia? Do we get TTR versions of the Corolla here?

Anyway, Don't know about the part that you are asking about in your first question. And for the second question, yes it's a coin holder, very limted though, I end up using my ashtray instead for coins. And there are many versions of the Corolla grill available. Aside from the ones from Toyota themselves, there are many different designs that I've seen in Singapore as well. Do a search on the Net for Corolla kits and you should see a few. Cheers dude.

The TTR edition of corolla, mr2 and celica is just some marketing hypein australia to sell more cars, If my memory serves me correctly, the TTR edition is just a ascent with color coded body , 15" alloy wheels and rear spoiler.

1) I have the plug socket thing that doesnt have a cover on as well... no idea what its for and I assume it isnt meant to be covered.

2) Yes, its a coin holder, try placing coins in there... it really works :lol:

3) There are many grill variations out there... they can be imported for singapore which has heaps of styles. Personally I am a fan of the official sportivo one mind... even though its really overpriced.

4) It depends what type of accessories your after... performance mods, exterior mods or what? The other guys around here should be able to help you with that one.

I have an 03 ascent, from what ive heard the TTR is pretty much the same as the ascent of levin.... I cant remember if the TTR has the sportivo bodykit on it though.

If you wanna check my car out go to www.cardomain.com/id/robsrolla :D

my friend has a genuine tmc japan coin and business card pocket. it sits inside the ash tray. it is moulded and has fine felt lining. nothing rattles.

Do you know anywhere that this might be available? ATM i just have coinage rolling around in the center console... which is a bit annoying trying to find it amongst everything else! lol

Thanks for your help guys. All my questions have been answered. B)

FYI, I am located in Melbourne, AU. The TTR is pretty much just a cosmetically enhanced Accent (ie. with alloys, spoiler, and various colour coding). Didn't have enough golden coins for hte Sportivo so this should do for now. ;)

Its the plastic thing near your mirror panel, mine keeps vibrating, the only vibration i get in the car. Comes in handy for two buck coins when cruising around St'Kilda.Love you Long Time!!!!!! :lol:  :lol:

The one srr is talking about is different. It holds pens and coins and replaces the ash tray. I saw a pic of it last time, but can't remember where it is now :P

      05 hiace ecu

      Hi all, new member needing some help with an issue that has me stumped, replacing ignition and had a short somehow. Van would not crank or obviously start, found blown fuse and replaced, now car cranks but won’t start, no check engine light when ignition is first turned on and scan tool will not communicate with ecu. All fuses good except fuse 26 on instrument panel fuse box has no power. almost convinced my ecu is cooked but before outlaying for a new one thought someone may either advise another possible cause or confirm ecu likely the issue, appreciate any advise or experience similar.

      1989 Hilux Low Voltage

      Hey all, recently got a 1989 Hilux with the petrol 22r engine. I had plugged a voltage meter into the 12v socket because I suspected an electrical problem as the battery light had been on. It had read 11.9 volts initially but the more I drive the more it deteriorates, currently sitting at 10.9 (after several hours of driving) when the engine is running. This obviously doesn't charge the battery and it can't start by itself. I have since replaced the battery and yesterday I did the alternator with a brand new one. I've checked all the grounds that I can see but it's still sitting at 10.9 volts and deteriorates over time. I was thinking the voltage regulator is the next best bet? I looked at it visually and it seems fine. Anyone got any other ideas? Note: I had a very long drive the other week and on one occasion the voltage spiked back up to 15+ volts for a short while before going back down to about 11.4 And yeah I'm trying not to drive it too much because I know it's probably damaging the battery being on such low voltage. Any help would be awesome thanks!

      FUEL WARNING MESSAGE

      Photo below showing remotely mounted relay for sup pump and switch to connect relay coil to earth when required. The earth connection for the switch was found using a test light in an empty relay socket just near where the relay is now mounted. You can trace the solid black wire. Btw, I soldered all the crimp connectors. I don't have a lot of faith in crimp connectors. Geoff

      No, I didn't see a fuel filter, but the inside of the tank was spotless. The pump wasn't running - blocked filter or not. Geoff

      Geoff, did you check the fuel filter that protects the transfer pump from blockages? Tony

      Wanting to build my car.

      I’ve brought my first car a while ago it’s a 2008 Toyota Aurion sportivo zr6 it has 215xxx kms I’ve been wanting to modify it as it is tidy but I’m unsure if I should since the car is this old and I have had to replace the oil cooler lines a month ago (my car dumped its oil on me) just unsure if they go good after a certain age. what I do want to do to it is. wheels lowering springs or coil overs stiffer sway bar exhaust tint all round after market head lights and tail lights (if any of you know decent ones could you shear a link as I’ve only been able to find some on eBay) if there is anything else that would make it look good like body kits if there are any would be nice to know. Thanks in advance IMG_0918.cr2

      2004 hzj79 surging/jolting

      Gday Ive got a problem with my 2004 hzj79 with 235,000kms with no turbo, ive takin it to a few places all have different answers. At 1400rpm just on light throttle it seems to be surging/jolting as if your on and off the accelerator. Ive recently had the head gasket, head, injectors, fuel filters and timming belt all done and is still happening after the works been done. Has anyone else had the same problem before or be able to point me in right direction? Cheers.
