Are the driveshats the same for the sportivo (zze123) and the regular corollas (zze122), cuz i'm having trouble sourcing a sportivo one from the wreckers.

my guess would be that they are, given that they are both 4 stud, suspension is the same etc

my only concern is that the the threads on the end of the shaft dont match up to the gearbox. Any Ideas?

or if any1 know where I can get s Sportivo driveshaft that would be better (dont say toyata cuz they will prob charge a fortune when they are pretty cheap second hand).

why can't you get your current shaft rebuilt? Only costs $150ish

$1400 are you serious, they are like $120 second hand, what a rip off.

I thought about getting it rebuild but dont wanna have my car out of commision. I just wanna take the shaft out on saturday morning and have it finished within an hour or two (need to refill trans fluid etc)

go and see some local driveshaft repair places, ones that use japanese parts to rebuild them instead of the chinese stuff. See if you can get an "advance exchange" shaft... Not likely they'll have one in stock, but you can try. Is it the drivers or passenger side shaft?

Its the drivers side. I couldn't find an exchange sportivo one, well any1 who knew the difference anyway. Maybe I should get a billet driveshaft from the USA, prob wont break then.

well the sportivo uses a half-shaft type CV on the drivers side, the normal ZZE122's use a full shaft. They're not directly interchangable.

the CV's will still wear with a billet driveshaft. You wont make enough torque with a 2ZZ to snap a standard shaft, so billet shafts are a waste of money.

The chinese replacement CV parts wear a lot faster than the japanese parts. My local driveshaft shop has a display case full of broken chinese parts.

The actual shaft should be the same seeing Celica and Corolla share front end suspension components. Part numbers should tell you.

You're unhelpful and unknowledgeable Toyota Spare parts department :P

that is so true, i went to one of the toyota parts department and quoting for the stivo side skirts on the 2006 model, they told me to come back with the part number i needed because they had too many corolla side skirts in the system...

"if i had the part number, i wouldn't be coming to you sunshine"

he's probably just too lazy to find out for me

ahh sweet I'm sure i can locate a celica one easier, thanks. Just wondering is your engine is a 1ZZ or 2ZZ. If 2ZZ is it out of a sportivo or celica.

Just thinking the teeth may be differnet at the end of the shaft, for the celica gearbox than the sportivo. Crap thats not what i wanted to hear i was hoping that they would be the smae thickness.

      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.

      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.
