Impressive track work dude

1. I was sleeping like a baby and.. 2. I was so shattered when i found out you guys met up! Next time for sure mate!

I got a couple hundred bucks on me.. i'll sell myself and my car... and both my dogs. :)

If i think about the time just before i bought my 08' zre.. and what was going through my head. There was a plethora of cars of could of got instead of my corolla; at the time i wanted an S14 200SX Series 2. Money wasnt really an issue. I had just got off my Probationary licence to Full and could of driven a range of powerful vehicles if i wanted but chose not to. Plus i know myself, and a turbo car would be a quick way to losing my licence, getting fines, getting my car impounded or killing myself. Losing my licence wouldnt be feasible for work. I must admit in the beginning, for first few months wen i got the zre i thought it may have been a bad choice but i have to say i've been very happy with it. Its an economical cruiser. Its not meant for power, but who says we cant make it powerful? Got a big enough wallet? You can do anything you want. From my zre's humble beginnings to now, it has been a massive transformation from stock and i'm quite happy with wat i've done, though there still so much more to go. So im glad i got a 1.8ltr N/A corolla. Damn proud of it. Plus if i didnt get my zre, i wouldnt have met all of you guys.. with a bunch of us in melb hanging out almost on a weekly basis for washes, cruises and late night snacking. My two cents. Johnnie

I think those black rims on the facelift is 5zigen J-Speed. How do i know? Played need for speed for many years and those rims were the only ones i could afford early in the game. Lol

What a nice photo. Sometimes.. after washing my zre. I just stand back and appreciate.. ahhh :D

sorry to spoil.. just helped a member put those smoked taillights on just tonight.. very JDM look. Think i'll get them too. :D

the 5-spoke rims and pumpin music matches me.. and my car is grey.. maybe.. maybe not

Go the GREY ZRE's! I cant believe you guys get the TRD Suspension set as an option.. thats just *****. Where was that 2yrs ago!

hey private number, was it you the other nite driving behind me? on main road east st.albans? I thought it was you so i gunned it and left you.. if it was you.. lol

Im really digging those black zr headlights.. just like yours charlie.. its very aggressive looking.. Good work guys!

vrooom vrooom... gota love it! nice work

Looking good mate.. burnt titanium tip sounds nice!

Fahh.. that black zre is PHAT! with a capital PH! :D
