  1. Its ok, i've seen the ocnstruction on those thigns from the photos, when they burn out, no one will be able to repair them.
  2. Look what i found! its a really small super charger, and it apparantly uses an internal plantary gear system to up the internal rpm of the turbine, so this would equate to a lower sap on the bhp from the engine side. Supercharger Supercharged Civic if they managed to get it going good on that civic R, i'm sure the 2zz can put it to good use even with its higher revs. and before the noobs jump in about how much better a turbo would be over a supercharger, just bear in mind that to each their own. Superchargers give a different drivering experience to a turbo, and they're pros and cons for both.
  3. Hey is that you Grantham? Did you go to mhs?
  4. The celica ECU has an extra chip inside that the corolla one does not. Dude, i'm not cussing you but are u chinese? I can try post it in chinese if u need to
  5. Ask northy, but from what i hear, the celica has a secondary ecu but the corolla;s 2zz doesn't.
  6. In a word yes, but it depends on how much you pay for them. they are certainly not worth what you pay at Toyota for them. But if you manage to get them for the price of kings, I'd go them over kings. They do not lower at much as king lows, but they are more responsive and will age better. All lowering springs will eventually wear out ur shocks faster, but at least with the toyota ones, perhaps some kind of warantycan be negotiated.
  7. lets just scrap this thread no one is really going to win this memberhsip
  8. You don't need a custom one, anyold silicon joiner will be fine, super cheap or autobarn will sell what you need.
  9. For all who don't know that famous audi belongs to an oil sheik, the outer panels are actaully made of silver. *fact* And i don't even want to imagine how many demons they caught and bottled to run that engine. having said that i've emailed him my interest in his car and offered him my humble vw and a big box of tim tams in exchange =, i await his reply
  10. to date my friends, i have not found a car that comes stock with enough chrome and/or rice to my liking...
  11. Actually guys this is a dud car. VW have "tuned" the engine to give it an extra 22kw and 25 NM of torque. Using this same 1.8T engine, most after market chip tunes will jump the normal 110KW 210 Nm to 140-150 kw and 280-310 Nm for MAX 1800 AUD. 22425 euros is about 37 ks AUD. Add your on roads and your're close to 40k. I was offered a normal polo gti for 33 fully speced on road. So with that extra 7 k, you can certain end up with a more powerful and better looking beastie.
  12. several things strike me. but i'll need to se the photos, is the MAF sitting in a pipe that's the sme size as stock or is that 3 in too? try reset ecu a few more times (mine only got used to the cai after the 4th try) and give it a bout 200 kms before making any more judgements.
  13. 23? I dunno, one of the fellas in Melb bought a new one a few months back for 27 drive away. and it is a good idea to seperate the exhaust out, you'll neer get your money back from it, and it makes ppl avoid ur car coz they will think its been hooned around.
  14. Ahhh, the Hoon awakens Yes, but then again at that price you can actually buy a whole lot of other things, entry level lux cars, the original zoom zoom mx 5, a fleet of bomb 180 SX *fUlLy sIk* Lets see... the usual shopping list would be: *coilies *sway bars *strut *zorst *rims *tyres *body kit (Wide body?) *Giant GT Wing *Chipping *big turbo *HIDS *fully sik audio system *Fully sik BOV *Kasssstttt* *hoon powered external waste gate *black hole like tint *Momo shifter *Recaros *fully sik FMIC *CF Bonnet Did i forget anything? FYI CAIs do jack squat for a turbo car IMO, the FMIC in the list was to do the trick
  15. Well Zee, I'm glad to see that your're lovin the new beast. I'd wait a while and see what chipping options come out by the time your warantee runs out. Depending on how much give left in the turbo, chipping is usally the best bang for buck option, then of course you do the zorst and what nots.
  16. OOOhhhh yeahhhh *deep barry white voice* get it on Rob!
  17. I love youtube! Clickies!
  18. First off, I agree with Azza on his views, but seeing as how he's commented about me I guess I should at least say something in my defense or at least clarify my point My first post is a rant, the initial few lines can be read plainly at pointing to the cry babies who won't post happily in the club lounge due to the lack of the count. the last line about the mods? hey, its a rant, if my opinion was that the mods could have done some thing better (go dig up my opinions on post whoring) then don't i have the right to say it? lastly, I am not a whorer, look at my miniscule pos count in relation to how often i've been a member. i participate on these forums even now as a non-rolla owner because I do have a bit of fun here and from time to time can answer a few questions. (you all go buy chrome rims now ya hear?) Azza, all respects to you (and mrs azza she who controls the modifications) but go easy on the labels, last I checked we've never talked on these forums, so lets start this friend ship on a good note eh? Chrome ppl?
  19. lol! now this thread is showing more life! the chrome man is pleased
  20. Happy Birthday Brandon, You've made my stay at this forum a great one!
  21. oh well, at least i can still promote chrome on the forum
  22. negatron kev says slap some chromes on that sedan! And don't keelp playing around with that gear box either, i'm sure its a heap of cash to fix.
  23. WOw, the new club lounge has absolutely no feel of the old "general discussions" page... could it be coz the posts don't count anymore? You whorers suck! and damn u mods for killing the count! *rant*
