  1. Thx to brenden -

    Padstow rd > Miles platting rd LEFT Rochedale rd RIGHT Ford rd > Avalon rd RIGHT Mt Cotton rd > Duncan rd > Boundary rd LEFT Panorama dr > Wellington st RIGHT Shore st west > Shore st north.

    Destination Wellington point.

    Shore st north >Shore st west LEFT Wellington st >Panorama dr > Woodlands dr RIGHT Mt Cotten rd Left Mt Cotton rd RIGHT California creek rd LEFT Beenleigh Redland bay rd Through round a bout and head south on m1.

    Exit 79 Robina town centre.RIGHT at round a bout. Cross m1 LEFT Railway st > Gold coast/Springbrook rd > Franklin dr > Gold coast /springbrook rd RIGHT Pine creek rd(Gold coast/springbrook dr)

    RIGHT Nerang/ Murwillumbah rd LEFT Beaudesert/nerang rd RIGHT Henri robert dr > Guanaba rd > Golf course rd > Siganto st RIGHT School st LEFT Alpine tce > Bartle rd > Tamborine Mountain rd(Main western rd) > Geissmann rd > Tamborine mountain rd RIGHT Beaudesert Beenleigh rd Right Milne st > Main st LEFT round a bout LEFT onto m1 north.

    Follow this on the street directory and see what you think. Probably take 3 - 4 hrs depending on stops. This combines some steep climbs/descents and some good open roads. Also some great photo opportunities at lookouts etc.

    So dont forget Meet at Sunnybank Rugby Club as per northy's map at 11:00 am :D

    Hey Jas i watched the weather tonight with stoopidhead....we were both happy to see 31 deg B) luky we not a bunch of whinging vic's :P

    and luck also we have CAI...hehehehee

  2. I've recieved a service feedback survey from Toyota Extra Care and will also be putting the issues in writing on this. I suggest you all do the same (if you have concearns) and be sure to be HONEST, no sugar coating. They need to know the problems exist before anything will happen.

    Again this reafirms Bill and myselves statements earlier.

    Get into it guys. Write a letter to your dealers service manager and CC Jenny in on it.

    If a corolla owners is alone in the forest and he grinds his gears? what sound does it make?????

    NOTHING because no one heard it ;)

    get my drift????

  3. QLD guys or anyone that can make it.

    We have been extended an invitation from Velocity Import Performance (VIP) club to their Christmas BBQ in December.

    At the moment the dates are 11/12 Dec or the 18/19 Dec. It will be preferably on a Sunday (as people tend to work more on Saturdays)

    If anyone is interested in going please let me know so I can pass on numbers to their events coordinator.

    There will be a cruise prior to the BBQ also ;)

    Cruise and BBQ places are TBA

  4. indy storms have always been some of the worst! didnt a F1 car get struck by lightning last year? ph34r.gif

    No that was the shockwave of my 'snowflake' going past him last year ;)

    Come on ...good thought.....fine weather, fine weather,....great day...great day!!!

  5. hay fellas...im new to this forum , but i too have a blue sportivo (toyota sold out black ones at the time  :( )

    im located on the southside....ne ways hope to join the next cruise!!!

    happy crusing!  :D

    Hey wei wei,

    Are you Kyles mate? if so where were yo the other night at Broadwater? we were there waiting for you and you never showed up :(

  6. I am currently with AAMI and they are doing a great job with my mods. We have an agreed value of 3X,XXX for the car and all is good.

    Until next year when they will manualy review my cover and more than likely suggest that I go to a specialist motor vehicle insurer like Just Cars or the lilke.

    I put just cars to the test one day and asked them for a quote. They initialy came back with 29,000 as the agreed value for the car. I asked to talk to management due to the number of my modifications. .......they came back with 32,000 as the agreed value and I told them to go jump in the lake.

    Shannons came back with a good agreed value, but wanted $1,900 for my car as it will be used as a daily driver and not only on weekends.

    I will be hiring the services of a insurance broker next year to do the running around for me.

    Oh BTW i am 25+ with rating 1 for life (no matter who i go with)

  7. No offence to TRD on this but there are alot better LSD's on the market at the moment. Remember there are a few diferent types of LSD to think of when you purchase one.

    1, 1.5 etc. etc.

    pulley and gear etc etc.

    So do alot of research before you go to buy one (as also with anymod research, research, research)

  8. Northies start point sounds good......so the start will be Sunnybank Rugy club on the Mucullogh St there at 11.00 am for a 11.30 leave

    then we will head onto Wellington point for lunch and photos and then onto mt Tambourine if your keen.

    It's going to be a nice long drive this time.

    And dont forget to bring UHF radios if you have them.

  9. Did you paint the hubs? They look pretty crappy unpainted and does make a big difference to the look of your wheels. Have a look at pics of my car. Think it adds that finished touch.

    bullet,

    yeah mate I though about that but I dont think the red hub looks good!? IMHO

    I think that when I finally upgrade the rotors (DBA Slotted) I will paint the hubs black. so that they dont take away from the mag wheels and the rotors ;)

    But they do look scmik on yer car brenden B)

  10. Guys/Gals and peekay :P

    I had some spare time today so I decided to clean the look of the calipers. Which were already painted red.

    I ended up cleaning all of the paint of the pads clips etc and repainted the calipers porpelry rather than just covering the rotor and spraying everthing i could see :D and resprayed the clips.

    I think the new look is a bit more refined. and obviously alot more time consuming.

  11. Hey Stu - I'll get mine before you :P :P :P :P

    na na nanana

    heheheee

    Oh and for those who are interested I went and had a 'GOOD' look at the system on Saturday :D I cant let out to much info....you'll just have to buy one and see :P but trust me you won't regret it B)

  12. I know I shouldn't post this but hey ( I dont care )

    I have recently joined up to a Toyota car club called 'Toyota Car Club Australia - Queensland' (TCCA-Q)

    Anyway recently they had their annual Show/Shine and Dyno day which I got a phone call about to join in. I did and it was a fun day. I got alot of interest in the car and turned a few heads on the dyno.

    A few cruises later and meetings etc. The club had is annual presentation dinner for the year.

    The grlfriend and I attended, and were laughing hard by the end of it as the corolla again turned heads with the awards that it won. (as follows)

    DYNO

    - Winner Naturally Aspirated 4 Cyl

    - Winner Most Powerful FWD

    Show 'n' Shine

    - Winner Best Exterior

    - Winner Best Interior

    - Winner Best Underbody

    - Winner Best Boot/Hatch

    - Winner Best Engine Bay

    - Winner 1990 - 2004 Contemporary

    - 1st Place Overall 2004 Show and Shine (2 trophies)

    The corolla took home 10 trophies in all :D

    I was the least to say proud of the Sportivos efforts :P

    I hate to boast guys but I thought someone here might be interested :D

  13. OK

    I went for a drive on Saturday and decided where we are going for the cruise.

    The start point is yet to be finalised but we are going to head over to wellington point for lunch and then head down the gateway/m1 to Mt tambourine (brenden I need your help here!)

    It will be a later start time. around 11.00 -> 11.30 with lunch being around 12'ish I hope. there is a nice fish/chip store and also a restaurant there for eats and drinks

    I will be getting the maps/guides done as early as I can this week.

    Would anyone think that Garden City is a good place for the start of the cruise? as its on the right side of town and its a place which most people know well??

    Craig

    P.S Could definate's please PM me with how many people are coming in each car please.

  14. hmmmm

    maybe northy is blessed by the autogods?????

    Case#1 - Grabbing a 15.1 at a test and tune event where all the other stivos could manage 15.2 at best!?

    Case#2 - an extreme speed is a car that in theory cant go that fast without a 6 spped box?

    I think its time to call Fox Mulder and Dana Scully!!!!!!!!!!!

  15. Cool........sounds like we have a few more people now.
