  1. Hey mate

    Dont touch that nut! Its meant to stay welded on.. Not sure if the guys are trying to be funny or if they are assuming that you have to get it off but that stays where it is.

    Theres a bolt that either comes with the coilovers or you re-use the original that goes straight into that nut from underneath the car the same way the stock ones are.

    Dont worry about the nut on top of the original suspension, the coilovers dont have that nut on the top because theyre adjustable. They should fit straight into the chassis with no modification to be done to the chassis of the car.

  2. Fellas if anyone is having issues taking the clips off, grab the smallest flat head screw driver you've got and squeeze it in between the screw in the clip and the outer ring and lift the screw then slowly turn it anti-clockwise, that should help because if you try turning the screw where the clip is, you'll be turning it forever. ;)

  3. Hey,

    Hey chrono,

    that is his headlight protectors i believe :D

    I really like the Headlight mod, well done! :toast:

    Evo

    Thanks Fellas! Yeah they're headlight protectors

  4. Welcome mate. Nice I like your title for the thread ;)

    What direction is this stivo gonna go?

    haha I was going to mention you in the thread because I stole your title.

    I'm planning on doing some mods slowly, first engine mod is CAI. What you've done with yours is very similar to what I've been planning to do to mine so you might see some resemblance down the line

  5. Today I thought I'd try to paint the headlight surrounds. I've done something very similar in the past so the oven trick worked really well. I under estimated the time it would take for the paint to dry so I've had to keep my car without a bar overnight.

    I'll have more pics when its all done

  6. Hey everyone, I've been on the forum for a couple of months now and thought I'll start my own little thread.

    I'm Huss and I bought my 05 ZZE123 Sportivo off another forum member in February (Mal). Car is pretty standard but I've got a few plans up my sleeve.

    First thing is a few cosmetics including Tail light mod, black headlight surround, lowered springs/coilovers- not sure which way to go yet.

    I've come across from PGA and had a Pulsar SSS for around 2 years which was an awesome little car.

    Here are some pics.

  7. Haha, congrates on the purchase!

    How does the Stivo fair against the SSS? SR20 and 2ZZ?? ^_^

    Thanks mate!

    Stock V Stock = Sportivo hands down

    I had an exhaust system and extractors on the SSS and I feel as though it had more torque down the lower end of the revs but it would have been very very close on the 1/4 mile

    I'm still "lift happy" though.. might take a little while to settle in!

  8. Hello all. Im Huss and I've recently bought an 05 Sportivo Corolla off another forum member- Mal.

    Ive attached a few pics. I've come across from PGA (Pulsar Group) and used to own an N15 Pulsar SSS which I reluctantly let go of but haven't looked back since I got the Stivo.

    Plans are for CAI and to lower it (I'm after comfort so not sure whether to go with Lovell sportslows or Coilovers, don't want to spend TOO much either)

    Thoughts?
