sorry guys not parting out. I don't wana take anything away from the new owners enjoyment :P

SOLD ! SOLD!! SOLD!!! sold for $8,900 (bargain for a Sportivo). now off to europe for a few months :D and hopefully the Toyota 86 will be released by the time i come back heheh

GRRR very frustrated: replaced the oil pressure sensor today and the car is still doing the same thing.

As title says im just chasing a stock muffler for a Corolla Sportivo. Can buy or swap for a stainless steel muffler with twin tips on there (looks real nice but a bit too loud for my liking).

Hi mate iv got a Haltech e11v2 if your interested. It does come with a loom and MAF sensor to suit a skyline though so ud have to source those seperate to fit the stivo.

ok so i took the Sportivo in to the mechanics today. Turns out its a faulty Oil pressure switch (sensor). They tested the oil pressure in the car. At Cold idle oil pressure was : 32PSI cold at 3000RPM was : 70PSI Warmed up idle was: 22PSI and warmed up at 3000RPM was: 65 PSI These numbers stayed consistant through out their tests with the oil pressure light being on or off. I will be getting a new Oil Pressure switch even though it doesn't affect the way the car drives, i just hate seing the light come on the dash. Only problem apparently this part is on backorder in Japan ( genuine toyota) and will take about 6 weeks to arrive. lol anyone happen to know where i may be able to source one sooner?

ok, i will be tacking the car to the mechanics tomorow hopefully. Anyone good workshops people recommend on BNE Southside.

Ok, so i attempted Kenshin x DIY VVT/ VVTL clean, i didnt get far though as one of the steel Hoses (whatever thats called) is in the way to take out the VVT valve. I wasn't confident enough to pull off the headers to get the pipe off. I didnt attempt to do the other VVTL valve as i figured no point if i can only do half. I will take the car to the mechanics and just let them sort it out. I will report back once its fixed.

iv got Penrite full synthetic 10-40 in there. i was going to go 5-30 but yeah decided not too as i thought ut may be a bit to light.

Hi guys, Thanks for the replies. I have triple checked the oil level and it is dead bang perfect. I have day off work tomorow so i will check the VVT and VVTL oil control valve filters. Fingers crosses haha

Hi guys, i Own an 04 Sportivo, My Oil Pressure light seems to come on sometimes. Mainly if i drive a bit spiritatly in lift or if im cruising on the highway and put a bit of load on it. It doesnt come on all the tim. Sometimes it will stay on once it shows on the dash and other times it will come on and off. Any ideas what this might be? I have tryed changing oil/ oil filter/ spark plugs with no luck. I will be tacking ti to a mechanic next week for them to look at it, but if there is anything else i can check in the mean time please let me know. Thanks

thanks guys

HI just a quick question. does anyone know which brake calipers an 07 model sx6 aurion uses? i cant pull the wheel off and check because my wheels have lock nuts on them and when the car was at bob janes last week to fix a leek i think they may have taxed the tool i had for them. I am wanting to replace both front and back pads. My friend who is a mechanic is going to order the pads for me but i need to know which calipers they are so he can order the right ones. any help would be appreciated.

Surprisingly they are really comfortable. You wouldnt even think it had coilovers untill u get to a corner
