What did you do to your car today?
maca_10 replied to JustinW's topic in General Toyota & Other Car Discussions
Wash her, rotated the tyres with just the standard tools and jack (which is all you need really, just takes longer) and cleaned 6 years worth of brake dust from the rims. Now looks very shinny! -
I'm currently waiting on the rear sway bar for mine but why would you get the rear strut bar?? I don't know too much about them thats all!

Hey mate, i'm in the same boat as you are. Also want HID's. I also read that there are no pre made Projectors for the ZZE's. If anyone knows of anyone in the Melbourne area that can make them please let me know. I understand you can get the HID's adjusted but projectors would just make the world of difference. Thanks

Gran Turismo just released the FT-86 II Concept:

like the rims!

Anything will fit if you believe! This part "RD2075P" should fit as its for the Matrix XRS. I have the CES CAI on mine & as I have the facelift it required a little cutout of the inner guard. This part may require a little bit of working too. Best ask the seller however they may not know anything about our Sportivo's.

As of Monday I will be a full-time worker!

$155 was from Bursons in Mitcham, VIC however I believe he was just looking on his system and didn't actually call the supplier of the part. As I said, they don't have any made up yet but if you can find one, please tell. However, if they do, it's obviously new and could have been one of the affected ones. So maybe start this back up in March/April :D

Sorry for bringing up an old thread but i've recently been searching around for one of these. I've rang up a few Bursons and Autobarn's and other places. Prices have been anywhere between $155 and $265 from about 7 different shops. I then rang Whiteline who said these are currently under redevelopment as the last batch they made were too short and did not fit properly. Apparently they are changing the machine that makes them so they should fit perfect. However, there is now a wait of at least 2 months on them. I still want to get one but will now have to wait. Once they are in i'll repost here. I also believe that group buy discounts are not really possible and individual's will have to get the part themselves. Anyway, $155 sounds pretty good considering Whiteline themselves sell for $252.

Toyota Sportivo vs DC5R (Honda Integra Type R)
maca_10 replied to RKT - 1.8 TIVO's topic in Corolla / Corolla Sportivo Club
Yeah, i gotta agree with eviltwin on that one. The cars aren't exactly comparable. Or at least they are not as comparable as the STi v EVO IMO. Remember the "r" stands for racing. It's effectively a street legal race car whereas a sportivo is a 600km per tank daily that you can have fun with on the weekends. Obviously there are exception to this, SD e.g., but they are both cool cars. The four door type r in japan would be a better comparison but still not for the sportivo -
Toyota Sportivo vs DC5R (Honda Integra Type R)
maca_10 replied to RKT - 1.8 TIVO's topic in Corolla / Corolla Sportivo Club
Welcome to the forums, When I first started looking at this website I went to this section: http://au.toyotaownersclub.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=24512 It will tell you everything about the sportivo. The DC-2 & Sportivo produce around the same power & torque but the type r weighs less. I believe, but dont quote me, that ITR is about 14.5 QT while the sportivo is about 15.something :) As for the gear changes, i personally have never had a problem, i reckon because the car's previous owner was a mother who only drove it to the shops never experiencing lift. The whole gear crunching issue has been detailed at length throughout these forums so simply use the search bar. Happy hunting -
nice mate

Yep agreed 1st Kill. Cars is awesome but i need to watch Tokyo Mater. I've only seen the trailer :)
-
that would be awesome. I'd take those seats for ma sportivo!

Corolla Sportivo vs Everything else
maca_10 replied to Charlie Trout's topic in General Toyota & Other Car Discussions
For that price, options, servicing, and all the other costs associated with the car, its pretty good. I'd agree the ZZT-231 is probably u next best option unless ur like me and prefer four doors. Civic Type R - same sorta thing but more and more money too (talkin EP3 or even EK9 if u can find one) Then you've got the assortment: Holden Astra, Ford Focus, Mitsubishi Lancer, Subaru Impreza, Mazda 3 You could possibly go German with A3, C-class or 3 Series but would get no perf for the money Otherwise the new corolla seems to be quite a hit on here but u'd miss Lift. If the Sportivo is what you really want just wait a while and see what comes up -
I wish dickheads in the right land on the freeway doing 90 would bugger off back to the slow lane
