  1. Looks really good Mate. Wheels suit well. Bet your looking forward to lowering it.. Will look hot..
  2. Oh, there seems to be something down there that shouldn't be there..
  3. Holy crap!! B) They are like flood lights. The clarity and colour tones are really good.
  4. Cool, I will take that knowledge on board. Guess I must be lucky because that is the same way I have painted all my brakes on all my cars over the last 10 years. I just try and paint the right places..
  5. Nope.. I was going to get tricky and take the caliper bracket off and spray it black and the rest red as it is. But got a bit lazy and went for red all round.
  6. As above LED may be a better option. Or you could just change the colour of the filter or condom as you call it! Most of the time in lighting, the lamps are the same colour tone its just the colour of the filter which gives the different colours.
  7. Looks nice and clean. Love a white car. Welcome Mate! :D
  8. Hey Guys, Have been around for a while, so I thought I should stop being rude and properly introduce myself. Have owned my Stivo for a little over a year, and have really enjoyed it so far. Was not even looking at buying a car, but my mother in law offered it to me at a good price. I could not refuse. After owning V8 Commodores for a long time I was looking at a cheaper daily drive. At that stage I had 2 V8's, A VH SLE 308 and a VS Senator 215i. The Senator was my daily drive and the VH is my toy. I have since sold the Senator but am keeping the VH as I have big plans for it. When I first got the Rolla I thought I would not spend a cent on it. But it is a great lil car and I cant help myself. In the past fortnight I have de badged the bootlid apart from Toyota symbol. Fitted after market black mesh grill. Fitted TRD CAI. Got a set of Lenso Samurai Super Light Sc01 17" wheels with Kumho Ecsta KU23 215/40/17 shoes. Oh and I painted the brakes red. I have included a few photos, but the quality is really ordinary. When I get a new camera I will put new pictures up of car with new wheels. Am also looking at lowering springs to drop it in the next couple of weeks Ash.
  9. Gday mate. Welcome to the boards. Im sure you will love your Rolla, they are great lil cars. My wife has exactly the same model and colour as you. Enjoy your time here..
  10. Looks tough mate, nice work... :D
  11. Gday Flugel! Good upgade the 03 Ascent. My wife has the same car and its proven very reliable. Welcome aboard..
  12. Yeah, im really happy with my Rolla. Many years ago, my second car was a Ford Laser and it was a great little car. Never had any dramas out of it and I gave it a hard time for years. I could still slide into an XR6T anytime..
  13. I would like to come out and meet you guys and see your cars.. Where is this meet spot exactly?
  14. I bought a bottle of STP fuel injector cleaner for $8. For that price, what do you have to lose? If you get it, make sure you put it in with a quarter of a tank or less so its potent. In my opinion, $100 rip off, $8 worth a shot..
  15. That is pretty good. I used to think he was a tit, now I think he is great.
  16. I really want to get a monster truck, like a HPI Savage. A few of my mates have trucks and they say the more people out the more fun it is.
  17. Looking nice mate. Welcome aboard!
  18. Took pedals off I installed the other day cos I dont like them and they are a bit dangerous when they get stuck on my floor mats!
  19. Car looks awesome.. BTW, nice vid too.
  20. Ill get in first and say use the search button as you can find all you need to know there. Look at exhaust, CAI, suspension. Plenty of things to do..
  21. Welcome aboard Young. It is awesome, lots of info and friendly people. BTW, you should be looking at a pre-facelift Stivo! :D
  22. There are so many hobbies around! Imagine the time put into these. Hows the white car in 1st post with deflated airbag and blood everywhere.
  23. Oh it is nasty! If Ford made it like that, it probably would have sold more. In saying that, I am surprised at the amount of these things that are on the road.
