haha come on i give it enough of that maybe i should give the guys at toyota a busted lip more like it

nate why are u selling your commy dude?

I'm looking for something that redlines at 8200rpm.

Gday mate, how come you sold your stivo?

Lets just say a "bad storm" got the best of me. I didn't sell it, it was written off due to flood damage.

That sux. Did you get to keep all your CES gear?

I'll be surprised if they don't go for double that. High flow cat would be almost a necessity to get some big gains out of the headers.

Keep watching this space, there might be another option available as soon as I pull my finger out ;)

OK, im interested.

Gday mate, how come you sold your stivo?

Is that 5-10 at wheels or fly?

That looks nice. Comes with gasket and should be bolt on. You would probs want to change rest the exhaust to compliment them. Not sure of gains but should be quite good. $400 starting price, bet it goes pretty high.

Here's a new idea... ZZE with front canards and additional side skirts :D .

I've just got this done not long ago..

Looks awesome Matrix. What spring /shock set up are you using?

Found out how good lift sounds with TRD CAI! Need to get smaller filter so I can put fog light back in. Pretty good feed for cold air though, as bottom of TRD pod is right there though. Seat of the pants seems a bit quicker too. Really happy. Thanks Gav!

No wukkas mate, glad you're happy hey. :) If you can get yourself a short 45D elbow and a straight coupler, you can fit any pod filter in with the foglight in place.

Cheers, Gav.

Cool, thanks Gav. Im thinking about heading down to get a lil K&N pod for her as ive had em for years and always been happy. Now to lower it!

Hi mate.

TRD filter should fit fine with pre upgrade model...should be no need to change.

cheers

Mate, if so it got the better of me.. It fouled on fog light with what was provided.

Sits really nice. She is dumped in the *****! Welcome Andre.

04 was a good year mate. Enjoy your stivo and time on the boards. You will find plenty of info and things to do to your new car on this site.

I just picked up a wheel and tyre package. I had Kumho ecsta ku23 215/40/17 put on wheels. For the price, im really happy so far. They should wear ok as they are not too soft. I have only had them on for 5 days and I am happy with how they have responded through the bends.

Fitted TRD CAI tonight. Sounds good, had too may beers to take her for a run. Also spoilt her with some fuel injector cleaner with only quarter of a tank so its really potent. Lookin forward to lift on way to work 2moro.

Read through the relevant topics after a search and it will point you in the right direction. I picked mine up from a member on this site. Kepp your eyes on the buy & sell section, or just google it or ebay it.

happy shopping!

Looks the goods, you gotta be happy with that.

KE70 is roadworthy and registered!!!!

fixed front bumper, realigned the headlights and fixed the centre console squeak

Nice work mate, must be good to have her on the road. Unbolted rear muffler to listen how loud she is. Not as bad as i thought it might sound, might do something there.

Wheels look sleek mate. Are they black with machined face?

Yesterday painted brakes red and fitted new wheels. Took some piccies so will start my car thread soon. Really happy with new wheels, look really good on.

Gday Duan. Mate, to be honest I have never seen a Caldina before, look sweet!

Welcome aboard.

De-badged the hatch. Took off Toyota and Corolla badges. Not real happy with how it turned out. Got some ghosting from the T and the O from Toyota and practically all of Corolla. Its in the paint.

Cut and polish usually does the trick really well.

I used Maguires wet look which didnt do anything. I then used Maguires Scratch X which softened the lines a bit, then it got dark. I will try again 2moro. I will also fit new wheels and paint brakes 2moro. Then I will need springs desperately!!

Car is looking really good mate. How come you used K&N filter? Is the one supplied with TRD too long?

Yep. Since mine is a facelift model the foglight is completely different to the prefacelift one and it sticks out a lot more which goes in the way of the pod filter. I still have it lying around somewhere.

Cool, thanks. Seeing as mine is prefacelift, from what you said mine should fit.

Received pallot fromTempe Tyres today with my Lenso's. Will post piccies when I fit them.
