ITS WAR!!! MF!!!!!!!!!! i paid him to buff up my whole car.. so.. i hope it will make a difference... btw.. theres a obvious mark on it... he said.. he had to... flip it.. thats y theres a mark.. and all... sigh

ive just got my grille painted and all.. its f**KING ****!!! the colour doesnt look .. well... colour might be.. close.. id say.. like 80-90% identical but the shining and reflection and all.. its damn different.... the guy said.. its plastic and aftermarket.. u cant expect much.... n the worst of all.. it doesnt fit perfectly!!!! the right side is like... 1 cm popping out... ok... guys... is this normal????????? and plz dont tell me that i should buy the toyota one... i regret now... i need to make sure whether this is the painters problem... or its the problem with my grille at 1st need to know asap... im gonna bring my car to this guy again tomorrow morning.. he said after the apint is dry and after wax.. it should look at lot better........ TRUE???? or just some covering up business??

thats wt ive heard.... from this forum.. n IX..

ooicic!! anyway whats a mandrel bent??? does it make a difference for a 1ZZ to change it to 2.25 inch? coz from obzession... .. it improved the car alot with the apexi N1 and the 2 1/4 inch... like before.. the car only went to 130 n it dies... but after he got it.. 160 n keeps going.......he described it as if its a master piece or something... at 1st wanted to buy the apexi ws... but since its soo expensive to just to install it... i might join your group buy for a x force... Vtti16v... the brand apexi... sounds sooo temptin tho.. :P hahaha is it worth paying 800 for the performance and sound? and what is cheap?? id thought nothing on your car is cheap!!! :P I never said all the parts in my car are expensive. Its a cheap muffler that I have atm, i am going for WS in future. hehe to me.. none of ur stuff is cheap.. :P the whole thing... 2.25inch bend(?) mendrel + muffler... 320? hmm... id like that...

i dunno.. heard -ve stuff about the whiteline sway bar from the forum they snap and all.. id rather go for TRD.. or maybe this cusco...

i dont know.. ive been deciding... can anyone tell me whether the X-force will fit straight on our 1ZZ??? from the search i did ages ago... all the apexi's muffler wont fit on the 1ZZ.. unless... u get 2 1/4inch mandrel bent exhaust... (according to the other guy... obsezzion i think, he got the apexi N1 installed.. with the 2 1/4 mendrel... $700-800) coz all 1ZZ r like 2 inch.. and sportivos r 2 1/4 inch... one question does an extra 1/4 inch in the mandrel increase the performance?? vvti16v i guess urs a 1ZZ right? i dun think i saw the DUNK from the site.. but anyway.. it might need some adjustment too... so.. its not double the price for sure... btw.. DANZ what are you using?

i might be interested in it.. coz i was saving up for the apexi WS muffler.. but i think i need to get a different mendrel thing.. which will cost a lot more... give up.... will this fit straight on a VVTi?

do cusco make.. sway bars?

nope.. they dont have it....

cusco homepage r u guys takling about this cusco?? anyway.. i cant find the part for our corollas... the stupid pc at skool.. cant open decode jap.... interested in the price 2 :)

i saw a black sportivo... wif BIG rims... number plate POOGIE!!! im pretty sure hes from this forum right??? friday night.. parked outside a jap restaurant... o'connel st? or something like that!

after i get my car all fixed up.. im gonna take some pics.. : :) but its sooo common now... i didnt see that many that grille before i buy it but on the day i picked up the grille... believe it or not.. i saw like.. at least 5 corollas with the aftermarket grilles... anyway.. back to the topic... can any1 suggest where i can get the sway bars?? like TRD ones?? in sydney... i know 1 (u know who) which will sell it... but... the wait........!!!! where did u guys get it??? other than the group buy that i missed..

Sedan owners, note the rear skirt :D thats the sportivo kit for the rear.... but its for the sedan... i think they have it in aus

lol.. so true!!!!!

group buy finished while back mate sorry. NOOooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!! shudve chek this more frequently!!! anyway.. how long was the wait???

wheres the pic?

hahha yep.. i have a pre face lift... WOOOHOOO!!! im getting my grille today!!!!!!! finally!!!! its been looooooooooooooong wait!!! sway bar.. comin soon!! gotta check the group buy post...

its the same as my avatar... i meant the colour

i find it pretty comfortable.. with the neck rest..... BUT not the ones u said... its waaaaaaaaaaaaayyyy to small... i cant even reach my neck.. the ones.. with bigger cushions r good..

if you guys r able to order 1 extra.... rear sway bar let me know... ok guys??

sigh... i dont know when i will be getting this sway bar... i couldnt get my frickin grille yet... its been like the 5th week... man.. have ppl stop making aftermarket grilles nowadays??

sounds like some1 been doing the house work... :P anyway most of use here dont even have the filters in the car.... i think....
