i havent seen this much action in here for years! i love pineapples too dyl... but have never tested the theory personally :P might go buy pineapple and then ask the missus next week. i wish i had net access at work this place is rockin today

Well done. You do realise that police do troll internet car forums for stupid things like this.So saying they don't have a clue is a croc, you've just admitted to doing that, hope you get caught. They have these things for a reason, modern day cats are extremely efficient as has been mentioned, especially on the sportivo. iit was just a question... well... if i get extractors should i keep the current stock one ? to gain more power the one needs to burn fuel quicker more quickly, thus getting it in and out quicker, the most obvious way is to reduce restrictions in the exhaust and inlet. cat converters have alot of restrictions particularly stock ones. This is why 100% of track and race cars dont run with a cat converter as they are not required to have one and it reduces power, however this is illegal on a road registered car as pointed out by these tossers. yet its your car and opinions from pu55ys like these shouldnt deter you. i've worked on many track and racing cars and they have all ran a cat converter. where in this qoute do yu see wether he wants to use it on the street, is worried about cops and epa?? no offence intended for anyone but for all we know, hes planning on dragging or tracking his car. the point is, less restrictions = higher flow = more power.. which is nothing to do with police and epa and website patrol police.. answer dugongs question properly.. or dont.. why would you drag race a corolla??? obviously its for the street

thats nice and hot MRROLA lookin real good!! welcome to the site as well! mods are good :) u get 1 u cant stop

I was wondering if we could change the name of one of the forum areas from Suspenion & Brakes to Suspension & Brakes :P :P :P just noticed it then

number crunching means nothin when we see the times we'll believe u :P

I would be interested in 4000 (or 5000) series. Then we get to argue over the specs I would only get the slotted ones ;) I am only interested in slotted too :) Then we can argue about hat colour? Black Blue Red or Gold. :P

nah im keepin the stockies... but they are goin bright red.

when we get our rotors changed, lets keep the old ones , go cruisin and throw them at something. or someone. hahaha

thats what i meant ;)

engine out isnt it??? if i can remember correctly??

when the reply to my email i'll question them about how many they would want made up to justify making them and at what price. we got 3 already ;)

Thanks Dyl ;) Not sure what higher demand acutally = but if its a reasonable number you know i will be back here with a group buy

WoW congrats mate!!! your right dylan gee mishes dating service must be working either that or toyotas are good for mating in :P

Thanks Northy, i emailed DBA direct but if they dont get back to me i'll look into RDA. dont need em redrilled but already got someone lined up to do that for when i got the dba ones anyway :P are yours slotted/cross drilled?? u dont have a part number handy do ya dude?

hey peeps! lookin to upgrade the rotors in the stivo... sick of hearing my teeth chatter together when i touch the middle pedal... so! after speaking to numerous people (thanks bill ;) ) i went and enquired about DBA 4000 series rotors for the celica (DBA4562) Apparently they dont exist anymore, they will only make them when there is a high demand or something like that. i've also heard that there are DBA759S (like omn1potent got on his car) but nowhere can find them for me either. Help? Anyone? any other suggestions?

actually silva i think u need the right nut as well :P

hahaa so pete's got a chance??? just jokes!!! :P

are u offering george??

it'll be much more expensive to buy a second hand door i would think. listen to everyone else, get the skin replaced

haha yeah only 1 of us :P

mmm but the wheels still shouldnt lock up if u press the brake slightly. very strange maybe there was oil on the road or something, abs wont help u sliding on that

yo yo phill

wow dead ey

Weapon R headers aren't all that they are cracked up to be. Have a read on Newcelica.org and hear the whinging about how much they cost for no or little gains. Also it's better to keep your car legal as far as rules are concerned cause you never know when the boys in blue are gonna pull you over for a friendly look see at your car. 2.5" exhaust not 2.25" as 2.25 is very close to what the Sportivo has stock. Ported stock headers(forum sponsor has them) combined with catback and intake with decent filter will yield good results. It's the little things that are overlooked that also make a difference. Which oils to use in gearbox/engine that don't drain power to be pumped around. Spark plug settings,cleanliness of fuel lines/throttle body and injectors(for cars that are getting highish in km's). Don't forget fuel quality as the 2zz is sensitive to the different octane levels you can buy. They love 98/100octane fuel!! Then you have some additives for your engine that I label "horsepower in a bottle" that have dyno proven gains. there are heaps of things you can do but you have to A) fork out the money to do it and B) don't listen to anybody who hasn't attempted any of the mods your looking at or doesn't have them on their car. As for people who own for instance a 180sx(not picking on your mate at all) they have no idea about a 2zz or how it works. It's real easy to make gains on a F/I car but not so on a N/A car. Listen to the right people and don't just take the opinion of the first so called expert you come across who suggests a huge list of named brands that will cost you the earth adn have been known to be less than impressive in the gains dept. You have got a lot of people on this forum with a wealth of knowledge and experience with regards to N/a vehicles and how to make power increases. PM them and ask the relevant questions as I"m sure they will be more than happy to help you out in your quest for the ever elusive KW :D two thumbs up for that post, very good advice take note all ;)

i think the site was supposed to be like that at first.... or maybe it was a misprint thats why he gave so many to mish. still, i see what u mean, they are pretty ugly
