i was in mad moose! enjoying the epic pizzas there! and yes i was looking out for either u or goz LAWL -_- im suprised that street is never busy despite the location!

Oh boy...that was posted 2009

so after all the sulking i finally got another throttle body assembly with the 2 sensors (kindly donated by stock from sydney) :) i put it in and it idled higher around 1.6k when warm <_< when i'm driving and going into neutral, the revs drop and then bounce back to 1.7k and then down to 800 and then up again to 1.7k. i suspect faulty/dirty iacv... so i started to swap a few things over. first i opened the iacv on the other throttle body and checked it. seemed dirty but thought it was still ok. then i pulled the whole thing apart using the 5 star torx. oh my... the bloody thing has seized stuck from all the grime inside! :o tried to clean it, made it abit better but it still wasn't vibrating when i plugged it in the engine loom to test. so swapped this one with my clean iacv and problem solvered :) idle is now sitting comfortably around where it should be... 800rpm ;) so on my throttle body this little bastard was faulty and on the other throttle body the iacv is seized... awesome day, now i sleep -_- and no bill i dont stop until i find a solution to the problem -_-

ok, i've had enough of this shit. As most people already know, i recently bought a set of rotors for the front and rear for the sportivo. the ebay listing and the aftermarket sites all say that the sportivo take the SA diameter which is 258mm. well guess what? i tried to get them installed today and they aren't the correct size. they were clearly smaller than the current rotors i got on. mechanic said that they didnt sit flush on the hub. so off they went and now i'm going to order the japanese diameter rotor and fit them on nex weekend. to further add to this, there was a mate who had his changed to RDA gold rotors a long time ago and he said that his mechanic told him the rotors are smaller than the OEM rears. so he "had to get it custom made" to be fitted on the car. This "custom made" is actually just the same size as the japanese rotor. another story i heard was that a former member on this forum redrilled celica ZZT231 rear rotors to fit on the sportivo as they share the same size (just not the stud holes corolla has 4 celica has 5) the size was also 269mm. and this explains why the rear pads on the celica are interchangable between them and the sportivo. also says on the box as well. this clears it up now and i'll be sending emails to the aftermarket companies to update their information so no confusion is to be had again in the future. i'll also update the corolla faq just in case people want to know what brakes to get. FYI - the pads are of the aisin type. not the sumitomo. however when i removed the TRD blacks on the rear it said "sumitomo" on them. don't ask why. that is all, thread closed.

rocketeer did. (but i'm not saying super dave didn't as well) :P
