  1. Duy, the previous owner molested in just about every wrong way. HOW DID YOU KNOW THIS??? :P Well ever since you owned it, you fed it right, bought it a few pairs of shoes and a brand spanking new dress 😜
  2. I never had to either. My car drives hard. Your car had been well kept since the previous owner was an enthusiast himself with a 4age engine suspended in mid air in the garage. Only reason I didn't buy that blue one of yours when it was on carsales back in 2009 was because I was after a white one 😊
  3. I'm using TRD oil filter. Works nicely. Oil is still a light to medium honeycomb colour even after 8,000 kms. As for cleaning the throttle body, I believe there is a DIY in the workshop submission section.

  5. Reset the ECU. Drive it as it should be and change gears no lower than 3.5k rpm. Hit lift from stand still on the fwy during off peak hours. Just give sufficient time for the engine to adjust to your driving. Get the car serviced. New oils, fluids and replace what ever is worn out (i.e. belts, chain, hoses, fuel filter, etc). Then begin your performance analysis with the car.
  6. It opens the driver door and can drive with it. Just can't open the boot. I don't use the key to open the doors anyway. That's what the remote is for 😜 The transponder part of the key is reused. Just simply pop it in the new case.
  7. Can't view the link on my phone. But you can buy a blue or black one from here http://www.hpheaven.com.au/store/parts-accessories/info/1562/turbosmart-45-degree-elbows-27570mm/?cat1=40&catid=0&page=1
  8. I bought 2 flip key shell cases for ZZE keys+transponder from eBay, just like Kenshin. About $20 shipped from HKG. Had it cut for $15. Perfect cut. Transponder fits nicely inside. However, it can't open the boot. It's not a genuine Toyota shell casing... But f*%k me it should be 😁
  9. Coilovers let's you adjust the bump and rebound. However, low to mid range coilovers only allow you to adjust them simultaneously. More convenient coilovers for you would be Teins with the EDC control unit. Let's you electronically adjust the damper settings to soft or hard at the press of a button. Other coilovers do not have this as you are required to jump out of your car and adjust each damper knob manually. If your going down the coilover path, make sure you get ones with camber plates. Let's you adjust the camber to +/- degree settings. I have Pedders extreme XA in my ZZE but with custom camber plate tops, as they do not have it as a factory option. My coilovers have been post customized by Centreline Suspension. Le.vinh.zr has the teins with EDC installed in his ZRE if you want to know more about the ride comfort. Teins generally have a softer ride comfort compared to other coilovers.
  10. Stuff the snow. Where are them short skirt asian babes?? 😁
  11. I can say for Potenza s001... yes they do especially in the wet where it counts. Considered Pirelli P Zeros or Advan Sport?
  12. looks very nice alex... so when are the new shoes being fitted?
  13. vinyl wrap? roof spoiler is gone??
  14. I call shot gun for may we sleeping over sat night?
  15. Lol. Time to get rid of those coilovers and replace them with bags Reece. Your drive way looks pretty smooth compared to Duy's driveway = tow bar scrapage
  16. Actually it isn't if you had the right contacts. Royal purple $14 per quart. Royal purple XPR $26 per quart.
  17. You can also use redline shockproof as well, but be sure to change it every 30,000 Kms.
  18. u shoulda tested how fast his reaction as when you pull up ur handbrake. and if he hits u, new rear bar and rear skirt while ur at it too. have no patience for tail gaters I'm pretty sure one was you lmao not sure though. Yeah i was turning off to one of the back roads, nearly hit me anyway I've spotted that car before, also seen a toyota aurion with the biggest camber i've ever seen! Highly doubt that.
  19. Strange. Would of thought it would especially revving to 8000rpm. That would mean the stock sportivo is super restrictive not to have a straight through muffler. Got photos of the insides?
  20. Yeh that low in Melb and u can kiss goodbye to your exhaust system over the half size cement speed humps. i.e. Nicholson St, Richmond.
