  1. Thats peter! He has the booster kit on his car! no i don tthink so. i met peter and took a good look at his kit at the first monthly meet i went to last year... i think i remmber him saying he didnt like the aftermarket tail lights... this rolla has them on. ive seen this monsta car round b4 and its an asian driver, and the kit on the back doesnt have that panel on the back hatch door that makes the bumper look fatter... love peters rear hatch door, but me thinks it looks slightly different to his rolla :P but no im pretty sure that wasnt peter.
  2. i couldnt be bothered removing all the rice ive added to my conquest, id rather go to the trouble of adding a 6speed so i got an extra gear 2 play with hahahaha! other than that, (going on another tangent) regardless of how much it would cost, is it at all possible to install sportivo engine, trans, etc into a non stivo?? im guessing thats a stupid question, but is there anything in the 1zz that would prevent a successful 2zz conversion?
  3. yea i been tossing up between keeping it stealth and making/buying the fibreglass pods but im not so sure about how well a pod is going to stick to the rest of the stock door. im sure theres a proper way to do it but yea, ill research my options b4 i decide to go the easier stealth stock replacement option. the speakers i got look good! would be a waste of a decent looking grill to be hidden away by the stock stuff. ive done fibreglassing b4 - made my own sub box for my 8"kicker solobaric :)
  4. im just wondering how you ppl have upgraded your speakers on your front doors? the logic im goin by is that if your upgrading your speakers, it only makes sense that you want to show em off a bit instead of hiding behind the plastic grille of the stock speakers, so what have you guys done to modify your car doors so you can see the upgraded speakers? if you did it yourself, would be great if you could provide some advice? i want to keep my doors relatively stock looking except for the new speakers i got, so im guessing that im gonna have to cut off the grille that covers the stock speaker and fabricate a mount thatll point the speaker more towards my head. anyone done this kinda job or had custom job done by jbhifi or something? pics would help?!? im not gonna pay someone else to do it for me so ima need some ideas to guide this project. thankz in advance jase
  5. would it be possible upgrade from auto to sportivo 6 speed manual? or 5 speed manual to 6 speed in my case? :) hahaha
  6. ive read in some car magazines that CAI filters have to be boxed in order to be legal (here in NSW anyway - have i been misinformed?). so what your thinking about has been done b4 and it may or may not be better than the regular panel filter. my guess is that it simply wouldnt perform as well as installing a CAI. i was bout to modify my intake pipe to improve airflow but so many ppl in here keep raving bout CAI that decided im not gonna mess with the intake (besides the K+N panel filter i got 4 free) unless i got the $$$ for a decent CAI. but yea if this mod turns out 2 perform as well as a normal CAI then id probebly follow your lead. good luck with it!
  7. AS IF ID 4GET AY? hahahaha! i pmd sb bout this last week!?! (i think it was last week?!) but yea weve been waiting for months already... whats another week ? or another week after that? if you stop checking up this thread 3 times a day, every single day (like i have) , then youll feel a whole lot more happier the moment SB says "your cooling panel has been sent!" but yea im still waiting 4 my frikken cooling panel!
  8. seems that the only 2 options you have is the a pillar or on top of the dash? unless you wanna hack away at the storage space above the ashtray and stick them there. i saw someone on the forums install gauges in a 1din space just above (or was it below) their aftermarket stereo? it was all 1 peice and fit in the 1 din space.
  9. once youve done installing this, DIY instructions would be much appreciated!
  10. Update- finally checked out the wiring of the amp. narrowed the fault with the amp due to the fuse on the big red positive cable that connects the amp to the battery. the amp hasnt blown! woohoo!
  11. 14/1/07 spotted MONSTER black corolla with black altezzas parked outside a house in Woodcroft. not sure if he lives there or not.. spotted this rolla b4... has twin exhausts in the back.. not sure what bodykit it is though. i have a pic of it in my mobile, will post up later.
  12. gday TOCAU, my internet at home is currently with a small company called EMPCOM. When i joined with them, my monthly internet started at $25 to $35 depending on usage. (depended on if i went over 1gig or not). this was on 256kbps/64kbps. slow for adsl standards but as long as its broadband, the wife is happy. the $35 gives me a maximum of bout 5gigs per month. internet use has been solid - no disconnections or disruptions of any kind, although i would have to email them to find out exactly how many gigs i am using each month. with telstra, you can find out pretty easily, but with empcom it was pretty difficult. so basically its a no frills internet service, but its gonna get expensive now! my plan has already increased in price to a minimum of $35-$55/month since i joined, but luckily my contract with them means i still only pay a minimum of $25 until april when my contract expires. i recieved an email late last year saying they will increase their prices even further, so im on the look out for another ISP that would give me a fair price on whats probebly the slowest speed of adsl you can get. so if you are using a reliable isp that offers a fair price on ADSL, if you can recommend them here please?!? they would have to service western sydney though. thanks for your help. jase
  13. http://www.bomex.jp/toyota/runx/index.html here you go.

  15. ah swoit, I regularly cruise thru Plumpton =) might be able 2 spot me im always round rootyhill/mtd/plumpton area.
  16. eeyy! welcome doonside resident! plumpton resident over here :)
  17. i dont actually drill all the way through do i? i mean after taking out the plastic panels theres another metal panel which makes it seems to be in the way.. do i drill through that too? can anyone take pics of the spoiler connectionz from inside the car door with the plastic panels off? if i know what its supposed to look like when its fully installed then i would be more confident.
  18. Its been agez since i bought my spoiler and still trying to understand the installation instructions correctly. the instructions i got from toyota are pretty bad photocopyz and the diagrams are hard to make any sense of and the template i got for it makes me nervous, as if i could easily drill the holes off centre coz i didnt lay the template perfectly. ive only gotten as far as removing all the inside plastic panels around the rear window to take a sneak peek at what im up against and got the right size drill bitz to do the install, but havent got the gonadz to penetrate my rollaz backdoor. i just wanna make sure i dont do the wrong thing! has anyone got any experience in this area? paying someone to get it done is not an option here. thanx 4 your help in advance. jase
  19. check this thread http://au.toyotaownersclub.com/forums/inde...?showtopic=8019
  20. thats full suspicious man. its as if they damage your car just so that you end up paying them to repair it. too convenient that they drop a business card on your window like that
  21. dats in manila right? im nowhere near manila... hahaha! y go to a beer house i can bring red horse home
  22. think it was kung fu kids... there were three of em... one of em was fat? and i still have this memory of the fat 1 crying, standing in the middle of this shallow river thinking he was drowning while the other 2 are trying to convince him to walk to the shore? kinda like ricky bobby from taladega nights thinking he was on fire. i think there was like 3 of those movies.. the last 1 was where the kids were kinda almost at that stage where they werent so cute no more?! used to borrow the vhs all the time along with back to the futurez 1,2 aND3.. but mostly 2 coz i wanted a floating skateboard. but yea whatever it was.. check WWW.YESASIA.COM whatever is your fetish in asian movies... should be there :) service isnt bad either. just round a week or less for my stuff to get delivered from (i think) hong kong to my po box. korean, jap, chinese... new or even the most obscure movies you thought youd never see again.. its there! some movies i highly recommend : korean love storiez - ***my sassy girl ***the classic ***windstruck. they are all different individual strories... but watch my sassy girl coz that is THE BEST DAMN LOVE STORY EVER. BETTER THAN ANYTHING THE USA CAN COME UP WITH AND IM GLAD THE AMERICANS STILL HAVENT RAPED IT AND REMADE IT LIKE THE RINGU AND JU-ON FILMZ. japanese ringu trilogy was amazing. the american filmz were OK (the sequal was better than the first)... but wouldnt ever beat the original. Also bought ju-on (grudge) films from yesasia... they made 2 many of them grudge filmz. other japanese filmz such as BATTLE ROYAL and BATTLE ROYAL II. part 1 is KILLER! MUST WATCH! if you have no idea or expectations from this movie before you watch it... then you will be blown away! part 2 went too damn political... went all "osama bin laden" on it; was strange - guess its a cultural thing that only the japs can really make sense of) other films ive bought from them - erotic ghost story, in the realm of the senses, hong kong hollywood, ong bak and ummm.. far out whats the other one... one armed boxer vs flying guillotine? something like that... was an OLD kung fu movie... some of the actors in this movie made an appearance in KUNG POW... anyone watch kung pow? you could get it from coles for like 12.95.. cant remember the rest since im nowhere near my dvd collection right now. also saw a nice bruce lee box set and a kill bill box set on there that i didnt see in australia. not big on swordplay movies but they are all there as well. you just gotta remember the title of the film or the actor in it... its REALLY hard to figure it out otherwise. as soon as i found out bout these movies as "coming soon" to australia, it would have already been on yesasia for a while.. but besides watching em before your matez is, buying from them usually saves me at least 5 buckz compared to buying em in hmv or sanity or big w if they got the moviez. jase
  23. btw, corollas are also used for taxis in manila... but not where im at - its all bout the tricyclez here when it comez 2 public transport oh yea ive seen video of india... i can see the similaritiez
