i payed $1000 with a service becasue it was due.

a little steep but i know the guy was good at what he does and i wouldve paid anything just to see those revs stay in LIFT

hey just got my clutch replaced with a heavy duty clutch and machined the fly wheel.

my car now stays in lift from first to second and so on!! :)

im so happy if u have the problem of changing gears i recommend u do this!!!

it will solve the problem

no the clutch isnt slipping i just have trouble getting it from 1st to second at high revs.. is there a certian clutch i should get?

and what will the lightened fly wheel achieve sorry dont know too much

your average corolla does not rev that high?

yes but i have a sportivo and he was standing next to the car and he had serviced it before.

the clutch i have is the original and it ahs done 130000 kms, so do u reccomend me to change it?

how much will that cost?

and the other day i went to a mechanic and told the problem. "when i try and change from 1st to second at around 7,500 rpm to 8000rpm the gears crunch and it feels like i cant find the the gear" he looked at me weird and said that i shouldnt be changing gears that high.... WHY would he say such a thing?

yeah i have the same problem and it is really starting to annoy me!!!

does anyone know any good mechanics in sydney castle hill so i can get this done by someone who knows what they are doin??

hey guys just got a ces cold air intake, not sure if anyone has asked this but can anyone post up pics to show me step by step procedure in fitting it.

I GOT NO IDEA!!

are u sure nengun dont do it went to there website and it say corolla sportivo zze 123

hey guys just curious what would win??

everyone i have asked said lancer:(

needs to be washed

thanks all for your help, appreciated ;)

yeah i thats what i have noticed that the prices are so varied.

this guy at strathfield told me he can get me some installed for 250 dollars. i might just get them from him, his price is in the middle and if something goes wrong i know where he works lol.

i have been looking around to get some hid lights just wondering how much is a reasonable price.
