  1. damn that black facelift one makes me wanna sell mine right now...
  2. thanks Tash, always loved the P1's ever since they came out and wouldn't matter which car i owned they still would go on yeah hopefully it'll be done tomorrow afternoon and then i can just feel content not thinking when is the next time i'll be scraping over something. :D
  3. thanks mate i would definitely say the same to u and more considering all the awesome stuff you've put on that little beauty of yours. one of the real stand out corollas seen here in aus yep will be putting a black badge look very soon, gotta find out how to do it first :P
  4. My partner has one as well in red stock too and the car has been brilliant for the past 5 years. Can't wait to see what you will do to it! Cheers Wang
  5. Actually I have but the front is too low and back is fine, I'm using Lovell springs. Gonna get it changed and hope the ride won't ruin whatever is underneath.
  6. Hey everyone, Would just like to post some pics of my car and hope to do tasteful mods in future and get as much info/advice here on this forums. (TOCA people are awesome! :D ). Some background info on the car bought it on January 4th 2011 at auctions and for a very good price (2008 Conquest model, 19,000kms, government car owned by NSW Health Admin) me and my partner were happy to win it! I've always liked the ZRE models and been looking for one since October 2010 until I got this one. Other than having 1 pin dent on the bonnet and numerous paints chips on the drivers door the car is fabulous and very nice to drive. As soon as I found this site and checked out/read night after night of mods and info I definitely wanted to this one just enough to make me smile everytime I get in and take it for a spin. This fella is my one car for everything so I hope to make it as nice as I can afford to do it haha. Well enough of me blabbing on I'll get started. Here it is stock as a rock. By wangapooh at 2011-02-19 Buddyclub P1's I got off from JE-55-EA, cheers mate! By wangapooh at 2011-02-19 OEM Toyota Corolla S grill, I've always loved that grill and honestly on most of the other Toyota cars as well, Camry, Aurion, ZZE, etc. By wangapooh at 2011-02-19 Lastly I got the car lowered on Lovell Springs but what's happened is the guy who ordered the springs, he got super lows in the front and sport lows in the rears thinking the rears will settle. I did ask him to get both sport lows front and back but I now see the super lows being kinda impractical for me as I'm scraping a fair bit. I do drive carefully over humps lowered style but still no dice, worse is I'm a big fella and I drive most weekends with 4 people in it. He's ordered the normal ones for the front and I'll be getting them installed this Monday coming. But here's a pic of it's stance right now. By wangapooh at 2011-02-19 Sorry for the long post people I'm actually happy to post all this for all to see. :P Would love to hear from everyone what else I can do to it and again hope to put some more mods on this new fella of mine! Cheers Wang
  7. i would like to add as well my car does around 450kms on a full tank and the avg fuel consumption is around 9.4 more or less depending on how i drive. also wondering if that's how the car really is, i kinda expected better result but seeing the newer 2010-11 models the specs says 9.7 city urban driving, so does that mean i'm doing ok?
  8. I haven't gotten around to getting a bodykit on my car, still saving up for wheels and lowering but Talon do supply a full lip kit painted or unpainted. http://www.talonbodystyling.com.au/bodykit/toyota/toyota_corolla_zze122r_sedan_04_talon_jt.htm phat_azn told me they're Front lip $310 Side skirts $350 Rear Lip $350 all painted. Hope this helps.
  9. Hey Cuong, I can't remember, did you have TRD suspension pack before your coilies? That first link you gave us, it is for the American Corolla (Altis); which do not have a torsion beam at the rear, hence, will not fit ours. :( ah damn aye...but thanks for clearing that up for me
  10. facelift hatch hasn't grown onto me that quick but rear does look good though... but man i want those seats hugging my ***** :P
  11. sorry to hijack this thread but i was wondering if us version of the trd springs be different with the aus version? i've been checking out this website www.magauto.com and found the trd springs which seem to be cheaper compared to the higher price that of the aus version for the $169.15 USD and shipping is $50 USD on top i think. http://toyota.magauto.com/partlocator/index.cfm?action=MorePartInfo&PartID=882110&siteid=213710&catalogid=200 there's also the strut brace as well http://toyota.magauto.com/partlocator/index.cfm?action=MorePartInfo&PartID=766289&siteid=213710&catalogid=200 couldn't really find the exact part for shocks but going by the description on the other 2 parts it looks like they may fit our current zre152 models. can anyone shed some light on this and confirm? would be great if all works out wang
  12. Thanks for the replies guys, got in touch with phat_azn and he gave me great info on it.
  13. hey people, hope u can all help me out here alittle, i've been looking around for this type of bodykit, it's the lip kit of a toyota corolla s in america or corolla altis in asia... now i've done a search here but nothing relevant and also looked all over body kit places, internet/ebay. but it seems i can't find a direct dealer/retailer of it or if it's on ebay it's no posting overseas to here. could anyone lead me in the right direction to get this kind of kit style if it's even sold here or import it? thanks heaps in advance!
  14. thanks for replies fellas with the pic the fact is the car is kinda dirty gonna give it a wash if the weather turns out okay over the weekend and hopefully better shots for the gallery
  15. hey everyone, just like to introduce myself as a new member here on the toyota community. sydney sider from the liverpool area and i have recently bought a 2008 toyota corolla conquest sedan, auto and only 19,000kms on the clock which isn't too bad for what i paid. loving the car though, it's got great looks, all the creature comforts and awesome on fuel i couldn't ask for a better car really. and seeing the mods on these forums has given me the more enthusiasm to make the car look more unique and to my liking! tinted the windows over the weekend and definitely keeping in mind of future mods eg. wheels, audio, lowering. here's a pic the car taken from my phone on the way home just this afternoon thanks for reading my long post and hope to get to know everyone here. cheers!
