Cougs

hihi

I did a defensive/advance driving course yesterday, and they recommend road tyres to be 40psi for all sizes, to reduce tire flexing (from a purely safety point of view)

I will dig out the notes later about why it should be 40PSI

Another thing is, when you pump your tyres, use your own PSI-meter, because the one at the servo is inaccurate (you will notice it if you get 3 separate readngs using the same meter, it will most probably show different values each time

just to answer some quick questions

You need a CAMS licence, which you get on the day

You dont need a full body suit, just long pants long sleeve shirt etc.

Helmet, no you cannot hire, you have to provide your own

we want to reach phillip island by 7am, so we can register early

specators welcome, providing you come in the morning

by late morning they wont let you in

The track day @ phillip island is held on 21st to 22nd August

More information about the premeets (will be a big turn out) will be posted later

If you want to race on the day... I can get more info

i just dont have them on me atm

drag.... i dunno.. done it once, once is enough :P

I wouldnt mind doing track though

going up to phillip island race track (PIARC day) 21st-22nd August... if anyone wants more info about that lemme know and i'll post it up

love the dual brembo's!

how far can you lower it before it gets to bumpstop?

and Danz, do you have aftermarket shocks?

New wheels definitely look the goods!

Peekay's old sportivo wheels are now on my echo... im verrryyy happy, they make a huge diference over the 14" stockies, and also grip a lot better than he 15s i previously have had.

gawd you smell

Had no idea bro. But this is what i get. Genie 4-2-1 header, new resonator and new muffler plus the chrome tips, all for 650 bucks inc fittings. The std header is 4-1 set up, never knew that.

good stuff Danz! :) :)

did you get new piping as well? ie 2.25" cat back piping etc.?

hehe i choose side air bags

because.... i wouldn't have been hurt so much if I had them in my last car... if you know what i mean

:(

I too have a full exhaust system in plan. According to XtigerX who used to have Levin, he installed Hurricane headers and Lukey cat back, power was about 85kw at the wheel.

So Cougs, wanna look together?

thanks for the replies guys... so no one knows if it's stock 2.25"? I seriously doubt it anywayz

thanks for the offer TRD_141, might take you up on that

and Danz... yer let's go to box hill exhaust? I'm a bit busy atm... but see how we go :P

btw Danz is your plates SAU xxx? (sorry am I allowed to post that?)

If that was you, I drove behind you down Burke Road yesterday (friday night), but I turned off into the Monash Freeway

what do you do about the side airbag?

I havent had time to go to the exhaust shop to get this checked out, but some riceboy told me he got an aftermarket muffler fitted only, because the 1ZZ-FE corolla had 2.25" piping (he wasn't specific)

Is that true? I thought cars like Type R's come with 2", and standard corollas would come with 1.5"-1.75" piping

Can anyone provide me with some insight? thanks :)

um I forgot what happened... me really sick atm

nice to meet some people... Scott, Sport1vo, Jackie, marcus

hehe nice one richi

who else goes to Monash? I do

they just put the tint film over my stickers vvti and security/theft. they do not need to remove it.

Did any bubbles show up around the edges of the sticker?

not mine

went right over it

Pecker got 15.88 in his sportivo

I ran 16.28 in my levin

hi there

I've got a black corolla levin, and I've got 20% tint all round

the VVTi sticker didnt make a difference in the tinting

i've had the tint for 2.5 years now

wow that front bar is nice

is that the stock new front bar, or an aftermarket? (i'm a newb dont mind me)
