Northy

the CAI is your best bang/buck mod.

go see our mate bruce @ www.trdsales.com and pick up a TRD CAI will set you back around the $450 mark (depends on the exchange rate) there is a good 5+ kw right there. I was lucky and got 6kw going tonigh with a better filter so ill post results see this thread

the new grea knob is meant to be heavier then the old one someone explained in a preivious post that the increased weight helps with the gear box issues

talk to Danthuyer he is in the process of installing his

qkslvr beat me nuff said

just say that i drove like a granny for the first 500km :( am i able to reset the ECU so it can learn the error of my ways :D

On a sunny day....

haha :D fair enough

peekay34 can you post us a pic from a bit further back so we can see what the whole front of the car looks like.

Thanks Northy

pfft ill take him , I am asuming that the speedo was in MPH?

Or even Northy :P

he said 2ZZG not 1ZZESUPERSPECIALNORTHYEDITION geez get it right HAHA, cant wait to see the vid

its an 02 model with 03 plates if we are going to get picky :D and i was only 1kw off :P

hope so cause that means TRADE IN!!! YEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAAA

the new 04 Corollas seem to have more power then the 02 model, when i got mine done there was another Corolla there an 02 model and it got 78 (i think) it was about that. Other thing is that mine has just done 6000km and most of the dyno's around the forums have been done a bit later in life.

Blue_Sportivo_VVTLi: after looking into it more and talking to the guys that were doing the dyno, the new 2004 software Dynamics Software is a bit diff to the older ones so thats why we were thinking the results were dodgy but now Im pretty sure they are pretty spot on

Not trying to crash the party but didn't we mention before that dyno results will be more acurate if the car is dynoed on the same day same time same settings. I see that Northy got his car dynoed 3 weeks apart. It would be more accurate if you have the mod on site ready to be fitted after the initial baseline dyno. That way you minimise discrepencies. The CAI is still a great mod though and i have no doubt it improves horsepower and torque but how much is too difficult to tap.

I know this would be ideal but somtimes you just cant do it, as for the 5th gear it would be running the dyno @ over 220km/h prolly more??

unless you get an ECU upgrade ie unichip/power FC there is no need to tune the care. So unless you are really looking at spending some cash then there is really nothing that you can do. :(

about 12kw at the wheels :P

ill take two

this is it here I picked it up for half price @ autobarn for $80 (normally $160)

this is the chart when I ran it 100% stock

this is with a TRD CAI only using the TRD Filter (I will post a dyno with the K&N filter next week)

and for those that are interested here is a vid (17mb)

Thats right I am talking about the Sportivo.

you said you had one....well i want it I WANT IT NOW!! :D

a mate of mine posted it on some honda boards and they all went **** nuts haha it was quite a laugh

yeh i think we have all concluded that its a BS time lol but it still looks good :D still beat those 2zze's on papar tho haha

welcome mate, I am a self confessed sportivo wannabe haha and there is nothing wrong with a 1zze as most of the fellas will tell you.

does anyone have a copy of the helm manual for our cars?

**WTB** stivo gear knob. (yes i know it says 6+R and i only have 5 but its a nice knob) :D

was $73.50 for the day ( 9am-3am ) and we could have as many runs as we liked as there was only 70 cars, I went 13 times a few of the other guys with propper race cars went up to 25 times.
