  1. the do not have to be ADR approved to be sold here in Aus, go down to Autobarn and see how much stuff they sell that has in very small print "for competetion use only) you will be surprised, so just because you can buy it over the counter at the shops does not automatically mean its ADR approved.
  2. just to clarify somthing you said runx, just because they are sold in AUS does NOT mean they are ADR approved, even if on your insurance policy and they are not ADR approved then you are up **** creek.
  3. and just say you got rear ended they could use that as a good excuse not to pay for the damage on your car.
  4. bob thats the workshop manual, its not in there, he needs the wiring diagrams for the sportico corolla and the celica.
  5. there is no camber adjustment on the rears :(, to combat the tyre wear i rotate my from tyres from side to side every 10,000k's
  6. ok guys you both need to let this go before another threads comes to a premature end.
  7. thats normal, when you lower a car the wheels gain negative camber (top of the wheel leans in) the lower you go the more camber you will get. more camber = better turn in, im running -2 on the fronts
  8. hate to break it to you, but parts for the sportivo are not avalible locally in Aus on demand, if you want somthing 9/10 times you will have to get it from outside Aus. i would suggest having a look in this thread, http://au.toyotaownersclub.com/forums/inde...p?showtopic=663
  9. the TRD ones will cost you no more then $1300 shipped RuNx your exhuast did that include custom headders in the $970 price?
  10. just thinking, it would not sound like a ferrari? and thats half the fun..
  11. sounds like you need to take charge mate :P, the stiffer engine mounts have not made much diff to noise/vibrations, they have made the car better to drive tho
  12. i wonder what lotus recomends/uses in the Exige/Elise 111R ?

    Wheel Nuts

    is there a listed torque setting for the wheel nuts?
  14. are they VVTL-i stickers? nice clean ride mate :D
  15. bob, i had a 1zz rolla with Lovells super lows (65mm drop) my ground clearence was the same as my Sportivo with low kings, hope that makes sence
  16. um wtf is this all about lol, we are talking cars not outlook database recovery apps
  17. when i still had the 1zz i ran some Mobile Gold 0W-40 just to see if it made any diff, atm in the 2zz i run mobile gold 10W-40
  18. lows, if you go super lows you will limit your rim/tyres choices also you will have very little ground clearence
  19. as buddah mentioned the stock cat is fine, when i had the 1zz i was told the same thing buy a few diff places.
  20. that guys has no idea how to drive an AWD car, you dont counter steer, if you do thats what happenes
  21. sorry no pics with the bride etc as they were running late as usual :P, bride saw silva's car and said i want 2 more, she has good taste :P
