Definition of efficiency:

Producing higher outputs utilising less inputs, without foregoing quality (from economics hehe )

So for engines I guess this means using less fuel to produce more power (maybe without foregoing torque or poor gas emissions?)

But yes I think the automotive definition of efficiency is centered on fuel use, and gas emissions.

I've been reading up on the 2FZ-FE engine that is going into these things (1.8L) as the replacement for th 1ZZ-FE. Duel VVTi sounds good :)

Isn't it called the 2ZR-FE?

Stay in school! Say no to Drags!

(Its a good thing I've only got a 1ZZ (less temptation))

Yea I saw in the supercheap auto brochure parts so that you can DIY the SRI or CAI... I was thinkin hmm that could b somethin I could do after the HSC wen I get bored...

pfft i didint powercoat my rims -_- siy spray can yo!!

Won't that eventually flake???

Spotted

Hey sorry bit off topic but are you studying to become a CA, cos I've got a cadetship in accounting for next year with Grant Thornton (an accounting firm), so I will eventually become a CA. hehe good to see others around ;)

there you go :D

Thanks matey I owe u 1 ;) :D

i think he means he's got the actually brochure in his hands

yep... I can scan it in for you in a couple of minutes :)

Thanks man (if its not too much trouble) ;)

Hello just want some clarification.

The preface lift 1ZZE's pulls out 100kW power where as the facelift 1ZZE's has 93kW.

From that:

1. Does that mean my preface lift 1ZZE is faster and thus will smash the facelift 1ZZE?

And

2. Why did toyota pull back the kW to 93 on the facelift models? (Save on materials? Regulation?)

Cheers

Its not all facelifts so don't go drag every facelift u see at sets of lights its just October 2005 and later produced vehicles (facelifts started production sometime in 2004 if my memory serves me right)

EDIT: Sorry BigBum I replied at the same time as u

mmm i love that bishop blue colour... why didnt they bring stivos out in that!!

I know... but since it;s a factory colour, it's easy to match ;)

colour codes are all right here guys...

Corolla specs PDF from Toyota

That doesn't cover some of the older colours that were discontinued e.g. Silver Glaze/Silver Metallic which is paint code 199

as far as I can tell that's the only one missed...

other colours are here http://corolla.toyota.com.au/TWR/content/static/13061.pdf in the sedan specs...

or here http://corolla.toyota.com.au/TWR/content/static/13062.pdf for the wagon...

FYI, I have the original sportivo brochure in front of me and the colours are

Glacier White (040)

Silver Glaze (199)*

Ink (209)*

Lucifer (3E5)

Cascade Blue (8P4)*

* = metallic paint

sorry I do not have a regular Corolla brochure

Have u got the pdf version of the pre-facelift sportivo (or anyone) I'm interested to have a look through.

So, I get to put on 87 tires as my tyre placard says 84 or above, but your tyre placard says 88 or above?

I have a 2002 Toyota Corolla Ascent MY03. Was built in Sept 2002.

Mate I can't remember the dates of when it changes, but all you have to rememba is to follow ur tyre placard (which in your case is 14" and 84H load rating) (so yes you can go 87). Also remember there are other rules which must be abided by e.g. tyre must be within 15mm either way of ur stock ROLLING diameter, you cannot go further than 2 inches smaller/larger in the height of ur rim (so in ur case the max size wheels you can get is 16 inch), or 1 inch wider (I don't know what stock width ur rim is, I would say it is 5 or 6 inch (mine is 6 inch). there is probably other rules but I can't rememba them. Just do a search on this forum as well as talking to the relevant people (e.g. tyre fitters) about other legalities.

Team SILVER... Raise the roof!

And this has big affect in reality as a mate of mine with a Holden Astra had his insurance claim voided/rejected purely on the fact that his tyres were under-rated. He had 87's instead of the standard 88 that he should've had.

Did he have the same tire just 87 not 88? Or was it on a different rim?

I ask as the tyre placard on the Corolla Ascent has 84 or above, or 500kg per tyre or above on it.

I just went to Discount Tyre's to get a quote, he said it would be legal.

Also the load rating on my Steel 14" is 84, yet on the 15" Alloys its 88.

I got a quote for Dunlop 3000A (205/50/r16 87v) for $220 a corner fitted.

From pre-sometime in 2001 or 2002 corollas had the 14" rim with tyres rated at 84, but after then they were all 15" with 88 rated tyres (I've got the 15" 88 rated ones :( )

yeh... they come in 4 stud also :)

Niiice... I like the 2nd set personally ;) ;) ;)

crap crap crap.

Did I mention this car is crap? Well not the car, the pricing. Ive already done a post about this one how mitsubishi has totally missed its pricing on this. $29990 + onroads is way too much for such a small package. Its competitors are better priced - Polo GTI @ $26990 and Swift sport @ $23990. Mitsubishi have priced this close to the clio sport cup when the clio is still miles ahead, especially when the next model will pack 152kW.

Also looks cr@p!

Looks like it wasn't Lowndes that stopped Skaife.

Yea it was that F*CKING clutch

now that you guys have decided for me... do i see contributions to the "becs wheels fund"? hahahaha jokes :P

i have been lookin... well only been to one place hahahaha and seen only 2 thats i liked..

This is the KSpeed wheel... its black and some gun metal colour..

This is the HP Design that im not real keen on anymore coz i have seen a million cars with these!

but yeh as i said ive only looked at one place :P

1 problm... they r 5 stud not 4 like ours (unless they also come in 4 stud)

I dont know of anyone from the forum who is going back anytime soon! I was looking at facelift jdm style lights in SA but they expensive.

Will let you know if i know of anyone going back

Thanks buddy, would really appreciate it ;) :)

mate iv just come back from SA! :)

I know the jdm style headlights come standard on the preface lift models. And are cheap to get 2nd hand.

R u or any1 u noe goin bak there sometime soon??? I would really appreciate it, if some1 could maybe come to an arrangement to bring me bak a set frm a wreckers over there (N I'll reimburse u as well as givin u a box of beer or somethin like that :) ;) :) ;) )

So any1 who is goin to South Africa soon (or lives there) feel free to PM me. Thanks heaps in advance guys :)

i think the only thing thats gonna stop skaife/tander is car trouble, if they have a reliable car i think they will be out infront at the end of the day.

One other thing that could stop them... Lowndes (damn it I hope he doesn't but I reckon he will for his old mentor (Brocky))

an alpine mono block i worth 400, well the 700watt one anyways

O soz I must hav looked at the more expensive one in my catalogue (there was only a 700w and 1000w)

Up to you man... but if it was me I'd b a tight-a$$ n talk him down to like 600 or so + a few beers and buy it! :D :D :D
