MY22ZZ

15k i was cheering

i was soo close to getting one but ive just sold my sportivo :(

but its okay because im buying another one

gents im sorry that this build thread has to end so soon but yesterday i sold my sportivo i only owned it for 6 months but i had a young gun come along yesterday and give me an offer i couldnt refuse.............however, i am now looking for a white one :D or another black one with no dings or scratches or warped panels

thankyou all for watching this thread. i will be back soon

not too sure about the tyres but i highly recommend some enkei GTC 01's or some Work Emotion CR KAI's

ive been in my mates sportivo which just had a no name brand exhaust and muffler and it went very well and lift kicked in alot harder than mine did. im guessing that yours wasnt installed properly?

i reckon the stock muffler is good looking, polished it up a bit with some metal polish and looks great.

and yes im always on the hunt for goodies, always wanted the CES but from what you have to say i dont think im gonna travel down that road haha

maybe try varex exhaust? its half the price aswell. muffler looks very similar too

Lol sounds like its killing ya you make it sound bad

My car is so much louder since I put the engine mount inserts, might be just the vibration trough the whole car and the panels are about to fall off haha, that and I do have abit of exhaust work and cai,

Can you record it while driving and post us ??!!

It is bad haha! I'm not being a drama queen either, I used to drive a civic with fart cannon on it and the CES resonates way more than that! The torque down low has reduced slightly i think which makes it even worse when i'm trying to accelerate in 4th or even 3rd during normal day driving.. the acceleration is slower so i have to live with more resonation from the exhaust. And don't get me started on hills..

I haven't got a recording but I am thinking of taking the exhaust off and replacing it with the stock one again... how much more restrictive is the stock exhaust compared to the performance exhaust?... Because there honestly wasn't any difference at all between them when driving. And what would be the difference if the car was tuned with stock exhaust + headers and CAI, compared to with a performance exhaust?

Thanks!

are you the one selling the exhaust on gumtree already after 1 week? hahaha

the exhaust has been especially designed for the corolla sportivo 2zzge engine and has shown significant gains in most cars, not too sure as to why alex's is soo bad??

+1 for checking oil and maybe having a few stops to let the engine have a rest haha

loving the paddy basher!! i have one me self, it an old school rolla, not sure what model or series but no windows, no zorst, bald tyres, rust everywhere but its the best fun:D its also a 5 speed manual that has to be push started haha

the best car i have ever driven is a 420KW atw BMW M3 Supercharged by G-Power with Remus Exhaust and Full Carbon Fibre Body. I would upload some pics of the car but cbf so i found a look alike on google lol

looks almost the same except it has M3 GTS wheels and is alpine white.

VERY VERY quick car for your P's

Isn't the master key the same as the service/valet key? I purchased my corolla with only that key as the previous owner had lost/broken the other 2 remote ones, I then had to go to toyota to get 2 new ones which I got cut by a locksmith and then programmed by some computer guy.

You can get aftermarket transponders and they will cost you around 90

I'm no expert on exhausts but maybe throw another resonator in there? Not sure if it will decrease performance though?

I'm also looking at an exhaust and I found a guy who might part out with his sportivo, he also has a CES exhaust and said that there was no drone?

I'm guessing your one needs running in? Haha

How long have you had the CES exhaust installed on your car? Because I read on one of the threads somewhere on here that one guy had it installed and hated it and said that there were no gains at all, but then he said that over time of around 6 months, the car slowly began to get stronger and he noticed alot of gains

Ive done it on my 05 stivo, relatively easy, Kenshin X has done it, as has trdrolla on his build thread

i also get that rattle in the windows but only my drivers side window when its about 100mm down, it doesn't rattle because of the engine, it rattles when the music is on about 30, and its only the stock system. not sure how to fix it? maybe the channel rubbers that the windows slide in?

i just called xforce themselves and 2 other suppliers and the RRP is 110 and thats the best they could do. ive seen it advertised on ebay for 80? does anyone know where else i can get one?

will do :) just wanted to check because i had seen them on ebay a while ago

hi all, just pruchased a varex muffler however the conrtol module/unit wasnt working 100%, does anyone know where i can get a replacement control unit that operates the flap in the muffler.

cheers

Please recommend Mechanic/Workshop/Penal Beater in NSW -> Canterbury/Campsie/Belmore area.

Want to fix oil leak onto exhaust and eventually make a hole in exhaust + and brakes/suspension changes.

Tunehouse in Marrickville

tunehouse are good but very very expensive. i was quoted 2k for a catback exhaust on my corolla sportivo. and that wasnt even stainless steel!!!

ohhhh yes now i understand. so this job is turning out to be a little more than i initially thought.

okay nice, hopefully he sees this and can give us a hand. not too sure what the fly by wire steering is?

but these tte corollas look awesome, would love to get one is aus.

its the TTE ( toyota team europe) supercharger. this one is used and wants 1000 pounds which is around 1500 AUD but then there is shipping ontop.

theyre the stock standard spotivo rims, i think the specs are 16x6 with +45 offset.

there are some for sale on gumtree with brand new rubbers. have a look

the powersteering assembly? is it in the way? has daniboy installed this into his car before?

this would do me very nicely

a supercharger kit :D
