Interesting read, can't wait for the final product

Pm'd

My mate has them on the car and doesn't like or has any use for it. So he's giving them to me if it fits our car.

Now that is a crazy build. Good job!

Would anyone know if the 2013 corolla hatch roof rack, will fit a corolla sportivo 2005??

Because FKVTEC.

like I said, it came from off a sportivo and if you want the exhaust to sit striaght instead of a angle then u will need a new flange.

Meguiar & Mothers sell headlight restoration kit at supercheap/autobarn etc,will have everything inside the box to make the yellow haze go away. cheaper alternative is tooth paste ( sounds stupid but it actually works)

check out kings wrecker located in Fairfield, they should have them.

exedy heavy duty clutch FTW. standard clutch for our cars are rubbish.

At the bottom of the sill panel (where your going to put the side skirts) is there a black plastic thing on the ascent?If yes take that off, there should be 3 to 4 black round plastic clip holding it in. U can use them to hold up the side skirts if you don't want to use sikaflex. Cause I remember looking underneath of a ascent at work and sportivo has the same holes from memory.

Correct, remember to put 2 x 10mm bolts on front wheel arch and 2 x10mm on rear arch.

thank Rich :D another UPDATE : TRD front strut brace,To me it doesn't really do much and can't feel any difference. Only left it on cause it says TRD hehehe. Also ordered BC BR coilovers and got them installed. Didn't like the height as it was still to high so went a tad bit lower. I've been seeing so many sportivo with matt/gloss black stock wheels,so i thought why not do something that people don't really have and i came up with this bronze. The colour came from a BMW paint code which was the closest i can get to the jap rims (eg rays,te37 ). I also added more brown to the paint to make it a darker brown. DIY it myself with a mate helping me sand them down 600 wet and use red scotch bright with paste. Sprayed 2 coats of color and 1 coat of clear. (note:these were all done a while ago,thought i share it :D )

LOL im sure my first time it took me longer :) thanks Defyant. LOL,i'm sure your really quick at it now hehe.. just wondering do you use the oven to take them apart??

it's been way to long since i've posted here. Thought i'll update my ride since i've got a new computer LOL. Since now i've added eyelids, black housing, trd front strut brace, DBA front rotors, bronze stockies and power fc. 1. eyelids, once i brought them off Demonrolla and tested them on, the shape of the eyelids were out of line,so i sanded the edges to line them up and also got them primered at work. I then decided to paint them two tone so it can match with my bonnet and guard. the first layer of paint i put down was the black then masked up half way the black and sprayed the blue. 2.black housing. This was one of the hardest mods i did and im never doing it again. It took me 6 hours to do both headlight (note: get someone to help you it will be much quicker). Use a heat gun at the bottom part of the headlight, slowly heated it up and use a flat head screw driver to start plying it. After i got the lens off, i mask up the chrome part where the indicator was and sprayed the rest black using a spray can. After a few mintue of drying putted everything back together.also added extra silicone around the edges incase of leak. FINAL RESULT

im not the expert but the crack on the stock air box could be causing it .only reason i say this is because i had a crack in my one also which made the accerleration crap(from 2krpm to 3krpm). Also when a/c is on,it uses more power and will make the car slower.

If you have spare time,patient and know abit of electrical wire,then you can DIY it yourself. Check out this site http://www.theretrofitsource.com/ I know someone who's done it themself and was told the hard part was the wiring, but once it was finish it look bloody hot and unique.

OMG that is Heart Wrenching to say the least. who would be so Evil to key any one's door, but nothing shocks me these days as i seem to find myself losing a Battle trying to keep my Halo Scratch free. i not go to the movies all the time but when i do i try to park it up the top where the Cinema's are & park right in front of the front Doors leading into the Cinema. that way your Car is in full View not to mention i have my Camera Recording ;) people today are so God damn Jealous that they will do just about anything & everything to make you suffer. to me these are Heartless Poor excuses for a Human Being & when my favorite Wheel Caps get stolen that just sets me off as i mean they are only wheel caps but think they want to take much more. You see i am having Painted Mags & think they wanted to take them but found out they can't be taken you need an allen Key & not to mention they are tightly screwed on. so i do feel for you & your G'F & maybe next time you can park it where is going to be in full view of people, but then you only have a Yaris WTF ;) I can't really pin point who did it. 1.could be kids that hang around the movies 2.low life people That day it was packed so I had to park it outside where the shopping carpark was.+ 1 on jealous people but I guess there not much you can do unless you end up finding who did it. What kind of camera do you have in the car? Might invest in some. On a good note lucky I'm a spray painter so I will be preparing everything at home and use my work booth for the final touch. Only a yaris but that day I was lazy to drive manual so my sportivo didn't come out or else bye bye sportivo. Sadly without a Video Surveillance Camera you are Screwed, Yes Kids will do just about anything & everything these days & especially things that not belong to them. think no 2 you got that right as that is exactly who they are & it's also my saying. Yes there are many Low life's out there who are so God Damn Jealous that it gets me so Cross knowing good every day hard working People are having their Pride & Joys Scratched & what ever else. OMG you are a Spray Painter well than that would definitely come in handy as i can only imagine just how much that would have Cost. i only go to one Spray Painter here in Cairns as they also deal with Toyota & not to mention they do me a deal Sorry about my last Comment i was Only Joking when it comes to any one's Cars being Vandalized i feel the Pain & know exactly what you are feeling even though is only a scratch. Thank God The Sportive Stayed at home or else they would have had a Party even though there are many Security Camera's out there, there is only 1 that i find will do the Job & Keep your Baby safe. now before i forget here is everything you need to know if you are wishing to have that Camera i wouldn't be without it Dual Camera HD 720P Vehicle DVRDual 180° Left-Right Rotatable 120° Ultra Wide Angle Lens 2.7" TFT LCD Screen + SOS Button IR Remote Control + HDMI & AV Out Motion Detection & Cycle Recording One button for night/day mode switching Ebay When the Engine Start the Camera will turn on Automatically that's if you are having it plugged into the outlet or cigarette lighter place. Sorry for the colored writing i copied & pasted the details up above & now is going a little crazy also with my Halo i had to have the battery wired up so that my Camera will switch on even if the car is not running but you must have the Battery rewired to be able to do that. as i work job of an evening i was finding that the Camera's Battery Life was not lasting the 4 hours or more & now i am all set to go my Camera is always ready no need to Charge. with this type of Camera also many sellers are selling it on E-bay & they are all different prices you will have to take a look so that you can see which one will be the Cheapest. Good Luck hope you get that Camera you won't regret it. Hehe all good Sonia. I actually can't wait to start preparing the car,just have to wait abit since I'm using my mates house LOL. Thanks heaps for the information about the camera :)

Ok,2 weeks ago me and my gf decided to go watch a movie at stockland mall weatherill park. We parked her yaris and went to watch the movie,when the movie was over and we went back to the car, the side door didn't look right. I went to have a closer look only to find out some doosh bag keyed the rear door all the way to the guard. What made it worse was it was both side of the car and the front bar. Like common it's a standard yaris,not a Ferrari or what's so ever.

Save up for a better box jake,thats what I'm doing.

Your DIY on headlights always amaze me.they look hot,good job.

I had a similar problem a few months back,my water pump leaking and it was dripping onto the belts causing it to squeak.(mostly happen during the morning/cold start or low speed) got it change and now it's fine,but now I've got another noise and I think it's my rotor.
