  3. Be out to pick up some green backs from you Micky...... Plus to say hello to everyone as well!!
  4. Some info for all the noobs out there...... Sportivo corolla's sit about 10-15mm higher than a stock ascent. Stupidity of Toyota's brains trust!! Now if you put superlows in the rear the car will sit level if you have lows in the front. I am talking about Kings springs. Pedders springs are made by dobinsons springs which dont have the greatest reputation in the automotive suspension industry for quality. Springs do not sag or settle with time. Suspension bushes do!! The only way spring heights will change is if they weren't installed in the spring perches properly in the first place. Seen it done many times LOL By using super lows in the rear the car will sit level. I tested the theory waaay back in the dawn of time for Sportivo's and had the car properly measured etc etc. It gives roughly a 2-4mm difference front to rear. The will handle better if you have it set up properly. Putting super lows on stock shocks will kill them in no time and you will have the bouncy bouncy ride and the back of the car wil dance to it's own tune. Low/superlow combo combined with say Koni's or for the budget oriented KYB's will perform nicely and give you a firim but nicely controlled ride which isn't obtrusive. As for using coilovers to get a car to sit level, how many people actually get them set properly and are using the right spring rates to control the ride heights???? My 2C SB :)
  5. CES port the headers you have or for your convienence you can do an exchange deal with them. the headers they do are ported and flowed, exterior is cleaned up and then HPC coated with a thermal protective coating. Give them a call if you are interested 07 3200 2333.
  6. Train sounds like a plan. I'll be there with some ultra racing goodness for you andrew!! See you around 9pm.
  7. Mt Yasur volcano on the island of Tanna Vanuatu Maheno shipwreck Fraser Island Fox Glacier south Island New Zealand
  8. Rear sway bar and front strut brace are the best thing you can do to a Sportivo that is used as a daily driver. Front sway only if you are plannning on hitting the track regularly otherwise enjoy understeer on the road!! If you are atfer prices let me know. Happy to help you out!!
  9. Sorry kids as DJ said I have to pull out of tonight's activities due to my parents flight from Hawaii being delayed. Was going to be like 7.30pm but now it is 9.45pm so seeing as I am picking them up I kinda have to be there. I spoke to DJ this morning and gave him the route i was going to take. Shouldn't be a late night for those concerned....

  12. lies :P sorry boys and girls but got a phone call about 20 minutes before I was about to leave and my wife's grandmother was literally gasping her last breath before passing away early friday morning so a stint at the nursing home by the bed was where I was on thursday night till quite late.... Hope this excuse is plausable for you young Mick!! You know when i say i am coming to a meet that i am almost always going to be there!!!!! Maybe this week i will try again as I have friday off work for the funeral.

  15. Custom Exhaust specialists could do your cage,exhaust etc etc. Give them a call for a price 3200 2333.
  16. Pretty sure there is no racing on saturday after about 5.30pm
  17. Go and watch some racing Phil especially the All motor class. No turbo's,superchargers or gas. My mate is running his VW Beetle. Yellow in colour just in case you miss it LOL As for the show cars please!! Most of the cars I saw last year apart from a few I am positive that my sportivo when I owned it was a totally better presented car and as far as clean goes there is a lot of people who need to learn how to clean their car properly. I would be embarrassed at the standard of some of the cars I saw cause they should of been parked in the carpark.....
  18. Price the head to be replaced or fixed. Are you sure the head gasket is blown? Could be the fan hub that has died cause My 3.0L had the fan hub die and the radiator core was goen as well. they way you describe the overheating is just how mine started.
  19. CES actually have a CAI for the ZRE's almost completed but nobody could supply a car to see the job finished. So it could be your lucky day mate!! As for exhaust systems CES do top shelf work and will custom make a set of headers and a system to suit the car and improve the power not just improve the noisepower. Give Trevor a call and let him know you are from TOCAU and are after the above items... CES 07 3200 2333
  20. I'm laughing hard even though I wasn't there cause I know the hijinks that goes on at Aqua Golf!!
  21. Northy's car is full as i have 3 boys from Vanuatu who want a little bit of Fast and furious tokyo Drift!! They know nothing about cars apart from watching the movies. When I explained to them about going up the mountain like in the movie they were all in agreeance that they wanted to come and have a ride. Of course North was ever so obliging to offer his services...... ;)
