SILVABULLIT

It also depends on the weather as well. :D

Mate I've set the standard. Now its up to others to better it ;)

Here's a few pics from the day courtesy of CoastCars.net Now all you TOCAU members who took piccies get em up !!! The Northy mobile JC's Behind Silvabullit's engine bay

hehehehe just saw that too. wei wei is down in the list as Willy for some crazy Wei Wei reason!!

Like the way the Hond's all had their bonnets open in awe of the Sportivo ready to do some chomping :P :P PS Wei Wei next time wash your wheels you grub :P :P :P :P

Go the turbo route on a 2zz and you'll easily sink 15k into it to make it strong and reliable. ;) After all 10k is roughly the cost of a replacement stock 2zz from Toyota(hey Northy!!)

If the tip doesn't at least come to the edge of the bumper you will get the black soot all over the bumper and after a while it will stain your paint. As for the burning smell it's just prolly paint etc burning off and nothing to worry about. It'll disappear in a day or 2. As for the the tip being crooked take back and tell them to fix it!!

I would but that would ruin the suspense Plus I'm sworn to keep it a secret ;)

What I said!!! Hdache, Northy etc etc the natives are getting restless

Is the vertical light green line the lift point??? Or is it for some other reason?? Also is the power on the rhs in kw or hp?? Enlighten us oh wise one!!! And when are you gonna turbo the blue meanie like this :P I mean it'd only cost a few bucks right???? ;)

Those with pictures......POST EM UP!!!!!

Ash has a 'black' car? Yep he did have a red one but having a case of indecisivness, he changed to black :P

After CES staff pulling the dyno apart to see what the problem could be it was then decided in the interest of everyone's safety that no more cars could be run on the dyno. Humble apologies to all who missed out but unfortunately it was an unforseen circumstance. In all a great day was had by all with an absolutely huge breakfast that consisted of sausages,eggs,bacon, fruit, pancakes, fruit juice,tea,coffee, soft drink and of course lollies. Again a big thank you to CES for having us and we all are looking forward to next year. Cheers Silvabullit :D Now I'm off to bed for a few hours of catch up sleep so don't call me Azza

Congrats mate and enjoy the possibility of some sleepless nights in the near future :P :P :D

Sorry kids i wnot be out as i have a car to get ready for saturday. Lots and lots of stuff to do and not a lot of time for sleep. If you want to call past my house and pay me a visit(not late) then give me a call. :D

Remember the 06 1zz have the breather pipe between the throttle body and the maf sensor for those wanting it for 1zz.

Life in crazy ol' Sydney town lol. If you missed then you should of reversed up again and finshed the job off properly hehehehehehe

Remember guys/girls that to enter the workshop at CES you will need to have ENCLOSED FOOTWEAR for workplace health and safety reasons. If you don't then you won't be able to enter and have to stay outside :(

King Springs are not the same as Lovells. As for Pedders springs they are King springs painted RED!!! How do I know you ask???? I know someone who works for King springs ;) Eibachs are a lot more expensive over the rest as they aren't made here. But as far as Spring Prices as concerned - Kings lows $220 Installation - $150 Wheel Alignment $50 This is pretty much the average of what it costs in Brisbane anyway. Between $380 - $450. Or get someone from the forum to fit them for you who was the correct tools to do the job. I've done too many sets to remember and it isn't really that hard. The only problem with suspension shops doing it is that they almost always break clips on your boot trim cause they pull it out incorrectly.

OOOHHH so when are you driving up to Brisbane to pay us a visit then ???????????????

You have to use the springs supplied as the spring retainers are machined to fit the springs in the kit. They are a kit that you simply weld the sleeve over your standard strut with the thread on it and use the top mount and there you have a coilover of sorts where you can easily adjust the height but not dampener etc unless you use Koni sports struts. Be careful as welding struts can make the oil inside heat up and also can affect the operation of the valving etc with the intense heat. Not something to attempt at home!!(unless your Rollamods ;) :P )

Weatheralls smash repairs are a suncorp recommended repairer at Windsor behind Maccas on Lutchywe rd. Have used them before and they are very good and are in fact one of the nominated BMW/Merc/Porsche repairers.

With the price of fuel these days a SSS Pulsar isn't worth the $1.30-40 a litre (in Brisbane) to show them just what the back of my car looks like.

Very sorry to hear that Trevor. :( the boot doesn't have a sensor that i can see to trick unlike the other doors so I would be turning the interior light off and just using the key to unlock. Sensor must be in the catch or something like that.

Going down into 2nd from 90 is quite harsh, at least rev match the car so you dont get a sudden *****. Cant be too good for the car in the long run. Having the stivo for quite a while, it does sometimes feel impractical. Having to rev so much to get moving, everyone thinks you are a hoon. More torque would have been more practical for everyday driving. But being able to rev it up is a perk that you dont experienece on every car. The right mods in the right places eliminates the need for a lot of revs to get it moving. There are some very good manufacturers out there that make stuff for the Sportivo that increase torque at lower RPM and make the car even better to drive than it already is. B) Do your research on products based on what you require not how much noise or whether or not it has the fancy tuner name brand attached to it. :D
