Sportivo VVTL-i

I dont know a great deal about rims etc.... but if u've done the wheel balancing and alignment, then i guess the last thing you could do is check your actual new rims.... maybe they're "buckled".... you might want to look into it...

I havent done the alignment yet as i dont think it would help with the shaking problem.

I got the rims second hand and by looking at it, it doesnt look like its buckle. What else can i do to see if the rims is buckle or not?

I've recently put on aftermarket rims 17x7.5 +42 with tire size 205/45ZR17, I noticed that that when I’m driving on the freeway the steering wheel would shakes. At first I thought the wheels is out of balance so I went to Bob Jane and got it rebalanced but the problem still exist. After much researched on the internet I found out that with aftermarket rims I need to put on hub rings so the wheels would sit more centered. So today I went to the tires factory and got the hub rings put in but when I was driving home on the freeway the steering wheel still shakes. Does anyone know how I can solve this problem? It’s driving me nuts btw I’m driving a 2005 corolla sportivo.

Corolla GTR FTW!!

if you want something strong go to bunnings and buy some 3M weatherstrips...or something like that. cant exactly remember the name but its really strong double sided tape.

Yeah i just done mine yesterday afternoon, i got the clear 3M Heavy duty double sided tape from bunnings. It seemed to hold up pretty good

Just received mine today :D

Will this make any different to the car or is it just for 'RICE' factor? Has anyone tested and shows that it will improve from stock?

Hey luke, does the rear lip come with the mesh for those holes or do you have to buy it and put it yourself?

Hey Luke, how much did you get your eyelids painted for? and is Bostik Gold permenent? what if you want to take it off. Seeing you already stuck the eyelids on im asuming you wont do the black headlights suround mod.

Good write up mate

Good stuff John...It look like a fun day. I would go if i have the whole track to myself, im too much of a ***** driver to be on the track with everyone else. Did Thanh take his starlet?

Welcome mate,

26324kms on the clock....thats pretty damn low. Nice buy

very good turn out, theres so many sportivos there today. I dont think i was very talkative...so i didnt really get to know everyone but other than that it was a good meet.

good job Alex

Nice write up T.J

JDM ftw

Good job john, now you can do it for my car

Just paid $275 for my rear bumper (unpainted) about 2 weeks ago.

Does the rear bumper come with brackets and screws when bought it? or it just the bumper itself.

TRD SS - What's that?? Does SS stands for stainless steel???

SS stands for short shifter...i think...i could be wrong

Next is to check if anyone has an un-used K & N filter that can be sold to me as I'm quite tight at the moment to buy a brand new one. Posting to melbourne ;)

silvabullit got one for sale, have a look in the buy & sell section...im sure he can give a good price on it

Oh, another thing.

What is CAI ?

Theres a group buy on TRD CAI at the moment, you might want to look in to it instead of buying the K&N filter and modifying your air intake box
