  1. Hi all. I have a new Conquest with full power windows. The rear controls on a factory fit look nothing like the pitcures here. They are mounted into the arm rests just below the handle. In the front they are mounted on the drivers door with the front controls. I'd post a pic but have no idea how. Sorry.
  2. I've scratched mine too. Have't replaced it yet. It will cost about $75 from toyota and just screws on with about 3 or 4 screws. Shouldn't be too hard.
  3. MUGEN are set to release a MUGEN spec Civic Type R in the states. It has a claimed 197kw . Not to be released in oz just yet.
  4. Mate, do as everyone has said, take it to WSID, flog your car as much as you want, get the time slip and post your times. The proof is in the pudding.
  5. I don't understand, redline in the new model is 6400 and you say your doing 6700 and not changing gears at redline. What revs are you doing in 1st before you change to 2nd. I know toyotas are very reliable but are you on a mission to trash your brand new car.
  6. Cat and muffler are combined just behind the motor. The coke bottle you are talking about is just a resontor. Good luck removing the muffler without upsetting your warranty. I haven't heard of a 2ZR reving to 6700 rpm yet, you must be really pushing its boundries or really ringing its neck.
  7. The new 07 2ZR Corolla is spec at 100kw, 136hp at 6000rpm with 175Nm of touque at 4400rpm.
  8. Sorry my bad, was lookin at Japanese specs. Still don't think 7.5 is acheiveable.
  9. I own the new corolla. I don't know about the 7.5 sec mark. The new car is heavier than the old with slightly more power, which would proberly put them on par. The electronic throtle wouldn't help either.
  10. Street Machine Mag did an article on this topic of people movers a few years ago. It proved the tarago can pull between 14.5 and 15.0 sec quater mile times constantly. There were also several other vans in this test as well. It showed and proved that people movers are one of the quickest passenger vehicles produced. Moral of this story is not to call up a ****** off mum at the lights with a van full of 10year old soccer brats cause you may get a surprise
  11. Hey enjoy your new corolla. I have the Conquest model and have done around 4500. Opened it up around the back roads the other day 160kmh at 4400 revs. Very stable and smooth.
  12. The new corolla has the 2ZR engine. It produces 100kw at around 6000rpm (136hp). I have the Conquest model and it costs me around $460 annually (with 60% no claim bonus and over 25) with Elders Insurance. Hope this helps in your quest. :D
  13. Subaru World Rally Team launch their new STI Rally car a last month in Japan and it's a hatch. Looks fatter than the WRX.
  14. Auto Salon Magazine, issue 60, page 32, at your local newsagency now for all your auto goss. My wife thinks its nice and wants to buy one, not my cup of tea though. It looks like a stretched out civic.
  15. Toyota actually own 9% of Fuji Heavy Industries which is the parent company of Subaru. They are planning on combining a Toyota vehicle with a Subaru motor and AWD in the future.
  16. I own an '07 Hatch but also drove the sedan when I was lookin'. To me they drive the same, but thats my opinion. As for fuel consumption, there is not much difference. It will depend on how you drive it. Don't know much about the golf clubs fitting but my boss keeps calling it a golf cart, maybe he knows something I don't.
  17. SAAS produce locknuts with different keying combinations. I have not seen one key the same yet. I have these on my car for this reason. I got mine from Uncle Bob when I got my wheels.
  18. What sort of muffler did you fit. Did you replace the original cat/muffler box or just the resonator at the back. Can you show me some pics.
  19. I have an 07 Conquest and like that spoiler. Let us know how you go.
  20. RIP Colin. You will aleays be remembered.
  21. I own a 07 conquest hatch. I have only added wheels so far. I have looked into exhaust mods but the new corolla has a totally new system compared to the last model. The cat and muffler are combined into one unit with a resinator at the back. The guys at the exhaust shop said the actual muffler may have to be modified, this may than hurt the warranty. Let me now if you work something out with the exhaust.
  22. I have a 07 Conquest and it definately dosn't have reverse beepers. :)
  23. Hi. My names Daniel. Live in Wagga. Just pruchased a new 07 Conquest Hatch. New wheels on the way soon. Hopefully a new exhaust when I can work the new system out.
