Looks like the Exedy (Japan performance part manufacturer ) OEM or HD is the best fit from the comments about 200-300 AUD. But need to get a factory (toyota) flywheel to fit it. And the labour is about 300-450 AUD. To get the hardware is easy today, hunting a machanic is hard, if you rely on dealer from the car born like me.
I think I will get a Exedy OEM one, since my sportivo engine is old, I guess a heavy duty one will consume more engine life. Is that make sense? If it is not, I would like to try the HD one :)
I found something may help for people search Exedy dealer http://www.exedy.com.au/australian-distributors

Wow
Honestly, don't take offence, but if that's how you describe a slipping clutch "high revs no power" it's poor grammar man.. Or poor choice of words
When u say lack of power usually means driveline is fine but the power has decreased..
Slipping clutch is best described "drive my car in first but the front wheels don't spin but rpm is high and cultch is disengaged "
Sorry for the misleading in words.
I have seen you from the following topic, . Could you can give me some advise about a clutch replacement in VIC. The people said toyota genuine part is not good =.=" I am confused...
-
Is it a manual? clutch might be slipping?
you are right :)
-
Maybe one of you is the toyota dealer technician. The sales person kindly report to me I need to change/replace the Clutches after test drive. Frankly, the quotation is doubled what I expected.
Can anyone introduce a good workshop in vic can do this?
I found an OEM part here:
but not sure if this is worth or not.
I want toyota parts :) thanks.

No engine mods, I am just a normal driver :P
Have you done any engine mods? First thing is check and change spark plugs
-
Thanks, sounds like the spark plugs, I wish it is not transmission or gearbox. I will bring it to the dealer and check it out.

Common signs that your spark plugs need to be replaced include:
- Difficult starting
- Unstable running
- Engine misfires
- Increased fuel consumption
Thanks again :) I dont wanna get a new 2012/13 ZRE182R now, because it looks like a mini tarago (personal opinion) hehe
Is it a manual? clutch might be slipping?
Given that its a zze123 i.e. sportivo it will be manual.
There are so many reasons why this could be happening
as mentioned it could be the spark plugs are done
it could be u have a coil pack no longer working
it could be a dirty maf sensor
it could be the butterfly valve in ur T/B is not functioning properly
as dumb as this sounds it could also be that ur 2 front tyres are flat
without a proper drive of the car from someone who knows a bit about cars its hard to say where ur issue is
- Difficult starting
-
Thanks, it is well maintained by toyota dealer. I guess they should be good, right@@?
As above
With 190k, you'd hope it's been maintained with fresh filters and oils.. Oil, air, fuel, spark etc.
-
Thanks I did not drive full load in high way, i drive about 10-20km a day.
Yeah sounds like something is up with ur engine
or your just driving around with a full load all day
-
Thanks a lot everyone. Simply said I give the vehicle fuel, but it does not pickup immediately and need to use more rpm than normal.
I have service every 6 months with Toyota all in log book.
In the past the car start sound very nice like this, eheheheh.... bom! bombom!...(loud and strong) but now.... it is ehehehehehehehehhe... ehheheheheh.... bom! (weak and low volume sound)
-
I have done some research, the new 2012/2013 ZRE182R 6.6L / 100km is really attractive... (some one said 5.6L/100km)
-
Ok dude that doesn't make sense
It need to start with high rpm and have a delay ? Which looks like not enough power ?
usually when I step on the accelerator at 2000 or 3000rpm, it will go and respond quickly at gear one. But now I need to step on 4000 or more rpm then the car start to move, it took a longer time from 0 to 24km/h. Which I feel I need more power to power on the car than before.
-
I have faced this issue for a while, I have asked around, but no body can answer my question.
the zze123 is about 190000k, it need to start with a high RPM and have a delay, which looks like not enough power.
Anyone have experience and similar to this case? is time to trade in for a new one?
updated 20-2-2013: Toyota advise to replace the clutches, can anyone introduce a workshop in VIC?
PM me, and many thanks
-
how much in total for this kit? any detail?
-
yes, you are right :) budget and save.

im in the 28-32 group, and more than happy with the stivo
i sometimes wonder if there are just too many youngens on here and what i'm doing here.
but then i said I'd get a golf gti, and everyone pasted me for it
so i still got the sportivo. 4 doors, wife enjoys driving it, plenty room for items for house and rental, always carrying dishwashers, sleepers, surfboards, oh and the dog, that requires a hatch.
i saw your other post, my list is gti golf, xr5, mps3 (don't shoot me gav), all four doors, all hatches, all slower than my lil stivo around the twisty stuff, hence i haven't shifted.
whitestivo
thanks, i am looking for other chance ...
stivo is very good, I really enjoy :P) but it is getting old now... :(
-

any other kit?
-

wondering, how come pp so young can get a boxster themselves now a day... B)
-
my little black is getting old, day by day... but still can feel its power.
however, old car is going to get higher maintenance cost and insurance...
i am thinking to change, but i cant find anyone can replace it from the market...
Celica with the same engine, but the outlook is a bit <_< ... hard to say here
, just not my cup of teanew version corolla Levin, 100kw and heavier body :( ... not a very good choice...
Any ideas bros...
-

Meanwhile, the rear sway is sitting at home, waiting to be put in. Just have to figure out the logistics of how (without paying for it to be done!).
Its a pretty easy job to do, it is just 2 bolts that are torqued up pretty tight. If you look through some of the sway bar threads (maybe the Whiteline GB) I outlined the steps involved.
To the original poster.
I found the front strut's effect was very limited, gave a little more front end traction due to reducing the axle tramping a little. The rear strut made a bigger difference since the rear of the car is a bit soft. But if your after a mod that will actually improve lap times/mid corner speeds, then the rear anti roll bar is the better buy. If you own a Sportivo and are on a budget do a swap for a 1zz rear antiroll bar, it is 21mm vs Whitelines 22mm and 23mm for TRD. You'll be able to pick up the standard rolla anti roll bar for cheap at the wreckers, or free if your grandma owns a rolla. But if you have a 1zz rolla just grab a Whiteline anti roll bar since it is a lot cheaper than a TRD or Cusco one.
(note: anti roll bar = sway bar)
thank you. my one is ZzE123 '03-'04 version, I dunt know it is worth or not. :)
Regards
, just not my cup of tea
