  1. Correction... after more research the Injen for our rollas is a two piece... AEM or TRD is now sounding a bit more enticing coz i figure one piece is the better way to go. Although the Injen does look something hectic...
  2. So the ultimate answer is to just fork out the dough, get adjustable shocks with the springs so that the whole suspensions system lasts? ← i think what kcorro is trying to say is that any shocks will die eventually... ← I just dont want to send mine to an early death by just getting springs... I was considering Eibach or equivalent on stock shocks but i dont want to replace them after a few months of lowering. Been reading around on older posts, but its hard to make a definate decision...

  4. Just wanted someone to clarify a few things... If one wanted to lower their rolla, they could just get some lowered springs... Now.... Does this really kill the shocks in the ZZ122R rolla? Or, is there an advisable height that one shouldn't go lower to save their shocks? I'm aware coilovers are the shock and spring in one so you dont have to worry about that if you're getting coilovers, but for us cheapskates who just wanna get low, and just do the springs, whats rule of thumb? *INSERT RECOMMENDATIONS OF BRAND, HEIGHT, SPECIALIST OR WHATEVER HERE!*
  5. Its actually an aluminum alloy... ← More news on the Injen im interested in... Its a two part pipe. Aren't CAI's more effective as a 1 part pipe? What CAI comes in one pipe assembly?
  6. Another thing, what's the US equivalent to the Australian corolla? I dont want to buy a part that doesnt fit... So is the US equivalent corolla model a: A. Corolla S 1.8L B. Matrix XR or XRS My corolla having a 1ZZ-FE engine... Found this pic on the Injen website. Does it look like a 1ZZ-FE engine to any of you guys? Do you reckon it would still suit the ZZ122R engine bay?
  7. In my research I've found that they're mainly made for the US celica, matix, or anything with a 1ZZ-FE engine. I've read up about them in some mags and I've heard good things about them.
  8. I didn't want to start another thread for what is essentially the same topic, but does anyone have any thoughts on the INJEN CAI system?
  9. Spotted what looked like a really nice silver ascent lowered, big rims, and dual chromed exhaust crossing Canterbury Rd on Kingsgrove rd at around 7:30am...
  10. 1 month to go then it opens.... Hope everyone is still up for it!! :D
  11. Ok, this may be a dumb question but I'm a little confused with coilovers.. Is a coilover the shock and the lowered spring in one assembly?
  12. Trust me, if we get all the rollas together, it'll be worthwhile and a good day out... but remember: No coins are taken on the toll!!!! E-way!!
  13. at this stage yes. email me jball@challenger.com.au ← I did email you. Thanks for not replying. If this is an example of how you conduct business, then I don't won't to do business. See ya! ← Yeah same treatment with me! Sent all details needed and no response! Is this guy really the goods or not?
  14. Actually that reminds me of something kinda important... There is a toll, however it doesnt take cash! you need an e-way. So if some of you dont have one, you might wanna consider getting one if you wanna come with. It might be an idea anyway since soon all the motorways will go the same way. There is a toll booth goin in and coming back, but its only a few bucks! I mean, c'mon, how much have you spent on your car in comparison :P
  15. ok, I found out its a crank shaft pulley so i know where it goes... :P Still, i wanna know about performance gains...
  16. Hey all, I'm interested in getting a c-one pulley. Has anyone bought one or know anyone using one? Anyone know what kind of performance gain you'd get? Dumb question but: Where does it go exactly?
  17. Insterested since i gave you the idea! :P Are there any sorta australian standards these seats have to comply with? Can you find that out?
  18. did it have green fluffy bits? gotta have the green fluffy bits... ← ummm...no...
  19. I was thinking all these ideas (including the nice sound part.. :D ) but if the power gains are gonna be more or less the same, I think i'll just go with the CAI. After all, it is away from all the engine heat...
  20. Jokes aside, is anyone gonna hurry up make a move and organise a group buy?? They look pretty good, might be worth our while... :P
  21. On a totally unrelated but partly related note... :P For all the sydney guys, I was down at Doran Pro Audio in Bankstown and saw a brand new '05 'tivo had just been fitted with a really mad system. DVD player (retractable screen), 12in sub (i think), 6X9 and all the rest... Sounded and looked incredible. Thing is, it wasnt sold yet... The dealer was having it installed...
  22. Hey, thats what I'm hanging out to see/hear! :D I want all the other motorists to think the thing is gonna collapse! Then all our rollas go screaming past... It'll be awesome...
