Thanks for the compliment. Loving your Rcolt too.. It's changed so much over time, and im sure it'll look even better. Your ex-aurion is by far the best i've seen so far!

Thanks mate!

You had me worried, i was waiting to read FOR SALE :o

and i'll say it again,this is my FAVE stivo... A definite standout and nice idea with the thread Alex :)

Thanks John, and likewise with your ZRE.. Just awesome. The wheel choice was awesome, especially with the recolour to bronze!

This is definitely one of the best sportivos around.

Thank you :)

This has to be one of my favourite 1ZZ's of all time. Tastefully modded and goodluck with the next car ;)

A lot of you guys will know me by now, and how much i've taken care of my stivo.

It's my first car, bought it stock from someone that never knew lift even existed. It was not until it was under my possession where it has since transformed into something really enjoyable to drive.

It's been a fun journey thus far.

I've been with the TOCAU community for a little bit over 2 years now, and i can say it's been a great 2 years modding this little pocket rocket up, and meeting such a great crowd. It is at a stage where i am exceptionally happy with, and it still makes me smile everytime i see her. :)

I havn't really gone into too much detail with all of my mods as of yet so i thought i would create a fresh new post to outline them.

My goal was to create something that was clean, turned heads, handle well and have some punch.

Hi guys,

Looking for a sportivo Corolla catback!

Located in Melb, PM Me!

i just got a new set from Road & Track. www.roadandtrack.net.au

shameless plug much?

That looks great John.. Love this ZRE

love it. Good work mate !

Spotted Aaron @ highpoint :)

Sadly, this is something you have to expect from owning a car or any property for that matter. Things get vandalised and it just can't be helped. Yeah.. damn you scums.

I felt very angry one day coming out to my car with 1 deep continuous key mark all the way from the rear door to the headlight on the passenger side.

I learnt a very valuable and expensive lesson - Never park somewhere ghetto.

.

I emailed him recently inquired about something - no response.

I phoned him - Dude doesn't even sound professional nor did he sound like he was keen for a job - so be it.

Friend gave him a call, and told me he was pretty rude and didn't seem like he wanted business.

My experience.

Wow... The rear of the facelift looks so retarded.

spotted dyslexic drive throough spencer st this evening.

Spotted Kolourhero - ALLEX on Bourke road the morning heading north....

car looks mint on the gas mate! very tough!

diggin the hat too Alex. ;)

I didn't even see ya Andy!

Thanks, its a cool hat aint it :P

LOL that looks tuff, its crap that you lose 2 spokes in the 4 stud version though :(

whose is it?

mine. I got those rims for free.. So happy :P

as far as I know the 8 spoke model are the ones under 17" for 4x100.

Man, there awesome hahaha! did you have to mod the gaurds to get them fitted though? or did they fit with the normal sized fenders?

hehe, thanks. But unfortunately they are just photoshopped on hence free :)

You may need to roll your guards if you do get them in 17x7.5" tho..

LOL that looks tuff, its crap that you lose 2 spokes in the 4 stud version though :(

mine. I got those rims for free.. So happy :P

as far as I know the 8 spoke model are the ones under 17" for 4x100.

That was my car in the exact shape 2 years ago.. oh boy so much has changed.. lol

All the Corolla Sportivo's came in Manual.

The next best thing in that era would be the Levin.

Wow i love it.

It looks like a "poor-mans LF-A".

No it won't.

Unless the inspector somehow misses it...

Welcome! You've come to the right place.

You're in for an expensive 'bite' :P

Another local.. welcome!

Looks freaken awesome Alex!! Looks sex. Photoshoot sometime! Hehe keep it up.

Peter.

Edit: I believe it's time for you to update your profile picture. :P

Thanks Peter :) Photoshoot for sure. I'll get around updating my avatar when im feeling less lazy !

Ride is so sweet Alex! just gets me peaking looking at it lol.

Its the distinct detail that sets your car apart from others.

The sleeper JDM look is more than enough to turn heads compared to the more ricey stivos out there. I LOVE IT!!

Job well done mate!

Btw, did u respray your headlights from silver to black with Jason?

Thanks mate! I sprayed my headlights myself, Jason did his ages ago.

Wwesome purchase.. love it!
