  1. hahah your like me.... my 350z got the same problem... everytime i drive it, i get in to deep ****... i duno y.... bang up in the butt.... kissed the gutter and broke 2 axels..... i dunno... rolla is better.. cheaper atm
  2. nice... yeah gonna drop it soon and get a exhaust made... like the magnaflow pipe... no muffler thanks, i noe its not pretty atm but it will be soon
  3. here is my rolla that is my daily car that takes me to uni and back... doesnt look too nice but ok.... needs to be lowered... do u noe how much lower it need judging from the fotos? should i get springs or a kit?
  4. how about speedline 2010? lightweight, forged magnesiums
  5. $170 x 4 = 680 (tyres) (Don't know what type you're planning but this seems rather cheap!) Discs (rotors) = RDA/DBA Standard Slotted about $170/corner (i.e. 4 x 170) Pads = again depending on what you use... from $60-$380 (each end) i.e. 2 x what ever.... front and end its not cheap, and you forgot a few things... Fluid (race DOT4 or 5.1) = $60~$150 Braided lines = $150~380 (again depending) on top of that, there's labour.... ← the tyres are Azenis RT215 from tempe tyres. now the plan is just pads and tyres thanks for your help
  6. oo.. i see... wow... this is a private track day. so now its semi slicks all round, slotted dics and good pads $170 x 4 = 680 (tyres) Discs = ? Pads = ? wow expensive......
  7. btw where can i get "Ferodo 2500 pads" for the rolla?
  8. wat do u mean that the semis will throw my grip off balance? so u think that semis all-round will even it out? its just a day out on to the track i would like to noe, who uses wat rotor with wat pad? from DBA they only offer gold slotted rotors, i think.... BTW... my rims are black so it doesnt matter if theres dust.....
  9. also in new south wales.. where can i get the brakes done for cheap? roughly how much will it cost? thanks
  10. wat do u need for track day or how do u and ur car get prepared for it? i am planing to go next month to wakefield. on the plan, i am planing to get 2 semi slicks for the front and a the front disc and pads changd to EBC sport rotors and EBC red stuff.... do u think the red stuff are any good? also i need a helmet...
  11. is there any aftermaket exhaust that would look like the sportivo one? similar tip.... not tooo expensive...
  12. how much would the bomex rear bar and side skirt cost painted blac?
  13. i was wondering whether the sportivo exhaust from the axel back would bolt on the standard exhaust system on a normal rolla? if so who has one for sale in sydney? PLZ PM ME
  14. well. cams have are not in the market yet. for now. has anyone tested this theory out yet? i would like to see some evidence to prove that it doesnt work. hey, i could be wrong.
  15. Do you mean, altering the lift to kick in earlier so you could stay in lift when changing gears? You'd most deffinately lose power. And be slower on the 1/4mile than a driver that can stay in lift without changing lift engagement. If you think that way, you might want to change the rev limiter up a couple hundered instead so you can land lift easier. ← getting to kick in earlier. i noe that u would lose power. but how do u noe that u be slower in the mile? in the sportivo. u change gears and it drops below the magic 6200. say u change the lift to 5000 where the gear change is. then lift is always there on the upshifts. u would get better pull. wouldnt the torque be more earlier?
  16. i c i c. i thought that altering the lift point to suit to the box would be better than waiting for the lift to come you. As the power band is not high on the rpm, the acceration is there earlier. has anyone tested this out yet on the 1/4mile track, NOT dyno. the power maybe down but it may improve the time.
  17. "no. vafc doesn't work coz the v stands for vtec. afaik, lowering the vtec changeover point on a stock engine makes it worse, unless u have different cams put in." got sites that have cams for the 2zzge?
  18. sorry. i didnt mean to cause an argument. wat stuff gets the sportivo around 120kw atw? would this be powerfc, cat-back and cold air induction.? cos the TRD site had piston kit at higher compresson that would increase the power upto 15kw. u reckon wit those goodies it get in that range?
  19. wats the most power out of sportivo have u seen?
  20. since the sportivo kicks in at supposedly 6k. does lowering the lift kick in help the car perform bettter . example introducing a VAFC-2? on paper it states that the sportivo has 141kw but low on torque and does 8.2s. is the correct figure? has any1 beaten this 8.2s claim? comparing the sportivo to the DC2 type-r. does the sportivo have a chance in perfomance to keep up?
  21. where can i find a C-one exhaust pipe and rear spoiler? who stocks them and how much? are they worth the buy? got pics?
  22. hi, im andrew and new to the site. i am a proud owner of a 2004 corolla ascent in black. its now got black alloy rims that i got. pretty light weight rims. i was wondering wat can i do wit the 1ZZ-FE motor? wat is the stock rating power atw is? i plan to get a axel back muffler (cannon like the trust power extreme 2) and a filter (cold air intake) and a SAFC-2. would these mods be able to get the car close to the 100kW atw? has anyone got cams? will it make the differences?
