Shadow

Spotted Shadow at 1.40pm this arvo in Milton at full noise!!!

CAI fitted Shadow???

CAI fitted? Hell yeah...a Purcell Performance special...highly recommended.

Was that you with the RUNX badge on the back?

Spotted Kyle's little brother out the front of Milton Maccas heading towards MT Coot-tha on friday arvo just after 5pm

and this in the work carpark - anyone here?

black stivo, GT badges everywhere, possibly lowered and sounded like there may have been a CAI in there somewhere too (more than likely in the engine bay) ;)

haha...thats meeee ;)

is this your 'work carpark' too? I work upstairs in this building....what do you drive?

I've never been :( but i have heard the 'Nude' treatment costs around $50 and they give you a beer while you sit and watch!!! hahaha

So wheres the next meet?....

haha...no she wasnt as enthusiastic as some of the other ones...

apparently they do 'nude' car washing as well!!

Albion fiveways

spotted a silver stivo, lowered with Red sticker on side indicator (HKS?) Licence OJC?

Saw you checking out the topless car wash chick! haha

hey lance yo, sorry man didnt even realise u had already left the sushi place and when i sat down i realised n looked outside but u were goneskies, heres a very late thank u to u :P

haha likewise pippsta, i see u everywhere the most too man...our cars are spritually connected yO:lol:

and that black stivo with decals everywhere is my mates car yO, he bought it off the previous owner who had added those mods (ces catback, trd cai, trd sussy, trd ss and thats bout it as far as mods go)....personally i think the car is a lil over-decaled lol( even the owner thinks that too haha)

oh by the way next time the southside cru should all eat at that sushi place at pinelands sumtime

the sushi there is fantastic yO

haha, no worries wei wei! I agree the sushi is great there, thats why i'm heading there tonight!!

Have a look at the panel on the side of the centre console and at the base of that panel you should see a small plastic plug. I think there is another one about 20cm above it to. Check them to see if they are fully tight with no movement. If there is a little gap between the plug and the plast panel, jam some paper in or something along those lines to fill it so that the plug won't move at all.

When I was looking for the rattle I pulled open the glove box and cable tied as much as i could and it did nothing. It wasn't until i jammed up that little plastic pop out plug that the noise stopped.

Mine would rattle whenever i was hovering around 2800 - 3000rpm...

have a look at the plastic pop out screw on the bottom of the panel that the passengers right knee would rest on (at lest thats my technical description of that area). I had the EXACT same symptoms as what you described and I found that that screw was loose, allowing the panel to vibrate. Used to drive me nuts till i fixed it.

At least thats one of the rattles eliminated...

red stivo @ pinelands sushi bar carpark last nite

looked stock with GT badges

and last week a blue or black rolla screamed down kessels road

Yeah that was me (but my car is actually black!!!) Great sushi at that sushi bar!

saw black/ blue stock looking sportivo on logan road this arvo giving it some before turning off left at lights at travelodge

Hey dude, that was me! thought i would say hi through the use of lift :D (was a black 05 rolla by the way B) )

Black stock looking Sportivo with GT badges, Bunnings Underwood carpark 5ish this arvo

Hehe...ahh MAP81, you noticed me? I was gonna say I spotted you first :D !! Oh well...

yeah it was a black one.

facelift stivo down logan road - had Corolla GT badge and some mini-TRD stickers on it and stubby antenna... very nice car.

black? if so i would say thats Lance.

Hehe, yes! I've finally been spotted!!

Oh yeah, speaking of GT badges Corey... ;)

Well, after 800km in my '05 Sportivo, all I can report is a few times when changing 2nd->3rd I've slapped the shifter up into the bit BETWEEN 1st and 3rd. The 'return-to-centre' isn't as quick as my last cars so instead of just pushing up (and letting the shifter move itself inline for 3rd) i have to slow, move across, then up. (if u know what i mean)

Otherwise, all is well.

←

Yeah, i have experienced the same thing going from 2nd to 3rd on occassion. Other than that, the shifting between all other gears in high revs is quite smooth...

I agree with Zav though that changing into 1st can be a bit tricky even when the car is almost at a stop...

Did you have a passenger - the one I saw did...

Well I was in that area...but didnt have a passanger...interesting to know theres another black 05 stivo out there!

I'm not so stocky looking now that i have my suspension in... :D

Black stock 05 ***IOH Lutwyche Rd Kedron - Herston then he turned onto the ICB 7am-ish Thursday Morning.,..

I know you saw me dude, you followed me for a couple of K's

Hmm...that sounds like me....

Hi all,

This is my first post! :D

Gotta say that i'm loving my TRD Suspension! It increased the handling ability and yet didn't sacrifice on ride quality!!

I've ridden in and driven a rolla with Kings and Konis, so i can compare the ride. The Kings and Konis work well if you drive hard most of the time and want to take corners fast, but you sacrifice some ride quality.

The TRD's on the other hand make everything feel a hell of a lot firmer but still feel smooth and comfortable enough for everyday driving.

I'll post some pics of the shocks and springs if anyones interested...
