  1. Hi guys, just browsing through the mwr website trying to find something else to waste my money on and came across these stroker kits.

    2zz-ge Kit

    Just curious, how would i choose what compression ratio to get and i take this is all bolt on/replacement stuff. Does anyone know if everything else can remain stock as far as engine internal wise (minus the parts getting changed with the kit) and i take it that the ecu also needs to be replaced as well.

    Any thoughts/ideas and help would be great.

  2. Who was the first person to look at a cow, n say "im going to squeeze these things and whatever comes out im going to drink it"

    The same person who thought to eat the hard thing that came out of a chickens backside!..im sure they didnt have frypans the first time ...

  3. Read my topic

    Been a couple of weeks now, still flat shifting, If the box is cold it wont do it but after 5-10 mins of driving i can, spinning the tyres every gearchange cause of landing in lift. Btw the rubber is 215/45/r17 pirelli pzero nero.

    Have a read, and make your own mind up. Cars done 111,000ks and the clutch is slipping here and there but that rod is so much better. Let us know how you go

  5. Ok guys, another update

    I was talking to xoom a few weeks ago in regards to the clutch issue again as it seemed like the crunching had come back, well a mate suggested getting a long push rod and his mate had done that and cleared the problem.

    Anyhow, i mentioned it to xoom and he gave me this link to mwr Longer Pushrod

    so,i ordered one and i got it installed this weekend, and .......................... im shifting so good that i keep hitting limiter and smacking seconds with no issues, shifting in lift is so smooth cause i no longer get that brief moment of coming out of lift then revving up into it.

    Crunching has gone from 6-7/10 times to about 1/20 times. I CANT BELIEVE IT. Like i said in previous posts, my clutch is still on its way out so that might still be the cause of that 1 crunch but for a measly $70-$80 to see if it works without having to change the clutch its worth it. Mind you that 1 crunch was my 3rd attempt after installing the pushrod, have done about 20x 1st-2nd land in lift attempt since with no issues, while succesfully landing in lift.

    Please sportivo owners do try it, cause if it works it saves you trying to change the clutch and let us know how it goes.

    Delivery was about a week with tracking details

    PLEASE DO TRY!!

  6. Look, dont be afraid to hound them on issues that are concerning you. You paid for a product and that product should be free of faults. Its their responsibility to fix it, otherwise they'll just keep avoiding it until your warranty runs out.

    If no one wants to help, ask for someone higher in the ranks(manager etc.)

    If that doesnt work, write a letter of complaint or try another dealer. Obviously if the guy that came on the test drive noticed it then there is defenently a problem that he needs to fix (the whole point of warranty, he noticed it so its something that it not meant to be there) Who cares how long or hard it is to find IT SHOULD BE FIXED. THATS HIS JOB.

    Anyway, like i said, dont be afraid to speak up, you paid alot of money for the car. HOUND HOUND HOUND until they've exhausted all their options!

  7. Hi guys, i wanted to replace my foggies in the sportivo (corolla) to hids. Ive been looking around ebay and this is what i get confused with

    Ebay shows hb4 hid globes as

    Ebay HB4 Hid Kit

    Yet from looking at my car and other web photos, Hb4 seems to look like this Normal Hb4

    Now i must be a moron, cause i can't understand how the new hid globe is meant to retrofit into the original globes position as the original has a right angle, and the new one is a straight piece?

    Also, are the ballasts mean to "plug and play" into your original light globe plug, as a sort of extention to the ballast if you will?

    I have searched but still havn't found, and its confusing as hell

    Thanks guys
