  1. i doubt anyone would've used it, it seems like another immitation / gimmic. the only thing it does is rotate the air that goes into the intake,
  2. doubt there will be any snap on turbo kits for the 7afe, i presume u will need to get alot of custom work done, unless anyone can correct me on that?? but definately go for new the look, exhaust, intake, new wheels, stereo, and respray if the paint is looking worse for wear
  3. u can turbo any car if you are willing to dig deep into your pockets, as for having an auto and BOV are used as a turbocharged application only not for naturally aspirated engines but if you have a turbo you will still be able to hear it when it changes gear but it wont be as poignant and hoonish as say a fully sik wrx (manual) would be
  4. ull only go fast when u put ur foot down, but i have an 03 levin and ive loved it since the day i drove it, as for what ur looking for mine has all those things and i cannot complain about it. the main differance between the 1zz and 2zz is when u go over 6000rpm where the LIFT starts, so up to you really if u want the economy just dont rev it abouve 6k because its pretty good for consumption, but ull need a levin if u are that adament about having an auto.
  5. i was going to put my airbox back in, just for the fact that i put my foot down abit too often just the hear the noise from the cai, i should get new headers and exhaust aswell, but i can definately agree with the power in the higher rpm range andmost noisy at 3000-5500rpm
  6. obviously there will be a differance with a differant motor, the 2zz puts out an extra 30kw at the wheels than the 1zz therfore the power gains will be numerically less but relatevely the same percentaage wise. but just try searching the forum next time ;)
  7. toyota have the worst listening skills. listen up you corperate fat cats we want our sportivo back in any way shape or form(as long as its a corolla and not a rav 4 or a yaris)
  8. whatever id prefer having any tivo colour compared to mine but i reckon my paint so so much cooler, it looks silver in the sun but grey when it rains but greeny blue at night with light reflecting off it
  9. nah i like it black because i have black everywhere, on mirrors, windows are dark tint then the sills are black so i figure it'll have a black on blue look
  10. i personally prefer the HSV Combo
  11. black facelift sportivo , stocker seen on corner of princes st and buffalo rd east ryde at aprox 3:30
  12. i would if i could but i cant, leaving for work tomorrow. wont be in sydney for the next 3 weeks ah well
  13. my pleasure, ive painted mine red they loook soo nice now. but easiest way is to DIY without taking the brakes off, just make sure u cover the partss u dont want sprayed
  14. daviboys ride thread shows pretty indepth of what he did with his calipers. for getting rid of the grime, muck and whatever is on the calpiers, i used engine drgreaser. worked like a charm with a rough brush of some knid, steel or non is ok.
  15. yeah there is a section to that http://au.toyotaownersclub.com/forums/inde...showtopic=13927 which has the supercharged camry engine in it

  17. saw a red sportivo at maquarie centre aprox 7:30, and a silver one at 3:30 in the same spot what a coincidence
  18. the levin ones look so much better thaan the ascent ones but id prefer the sportivo ones in my levin personally
  19. thats a shame that u didnt say hi, we had a good time going up to the mntns and getting told by the cops to ***** when we were stopped at the lookout, cant keep up with my 1zz <_<
  20. front speakers are in and working well :clap::clap::clap:
  21. i put it on the actual bumper and waited for it to dry it was alot darker than that of the origional colour which was somewhat weird. i have just given up trying to do the spraying it just wont match colour :(:(:(:(:(
  22. i should be in syd then so 50/50 chance ill be there... but hope to see u all there
  23. gettin my car serviced on the 24th, but would really be interested in finding out the diff with the small things ive done on the levin
