  1. I'a also like to add my sincere thanks to evryone that took the time to organise such a great cruise, and to all those who took part in making it such a great event Me personally, I had a ball, catching up with a few known faces and meeting many more Well done to EVERYone for being smart, playing it safe so everyone got home ....until the next one..... :D
  2. I've said before, but it needs to be said again...and again...and again *** DAMN that's a sexy stivo
  3. ok, take two see if I can get this to work a little better this time
  4. latest trick bit trd cai, $305, delivered in less than a week, 6 days including weekend to be precise......there was only two of them purchased at the same time too..... ......curious, wouldn't ya say? Anyways, big ups to the big fella, sortin this out Very nice, good improvement, well worth the few $ spent
  5. sorry guys I'm out :( finances aren't gonna allow this right now sincere apologies
  6. I'm definately in sporti (high wycombe WA)
  7. *belated* spotted and1 and his gorgeous facelift on the way to pick up my mrs to go on holidays damn i love that car :D IMO, the only thing he should do is put rims on it.....then it'll be one of the sexiest stivo's in Perth ;)....still is........ And1.....rims????? :P
  8. It'll look a lot sexier when it's dropped on it nuts :D
  9. ok, I'm oficially puzzled.................not that its hard to do, but thats a whole other story :D How can Toyota claim the stivo's to have 141kW, but this is a good dyno chart? Honestly TRDYUS, I'm not having a shot at your car, its a general question. It also makes me want to put my car on the dyno and find out how mislead I am at present. Thanks in advance Dave
  10. many thanks Dave i, erm, heh.....sheesh......*cough cough*......know that thread's there now *lol*
  11. Mopp, do you know the part # for the sportivo's whiteline front sway bar?
  12. agreed, today was a blast the rain turned out to be a pleasant surprise on the skidpan afterall :D I cant wait to see if there is some of the sideways action on tape Big ups to all that attended both the AHG and the cruise afterwards I'll have to make sure i meet some of the new faces on the next one!
  13. Looks like I may have put this in the wrong section Mods if you feel the need to move.... ~points to my newbie status~ heh
  14. I was in at one of my local Toyoat dealers this morning, the guy i spoke to seemed to be fairly switched on with regard to the matters I wanted to talk to him about....so, when he mentioned that my '03 sportivo required rotors and pads to be changed everty 40'000kms, it kinda came as a bit of a surprise. One of the only real complaints I have with my car atm, I put down to the rotors being slightly warped, I could also be wrong in my diagnosis, but it seems to be the only thing I lean toward thinking. When pulling up from any speed ( 60 - 80 - 110, whatever), if you brake lightly just to slow yourself, the steering wheel shakes quite noticibaly, the more pressure you apply to the pedal, the more the shaking disappears....if you brake hard(ish), theres no shaking at all. So, 2 questions remain. Can anyone either confirm or deny that they know of the whole "south african models use softer rotors and pads"? & Am I looking in the right direction for the cause of the steering wheel shaking when i brake? Thanks in advance Dave
