ITR is lighter...but the Sportivo has 4 doors and sits 5 with regards to power...need to take into consideration the power curve and when does all the power kick in in the rev range...same power doesn't mean same performance i think it's still comparing apple and orange...one's a pure track oriented machine straight from the factory, the other's a 5 door hatch with a little more oomph than a common corolla
i was charged $350 with king springs, plus installation and alignment... tell him you'll be a much nicer brother-in-law to him if he does it for free or something
yeh...take the car to the dealer and get the situation checked i think only the earlier batch of sportivos were affected by the ecu issue...not too sure...
the car plate used to be 'BUAYA' (crocodile in indonesian) and was featured in Hot4s a while ago...back then it looked quite good...but yeh...now the Batman kit kinda ruined it...
hm...might wanna give Galleria Toyota a try. i had my 40000/50000 major service for my stivo for less than $300 if i remembered correctly...tyre rotation incl. also, if you book bout 1 week in advance you can borrow one of their cars for free (pending availability).
