Encase that video doesn’t work for you - heres the link Also - it says corolla wagon - but looks identical to stivo inside - (except the speed on the dash goes to 180 not 240)>>>

The Chromed edge Levin grille looks the best :) :) :)

i aggree - put a silver members car there insted of that euro style grille (loks like the grille from the ULTIMA hatchback)

mate my first car was an 03 ascent and now I’ve got an 03 Sportivo there is absolutely NO comparison - its simply a diff car - if nothing but for the engine go for the stivo - stick a CAI in and it roars!!!

i got about 740ks City driving - Mobil 8000 (58 litres) and that was with quite a bit of lift- but mostly changes around 3.5k still very impressed with this little beast - compared to my auto 03 corolla (used to get 400 ks Max 50 litres of 91 unleaded - driving softtt)

and beyond..... agreed lol

Sorry guys - unable to do it anymore - Contact: tunerpartsdirect (on eBay) i got mine in for 302 bucks all up - this is probz the easiest way

1. YOU DO NOT NEED TO REMOVE FRONT BUMPER OR FOG LIGHTS!!!! 2. INSTALLATION DEPENDING ON HOW GOOD YOUR ARE TAKES AROUND 20 MINS (TOOK ME AND A FRIEND ABOUT 15 MINS DOING IT SLOWLY - and we found it quite easy) 3. PRICE WOULD BE AROUND THE 325-390 (depending on currency conversion - hopefully we can get it down a bit depending on order size (as delivery to Aus is the expensive part) 4. The bypass value is used when driving through heavy amounts of water - it prevents any water from getting into the engine (and is situated about half a foot from where the CAI connects onto the engine 5. Fits all sportivo models - (03 to 05) !!!

removed as too much effort involved / you may as welll order it yourself and pick it up for around the 310 mark

i find the only petrol that will give me good mileage is Mobil 8000 used 50 litres on 700k (all city driving) with AC on constantly im very happy with that it seems the others such as shell, caltex, bp 98RON's give better performance but alot less k's

Happy Hanukkah? :) Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year TOCA! Be Safe Have fun & Take It Easy On The Spirts LOL its spelt chanukkah :) (the c is silent in chanukkah lol) but yeh have a awsome new year, happy chanukkah, xmas, kwanza, ramadan etc :)

spend the 300 bucks on the AEM CAI of ebay, its worth it!!! 4 days delivery from the US, hassle free, easy, quick install, amazing look and sounds INCREIBLE

i got Yokohama C drives 205/50/16 put on my stivo rims for $189 a tyre at bob jane t mart in hornsby

blitz dont make CAI... welllllll, as far as i know, my brother in laws mate who will be selling it to me, had it on his old sportivo, i haven't seen it yet, but i have been told its a blitz and its from the states...im pretty sure i've seen some around on ebay before ;) anyone want to confirm? ive seen a few blitz intakes on ebay Australia - cant coment until ive seen one / driven in a car with one installed

gluk with it - ull loveeeeeeeeeee it :) btw im getting better petrol consumption now aswell - 650ks HAMMERING IT :) how many kms were u gettin b4 well probs around the same- but hammering nearly non stop much more than before :) - LIFT is more adictive than ever

primer - $14 paint in spray can- $25 gloss - $14 i think you could prob get cheaper though - (with primer and gloss) but dont go cheap on paint

gluk with it - ull loveeeeeeeeeee it :) btw im getting better petrol consumption now aswell - 650ks HAMMERING IT :)

AEM

definitely use plastic primer 1st then do the coats of paint then do the final glossy coat layer (with plastic gloss stuff)

Installed my AEM CAI last night- Best BUY / MOD EVER! - the sound of this thing when you hit LIFT is incredible - ridiculously loud at revs >6000 but below is quiet as- almost same as before ALSO - all my rattles and noises have gone away - it used to rattle and buzz like crazy when i hit LIFT (i thought the noise was coming from the centre consol / dash) but now it has alllll gone away much quicker throttle response and definatley more power from 4grand upwards (especially in LIFT) pictures posted in my 'registry'

at the time - i got the 6.5" for the front and then 6x9's for the back (awesome speakers but big mistake due to inadequate corolla stock parcel shelf and allot of effort needed to do it properly- just get 4 x 6.5's) and it was $290 for both sets

the speakers in my previous corolla ascent seca were pretty bad - so i changed them to Pheonix Gold 6.5inches - to answer your question - the stock speakers were 6.5 inch - so al i had to do was take off the door panels and remove the speakers bracket containing the speaker (which were pop riveted on), smash out the old speakers and use the same brackets to put the new speakers in. The Phoenix golds were excellent speakers :) (im no longer using them as the stock setup in the stivo is much better than the ascent and will suffice :)

just wondering how much it cost (springs + installation) and where are you located, as i was thinking of having springs installed also what is the handling like- compared to before

lol is it really that noticable - i.e. idling will be that loud?

My CAI will be getting installed in a few days (hopefully lol) and i was just wondering - will the car get warmer quicker with the CAI installed as currently i can drive 2 k’s or so and the car still wont be fully warmed up yet? or will the CAI do the opposite and take longer for the car to warm due to additional, denser colder air coming in?
