Matrix

Matrix, i love the front and side Canards... How and where can i get it done :P they look shweet :D

Evo

Thanks Evo, I've got the canards sent from Singapore.

However, they are not made for Corolla(s), so i've made some adjustments myself to have it fitted properly.

Mind you, mine is a Levin model, so the lower part of the front bumper is a lil flatter than Sportivos.

I havent tried on a sportivo, but it may not attach properly.

Ok I believe that I am the first sedan owner to do this mod on this forum/have posted their results. I know there is already someone on owf who has done this.

Anyway this is on my prefacelift 04 sedan. I think its just as good as the hatch tail lights. :D:D:D

How I did it:

I got some sockets from the wreckers thanks to yuro and got my bulbs from kmart. Soldered out the hole for the lightbulb and stuck it in place with blutak. Awesome stuff that is. Then extended the wires and wrapped it around the contacts of the brake light and soldered it against itself. The contacts are the ones which have pins that poke into the wire and they come off. So I just wrapped the wire around it and put it back in (wish i took a pic)

Took about 2 hours in the dark with a torchlight

You almost fooled me.

From far, your car in the second picture looks like a Merc C-Class. HAHAHA

Well done with the lights

Very nice Rolla in the flesh,nice selection of mods...also a pleasure meeting you mate. :)

Pleasure meeting you guys too.

Hope to see you all again.

Really liking the canards, a little change from seeing them scattered around Evo's & STi's.

The cars set out nicely, especially with it's wheel structure.

Good luck with further encounter's.

Thanks TRDYUS,

Speaking of Evo(s), i've also ordered a carbon front splitter from Japan.

The measurements fits the car. If nothing goes wrong, I reckon it's gonna look better after that.

Spotted Guni (ohhh so clean & shiney) behind me & Matrix in front of me (mini cruise ) on Springvale rd Springvale about 30mins ago.... :P

Yes, i saw you driving past too.

It was good fun. everyone at the carwash was very sporting.

p/s: 1stKill, nice ride! Would love to have an Aurion one day

Hi guys.

My own version of 'facelift'.. 1ZZ with some front Canards and add on side strips.

What do you think?

Front View

Side View

Side View with parkers

Will drop by to say HI...

Hope to put some name to faces and admire your hot rides.

I'll join ya's. It doesn't matter that my rolla isn't hawt yet? It'd be wicked to go along and see these rides in the flesh.

don't worry mate, the more the merrier! :)

I'll be interested. Drinks and photoshot at night? what's the meet time?

I might be a late though, i finish work at 9pm. Hope i can make it to this meet.

Here's a new idea... ZZE with front canards and additional side skirts :D .

I've just got this done not long ago..

Looks awesome Matrix. What spring /shock set up are you using?

Thanks mate. I'm running a set of GAB coilovers suspension.

Adjustable. I once had it lowered to the max, had the killer look but a lil too bumpy.

I've now raised it to the height in the picture, and the ride is a lot better now...

That looks impressive... top job

Spotted: ALLEX at Chadstone Shopping Centre... Have always admired it on the forum. The real thing looks even more aggresive. Fully Sick.

yes, will fit

How about a non-sportivo (ie: Levin ZZE123 / 1zz engine). Will it still fit?

i've got one and its perfect fit..

very nice !

How much did u get it for? from ebay?

Did you get a good increase in power/torque?

yes, will fit

im all for the racerboy look ive always liked it, but vinyl bonnets are very ricey kenneth, that aside nice car.

yeh.. ricey nonetheless but at least its not GLOSS black if you know what i mean :)

another unique blacktop :P

just a question, would it look any better if it was a gloss black instead of matt-black?

looks good nonetheless :D

Evo

i guess i answered the gloss black question above :)

and thanks everyone else :) hehehe.. full credit to and1 that inspired the wa-ian plus thanks to the bois for the surprise pressie :) or else it wouldnt be there :)

nice bonnet... does make a big difference. how much was the paint job?

Spotted BANKAI @ Franklin Street.

Man, u are everywhere... i always see u at footscray at the Pho place too..

Still not a lot locally available for ZRE's. KYB should have some struts available march/april and as for sways I'm guessing in the first half of this year sometime.

whiteline are no longer making sways for ZZE122/3's!!! Now they are being made by shelby's which i am trying to source prices and availability for those interested.

Count me in, SB... i'll be interested if you are organising a group buy. Thanks.

HHooweee!! We have a Winner..

Those are beautiful shots bruv & Thats a really nice put togetherd rolla..Should be proud of urself

Thanks for the comments guys. I've just installed a custom bodykit. Will post more pics up when i'm free.

how many k`s r the hids?

It's 8000k - BOSS HID.

hey mate, just a question, did get the door handles chromed, or are they the ebay ones. it adds a touch of class, and i like :P

Evo

I've gotten it from Malaysia. It is designed for Toyota Altis (US version) but it fits perfectly with our ZZE model.

I'm not sure if it's the same on eBay. If u want, i've got friends in M'sia. They might be able to get a set for u.

Would anyone from Melbourne be willing to give me a hand fixing up JDM style taillight please?

im looking for a sway bar for my ZRE if anyone see's one please let me no :D thanks everyone

check out our sponsor.. ultra racing..

just email them asking if those braces would fit on the hatchback version bcos the ones they display are fitted on the sedan version ZRE so yeah thanks for the help

i cant confirm but i got some braces that are meant for the sedan (altis in malaysia) and it fits perfectly on my hatch..

i cant say the same for the newer model but all the new corolla let it be sedan or hatch uses the same chassis (why wouldnt they) so if anything they will fit perfectly.. but its good to reassure that with the sponsor :) worth a try..

Ooo.... I'm gonna get it from Malaysia the next trip i go back. The parts are cheaper there. Maybe i can do a group buy (i'll notify you later on) and i can bring a few sticks back.

p/s: kenneth, what brand are your braces?

That's an awesome ride ! I love the C-one look, especially the Jap version headlights.

A great edition to the Silver Team..

Well Done mate!!!

Hey Matrix...I know a place in sunshine. It's called F W & M Vehicle Repairs....It's on corner Wright Street And Hampton Avenue....The painters name is Matt....Top Bloke....He painted my mudflaps, grille and eyelids all for $100...and he did a very good job....Hopefully he can help you out. :D

Thanks for the feedback mate.. Sounds great. I'll visit him this coming wednesday..
