dopey

revised ratios how so? shorter or longer?

Hmm, a good reason why I want to trade in, I sure as hell don't want to wait 3 months with no car.

Any reason why 3 months? seems a long wait for a popular production car, didn't think they had a backlog at the factory or anything.

thanks for the post

looks nice in the silver with the front lip

needs a rear lip badly though..

I'm definitely going to get these wheels. I think they're nice and neat.

We have the brochure. And we have already purchased the car, it's just not coming in till mid May. Already requested for it to have Kappa Alloys. Just want to see a real-life photo rather than one brushed up within an AD or a brochure. It seems there aren't many around on the roads either with these wheels, so my only option was to try and find an image elsewhere but guess I'll just have to wait till our lovely Graphite Levin ZR comes in. My wife and I are getting very anxious.

Thanks for all the help you guys!

Here ya go :D

Any more pics of your car?? I'm thinking about the same colour/wheel combo...

Hey, what springs did you use? Definitely tint the windows, will go well with those darker coloured wheels.

Thanks

I used King springs super lows. Dropped it 1.5 inches.

I'll be tinting the windows next and painting the calipers bright red.

How's the ride quality with these springs? Considerably harsher than standard or only slightly?

Any clue what wheels these are? I thought they may be the Toyota optional ones but they have a difference centre

TTE wheels. They come in 17 and 18 and expensive.I just priced this front lip from TTE and its about $600 shipped to AUS.

Did you get the pricing through Toyota dealer? if the TTE wheels were priced similarly to the Work Emotion wheels I was considering then I'd be tempted..

I'm thinking I might just get the factory option 17s and lower it and leave it at that for the most part, definitely need a rear lip and colour coded front lip though

Doesn't seem like a great deal to me. I was quoted $27k on road for a brand new one without even doing any haggling.

I'm thinking about upgrading to the same unit, currently I've got an AVH-P4050DVD in our car but wouldn't mind adding sat-nav in the new one

JVC has a new one coming out with a detachable face though so I wouldn't mind comparing that..

Thankyou for the feedback. Power is lacking this is true, but 100kW is enough for around town really. Keeps me from being silly anyway.

Did anybody happen to ask how much the sat-nav option is worth? *Edit* Noticed the RRP on Toyota's site when you configure the car -- $3740 OUCH!

Price is OK but not fantastic, where from?

Try Castle Hill Exhaust

4 Hoyle Ave

Castle Hill, NSW 2154

(02) 9680 2777

They did an excellent job on my old Tiida's exhaust. I ended up only getting mild steel press bent 2.25", from the headers back, and a regular sports muffler which was hidden behind the rear bumper like stock. Cost me about <$300 fitted from memory.

2.25" press bent is the perfect size for a 1.8 n/a engine, 2.5" mandrel is a little big.

Cost me about $40 labour to re-fit the stock exhaust at sale time with minimal wait and minimal fuss (bugger bolting up the stocker yourself)

Ok, so I'm heavily considering trading in our 05 Ascent on a new Levin ZR when the rego is about to run out (dec/jan)

I spoke briefly with the Toyota dealer and they say $32k drive away is about the standard rate on a 6sp ZR. I'm thinking towards end of year or start of next year they'll be super keen to shift some 08 build cars so I could get a better price.

So anyway, this thread is quite a few months old now -- so since time has progressed, I ask have any ZRE owners have any complaints since their last posts?? :)

Additionally - what sort of RPM does the car sit at when you're doing 100-110km/h on the freeway in 6th?
