My Cts On 17" Rota Slipstreams

[Zuban]

Got my new 17" Rota alloy wheels from japan after waiting for 4 months!!! took some quick pics during the weekend, what do you think! Car is lowered on KW coilovers aswell. The exhuast is a Remus, got it for £130 brand new.. Bargain!!

[poultonjoe]

nice but personally i think the exhaust exits are a bit too large!

Looks really good! Not seen many modified silver T-Sports.

Those arches really swallow those 17's don't they?

Get a sticker with an arrow on it for your rear bumper

"Dual Cannons stored here" ---->

That exhaust does seem to mean business.

lol yeah, it really doesnt look that big when you see it, they look about right in real life, well to me anyway!! there 90mm pipes same as the TTE backbox i think, but the original backbox got damaged, and i saw that one for cheap so i just got it and fitted it myself.

The arches are pretty big, could easily take 18's but the roads up here are so bad it'd break my back along with the coilovers so 17's seemed a nice stepup from the standard 16's without comprimising handling to much, really corners now, those pesky type-r's cant match me in the corners even if i cant get past them in the straights grrrrrr, cant get rid of me either hehe :D

I honestly dont know how long it is, probably -50mm to -60mm at best guess, its as low as i'd go. Had Spax lowering springs and on before the KW's and they were -35mm, the werent low enough and were still far to soft. Really is crazy how toyota set the standard suspension, there is a huge amount of room for improvement.

nice ride, never seen a Toyota on Rotas before, they are mainly on Hondas. I do believe that slipstreams are the best option doe. My mate purchased a set for his Honda Delsol and they came with these carbon lookalike centrecaps, would reccommend you remove that, looks alot better. I actually think your exhaust looks ok, but buying a cheap exhaust will probably lose you power. TRD make an exhaust backbox for this car, over in Japan they call this car the Runx, check it out!

I'll take the centre caps out and see how they look . The Remus backbox isnt that cheap normally its about £270, its a fairly decent box, and certainly feels like its better, but i wont know until i get the car on a rolling road. I checked out the TRD system but on the runx the backbox is in a different configuration, the pipe ends on the other side of the car, and the box runs from side to side rather than front to back, i didnt think it would fit!?

[siu16]

you may be right that the exhaust exits on the other side of the rear bumper but i believe it is because the japanese version is fitted with an extra silencer which runs sideways making the exhaust exits on the left side. Have a pic of a Japanese version.
