COMMENTS PLX :P

18 years old, this Corolla 1.6 is my first car. for This age, insurance for Tsport is too expensive, anyway tsport must be my next car

[borodaz]

tidy car fella, are them the t sport wheels ?

[chenks]

i personally don't like black alloys, but each to their own.

not sure about the gear knob either.

[kintung01]

NOPE, they are Boss redline, 17"

look identical to Rota Torque

[chenks]

any reason why you've put a tsport Badge on the front when it's really a T3 ?

[ae102]

i wish my first car when i was 18 looked as good wheels look alright, get some ultralite nuts as they do um in black. gonna have mine done in a darker colour when i get them refurbed. look after her and keep her CLEAN!! you'll have t sport in 2 years

because it looks better, without badget and stickers, the car will look very plain

Nice, i agree, i am going to get some red wheel nuts and voltage stabiliser soon ^^

Nice car, id remove the T-Sport Badge though

[kintung01]

Nice car, id remove the T-Sport badge though

well, personally i reckon this T- sport Badge is just like red honda budge

the tsport Badge is meaningless it Japan, all 2zz- ge corolla and celica does not call tsport, they call Runx and Celica SS-II, people added them for the purpose of decoration only

if there is other Badge that is look good, i would been used already

i have tried tom's, Trd, C-one , anyway Tsport is the best

ALSO i have debadge the entire car, i haven't remove the T3 badge at the back

[Gwelandor]

nice first car there m8. look after her, keep your license clean and you will have your Tsport in no time :)

i remember my first car an "L" reg mini sprite 1.3 :D

[Ed_Shek]

Nice car though I'd remove the T-Sport Badge. Don't want to go up against a real T-Sport and get embarrassed do you now! :P

ha, my license is not clean, crashed into a parked Fiat (less than a mile outside my house, just leave house to go to school) last december becuase of the that day was a extremely cold day, i have had already stoped twice to sort out the frozen ice on the wind screen, didn't expect it will get frozen and steamed again that quickly. so i can see nothing, by the time i prepare to stop again, i have already drived into a parked fiat.

Hey nice looking corolla, lot of 18 y/o usually go for civics as for my first car well not gd as the corolla,lol what type strut bar is that? never seen that one before & where did you get thet razo gear knob, i given up changing the gear knob since lot of them would look out of place despite fitting even the TRD duracan one i eneded up selling on eBay! anything else planned for the car? window visors? u know u wanna ;) & u not chinese anychance by looking at your user name??

ha, i am chinese and may get window visors. i buy my razo gear knob in hong kong, Razo is a japanese brand, all Gear knobs are made in good quality, i dont think u can find it in UK

i bought this struct bar in hong kong, i forgot wt brand is it, anyway blue look nice

anyway i am going to sell my gear knob(the one it the photo) , if u are interested, PM me

i am planning to get voltage stabilizer, and a spark plug voltage booster which boost the sparking power of spark plug from 12v to 18v, it would have noticable increase in acceleration and increase the responsiveness of accelator

cant find any good exhaust for T3, and not sure about suspension or coilover, it is only a T3 not tsport, not worthy to send too much on it,

if my car is a tsport, i would have fully modificed and take it to racing track already!!

[UKDM323]

Hmm i may be interested but need to have a Badge or sticker some sort same pattern the TS is 6 speed manual otherwise if i hand my car over & they wont know where reverse gear is!lol why u selling? regarding parts its not all gd for the TS really well the 3dr anyway if its say japanese exhaust wise as the 3dr wasnt sold in japan !& me & some people enquired about this & didnt look good engine parts are fine i wouldve thought, depends how much u use the car or what sort things its for, since coil overs can be rock hard ride even 'softest' setting is noticeably hard on some cars, i was close to buying some D2 ones for my last car but opted for eibachs springs & let say glad i did !!! & after hearing about the shafts & coil overs on the on of the threads .......

o i forgot to mention that my car have done nearly 150,000 miles, my father used to work in Brighton, lots of motorway mileage, now my father got a company car, so i can have the corolla. i have no regret that corolla is my first car rather than a civic. i bet a civc cant reach 125 miles/ h and overtake a aston martin DB9 :P . also i think setting of accelerator and steering wheel allow me cornering accuately, even made a mistake, it is easy to save it.

o, i c, but i think u can buy those sticker, (i think i got one of this sticker when i bought this gear knob, but i am not sure have i bin it yet) i am selling it, beucase i am going to uni after summer, my father will take over this car. so i will sell interior part, no point of keeping it

however i will keep the induction kit and struct bar since they are expensive and difficult to find it uk, unless someone offer me a good price for it

LOL, D2are good suspension, i am not sure about the knocking shaft, if u go to austrailia toyotaownersclub, nearly all corolla tsport got D2 or Cusco coilover fitted on and lowered, so i think there must be a solution

do u install ur eibachs springs by urself, because i am considering to get one

I already answered regarding the Eibach on other post jst now all i say is get them!!........

I didnt even kno about the shaft till i read the other post so cant really help there, the audm spec corollas probably have some different parts, u be amazed how many bits are different if compare to uk or jdm spec though there are some euorpean t sport owners with coil over suspension some even members here that may help...

That's tosh. Who ever told you; ignore them.

What do you think the Coil Pack is? 15-20K volts go across a spark plug.

Looks nice anyway; remove the Shift Light and it's onto a winner

sry, there is lots of japanese doing this spark plug voltage booster , it is not a tosh.... u got to up to date. it has been out for several years already

i dont know the exact name they call,

i am from Hong Kong, most modificed cars have added this on

civic, yaris, supra, .......

[UKDM323]

Not everyone may agree with me i did notice 'slight' i mean very slight difference if not much when i fitted a voltage stabilser on one my last car, was only better ignition tho, i not bought another one since... didnt know there was a spark plug stabilsier, just gotta be careful of expensive brand ones, so kin tung how long you been in UK for? where i live in Hong Kong when i visited, there so many modified cars :) some of them i seen had these stabiliser fitted thats what got me buying it previously!

5years, but i go back to hong kong on holiday every summer, voltage stabiliser does increase the performance abit

yeap, there is some extremely expensive one come with full kit, cost at least 400 pounds, and it is specified for 2zzge engine,, it increase sparking frequency 10 times

for some least expensive, there are less complicate to install, i think it is like voltage stabilizier, connect the battery and engine,

i have read a magazine, a honda stream installed one of this, and 0~60 miles acceleration is about 1 second quicker

all range rpm has veomce more powerful

[St3ve]

It works by disengaging the Alternator off in a fashion when the Battery is charged. No way will it make 1 sec difference on the 0-60.
