Looks great mate

Hope you dont mind I put the image tags on to make it easier for everyone to see.

thanks mate i am useless on computers

i am looking at lowering it but to get lowering springs for it i need to find them for the facelift corolla as the facelift had been lowered to the pre facelift and i cant find them,do you know of anyone ?

[smoftah]

I think most people on here have used Eibach to lower their facelifts, but not 100% sure as I have not lowered mine.

[carltsport52]

ok chap thanks for that,i shall have a look now !! :)

I used Eibach springs to lower mine.

It's only a 15mm drop though. You can get them from Fensport for £152 Including VAT & Next day delivery

Took me & my mate 3 hours to fit in a garage on ramps.

[carltsport52]

that might be an option then mate,how do you fancy fitting them for me

it certainly needs lowering though that is for sure

[smoftah]

If you get a chrome boot strip that would really finish the back off

Here is my rear end:

Do the Eibach drop the compressor? Am I wrong in thinking the Comp is 15mm lower than a CTS anyway?

Facelift CTS = 15mm Lower than Pre-Facelift

CTSC = 15 mm Lower than Facelift.

I think there's a thread on here someone saying they already use an Eibach setup. You'd be best spending a good few £££ and getting coilovers! I just couldn't afford them!

Edit: Just had it confirmed that it uses an Eibach shock & spring combo, So I doubt it'd lower it!

Nice to see a TOC'er close to me!

I got it from Macclesfield and it's on an 05 plate! :) Love Red TS's! We were orignnnaly going to get a 1.6 and that was it, Fell in love!l lol.

Ive got some more of them to put up. Just need to get them off the camera! Got some new badges on my sideskirts since those photos too. Got them from the JTS at Silverstone yesterday....

[-T- Sport]

Cool, Get them up!

I'll get a few more of mine when the VVTL-i badges turn up!

[-T- Sport]

Oops! Looking at the last pic of the rear view of your Compressor, CHeck you rear left wheel.

It looks to me as though the tread is facing the wrong way and that hweel shoul;d be on the right side of the car. You dont wanna be knackering your tread!

[dwtg]

How the heck did u spot that! eyes like a hawk

[-T- Sport]

haha, Well y'know!

Supprised he hasn't noticed the difference in grip!

yeah mate it's Eibach set up on compressor's lower than facelift t sport, if you look under car from the rear you should see the stickers on the shocks. think the only way forward (or downward in this case lol) is coilovers

[carltsport52]

hawk eyes ;)

thanks mate,i already knew that when i bought them three off the tyres were on the same rotation so i have got to nip and get them swapped over.

i have found some cobra or pi lowering springs 30-35 mm drop on an 04> t sport surely they will drop the compressor!

im on a budget with paying a mortgage and bills i havent the money to spend on coilovers

[carltsport52]

hi chap

i must admit that i am not a big fan of chrome,but that does look nice i especially like the colour of your motor i wish they had done a compressor in blue,i saw a blue sr at santa pod at the jap show last year wasnt you by any chance was it?

[carltsport52]

fwazz me ole mucker

you sourced that spoiler yet,looks like i aint going to get to lower my motor without spending loads of money!as you have read above mine sits 15mm lower than yours that answers our question everytime we park next to each other

im going to look on net for the spoiler give me a bell when you have seen this post.

i have found the spoiler for £135 + £25 delivery they might do a special offer on two

i have got the name of the company at home here is a link for you to check it out,think it looks great.

You can always spot Smoftah's motor, because at some point he has crashed into a T Sport and the TS Badge managed to get stuck to the front of his car ;)

[carltsport52]

tell you what theres nothing wrong with that my first rolla was an e11 gs purple with white wheels and i stuck a t sport Badge on that ,now i own a compressor so i aint doing too bad
