I live near Ace Cafe, bought my car from behind Ace and love visiting Ace lol

I currently drive a Toyota Corolla T Sport with the 2ZZ engine, have done quite a few mods and Im really happy with the car so far :kiltsmilie:

Right,due to the increase in power,i would like to stop in a manner befitting a sports car coming to rest under control,without experiencing brake fade.Therefore,would you recomend red or yellow pads?Already have grooved/drilled discs,but wonderd if anyone on here has had both colors of pad,as i have heard good and bad for them both.Or is there a pad out there you would recomend?
Cheers

Heat from 13t's

by Fletch, 12-08-2020, 04:52 PM

Hi,im struggling keeping the heat down in the engine bay with these turbo's,standard heat sheilds dont fit as these turbo's are bigger.Ive already removed the weather strip at the bulkhead to allow heat to escape when on the move.Thinking about wrapping the turbo's,but then someone mentioned the heat transfer may crack manifolds?
Had to go heat range 7 on spark plugs as i had a hot start issue due to the immense temps.Sooooooo,heat wrap or fabricate heat sheilds?

Color difference from front/rear bumper?

by Saraj, 12-08-2020, 12:35 PM

Hi guys,

I have noticed this quite a few times, but each time thought it was the tricky sun light causing it.

But it was pretty cold and dull today when i washed the car and still i see a difference.

but do you?





And if you do, is this normal? I wouldnt have thought so!
