Really nice !!! and clean look.

We need details on those phat wheels .... make, size, offset ... details !!!

They look like Racing Hart CR ... if so, are they 1 piece or multi-piece, regular or super low diskc ?

Again, nice job !

Hi Mikochu, nice to see you here! anyway i m using the Toyota Window Visor. I can get it for you locally if you want. :D

For the registry, i think i must have a 6 digit VIN number....and i think my ride doesn't have it. :(

Sweet ride!! Now I'm glad I ordered the black sand pearl. It seems like I'll be doing a lot of carnauba waxing to get that "wet look", hehehe :D

Hi Erry, yes i was considering 18 inch rims at first but was rather turn off by the weight....was quite worried about my ride's fuel consumption....so i bought the 17s.... :( .

by the way i m very impressed by your ride too....what kind of bodykit is that?

erry
05-31-2004, 12:24 PM
don't worry, 18 inch rims wont effect the fuel consumption :). that's fabulous bodykit with custom foglight housing and custom rear spoiler.

Looks good. But isn't that actaully a Scion xA?Or is it an ist with the Scion xA badging? Just curious.

That really depends on what is the weight of the 18 inch....my 17 inch is already killin me...F.C dropped by more than 30%.... :cry:

Anyway nice job on that fabulous...i m very interested in the custon rear spoiler...do you think you can do it for me? :D

What kind of mods are you doing to it?....is yours a 1.3 IST?

If you are refering to the 2nd hand engine replacement it's about USD$1000. A brand new turbo kit itself might cost up to $8000. Super-chager from Blitz cost about the same. :lol:

A comparison is done between them....check this out. (Turbo avaiable for Bb / xB too.)

That Toyota aero grill... is that for the xB or the xA? Obviously, yours is an xA, as is mine... but the only one i can find online is for the xB.

Hmmm... wondering if it wouldnt be smarter to make my own. $200 is a little pricy for a piece of fence.
