Looks awesome

Are they honda rims???

Thanks mate, i was wondering if i could run off the existing sender or not. I was too concerned about putting gauges in the corolla originally but i have a double DIN pod up on my dash that is perfect for a gauge cluster. It will fit 3 gauges across, i just need to decide on the 3 to use, being non turbo i don't have a lot of choice.

Hi guys, am looking at putting some gauges in and have a few questions, i was wondering if any of you have any advice. Probably looking at oil pressure, oil temp, volts, and maybe air/fuel. Have had a bit of a look online about installing the oil gauges and they mention an "oil filter sandwich plate" which is kinda like a spacer plate between the motow and oil filter with 2 blank sensor holes in it. Has any of you put one in? Do they work? Ive heard of erratic idling and pressure afterwards. Volt gauge is no problem. Put one in before. Piece of cake. Air/fuel apparently only works effectivly if you have a wideband sensor. Is it worth it if its only the narrowband sensor? I have an AE112. 7A-FE motor. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hit up the "toyota corolla ae112" facebook page, one of the admins seems to know a bit about the sportivos.

lookin' good mate.

Are the eBay ones alright? How do they look compared to the genuine ones. Seen a photo of you car on "toyota corolla e11" on Facebook, I saw it because I admin a page for AE112 fans, and we've shared a bit in the past

Looks great mate. Ive given up getting foglights for mine. Too rare and too expensive.

Looks good mate. Another one with spoiler risers, no wonder i can't find any lol. Score on the wheelarch flares. Unique.

Looking good mate. Nice to see another 112. Keep us posted.

thanks for the comments guys. I'm thinking of not worrying about the spoiler risers now, as having the top spoiler makes the bottom one look better, the risers look better by themselves. jaaay, no good with the part number, had a look through my owners manual and couldn't find the receipt anywhere.

New top spoiler on the rear window thanks jaay.

You said you didn't have it on for long, do you have a photo of it when it was on?

How much would you be after for the spoiler? Does it have the mounting gear with it? Plans for mine... Maybe pod filter after christmas, Repaint my interior panels, Do something about the exterior paintwork which has peeled. Finances are very limited atm tho so i don't know when i'll be getting to do it.

The top hatch spoiler that you have, do you have a photo of it? Do you want it or are you interested in selling it?

$100 that's a bargain mate. I've pretty much given up looking for them tho now. Had a busy couple of years with having kids and moving house a few times, So the rolla has been a little neglected of late. Now we're I our new place I want to try and get her back to how she used to be. Sportivo lip is genuine, was actually ordering the one like yours but that came in instead. What other plans do you have for yours?

Looks great, nice to see another AE112 on here. Question... where did you manage to get the spoiler risers from? I've tried everywhere and gotten nowhere.

Simon's '99 Corolla Conquest AE112R. Bought as standard as they come.

hey mate nice 112, i got a set of the pedders coilovers in my 112r a few months back. it's stiffened the hell out of it and drive sooooo much better. only problem tho, with the car being so much stiffer have noticed a few squeeks starting to happen.

verh nice. bodykit looks like it belongs there not just slapped on as an afterthought. i had the same trouble trying to source sportivo parts, managed to get the front lip spoiler but can't find the spoiler risers anywhere. p.s. where'd you get the eyelids? buy them or custom job?

yeah kinda sucks coz it was so nice when i bought it. i'm thinking now that i mite just go matte black over the entire car.

Hi everyone, here are some pics of my AE112r this is the most recent photo i have. the day i brought her home. Very neat and tidy. This is how it looked for a while, i'm in the process of making the cutout grille again. After a wash at home, probably one of the last photos where the paint was still nice. My clear coat has since decided it no longer like my paint and they're going their separate ways. will post some more pics soon, let me know what you think. i'll also update with a list of the mods i've made. Simon.

nice buy mate, looks very neat. kinda like mine when i first brought her home. the stereo "pod" is held in by 2 bolts, to access them you need to pop out the panel where the hazard light button is.
