my 2001 corolla s

im new to to this site and wanted to post a couple of pics of my ride

more to come



DONT MIND THE DIRT LOL

dang that intake is right above the exhaust manifold

nice HAI... (hot air intake) i recommend reversing the setup so it intakes cold air, but yeah take pics of the car too!

hot air?

welcome, good to have another 8th gen on board. you should really tone up your engine bay

ty and ya im gonna work on that

nice ride

New pics

Maybe a hood scoop would fix that. Another idea is relocating the battery and have the intake where the battery is at right now.

thats not a bad idea but its not near the exhaust manifold and were the intake is there is nothing there so i dont see how it is getting hot air

Your intake is sucking up the hot air right above the exhaust manifold. The heat rises and can't escape when it hits the hood. You'll want to route the intake to the front of the car and not the back.

i got ya

Looks good. A few things I noticed.

The engine bay needs a good cleaning

I would replace the intake for one that's made for the 1ZZ, dunno why the stock elbow is being used.

The interior needs a good cleaning, both of the dirt and rice.

You need new tires, ASAP

rice?

hey man want a strut bar???


btw car looks slick man...i dont see rice...

Seat Covers and the painted red trim...IMO

thank you movie and how much for strut?

matches his interior...

idk like 30 bucks. its your basic ebay strut bar...

I just prefer the all black interior that the S provides.

If he likes it thats fine with me its not my car I am just putting my .02 cents in.

+1

i would have kept it all black too

Wow, the first thing I would do, of all the mentioned things, is replace that rear tire. A bald tire is not a racing slick.

you should of keep your stock intake box,its asking for cooler air.

we can work on relocating your intake too =]

lol, lota suggestions. here's mine, its simple really... go down to Wal-Mart and get a bottle of Armor All for (10 bucks i think?) plastic wipes and wipe down all your rubber parts i.e. (all the engine hoses, VVT-i cover, interior etc...) it would look like the day you bought it

hey don't relocate your batteries, revert your intake back to stock for now... and if you have the time reblacken your interior
keep it simple

ya thanks for the advice but did you not see i said dont mind the dirt. i dont need cleaning tips. i just wanted to post some pics real quick. i got my wife for cleaning advice. and go back to stock intake? y the hell would i do that?

nice seat covers
