Toyota Corolla 10th Generation Altis Owners [continued]

hm...di naman sya matagtag Sir? usually kasi pag nag out of town kami, 5 slightly overweight passengers ang sakay (im not hehe) plus baggage. d kaya mag bottom up ang suspension in that kind of scenario?

Swabeh Ken! Euro family.

Yeah, they made the 1.6v so appealing, yun na ang dumami.

Tama ba na same everything yung 1.6v sa 2.0v except for engine?

The 2.0 also has a CVT transmission, HID, and the one-liner grille.

Thanks a lot Idol! the ride is still in full stock. black color....[IMG][/IMG] [IMG][/IMG]

If you're on a budget, OEM 16's from the Gen 10 V are nice then add a 2.0 mesh grille and rear courtesy lamp. 17s are still good even if you load up the car well and go out of town, i do this on mine and run the car at 34-35psi. With 17's i'd recommend 215/50R17 tires (not 215/45R17 that most put). If you're serious on 17s, baka pag tinoyo ako and I find a nice set of OEM 16s for my ride, i may sell my 17" set at a reasonable price. I was likewise thinking of getting another set of 17"rims (OEM Toyota) pero so far i have not found a good deal, the Scion rims i saw up for sale were kinda pricey.

18" yun rims, tapos 235/40/R18 yun tires.

Stock height. Hehe.. Di rin naman kasi ganun kalaki ang fender gap.

No need to lower as it does look good already. Also, takaw sayad yung front ng Gen 10/10.5. Plate base na yan... may nagbebenta ng OEM sa clubzz site. :D

Pero the CVT of the 2.0L was designed not to feel like a CVT, diba? I kinda like the Gen 10 V mags though vs the sportier Gen 10.5 V on the 1.6.

Bro, 215/50r17 won't look too tall? Parang mahirap atang maghanap ng OEM 16s eh. I've seen a few with Subaru rims. Didn't notice the tire size though.

Palaki ng palaki ang wheelwell ah. My 10 year old Camry's tires should 235/40r18 if set to match the oem 15s. Of course they looked undersized, kaya 225/45r18 ang mas ok.

Depends on the color of the car IMO. In my case (black) it looks okay.

There are a couple of OEM 16s for the Gen 10.5 up for sale now but i'm taking a long hard look and thought before coughing out the dough. If a really good deal comes along then i'll snap it up.

To think before with a 1.6L car, 15" rims were already big and you needed to put 50 or 55 series tires for them to fit. :D

I removed also my OEM Tail pipe finisher. Sumasayad sa ramp at the office.

215/50r17 indeed. the 45 series just lowered your ride a bit. OEM finisher, meaning it came with the car? Or was OEM add-on? Ganun kababa ang Altis? Or mataas lang talaga ang rampa ninyo?

I recall that 15s were as big as Corollas could take. Tapos came the 17s. Hehehe!

^ The OEM Toyota finisher; it was given to me free by the CASA. It's a stupid ramp design (steep and sudden) more than the Corolla being low. In contrast, my gen 9.5 on OEM 15s with 205/60R15 tires feels like an SUV (walang kasayad-sayad talaga).

Hehe, my Mom's Altis Gen 9 is even on stilts - 195/65r15. Hopefully the Gen 10.5 won't give her problems with the ground clearance.

Ang dali lang niyan.

EUDM theme ba? Eto basics...

1. Rims from 15" 1.6G, palit ka to 1.6V rims. Dami diyan, mura pa. Keep it OEM eh.
2. RFL (pwede rin DIY tapos spray paint ng transparent red yung puti sa tail light (left side)
3. 2.0V mesh grille (dami din)
4. Super Yellow high beam bulb (Euroline, Solarzen etc..)
5. Super Yellow foglights
6. Osram NBP or Philips XV for low beam
7. OEM sideskirts ng V
8. Rebadge
9. Take out unnecessary stickers (conduction sticker hehe)
10. Tanggal deflector sa plate area, palit ng acrylic plate cover
11. EU plates with frames plus EU plate base sa harap. I think red fraction would be nice

And you're done. Iba rin pag JDM. 18s Work Emotion XD9 ftw

Eto naman ang hitsura ng faceLifted.na Altis dto. Actually maganda sya tingnan...


Saka kahit 4a/T lang sya. Yung USDM specs i believe na with 1.8li VVTi is rated at 38mpg hiway... Same lang dun sa de-rated na Elantra w/ 6AT. I guess may sikreto pa din tinatago mga hapon na di pa nila na diskobre. Hehe. Ang di ko lang gusto ay parang sumikip ang interior space. Legroom, lalo na kung pareho 5'10" ang naka-upo harap likod... Mas maluwag pa old Altis... Dahil ata kasi pinalaki nila engine bay to accomodate 2.4li... Kaya na sacrifice konti ang cabin space...
