Calling all ALTEZZA owners

Folks,
Thanks for the input. Among the recon importer I noticed Altezza & Celica is a popular choice they bring in compared to honda accord euro R and Integra GSR.
I wonder why?. Anyway Altezza :rock:
 
I hope I can buy one in future. My AE111 98 corolla is getting old and I was thinking of Altis but after seeing Altezza on our roads I am hooked. I started to compare BMW E46 v Altezza
in every aspect and I feel BMW has the badge but Altezza has the most important part of owning a car "Reliability".
3S-GE : 20 year history and Mark 5.
Furthermore I feel this car will become a classic like AE86 cos
This is the 1st and the last Toyota Altezza. The latest model
now IS250 is lexus.

Altezza is a likely upgrade. Hmm Must wait patiently.
I have already started my Hyper Rev Altezza Collection. I have 3 volumes already. I hope the importer still bring in the 03, 04 & 05 models. :)
 
ho ho....

maybe we should begin a discussion whereby to maximise the performance of the toyota altezza......

topics will include:
engine
suspension
chassis strengthening
low end/high end torque
cool looking carbon fibre bonnets/GT wings
outrageous looking rims(speaking of which the enkei arashi rims is really too much....silver bladed type)

just my 8 cents.....

do not underestimate the power of the altezza.
did overtake a few BMWs but not 328 and above cause lack of torque. but if u compare 3S-GE to other 2litre engines(NA). it has the highest torque in its class.

Hmm...RM140-145k for yr2000 Altezzas seems a little steep doesn't it? Unless of course there are added goodies... Even so, the yr2000 Altezzas i'm seeing around the Klang Valley are on sale for RM115-140k

12) dun like? dump in 3S-GTE.

dun like any of that. dump in 2JZ-GTE or 1JZ-GTE.
mounting using original as originally there is an altezza IS300 using 2JZ-GE

so what does celica do? does it have any of this advantage?

at the end of the day its the individual who will decide whats best for them not us.

and ppl see altezza comparable to BMW just like supre to skyline.
the most i see was celica is only comparable to DC2 or DC5
 
of course not your 1jz dude.

dun know comparable to what car.
b4 transplant engine to 2ZZ-GE & after transplant to 2ZZ-GE.
maybe a class of its own? have ta ask KOOLSPYDER.:biggrin: about this.
maybe LIGHT WEIGHT NIPPY AFFORDABLE LITTLE SPORTS CAR?
