Thanks for the info guys...
yea, they're a lot better than oem. i was going to go with those but they only make the fronts for the tc. so i got the next best thing - dezod pads. they're made out of the same material as trd (carbon-metal content). and i think the company that made the brake pads for trd is performance friction.

you know, i've always heard awesome things about the greenstuff pads back in the celica days. but when i was reading reviews on the tc, a lot of people were saying they were way too noisy throught the entire temp range. im sure some of those are cuz people dont brake them in properly, but still.

remember who your talking about...tc ppl.. most of which complain like a **** for any fkn noise... even if its their own asscheeks frapping cuz of a fart the seat did not noise down with its cushioning... i've use ebc's onmy old civic and they were super quiet...and were awesome... the first 100 miles u need to break them in easy.. (slow stops..long rides.. lite taps0 after that....ur good to go..

Yea i know, i think my exhaust is too loud

wat do you guys think i should do, but 50 restricting resonators so i can be slow and open up my pipin to 4.5" so i wont get that poppin sound wen i slow down...
I mean the only reason its poppin now is because my pipin is too small, i need to open it up some the gases can escape faster u feel me....
does anyone know a place where i can get this done and then cut the pipes and bend them so the exits right out of the lil fake front vent???


Thanks for the info in advance guys....scionlife rocks!@!!!!!

lol@pete. thats true. i forget that. well too late for me now. it was either trd of course, but they dont make the rears (retards). then it was dezod (fa show). and my next choice woulda been the axxis ceramic pads. i had to wait a while for the dezod pads, but considering brembo is on like a 3month+ backorder, i didnt mind the wait.

that's very true. my front brakes are gooone and my rear are still brand new. im just replacing all of them to stay consistent with the material being used. like if i were to replace the front 2 tires, i'd replace all 4 at the same time instead of riding on 2 different brands/traction patterns. exaggerated example as the 2 tire traction patterns can be dangerous. lol. i figured i do the rears since im doing all 4 rotors.

hola mami. lol. which leds? the ones on the passenger side? they shouldnt if the rocks popped the lens. your new mirror should come with the leds if it has the turn signal, they're soldered onto them. if you're talking about your drivers side, don't worry about it. once the new pass. side is in, they'll work. they rely heavily on the amount of current being passed through those wires, even if you remove 1 led, and the circuit is not complete, the others will light up about halfway. so don't worry about it.

So I decided to repatch it, but this time I applied much generous portions. I don't think it'll work but well see.

I'll check it out in a few days, if it leaks again i'll move onto some stronger stuff. Usually manufacturers are conservative when they are rating their products, so they don't get sued, if the products doesn't hold up to what they listed on the item.

For that reason i'll be trying jbweld for testing purposes.

Jbweld is not recommended for exhaust repairs because of the higher temps. I want to see how it holds up. It is good for cylinder heads and radiators =) I'll try it anyway. Its also grindable/sandable, lovely product.

http://jbweld.net/products/jbweld.php

After some thorough research, and looking around I found this.

http://www.net4sale.com/Shop/pc/view...uct=51#details

Hi-Temp epoxy made by Lab Metals. It has a higher temperature (1000!!! DEGREES listed, so it has to resist more than that) resistance than any jbweld products. Actually more than double the temperature resistance. Can also withstand really high pressure levels. It is also grindable/sandable. It'll be nice to test it out.

I'll tell you all how it all works in the following days

Depending on how it works out, i'll write an article.
sounds good man.. good luck.. if it works out, hook me up with some... gotta a leak by the AEM A/F sensor bung.
