OOOh yeah...GA I'm here!!!
Yeah that's my boyfriends corolla...he's got tons of things done to it...lotta bling bling put into that car. LOL. Na but seriously I'm really looking into getting a tC. I wanna turbocharge it in the end. maybe around 300 whp. Of course I won't be going that fast with the kids in the car but, u kno sometimes i'll have the need for speed. LOL. I also want the car to look nice too...what things should i start doing first internally? And should I wait on putting the body kit on before or after?
First of all ima tell you upfront so im clear. BODYKITS do not fit well onto our cars. With the kaminari kit as an exception, they just kill the look of the car. I will advise you to stay away from body kits. Unless you just HAVE to trick it out....Leave it clean looking and get a nice lip kit. AS FOR TURBO-ING...Thats all good. Get the 5 speed of course. and if u want u can upgrade the internals but it aint necessary to get 300hp. Look into the turbo toyotas simple kit or the dezod kit and u can make 300hp no problem with good tune and engine management..witch comes with both kits. But yeah body kits suck on tc's just my honest opinion. And what color u lookin at? Look at flint mica or super white. superwhite would accent the corolla nice. Stand out next to it. Oh man i can go on and on...
I was thinking a baby blue color...I had white for my second color, I'd like to start trying to design some nice graphix for it too. Eric designed the graphix on his car all himself, I'll prolly need his help. Yeah, a friend of my boyfriends told me about the Kaminari kits too. I was googling pictures of tC's with bodykits and I didn't see too many I liked, I was looking at pics on here too of some with the Kaminari body kits too and I liked the way it looked. First things is first...i need to get a tC..lol. We jus moved down here to GA and that's the car I want. I saw one when we was still up in NY and I fell in love with the way it looked. I didn't know what kind of car it was and I explained to Eric what it looked like n knew exactly wat it was...and Ima get it...
GO for it. go down to the local toyota dealer (if u havent already) and express your interest. I think the color your lookin for is wavy line pearl. Go and ask for that. You may have to have them order it with all the specs you want. But yeah tc's are great. Lots of aftermarket options and support. But yeah i've said alot and know alot of various things about the car..but i think your best bet when lookin for info on turboing and other things...would be to look in the specific forems. Those guys are pros. Im just read alot of the stuff posted there lol. Keep everyone posted and remember..take pictures of everything, from purchase to the first mod. Your gonna want pics so you can make a showoff thread in the future!!
Yeah I went to my first 2 carshows over the summer with Eric. He's in the eastcoastredline.com car club. I saw alot of cars with books and pictures of things they've got done. I was planning on doing that. I wnat ppl to see what I've done to the car. Eric's getting some serious work done to h is car. It's been gettin worked on for the past few months now. Hoping to get it back soon. Someone else told me about the Savannah Toyota too. I just might have to check them out. thx
