That's REALLY inexpensive for a full catback, header AND downpipe, and all full coilover set.

Any feedback on this brand? Also, coilovers say check your state for lowering laws, but then goes on to say intended for race/show car use only, in which case state laws would not apply. Is that a clue to "this is a not to be driven daily product or it'll wear out waaaay fast" which could be the reason it's so cheap?


Dr. I Cable Bushings (Plastic Delrin). Will White Lithium Grease eat through these ever? Says it's a metal to metal lube. Or should I just go get some liquid wrench silicone spray instead?

 

A bunch of people have the coilovers and like them. Nobody that i know of has the other stuff. There is a video on youtube of the header, downpipe and exhaust and it sounds like a weedwacker.

 

to be fair, half the headers on the market sound like garbage and they are priced higher.

 

Well i was more say that whole combo sound bad. i know any header on a tc will sound bad

 

Checking your state lowering laws just says to make sure you know how low you can legally put your car in your state. For the most part that's just the company covering there ___ so they won't be responsible if you manage to get pulled over for being to low (which isn't something that happens often..but yellowxhoodie knows all about it lmao)

also there is a whole thread on the coilovers so do you a search next time.

 

theres a thread over 100 pages long on raceland coilovers...

 

I watched the youtube video and don't understand what kind of sound you expect to hear? Do you want to hear a big v8 rumble? It's a four cylinder import. I just don't understand all the weed whacker talk? My zx6r sounds like a ____ed off puerto rican but she runs like a top and can smoke any other na 600 I've raced. I mean really what do you expect it to sound like? Maybe post a link to a 'good' sounding car. Heck all the drifting videos and drag video they pretty much all sound the same to me

 

I know it's not gonna sound like anything but an inline 4 no matter what you put on it, but I have a pretty throaty sound with a fujita intake and TRD axel back and very pleased with it so I'm reluctant to add anything else, especially with the name brands being as pricey as they are, and the tiny power gain's they provide. Saw very affordable (in comparison to) and was curious. Would rather spend $$$ on underdrive pulleys and motor mounts, etc. Sorry bout the non-search. I swear, everytime I search I find nothing, and everytime I don't search cuz I assume I won't find anything, I should have searched. Always search mike, always search...

 

I expect it to sound like that, that is why i dont buy one because a header for the tC is a big ___ waste of money. Buy the time you get it to sound half way decent you have spent close to $500 for what maybe 5-10 hp. If you want your exhaust to sound like the that is your problem. A good sounding car is a tC without a header and cheap exhaust.

 

they have low prices to get there name out there then eventually they will up there price like everyone else......so this is the time to get them

 

Thanks for the feedback guys.
Thread for raceland coilovers on scionlife seems broke, found on Scikotics forum tho. http://www.scikotics.com/forums/showthread.php?t=55221
Everyone seems to like them.
These are partially threaded coilovers though not fully threaded. I doubt I'd drop it low enough to bottom out here in Pittsburgh, so the loss of travel stroke might not be a prob @ all. Fully threaded ones just look more solid though, ya know?

Any word on lube for Dr. I Cable Bushings?

 

i put white lithium grease on mine the other day and it didnt change anything
