Default Scion parts VS Toyota parts

I know Scoin comes from toyota but my question is, would buying some aftermarket parts from toyota fit my scion tc? ive found some great performance parts but the shop is from Japan and they only have toyota.

Okay...Scion is just a brand. It is made by Toyota from existing Toyota chassis and engines and suspension minus the FRS (which is mostly Subaru).

Lots of parts on the first gen tC are used on other Toyota's like the engine is from the Camry/rav4 etc, lots of the suspension and brakes are from a Celica GTS. So are there parts from Toyota of Japan that you can use on your tC? Yes, probably a decent handful. But there are also a wealth of already tested and proven parts for the tC that you don't have to make guesses on whether or not they'll work either.
