Hey anyone heard of a division of performance parts like TRD but for Scion specifically, like SRD? A couple people coming into the dealership have asked me about if it was really happening and I'm not sure where people have heard this, and I wonder if it's just a rumor. That would be kick a** if they had something lke this...maybe they would actually do some real performance instead of the kinda weak support right now...

 

I would say that it is highly unlikely, but I have no proof to agree/disagree with you on that one.

Seems like it would be a waste of time to me.

 

I think there is one. in cali. not sure if I'm right but this guy around here has decals on his tc . google it

 

I think someone just made stickers with SRD instead of the TRD. I've seen them on Ebay.

I don't believe they would make a division for Scion's since it is still Toyota.

 

I googled it and found nothing.

Any racing support of a Toyota nameplate is done through TRD whether it be Lexus or Scion. Ironically, that's the reason why the Lexus IS hasn't made it to the track yet. Some privateers called "
Team Lexus" were designing a racing version of the IS for the American Le Mans Series in conjunction with TRD, but because TRD USA was in the early process of building their NASCAR Nextel Cup program, TRD let it fall by the wayside effectively killing the project.

 

i got a SRD t-shirt

 

Scion Racing Development is in fact a real thing. They dont produce any parts or really produce anything. Its just a name. You can find it on Chris Rado's World Electronics drag tC and on a few other Scion "race cars". Its basically just a sticker so dont expect to see any parts with SRD on them.

 

If it is a real thing...why don't they produce anything other then stickers?

 

NO..... there is no such thing and whoever made such a thing were individuals who think it'd be cool to made SRD decals and stick them on their car....

gahh.. it's been discussed before...

instead of locking this thread immediately... how about i take a vote?

 

Lock it up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

bring down da hammer!

but yeah, google it. titan motorsports had a booth @ nopi last year and they had a few SRD items. shirts, hats, etc

 

bah, even if they did have it, it'd be kinda pointless. Our cars aren't racers.

 

 

^^True but what does the toyota lineup have now that warrants TRD's existance...lol

 

^Corolla XRS..Tundra/Tacoma...FJ


but yea they aint ur Supra i feel u

 

they also make the matrix xrs!

 

boooo TRD. Le Mans > Nascar

 

Right but his point was that Scions don't deserve their own performance division because they're not fast, but I wouldn't consider any of those other cars fast either so...that's all I was gettin at. But I guess this thread can be locked now since everyone gets frustrated with people who don't read the forums on a constant basis...lol

 

SRD is a sticker to sum it up.

BOO on no LE Mans for the German named Hans.

and that is a sweet SRD t-shirt you have

Lock it Squallheart!

 

Maybe Toyota should create something specifically for Scion now that Lexus has the "F" series.
