Hello all. I have been a member for some time now, and I frequently log on here to mostly read without posting. Well now I finally have a bsp TC sitting in my garage! I bought an '05 used with 16k miles for 15,500 with a few goodies:
Ground Effects, Rear lip spoiler, 18" wheels, fog lights, side curtain airbags, floormats, 6 disc mp3 changer, tinted windows, TRD Exhaust.

I'm really happy with it...so much I can't sleep right now. I will take pictures in the morning and see about putting them up tomorrow.

I'm looking into installing the TRD springs, a shortshifter, then figuring out some way of connecting my ipod. (Currently reading how the '05 isn't compatible...drat)

Future plans include just having fun with the car until the warranty expires, and then Turbo this bad boy. I used to drive a turbo'd Honda, but since that car was stolen, I vowed never to buy another Honda...however I didn't ever say I wouldn't go Turbo again! I think the 2.4L Toyota engine will take to boost a little better than my D16!

Excited to finally be apart of the Scion Family. w00t! w00t!

 

Congrats. You bought the best color out there for the tC!

 

^shoosh
To each his own ben :D
White tis my fav

Congrats! Where's the pics

 

congrats.. at BSP tC is always something that will make you smile when walking towards her an now you get to driver her.. lol

 

cant wait for the pics, sounds like you got your tc loaded! congrats

 

Congrats on your new ryde! Here's a DIY I did back when I was looking for a way to hook up my iPod and SIRIUS Satellite Radio.

USA Spec PA11-TOY Aux. Adapter Install

You definitely want to 'hardwire' it to your HU! FM Transmitter sound quality are poo. Unfortunately, the price of the adapter has gone up. IMHO, you're better off just buying a new HU. Go to Crutchfield.com and read the reviews on HUs.
(Psss...get an Alpine! )

 

pics?

 

Dude I still get that same feeling when I get into my car! I'm starting to get the feeling that it's never gonna go away. mos def, get some pics up dude. It's like a disease, once you start to mod. you car, you have to keep doing it until there's no more left to mod. I ordered a Injen cold air intake and I can already feel the disease taking me over. just do everything right with this car. you'll definatly have no regrets with this car. I didn't and I'm sure that nobody else has either. Have Fun Dude.

 

damn i miss my bsp =(

 

thats what they all say...youll miss the driving style of the honda ....i step foot inside a tc and i already missed driving my 88 civic. I feel a lot more connected to the road with a honda, thats why i rather own a honda, but the tc is still being considered

 

congrats on the purchase! I remember I couldn't sleep or eat for 2 days after I got mine..haha!

 

happy times!

 

coming from another guy that use to have a boosted honda (d17a2 here) to a boosted tC, YES, the 2.4L responds to boost well!

 

I do miss the Honda, but it was dropped (tokiko blue shocks, eibach sportlines, skunk 2 camber kit) and the ride while firm and responsive was definitely uncomfortable in city driving. Because it sat so much lower and had a front sway bar, it was a fun ride. It was my college car, and now those days are behind me. I can't deny the fact I care about speed, but having style, ride comfort and sound quality stereo is something I appreciate more at my age. Besides, I will be boosting this when I pay it off or when the warranty runs out (whichever comes first).

It's been a blizzard here in Denver, so I will take pics today. Be warned the car is not clean! (at least the outside...the inside is always clean!)

 

Here she is...keep in mind it was bloody cold!

I'm digging the black 18's with the black tint. Gives it the sleeper look. I'm looking into replacing the antenna, adding bluebat overlays and eyelids, as well as lowering it...immediately :D

Anyone from the CO area want to get a meet started?
