i'm not gonna be installing many mods myself...so is it a good idea to invest in the TRD struts/shocks, lowering springs, sway bar, and wheel and tire package? or should i look at different brands? or just simply find them somewhere else?

plz help

 

Nothing Wrong WIth TRD


Are you really 14!?!?

 

Look at his signature... Whether it's true or notLOL

 

oh wow he's gots a plan for the next 2 years

 

and by the responses so far .. i doubt he would come back here to aks anymore question when he did finally get it...

anyhow... NOBnol23 .. TRD part are very decent.. they are not as extreme as some of the other stuff out there but they are very good...

im personally running the trd springs and rear swaybar... maybe when the factory struts die ill invest in the trd struts..

 

I have TRD struts, sway, and springs. No complaints here.

 

say.....would I be wrong to say if TRD is possibly the best for purely street driving and anything other then that is overkill....

 

TRD is good all purpose/sport setups

 

yeah...i am,lol, i found out about this site through scion and immediatley joined, and i do want a scion in 2 yrs and mods out the door.....so i'm savin,lol

 

damn now heres a kid with a bright lookin future...i should have started savin money for a car when i was 14....

 

Hell i should have started saving when I was 19!

its a good idea to save up for a scion starting at 14, you work yet or still doin the lawn thing? Everything I've heard is that the TRD stuff is good for street... its not too extreme (which you probably dont want for a daily driver) but still handles good.... But I have no first hand experience, so I dont know how much my words are worth...

 

You can look to my review of the TRD Springs and Sway bar vs TRD Springs, TRD Shocks, and Hotchkis Sway bars here... https://www.scionlife.com/forums/vie...887&highlight=

 

i betcha his parents are going to pay for his car or at least help him out a good bit and maybe w/ his mods to. lol. don't take it personally, that's what i went through w/ my first car. if not and you're paying for everything, that's good more respect to you.

 

TRD makes the TC more "japanese".......

 

Um.. how? 98% of TRD parts for the tC, or any toyota in america is made in the states, not overseas. TRD has jdm and usdm products and support offices. Doesn't mean all products made by them are jdm. If you wanted a more jdm tC, you should do research in other companies.

Trd is a good company if you don't want a straight peformance style car. Most of their products are a little pricey for what they are compared to others, but their products aren't that bad as far as quality goes. Most go with TRD because of warranties, but as i keep telling people. Don't be scared of warranties. I'm not going to explain it because i've done it 1,000 times already.

Anyway, good luck. And you are a bright kid for 14, wow.

Cya

 

TRD, never had them- only Eibach prokit and Sprint linear. I will probably get them or the Hotchkis.
