Thumbs up 2013 White tC build and mods

Here is an update on the build...

Current mods: as of 3:13:13

Cusco strut tower bar
Megan Racing lowering springs
Eibach camber kit
EBC rotors
Greddy EVO 3 exhaust, axle back – Installed 3-12-13
Aftermarket installed Factory wing
TRD quickshifter
TRD shift ****
Yokohama performance tires
Factory option Bespoke Radio
Custom installed floor lights
Tinted Windows 20% front, 5% rear
NIA headlight eye lids – color match to car
Spec-D tail lights
Injen cold air intake
XXR 530 wheels 18x8.75

Partial Sponsors!!:Check them out!!!!
ANDY'S AUTO SPORT
CLUTCH MASTERS

I just bought my tC the end of October. From dealer I had the interior light kit put on and the rear wing mainly for fitment purposes. I since have installed the TRD exhaust, TRD quick shifter, TRD hurst style shift ****, And the K&N drop in air filter.

I have ordered the Megan Racing lowering springs to drop it 1.4" in front and read to keep the stance. Seems like a lot of the springs companies for our car want to make it flat by lowering the back further than the front.
Being a auto mechanic and loving my Aero styles I want to keep the stance the factory gives. I also ordered the Eibach camber kit to make sure she has a proper stance.

Also on its way is the Cusco strut tower bar
Dezod green 4-1 headers
And gauges for monitoring purposes until I can afford the Descendant or Dezod turbo

Windows are scheduled to be tinted on 1-10-13
20% in the front and 5% in the rear.

Spec-D rear tinted tail lights in the near future

Custom painted front bumper, high gloss black

Looks nice bro but why spend so much money on headers if your planning on going turbo ?

Not sure if I want to turbo or not yet. That's why I haven't bought them. Or decided. Just possibilities right now. Mdesimo514 I got the plate and **** both from ebay. The **** is actually for a Toyota Tacoma. Thank you both though. I most likely won't go with the headers

I have glow shift oil pressure and water temperature gauges on their way. I bought a universal fit a-pillar from glow shift but it's too small I can't find one for our tc2. Does anyone know if the a-pillar is the same size in the tc1?

The A-pillars are not the same size and there are no a-pillar pods available for the TC2. The best solution is to fiberglass pods onto the factory a-pillar

I'm not the best with molding fiberglass. I was thinking more like cutting the holes into the center console and doing a custom gauge pod right in the middle where the 12v is. I like doing custom work and making it unique so I guess I'm going to end up going that way again.

Haha yeah I know. It's getting a tad bit dirty. Damn liquid salt they put on these PA roads constantly gets on the car. I feel like I wash it and its filthy again the next day. Haha. Thanks though. I have a few more things in mind. I constantly feel like I can make it better

I love your mods!

I was looking for the same shift **** for my 2012 tC but I couldn't find any review confirming it fits since it's made for Tacoma and Cruiser.

Is it this P/N: PTR26-35060?

Just want to make sure.

Thanks in advance!

Yes that is the same one. It will definitely fit. If you have seen my picture up top it gives a little bit of a gap under it where you can see the white clip. But I still think it looks good. Thanks again I am trying to get a few more things done. Hopefully have pics up soon.
