mr. trd master, this is where you come to learn so shut the fcuk up, this is the homework, and by the way, the yokohamas suck, you are makin yourself sound like an idiot, the whole 45, 40, and 35 deal... thats is just the sidewall, you can put 35's on an 18, so dont get it twisted.... duuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhh, you faggot, i got 235/40/18 on a 18x8.5 slammed on h-techs and they dont rub, unless you got the suspension from factory, they're fake!!!!! TRD doesnt whole sale to outside sellers

an this - (17x8 setup with about a +40mm offset on 245/40/17) is perfect for navy life (on h-techs with trd shocks, with the back bump stop cut at 3/4" to a full inch)

and if you rubbin mr. trd master with your setup... you suck at installing

And By The Way, Sway Bars Have Nothing To Do With How Low The Car Is.... They Just Prevent Body Roll

agreed, one thing i liked about this forums is the lack of know-it-all-a-holes, thats a reason why im not on scionlife, too many of them there, i like it here lots better, lets not turn into one of those forums where new people are scared to ask questions people!!

Only a header with a cat. The TRD looses that sweet sound once you open up the exhaust. You can recover some of that sound by going with a large hi-performance resonator.

Go with the TRD exhaust only if you are not going to put on an aftermarket header.

This is going to make all y'all laugh - should I 'cherry-bomb' my ride? I helped my buddy 'cherry-bomb' his Grand Am, and it sounded pretty sweet...

We have 4 cyls, anything that frees up the exhaust is going to take the pitch into beehive territory, its just a part of owning a 4 cyl
