    I think this should become a thing, initial impressions are great but I wanna hear about the car every milestone mile mark, so we get a better sense of how it performs throughout the life of the vehicle.

    • @CarQuicks

    I would hope that the clutch wouldn’t have issues at 30k miles! I put 165k miles on the original clutch of a 2000 ford focus and currently 157k on the clutch in my 2016 ford focus st. I work a gearbox like nobody’s business. I was disappointed in my 2006 Acura RSX type S as it only got 75k miles from the clutch and it was far superior to the 2000 focus I traded in for it:( then it was cut short of its life when a giant buck jumped into it doing 70mph on the highway with 164k miles on it in December of 15 which is when I bought the ST. Looking in the next year or so to get a new one. Looking at the gr Corolla , integra type s or the Lexus is 350 f sport awd or possibly the golf R.

    • @CarQuicks
      @CarQuicks  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Everything you said is how it should be on manual cars. Long lasting clutches, but you would be surprised how many people have burned the clutch up on this car.
      Hard launches, hard driving, bad driving and I've seen the complaints enough times I get asked if these clutches are bad. I simply say those people can not drive and/or they've had a very unfortunate series of events.

    I’m considering switching from a 21 STI to this. I loved the Evo IX and I heard the GRC is similar to it. The STI, even with coils/swaybar, doesn’t seem to handle quite like the Evo. Do you think it’s worth it to switch?

    • @CarQuicks
      @CarQuicks  หลายเดือนก่อน

      I came from a STi Hatchback, not a 2021, but I have a love for STi's as well. For me, the allure here was the hatchback and being AWD (yes I know the Golf R exists), but I wanted something more raw, connected, similar to the older STi's and Evo's. For me this answers all those desires.

    Love this video, my man, I watched your 9,000-mile video. I missed the 15,000-mile one, so I'll have to check that out, but I am almost at 4,000 Miles with my 2024 GRC Core. I'm absolutely enamored with it and can't wait to see how my love for it grows when I hit 30,000 miles like you. I appreciate you calling out because people have weird preconceived notions about the car or may even over-hyped it. It's just a very sexy, very sporty daily. It's a Corolla, but it has 300HP and a turbo. The interior must only be insane if you're willing to drop extra cash for the Premium, Circuit, or Morizo edition. I just got it ceramic coated with a 6-year warranty. I was surprised at the tire life you mentioned, and I will have to look into getting some new tires. I'm unsure if you've seen them, but the Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 would be an excellent tire for this car with the recommended size.

    I have had my GR carolla since December 2023 and I love it. The only problem I’ve come across is with the headlights being too low which limits how far in front of the car the light reaches. It really deters me from driving at night cause it’s just unsafe . I have used the height adjustment switch in the car and they are up as high as they can go. I really need the highest position (1) to be midrange on the switch (3) my question is has anyone else had this problem and if so, have you corrected the problem and how?

    • @CarQuicks
      @CarQuicks  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You are actually the first person I've heard, mention this issue for driving at night. I've driven at night a lot with the car, but have never felt the light beam was too low.
      This could also be my experience with dealing with low sitting cars. For a fix, the only thing I could think of is getting in contact with custom headlight builders (plenty on Instagram) and specifying a unique setup that matches your needs.

      @CarQuicks  9 วันที่ผ่านมา

      With the GRC you do not need to tune right away. Matter fact, I've been running for thousands of miles. One thing to know, the GRC ECU is capable of learning and modifying fuel/air on the car after modifications.
      A small amount, but there is a change and one that has been documented by tuners on this platform.
      Obviously to benefit from everything, you will want to tune to get maximum potential.

    Wanting to pick up a Blue Flame 2024 Circuit Edition, I'm terrified of the forged carbon roof though.

      @CarQuicks  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Depends on your end goal. Both cars are capable, but personally I never buy a car under the idea of what is cheaper to modify. If I don't like how it looks, just the simple, I wont buy it.
      Aftermarket potential or how much parts cost is not my first factor in buying a car, I have to first like looking at it in stock form. Everything else can be achieved, some might cost more than others, but the overall foundation is the most important.

    Bro i run a restaurant and deliver 100+ person catering orders with this car regularly. It has good storage you just have to give up the back seats. if you build a custom mount you can move the battery to the right store it there; and drop a piece (2 pieces) of custom cut plywood and a rear seat delete and wind up with storage similar to a pickup. Add some cheap car carpet in black and bam it looks sick and is huge storage

    • @CarQuicks
      @CarQuicks  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      One thing to note is that All_season tires of any kind, even if touted as performance grade, will not compare to the summer/performance variant of that tire. The Continental tire I'm running is not an All Season, with the 245 sizing it performs amazing. The responsiveness and grip are a better in my driving.

    i know you did tons of research before buying the gr corolla, but just super curious in Texas where you dont get extreme winter like here in canada why did you not choose the FL5 type R instead? what steer you away from type R?

    • @CarQuicks
      @CarQuicks  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +13

      I actually drove an FL5 Type-R a few times and considered it. However, I'm not a big fan of FWD cars, even without winter, the dynamics on how FWD cars react compared to RWD or AWD, isn't my go-to formula. Extremely capable cars, and in all daily duties, one wouldn't really tel it was FWD.
      Also, for me, my last car was a Honda S2000. For me that was a pinnacle of true sports car. I also previously owned a WRX STi hatchback and wanted to get back to that formula.
      Lastly, in the realm of unique cars, the FL5 is familiar in the sense of the motor being the same from the FK8, with suspension tweaks to up its abilities on the track. Track racing wasn't on my list of needs. When I look and drive the GR Corolla, the character of its 3-cylinder, the response of the AWD system on the backroads, the sounds, rawness of the whole car, resonated with me like the days of Evo 8/9s and Subaru. To me this is the last of a truly unique sport compact car.

      I wouldn't worry too much about the track and warranty concerns some have brought up. I can count on one hand the stories I've heard, and you can see hundreds if not thousands of owners who are regularly at the track or have tracked their car. Just visit the forums to find a real ownership experience.
      There are dealerships who are readily selling at MSRP. I advise anyone to use Facebook and join groups for the GR Corolla and places like NO MARKUP TOYOTA, those groups will have you in an MSRP GR Corolla in a day.
      Size is relative to what your needs are, but for reference I'm 6'3", married, 3 kids, and I'm regularly putting everyone in the car to go somewhere and for myself, its ample room and space. I just completed a road trip to NY/Northeast, packed with all things and 2 kids for over 2 weeks.

I’m thinking of an oil cooler cause it reaches 220 on some hard street driving! Also have you ran into third gear grinding?

    • @CarQuicks

      Normal temp is around 220, but that from my research in this motor isn’t high enough to warrant a cooler. I’ve also only kept it to the same oil, due to my understanding of the tolerances built into the engine.
      But sustained track and hard driving I see where a different oil comes into play.
      As for grinding I’ve never experienced it. I also run and aftermarket pitch mount from SXTH Element and a shirt shifter that combines two. One from BilletWorkz the other from RacerX.

      I'm going to agree with what @sagiru replied and said.. yes I initially heard that sound, and do think a part of it is based on the AWD drivetrain and components, but the tires are playing a huge role in this to me. I ran the Michelin's to 24-25K miles, on a roadtrip to New Orleans I could hear a lot of road noise and that droning the entire way.
      However, when I replaced the tires for Continental I have not experienced that sound. I may have a little, but I'm having a hard time remember or thinking of an instance where I heard the same noise getting more and more prominent as the miles went on.
      This is all a theory. I have done a few roadtrips with the Continental tires and the sound I heard going through New Orleans has not been apparent.

    I looked at a GR Corolla but for the same price and zero percent interest, I ended up with a Subaru Ascent Limited, lifted, KMC Wheels, AT tires, brush bar, brake controller, molded floor mats, and tuning port. I’ve since deleted the mufflers and did a down pipe. Waiting for a pro tune, but currently out runs my son’s stock 2021 WRX. I have yet to run a GR Corolla.😂

      Too much fun. I had a Cop laughing at me downshifting through an intersection when is was popping. My children pointed him out😬

    Why would anyone buy a car like that then lower it? I dont know how many people been to Pennsylvania but that grolla would be destroyed by the roads if it had a lowering kit. Driving that car stock in the snow would damage the grill too

      You definitely need to know what your area is like... out here in Texas, at least my area, roads are flat and smooth. Plus we don't have winter. But, I lived on the East Coast too, and we had lowered cars, you just pay CLOSE attention and memorize the bad roads, and don't drive it in the winter. Lol.

    30k?
    Don’t you think
    You’re too big for that compact car?
    It might affect your mpg and the aerodynamics performance. You're really pushing that little car to its limits; perhaps you should consider upgrading to a V8.

      You'll be surprised to hear I hate large, big cars. Car size is an American construct, we don't need bigger cars. But as for this motor, the 3-cylinder part is bit new to most people, which I get them thinking more cylinders will somehow produce a better MPG or longevity... it all depends on how its engineered.
      Now if your goal is power, like a lot of it, yes more displacement will be your friend, especially when you introduce forced induction.
      Comparing what I've modified here, over 300 to the wheel, over 300 foot pounds of torque, the motor lets say is around 350HP, maybe a little more, under 3500 pounds weight, comparing say, a Charger Scat Pack at 485HP, weighing a little under 5000 pounds... I have a nice time playing around with them in my city. Lol.
      But for me, even at my size, I don't need space. I also don't carry my kids in this car regularly, so I put the seat far back, and my legs (at 6'3") are stretched out... nice and comfortable.
