i think these cars are really fun to drive. i hate how there’s not a lot of aftermarket parts at all for these cars like a 90s honda or mazda has especially for our 14-16 tC models
I have an 9.0 rs 6mt and she’s an amazing car for the cash getting a turbo kit for her and upgrading the flywheel and clutch 😋and get those big brake kit as well 🤞
Hard to resist not turbo-ing my 07 Pearl Azure. Have done basic mods like smoked front and Sped-D Taillights as well as a cold-air intake. OEM spoiler wing makes it feel like a classic.
I got a clean 2010 tC. It’s very reliable, fold the front seats all the way flat and I can get 6 foot metal bed frame and other stuff into it. I didn’t do anything too crazy but replace the headlights (moisture was getting in), get wind deflectors for the windows and highly recommend those round little stick on mirrors because the pillar in back is a huge blind spot. My only gripe is no traction control, wasn’t even offered. And my tint makes parallel parking at night pretty difficult. Also 2010’s burn oil. At the end of the day I recommend the car to any, either generation. Yes it was built in Japan but never FOR Japan so please don’t put jdm stickers on a tC.
@@cjhedrick9254 no idea how hard it was to do, and honestly I haven’t even looked into getting lower pressure shocks. I don’t use the hatch much and there’s no interior anyway
i got an '07, catback, catless headers, takaeda intake and 2in dropped on springs, these are nice lil stanced cars for daily driving
I also have a pearlescent white one. Apple CarPlay, excuse and some mods. I’m never selling mine !
We’re a dying breed so I appreciate u fam🤙🏽
I’m keeping the white one till I’m in the ground

@@shilohsamaniego9696 yeah, the market is literally dying more and more by the year, it’s really sad to watch
The sad fact is Scion has been dead for years
@@Hwan.421 yea, Toyota kinda dropped the ball, if nothing else they could have integrated more that just the FRS into the Toyota line up but 🤷♂️
Got a tC RS8 2013, and I always get compliments on how it looks. myself, not so much :P

@@isaachernandez1547 I feel ya, if it was easy to find kits for a second gen I probably would’ve done it a long time ago

And where did you get all the cf that’s under the hood?????
@@cjhedrick9254 the engine cover is password JDM and the rest is custom
I have seen guys adapt the gen 1 superchargers on the 2nd gen. I mean for me. I want to boost my tC first before anything
@@jordandemarchi1926 that’s fair, I just don’t want to deal with finding a local tuner that knows what they’re doing
Nice car where you get it from? They stopped selling Scions like about 10 years ago.
@@terrancemoore496 used cars are still a thing 😂
@tlamedia_ true.
@tlamedia_ I actually thought the brand was even out of the used car rotation. I remember that TC back in 2006-2010. Congrats!
@@terrancemoore496 eh, they’re everywhere, just a cheap mass produced Toyota
@@tlamedia_ yep, yep. I need to be on the look out of the little van the XB (I believed).
How did you get your hatch on???? I’ve had mine for a year now I just haven’t attempted to put it on
@@cjhedrick9254 I sent it to a shop, ain’t no way I’m transferring glass from one to another myself
@@tlamedia_ how was the wiring and stuff? And did you end up getting low pressure shocks for it or did you use the oem ones?
@@cjhedrick9254 no idea how hard it was to do, and honestly I haven’t even looked into getting lower pressure shocks. I don’t use the hatch much and there’s no interior anyway
Whole lotta carbon
@Thatreleaseseries8.0 😂, it’s building up to be a track car, just needs better tires and it’s ready to rip
What rims are those I might get those for my 2014 lol
@@Shinigamix07 just in case, I’ll say both, the grey cars are stock TC2 wheels and the white car is on konig hypergrams
i wanna hear it!

@@Jmackk567 ew, I’m not gonna daily driving a manual here, the traffic so awful, and my 3rd car is already a manual and a proper sports car
40mpg? downhill maybe lol
@@amok00 not really, I got up to 42mpg cruising the highway on a hour and a half trip
@@tlamedia_so the highway was all down hill? I’m lucky if I get 20 mpg
@@Hwan.421 nope, cause that was going an hour south and driving the same exact way back north
No.
