    Amplifier and Subwoofers

    Im not that much of a tech guru but I believe you will still have to run your remote wire from the head unit anyway. I too thought about using the rear speakers as the input.

    For the Daughter

    The "factory" service is performed by Toyota for the first 2 years or 25,000 miles whichever comes first @ no cost to the consumer. I have a lifetime warranty to which the only stipulation is that I follow the factory service guidelines and that it is performed by an ASE certified mechanic. You...

    1999 Corolla CE - Vibration When Braking

    it is possible. if it only does it when braking, i tend to look @ a braking issue. either a drum or rotor is out of round. usually this is felt in the pedal or steering wheel so your issue is a little weird for me. if it does it while driving, it could be a tire not balanced (sometimes the...

    AC Out

    Not a lot of info to go on but let's give it a shot. Is the car still under warranty? if you are still under the factory bumper to bumper warranty-take it to the dealer. Does the fan speed control work? it is not uncommon for creatures to work their way into the duct system and clog up a fan...

    What Wheel Size?

    part of what ^^^^^^ said is true. OK, first off wheel sizes come in 1/2" increments in the US. such as 17x7, 17x7.5, 17x8 etc....the larger the wheel, the smaller the tire's sidewall to compensate for the larger wheel increase to maintain a speedos sense of the speed. Not all larger wheels are...

    2013 Corolla S - What's a Good Intake?

    i just put the K&N on last week. LUV the sound ( the borla exhaust dont hurt it either). What is it you are looking for? Most big name brands say an extra 6-7 hp but I dont believe it. But my engine is much better, looking @ that big red filter rather than a big black box.

    Wheel Size Question

    the big question is what size are you running now? 15" was std w/ the 16" an option. If in fact you are running the 16" now, you would be able to utilize your existing tires if you plan on going w/ the 16x7

    Brake Failure

    the mixing of fluids "can" be a cause. all brake fluid is not created equal and contaminated fluid is detrimental to any system.

    Celica-Supra Rims

    not without some serious fitting. one is 4 lug, one is 5. wheel ctr bore is about 6mm different. supra utilized staggered fitment. can they fit? they could if you wanted to spend the time and money to make them fit but it wont be cheap.

    1999 Corolla CE - Manual Windows & Locks

    first problem-plastic. cars are not built w/ metal parts anymore if it can be helped and people don't treat the car any different. some people just don't know there own strength. If the door opens "normally" from the outside then I would say that it was just that piece of plastic's time to die...
