    2014 Corolla S, questions!

    The beauty of plasti-dip is it's cheap and easy to apply at home. Even if only 18 months pass it can be brand new again in an hour. :-)

    TRD front strut brace is....

    ...installed! Lol...But of a PITA without removing wipers, motor, cowl etc...But got it done. Had to make some slack from wiper motor harness as the brace goes behind it. It's a puzzle of a fit. Lol. Rear brace will be here Monday and must be an easier install. I'll be driving tonight and...

    EXHAUST AND K&N FILTER

    What do you mean by improve? At highway cruising speed, there is barely drone to mention. When the engine is put under load, say a steep incline, there is some drone at 3000 + RPM, then settles down again at cruising rpm. This can be adjusted too I'm sure with vering mufflers. I matched the...

    2014 Corolla S, questions!

    Yes, you can dip them on the car. As stated, just tape off area surrounding the emblem (tape and newspaper). Spray your light coats until color is achieved. You can also remove the emblem (in the back). Its on with 3M or equivalent double sided tape. Paint and reapply.

    Why Did You Buy A Toyota Corolla?

    My current 2014 model was purchased as a result of loving my 09 model so much. My 09 gave me 150,000 miles of trouble free driving! The only reason I traded it in was because I really like the remodel of the 2014(11th gen). To answer the question, "why a corolla", there are many reasons; in...

    Need options on lowering springs

    mine sits on the Eibach springs...Im happy with them, and if the factory ride quality has been effected I cant tell. Get a good alignment after lowering as well.

    lowering springs

    since you have decided on the Megan brand, my input on my Eibachs will do you no good. :-( But I can tell you they do not rub with 4 people in the car...Id never subject a 5th to the crowded back seat lol

    Ultra Racing

    I was looking at throwdown for the UR rear brace...But looking toward eBay for the TRD front strut brace. Thought I'd start here as those alone will run $300+. Lol.

    Ultra Racing

    So I just want to sum this up as there is conflicting information then its corrected...strut tower braces, front and rear, they fit the 2014 Corolla no problem? Im going to order them now, lol. And even tho the websight says its for a 2012, its no trouble? Great job on this Chris!

    Toyota Corolla One of the most expensive cars to insure!!!

    I chatted up my last insurance agent just before I switched to another company (due to 2 price increases in 12 months. no tickets, clean record), his "story" was premiums across the board going up. Due to, 1) higher priced replacement parts and 2) accidents occurring more often doing more...

    Toyota Corolla One of the most expensive cars to insure!!!

    I cant say with 100% certainty, but it seams I recall a time when the Corolla was up there on the list of most stolen vehicles in the U.S. If this is true then that is the reason for the increase in insurance premiums.

    Check engine light.

    IF the code is caused by the fuel cap, it is not stored in the ECM memory as a priority code. These can be deleted by disconnecting the battery for up to 15 mins. Priority codes, however would not be deleted by this. However, as stated above, you want to know what the trouble code is simply...

    Tints

    Neither your tint nor your licence plate cover is legal here...lol...but I aint mad at ya. IMO there comes a level of tint that is too much. For me, it would impair night driving to a degree. Looking for street signs, building addresses and the sort. Each their own.

    EXHAUST AND K&N FILTER

    Im still going back and forth over this one. Had the Typhoon on the computer screen, CC# typed in and backed out. Seams like the reviews on this are 50/50 for whether or not it throws the CEL. Yours was obviously a success?

    EXHAUST AND K&N FILTER

    Even with just the muffler replaced, the 2 resonators under the car, by design, are muffling the exhaust note. When these resonators are replaced with one of a flow thru design(Magnaflow) or similar brand of your choice, the sound will be changed. IMO, its still a clean sound. No popping or...
