After I get I'm debating on what to do next. Here's what I had in mind. I plan on doing them all but just not sure what to do first.
- Coilover (racelands, thought I'd give them a shot and see how they work)
- Wheels (def 18s but not sure whether to do black or a shade of gold/bronze)
- Carbon fiber hood
- Brake upgrade (either stop tech stage 2 or a custome one that I piece together myself)
Thats it for now. I'm thinking of doing the coilovers and brakes first at once. What do you guys think I should do first?

Yeah that's what i'm afraid of myself but so far everyone who has them hasn't had any major issues yet and seeing as though i don't autocross or drive my car like i maniac these seem like they'll be suitable for what i need them for. Either that or i save up for megans or ksports which might take a while.

Well remember the tune that he got from no limit was complete garbage. They had stretched the hell out of his O2 map to the point where it messed up his primary o2 sensor. I loaded it up on my car and it ran like crap. So i stuck with your tune seeing as though it's damn near perfect. Idle i'm at 14.6-15.5 and in boost it stays between 10.8-11.9

i was also told from a couple people to go to no limit bc rob is supposed to be a good tuner for the FIC but when he had problems with his tune it kind of through me off about goin there thats y i was either saving for ptuning or i dont even kno lol

Yea Ricelands are pretty good. I wouldn't trust them for something major like autocross but they work great and I have had no issues minus a loose bolt on my rear strut. I live out on some pretty rough country roads too and they have been able to soak up everything. As for brakes they make generic 4 piston kits also like: http://www.fastscions.com/scion-tc-1...brake-kit.aspx
There is a guy in Houston who used Powerslot adapters with 4 used Wilwood calipers and Powerslut rotors. It's cheaper than getting a legit 'made for tC' setup.

Yeah I really want to do gold rims but i can't seem to find a nice shade of gold that goes well with the BCP. I would love some suggestions seeing as though i suck when it comes to picking out wheels.

Hmmm that doesn't sound like a bad idea. Now i gotta shop around to see where i can get some used calipers.
Thanks man. I never thought i'd see this day as well. If it weren't for these guys it wouldn't never happened.

Yeah man save up and go to ptuning. Its so worth it. Their tunes are so legit and on top of that their customer service is amazing. My boy went there 3 times and each time he had an issue that was messing his tune up and each time they lets us come back without any problems and only charged him once. Thats customer service right there.
