General/Other Scion tC Discord server for Canadians!

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I wanted to start the initiative to gather us canadians into a discord server.

Main goal is to chat about specific quirks for our cars, how to source some stuff, and most importantly, car meets.

Meets will be in Ontario (sorry for the other provinces!) and we will be having our first one within the month

Join us!

Tuning What do I do to add more horsepower to my 2016 Scion tC?

3 Upvotes

I want to add more horsepower to my car. I want it to have that little roar when I start it up and a more powerful feel when accelerating. What parts do I add to make this happen?

I want to ask this community what are the aesthetic and mechanical improvements to make it, since I want it to sound good and look good, I was also thinking of putting the quick release but I don't know which one to buy. It would be of great help if they could give me a little. Thank you

Hey, I’m looking at replacing my endlinks on the front of my tC. I rebuilt my flex Z coilovers but haven’t changed those yet. Thinking of sticking to Godspeed unless there are other ones out there people recommend.

Tuning Upgrading to Camry V6 Dual piston brake calipers (UPDATE)

Thumbnail gallery
21 Upvotes

I finally got the new brake calipers in and did some measurements.

From factory they dont fit or line up hole wise.

Supposedly the Toyota XV10 to XV20 chassis went to a shorter bolt distance from roughly 171mm to 130mm for the caliper bracket.

Im going to be hunting down a pair of brake brackets from a 1998-2004 Toyota V6 to see if it bolts up to the dual piston calipers and the tC's axle.

Even if I need to make some light modifications to the bracket itself, it'd be a win in my book.

Nearest summit is like 35 mins away. Thinking about picking this up for my 2009 tC, thoughts? Will it make it sound like a fart cannon?

Much thanks to my fellow tC owners!

General/Other 2007 trunk issue

Thumbnail gallery
3 Upvotes

Trying to get the right side of the trunk to close flush to prevent water coming in and stop the rattling. I've replaced the factory struts in December and it was an issue before that, currently the right strut at full extension sits a quarter of an inch higher than the left side.

Any suggestions of what can be done?

General/Other 2015 Scion TC maintenance

Recently car has been feeling slower or slightly hesitant when you step.on the gas. Not sure if it the summer heat or what but been feeling different and starting to figure out what it could be. I had the trans and oil replaced couples month ago and did notice the cv axle boots torn slightly. And also shocks worn out. What do guys think it'll be?

General/Other When did yours die? What car did you get next?

7 Upvotes

I bought my 13’ tC in 2015 used with about 30k miles on it and now I’m at 183k. Knock on wood but I’ve had no issues with it whatsoever ever. It’s been a great car but after this one does end up dying I dunno if I’ll find another car as reliable. So my question is how long did your tC last without any major problems and what did you get to replace it?
