Has anybody here installed one of these in their car and what’s your opinion on it?

I joined the subreddit a couple months back when I put the order in for my car and what I was welcomed with as I scrolled for the first time was post after post about the shipping blocks. I was determined for this to not happen to me, so I got a hold of my sales person and told her that I wanted to have the shipping blocks in-hand when I took delivery.

I walked into her office on the day and there they were, sitting on her desk. So, thank you all for possibly saving me a little pain later on. She had not heard of it, while someone else on her team had heard of it happening on a Supra they had sold. Turns out, it sounds like the whole sales team got a little lesson in GR cars and their shipping blocks that day, so I'd like to think I helped spread the good word, throughout that dealership, at least.

Obligatory photo of the actual car on slide 2. I'm going to pass 100 miles today and I'm absolutely in love.

Hey guys, been lurking on this subreddit for the past year and a half but just wanted to say thank you to everyone who's posted and given information! It's been super helpful for a GR novice like me. I've had my GR over a year now and have definitely been able to find lots of info here when I've been stumped. Also it makes driving everyday sooo much fun. Here's a few pics of my little one after a clean this weekend. Hope everyone has a great day!

GR performance exhaust video:

People were asking how this exhaust sounds, so here is a quick freeway drive. Wait til 50 seconds (when you see a tesla brake check), you should hear all 3 at once:

1. downshift

2. BOV

3. Exhaust backfires

I posted a cold start and idle video on the GRC forums:

I got my Weds Sports TC105x DSR’s wrapped in Michelin PS4S 265/40/18 on the car and I’m obsessed with how it turned out! To get it all to fit, I had to add 4 of Toyota’s OEM crash bolts (#90105-17015) for more camber up front to clear without rubbing since I am on Eibach lowering springs. Without the added camber, any bump I hit had a lot of rubbing going on up front. Now I don’t rub and I’m sitting at 3.3-3.5 degrees of negative camber up front and 2.5 in the rear. Also I kept the rear factory 10mm spacer.

Took my GR Corolla camping down in Seward, AK. It’s about 127 miles to get there and the best thing is the ECO mode. It definitely helps out with longer trips. Spent four days camping at our reserved site with amazing view of the beautiful ocean. Spent my time sleeping in my car which is not too bad to sleep in with the back seat down. Highly recommend getting a cargo box to free up space in your car.

Two of the best views.

I added the B pillar door edge seals and the silicon seal around the latches. Whole deal was about 20 bucks. Added maybe 6 ounces of weight. The wind noise and rattles were greatly reduced and or eliminated. I love this car but some of the rattles get old hearing. Im not saying this is a fix all. I am not endorsing a brand. Im just stating my personal experience.

Extra 25¢ off for the 4th. Couldn't say no to that! $3.12 a gallon E85 😁

I love the look of the front bumper on the touring car. Any way to purchase the shroud or whole bumper?
