40% OFF TRD Parts 4/4 ONLY
 

Didn't see this posted on this forum yet. Toyota is celebrating the 40th Anniversary of TRD so most of their parts are 40% off.
For example a new TRD Exhaust is only $635 at Tustin Toyota. TRD Springs are $147.
I know some people don't use social media so they probably don't know about this so here ya go!

Thanks for posting this. I hadn't seen it.


Side note: anyone know if TRD wheel center caps are the same size as stock wheel center caps?

Found out about this 2 days ago and was waiting. Finally ordered me some springs for around $173 shipped.


Now I'm worried about pairing old shocks with new springs.

You'll be fine the drop is about 1inch which is fine for stock shocks and also depending on how miles you have on the car. If they end up blowing pick up some MY2017+ shocks and you'll be good to go.

I've heard about this concern but I always wonder how much of a problem it actually is.
I used to have a Corolla XRS, dropped it on Tien S tech springs (the drop was quite big, something like 2 inches due to the car's insanely high stock ride height, resulting in a fist sized wheel gap) and kept the OEM shocks (never changed them)

I never had shock issues with the car over the course of around 8-9 years.

I'm curious about Canadian sales.

Yeah I chose TRD over RCE Yellows since it has a 1'' drop. I have about 45k miles. Looked up the "average" mileage for shock replacement and it's around 50k to 100k mark.



I'm not overly concerned about compatibility, mostly wondering if my "old shock" might die sooner than expected so I'd had to get new shocks after getting new springs.

Personally, even 50K seems too less to me. Maybe i just havent seen any shocks go bad at 50K but that all depends on a person driving habits, roads, tracking/autoX etc. I would say after 100K is a reasonable time to change, but if theres no issues i wouldnt worry about replacing them.

I am at 120,000 miles on RSR Superdowns which give a 1.7 inch drop on stock dampers and have no issues. An inch is no big deal to shocks.

Same, I suppose I could always ship to ogdensburg and pick up from there if need be.

Nice. If I was in the market for wheels right now, those 17" forged TRD wheels would be calling my name.

How are you getting that much of a drop on RSR Superdowns?


Approximate lowering I see is 25-30mm front and 30-35mm rear on product descriptions.

Never really figured that out. The 1.4 on paper is not accurate when the actual height is measured against a stock car on the same surface. The front is close to 1.4" and the rear 1.7". Now of course when talking fractions of inches the measuring could be off a hair but no matter how we looked at it we came up with larger numbers than the spec sheet says.

Does this apply to Canada?

I wonder if the TRD BBK is also on promotion... wouldn’t that be gravy

So do you have to go to the dealer to do this? Do you order on line? Is there a code? I called my local dealer's parts dept and he had no idea what I was talking about.

You order online only. https://toyota.us/TRD40

Ok, so this sucks. I guess it's subject to dealer availability and my closest dealer that's participating is over 500 miles away!

I was ready to buy the exhaust and lowering springs. D:

no short shifter... wtf..

Poop...no TRD 86 spoiler.

Showed up on mine...

that's the fake one haha

this is the real deal

Order Online, I tried looking at my closest dealer but they weren't on there so the next closest one was 45 miles away. It's being delivered to my place though.

Called around. The only option would be to order through US. How you'd get the item(s) though is what I'm scratchy about.

I have a US address set up just across the border for orders that only ship within the US, through a company called NAC logistics. It ships to their warehouse and is stored via the address ID associated with the account. They bill you a small fee for holding the item.

Check for similar businesses just over the border near you. If it's a viable drive then it could save you some money.

I am _ close to clicking submit on some of the 17" trd matte grey wheels...


$900 ... not much that compares for that kind of price.


Figure I can probably sell them used for that anyway if I change my mind in a year.

Ok so yeah - I was able to order the springs from a Birmingham dealer to be shipped to my house. I actually called them about the exhaust because the website says it's for pick up only. Thing is, they don't actually have them on property so they're being shipped to the dealer from somewhere. He's looking to see if they can reroute the shipment to a local dealer instead.

Ya, I convinced myself by the time I finished posting that.. I bought them :)

Crossing the border with an exhaust in my car though? lol. Might just give up on this one.

Go for it! I mean... what's the worst that can happen? :)


Seriously though... there was a netflix docu show about the Canadian border crossing and after watching that i'd be 100% confident you won't have any issues.

Meh, too much time and effort just to save a few hundred dollars. I also wasn't looking at an exhaust just yet, this sale just had me jaded.

I agree, this kind of sale doesn't come along very often. Got me to act on the wheels, but I'd been on the fence with those for 6 months.
I also considered the exhaust as $600 is a pretty good deal, but ultimately I like the perrin 2.5" resonated better. It actually sounds more like a sporty stock exhaust to me than the TRD one. I test drove an 86 with the TRD exhaust when I was shopping for my car and wasn't impressed.

I’m looking at getting the TRD exhaust, however, I go over 8-9 “smallish” speed bumps a day.

Anyone lowered on TRD springs (or lower) have scraping issues on the bend around the rear diff. with their TRD exhaust?

Every
Single
Day


I come off a small rise at my local coffee shop drive through and hear "tink" every morning. Doesn't matter how slow I go or what angle I take it at it just touch's. I haven't had much issue with speed bumps so there is just something about the make up of the lump. No real damage although you can tell it hits because that spot is nice and clean. I wouldn't worry about it really.

Unfortunate. I was low key hoping you’d respond since I recall seeing a screenshot you had taken of that particular bend.

Looks like I’ll most likely wait until I move out of my current complex. :iono:

lol I get that. I literally saw it and said to my self "you don't need TRD springs this summer" about three times.


The TRD is just a axleback right?
You could have that puppy installed in 45 minutes across the border. then do whatever you want with the factory axleback.

TRD is a catback.

Yes, yes you do need the springs heh. Springs are next week for me.

You do NEED the TRD springs and the sway bars. I drove mine 300 miles before putting them on and that was too long.

I have TRD Springs and Exhaust and have never noticed any scraping.

Sweet - the guys at Limbaugh Toyota in Birmingham will ship the exhaust to me. Freight's less than 40 bucks!

He says it's now on backorder so it'll be a couple weeks, but that's too good a deal to pass up.

It is fine. Like I said it is one particular spot and it hardly touches. don't recall bouncing that part off any speed bumps. The front and the middle of the car yes. The rear not so much.
