I am very interested to find out when there will be a larger market for trd products. I am itching to get some mods but I dont want to void my warranty... Any ideas when?

I've asked the parts manager up here in the great white north and all they can tell me is "should have something by March"

Check with Carson Toyota. They have been able to get TRD/Japan parts.

TRD Japan parts WILL void your warranty (if you have a problem a service tech thinks he can blame on those parts). TRD of Japan is considered a wholly separate company from Toyota of America, and thus TRD of America. Ever wonder why our catback exhausts are so different?

Lolol stick on japan trd rear deck spoiler, toyota American tech says it will cause undue stress on engine causing it to fail. I can totally picture this happening.

Has to be proven that the part was the reason for the failure, so basically depends on what the mechanic says.

My car before my fr-s was a tc and I had a couple of upgrades... the parts people told me that I could get trd parts and they would not void warranty as long as they where put in by a toyota certified mechanic. Kinda sucks cause I enjoy putting in the wrench time myself but its whatever
