Canada NEWBIE to TN! Hello all!!!

Hello all!!

I've had my '99 Corolla for about 6 years now and just discovered you guys like a month ago. This place is awesome.

I live in the GTA area, and racked up 210K on the odometer! (26K of it is non-original)
Problems galore. Never buy a previous rental car no matter how good the price looks.

So far, I've changed:
Rear passenger side lock mechanism @ 65K
Water pump @ 70K
Starter @ 110K
Alternator @ 170K
Front and rear motor mounts @ 185K
Front struts @ 205K
Front stabilizer links @ 206K

and some more minor things I can remember.

I've always had a K&N drop in filter but never really noticed any difference until I met up with one of the members to purchase a strut bar. The guy gave me some awesome tips.

With his advise, I tighened the throttle body cable so that theres no play (lots of play before), and removed the intake manifold housing up to the airbox... MAN what a difference! Makes a nice sound too.

Thanks guys!

Ah, so you've taken the red pill...good, Welcome to the fold!
Whatever questions you have about your Toyota can almost ALWAYS be answered
here in the forums.
From Engine to Exterior, someone here has been through it, so don't be afraid to ask
questions.
Check out the gallery, there's some pretty sweet rides in there.
The Arcade is cool also.
Have fun!
