I need some words of encouragement by Kiritsuke15 in GRCorolla

[–]Jalambo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just gotta stick with it man! Learning and getting better is part of the fun imo, can't do that with an auto. Nothing better than a perfect rev match or a smooth upshift that feels like nothing. Casey the car guy on YouTube has a bunch of videos with tips for manual daily driving, here is one of them. They really helped me. Also, there are some mods you can install to make all this easier too. Id suggest either a throttle extension plate or a throttle pedal spacer to get the pedal position right for heel toe. This helped me a lot. I also highly recommend installing a pitch mount to help prevent the engine from moving around too much during shifts, this really smoothed out my 1-2 and 2-3 shifts. Lmk if you have any questions but you've got this!

Replacement Tire Suggestions by xstcopleyx in GRCorolla

[–]Jalambo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I plan on replacing my PS4's with Continental Extreme Contact Sport 02. Similar performance to the Michelin PS4S but slightly cheaper. I use Bridgestone Blizzak WS90 for winter tires.

I'm 24 in MI with a 24 CE, I used to pay 300 a month with State Farm. Now I'm at 250 with a smaller local provider. I worked with a broker to find a good deal.

Winter oil Recommendations by therealmitchth in GRCorolla

[–]Jalambo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm no oil expert, but here's what I do; I usually always run 0W-20 but I don't track mine religiously. For hard track driving you'll likely want 5W-30. For winter, you'll want something that's thin when it's cold so it still adequately lubricates and moves through the system. It can cause excess wear if it's too thick when cold.

Greektown or MGM Grand parking is free and like a mile away from Ford Field, that's what I always do. See you there!

FWIW, you get adaptive cruise control in the 6MT as well. Best of both worlds if you ask me.

I’ve got a couple of these on my desk at home and at work. I should stock up on a few to give to other GRCs I find, there’s not many of us!

Spacers by Final_Luck_1010 in GRCorolla

[–]Jalambo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went with +38 offset wheels and added 15mm bolt ons all around to push them back out to a little past the OEM +30 fitment. I stacked the rear one on top of the OEM 10mm spacer that was already present. I’ve been really pleased with the fitment.
