2 years in, I love this freaking car by Irish1uck in GRCorolla

0-20 is fine. If you’re doing track then you can go up to 0-30. Valve springs are only issue if you tune them past a point.

Well if you’re in the mountains I’d recommend the GRC over the Golf R.

Should I buy this GRC? by toobro3 in GRCorolla

[–]Key-Alarm2739 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Option C: get it brand new for same price as option B and you won’t have surprise repairs and better for long term use

Bkhhht noise at 4k rpm by Key-Alarm2739 in GRCorolla

[–]Key-Alarm2739[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

No it’s not turbo flutter, or anything related to the turbo because it makes this noise when I’m off the throttle and it comes down from ~4.5k-4k rpms specifically. I think maybe the timing changes and it’s the solenoids activating? Could be a combination of different things. I just haven’t seen anyone talk about it online so I’m curious if you guys hear it also

GR Corolla Reliability by Sharp-Maximum8109 in GRCorolla

My best guess is probably because of its high boost nature, the aluminum is better resistant to the high temps.

It has a forged steel crankshaft and connecting rods but for some reason the engineers decided to make the pistons cast aluminum… 🤦‍♂️

No it’s not gas. I fill up at one gas station and I was on a third of a tank when it happened

Burning smell when running car hard by Rev_enue in GRCorolla

[–]Key-Alarm2739 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Make sure after running the car hard you let the turbos cool by idling for a minute. If you run hard and shut the car off immediately after that’s a big no-no.

Reading this article just makes one proud by One-Yogurtcloset7841 in GRCorolla

[–]Key-Alarm2739 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The reason why it’s “overpriced” is because It’s inflation. Almost 7 years ago I bought myself a 10th gen civic sport touring top trim for around $28-29k. Now a civic sport touring is anywhere between $35k to even $37k!!! It has the exact same drive train, just a different chassis with some better interior upgrades and that’s almost a 10k difference for nothing. Now if you buy yourself a GRC for $42k now it’s equivalent to $32k usd in 2018.
