Ruimond you're car looks like the Fiesta XR4 . Looks good.
What mods have you done?
From the looks of it springs and rims.
Well i just bought a blue two door yaris from Prosser Toyota. Cant wait till i get it.
Plans for it is to put a sound system in it, then 20% grade tint, then rims and springs. I highly doubt i will do any performance mods as yaris' arent fast at all.

i took the car to shop to do, bcos i do not have tools at home.
by the way, i have also got short shift kit and underdrive pulley on...
after installing underdrive pulley, the car seems to have more power than installing the intake. it is more noticeable.

i can let u to look at intake if u want :P i am free most of the time after work.
i also got the car tinted, the darkest legal tint, of cos, i wanted to have a darker tint, but i do not want to get pulled over.hahaaa:laughabove:

I found out about the forum on google.I am well known in Starlet websites(especially Toyotagtturbo.com),i had 2 of the most powerful starlets in the Uk when i used to live there,ive been in Melbourne for 3 years now.I live near Preston.
Saspy where in Australia are you based?,im very tempted on your offer but dont know how my funds are going to be after i pay for the car when i pick it up.

11-21-2008, 07:39 PM
Well i have finally got my car lowered with Pedders.
Looks much better then before. But will have to wait till the springs settle for it to be slightly lower. Will probably cut the springs cause its not sitting close to the tyres like kings springs does.
Will get pictures later, or it pretty much looks like Ruimonds one.

harveyjai
11-23-2008, 01:20 PM
Mate.
I really, extremely would not recommand you to cut the springs. Unless you are not planning to keep the car in the soon future.

Kings springs has a softer spring rate, maybe thats y it sits lower.

i have king springs they work really well...... i got mine from Wilkinson suspension

lunjiaow
11-26-2008, 05:00 AM
Well its settled now. But i really cant be bothered pulling the springs out again. But yeah, if i were to cut the springs, i would cut half a coil as it would make it sit nicely above the wheel.
I went to Wilkonson Suspension to get king springs, but they didn't have any in stock at the time. I couldnt wait for another week, so i went to Pedders for $240. Installed them at work.

Nice rear tails lights jinxor, pretty bright. Feel sorry for the guy driving behind you.
The dark chrome version would look nicer on my car since its blue. What did it cost you?

New mods to my car are front and rear strut braces by Ultra Racing.
Hard to find any products for the Yaris without costing a fortune for delivery.
Got a 22mm rear swaybar coming in a week or so.

Thanks... theres no way of covering up the railing. :(
Its a rear strut brace. It doesn't really do much besides laying my shirts on them like a clothes line.

They are Recaro Style or JJR (Just Jap Racing) Seats.
Got it for $80. Rails are from the original seats. Only have bucket seat for drivers.

Only changed drivers side cause i was too lazy to make up brackets for the seat.

I have a pair of them. But only problem is they dont recline forward much so its hard to get people into the back. So most likely to get the drivers side in only.

Looks like its for the SCP10? Says on the small pic. Assuming it is for the echo and doesnt fit the yaris. One of the bolt holes looks like it goes to the side. Wouldnt mind it if it does fit the yaris. Whats the price on it?

You would need wider wheels for more traction so you can turn corners faster. Also good tyres will help too. I havent done any performance mods on my car as i have the 2NZ so i dont think its worth doing up. Just doing suspension mods so i can chuck the car around.

Looks like its not just plug in and turn on. I was looking at the DIY and the connectors are more horizontally shaped. Not sure how they are on the Australian ones.

The shape of the one on the tails is kinda more square.

Its supposed to slow down the flash rate of your indicators once you replace LEDs globes with bulbs.

Thats no good, more modification with wiring harness. how fun. Would be swell if it was just plug and play. Will probably have to go to toyota to get the right plugs if they dont fit correctly.

Anyway i just found the plug for yaris tail light. Is the aftermarket tail light plug like that?

ok well i find that when i went to the wider tyres from stock , in the wet i had to slow down a lot or the car just slides of the road... so i should go to 15"/7" from what i have now 15"5.5" ?? i also have the 2nz and doing the same i have the TRD shocks & springs strut brace and sway bar & short shift what eals can i do

lunjiaow
09-18-2009, 11:47 AM
You are probably going too fast on that corner, or you are running low cost tyres. I would go 15x7 if possible but most rims you see are around 6 or 6.5. I have 17x7s and 16x7s. Seem to grip quite well. I dont speed around corners in the wet =P

Sounds like a great suspension combination you are getting. Im sure that's enough to have lots of fun.
You could get a Cold Air Intake and even an exhaust system to make the car sound nice.

You dont say what tyres your running , but i have the same setup almost .
My alloy's are 15x6.5x44et with 12mm rear spacers , with 185x55x15 tyres
great in most conditions except snow ,lol, tyre compund and pressure could
be your problem as well as fitment on the 5.5 rims deforming sidewall too much .

Haha. Yeah i had problems fitting it. I think it was meant for the stock grille. So i ended up cutting most the tabs and left two only and cabled tied it to the mesh. Its been on ever since, been thru the car wash with no problems.

Some photos i took after install today. Took like 2hours or so. Thanks to my friend for the assistance and help. Did most of it myself with his instructions, was kinda scared to. lol

Left headlight clip needed some heatgun action, as it didn't fit as well as the right side. But all good now. :thumbup:

Those stripes look awesome. They dress up the white yaris. How much to get something like that done?

Im not sure how much it cost to do, when i bought my yaris in stock form it came with them from the dealer. But im guessing at least $100-200+ professionally done. I could be wrong though.

You can find the aftermarket projector headlights on eBay. They're available in black or chrome.. haven't seen any in dark metallic grey.

03-10-2010, 05:41 AM
Well if those stripes can be put on for 100-200 that is by far the cheapest but most impressive mod (apart from wheels perhaps).
I have (subject to deal finalisation) a white yaris. So I am thinking of taking those photos to a place and getting mine done like that too.

Anymore photos? Do the stripes do down the back hatch?

As spookz said, yes from ebay. Or there is another site in the US which sells them called depoautolights.

I bought mine from a seller off the aussie ebay, but is no longer a seller there now.

They come in Black and Silver. Most people buy the black. :smile:

Their not to hard to fit, i had some help from my friend with the wiring...just needs to be joint together for the parker lights. But the putting it into place is pretty simple.

No damage here Damo, i was lucky there wasn't any hail in our area. As my car was actually outside during the storm. Some other people i know weren't so lucky, which sucks.

The problem was, I actually expected that the hail would damage my car, so I pulled it under partial cover (Tradelink carpark in Osborne Park)

When the hail did hit, it damaged the roof but only in a few spots at the rear of the car where it was exposed - therefore there really isnt enough damage to warrant paying the excess :(

In hindsight, I probably should have left it all out there and gone for the insurance. The ferocity of the storm in Osborne Park DESTROYED cars in seconds, it was crazy to watch!

For those who arent in Perth and didnt catch this freak storm, this picture would give you some idea...

From my searching previously, I hadn't noticed an Aussie stockist supplying 09 kits yet. SSV in Sydney stocks some Yaris parts though, mostly for the pre-facelift shape.. But if you send them an email they might have connections. Plus, $44 freight from Sydney to Perth through them.

Hello guys !
I'm new in this forum .
I'm looking to change my rims on my Yaris hatchback . (2009 Model )
I was just wondering whether will WORK Cr Kai 16x7.0+44 will work on my yaris and won't rub underneath my car ? I know the best width would be around 6 to 6.5 but it's good to know whether will 7 work .

I'm planning to lower my car as well with either Eibach Pro Kit or Tein S-Tech if possible .

I would prefer original rims and not imitations .
Are there any other recommendations ?

I got them lights from Riverside Auto Spares in Chipping Norton.
It was 200 bucks, but the thing with this type of lights is that after a while the UV coating or the inside coating starts peeling.

08-10-2010, 01:03 AM

you say that the UV coating start peeling. how long did it take before you start noticing it? like 6mths or a year? just wanted to know if its worth buying them. i'm in Casula so Chipping Norton is only few mins away

I noticed mine peeling in two months....if you want value for your money than i would suggest getting the stock light retrofitted with halos. You could get something like this done....

Its the plug circled here. Pin number 2 and its pink. Just have to tap into that. Its a ground so you can run LED strips straight off the battery and connect the ground through that. You can always go through a relay if you want to be safe.
