any suggestion guys?? will fit or not?.,...i emailed the company and they said it would fit np! but just havin my doubts b 4 i spend 200AUD on it

[the_saint]

Anything can fit...it's just a matter of how creative you can be.

I'm sure any decent exhaust shop would be able to weld an adapter and/or bend some pipe to make it work.

[hasher22]

i hope your right..........though i dont want no damn exhuast thats gonna be fitted diagonal!..... i like the straight look.

[the_saint]

but diagonal is dorfito style :laugh:

[hasher22]

.................................................. .................. :) me bro is into the whole angle exhaust style. Thats him not me.....when i see a car with that style i keep thinkin that the exhaust is too big for the car so they had to put it on an angle....

ok well ill get it, i can always exchange it :)

[ChinoCharles]

It has a 3" inlet, but I know the Yaris has a smaller diameter exhaust tubing than that... not sure specifically what it is, but I don't think that muffler is going to fit without modification.

I agree... and an angled DOUBLE exhaust like that? It would just look retarded.

Still, I also think you will need some pretty intense piping and welding work to get it to fit perfectly, better find a reputable workshop to handle that!

[hasher22]

YA! though my mate installed a 3" muffler to his 2005 Corolla and its on straight...though i might go to his installer which is just around the corner from here. Hope fully they can install it with no hassles and it will be on straight.

And hopefully i dont need to install a silencer... :)

[hasher22]

Hey people!! Its installed......the muffler of course!! Anyway i am very very very very very very very very............................very happy with it!! :) :)
Sound clips will be cummin soon!

It was a tight squeeze, the mechanic made new pipes and brackets so it would fit the little thing. He also cut off the 3" end so it would fit!

[mikeukrainetz]

Nice. I like.

Would look even better out the center.

[Katana]

Yeap the center would be ideal.

[the_saint]

Nice! Angled would have looked better http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v297/mlsaint78/SMILEYS/blum.gif j/k



How does it sound? Post up a sound clip if you can.

[hasher22]

Hahah the angled look..now that would be funny with the twins. Anyway heres a little clip from inside the car! I was driving so i couldnt hold the camera straight....and the popping sound is the camera just moving about.

Though i really hate the idea of puttin it in the middle....just looks uncommon. Not my styles at all... :)

[Black Yaris]

I do like the deep tone our cars produce with an upgraded exaust... not that ricey fart can sound you see kids in civics runnin around with, can't tell if it is a dirtbike or civic with a fart-can

[hasher22]

I think it depends on the muffler/exhuast ur gettin.......I think if i baught a $40 exhaust i would have that farty light sound, instead of the deep bassy clear sound.

Though my sharkfin antenna and sports grille should be here this week!! My Sports grille is in da post office!! Cuz i have a tracking number for it....i cant wait!!!! AHHHHHHH HURRY UP STUPID POST PEOPLE!!!

yea i'd venture to say at higher RPM's a cheapy exaust would sound fartcannish.... still not civic fartcan, though!

[hasher22]

[hasher22]

Ok BIG PROJECT for me...


Im planning to paint all my badges white........The question is what Spray Paint do i need to use and what primer and all that!!

Plus some of the adhesive will obviously rip apart from the badges, so what is an alternate adhesive to use to stick them back on!??

THANKS!!

I plan to paint them flat black too (orange Yaris). To remove 'em, take your hair dryer at heat 'em up, the Yaris and the Toyota badges pull off easily, the mid badge is more sticky and has two small pins. This way you keep the adhesive intact: just put them back once painted :thumbup:

No badges at this moment:

[hasher22]

Yup yup... though what kind of paint do i use, and i need to gloss them up after :(

[Jem_hadar]

sharkfin looks hot,

Does it EVER! :wink:

[graywolf_14]

Did they not offer one with a smaller diameter? Yeah actually now that I look I think a dual tip mufler in the center would look good. Have you installed the ground kit and what was your thoughts about it? The most I have heard is that it usualy just makes ur accelaration smoother.

[hasher22]

The grounding kit is still sitting in my room, i cant be bothered installing it. Maybe when i can be bothered...

People say it increases HP.............but for me to be bothered installing it i need proof from other members if it does give more HP to the YARIS



My question again : What paint!?? :(

[bigsky2]

Grounding kit ≠ More HP

That's total BS, and if anyone tries to convince you that it does, that person is full of it.

[vodkalush]

the grounding kit will or should smooth your idle, and in the case of me removed the alternator hiss through the stock stereo... the only time you'll "notice" is if you have alot of electronics and your in a "draining" situation...

example: having a GPS, SIRIUS Radio, AMP, Neons turned on, while charging 2 cellphones made a really rough acceleration from 60-75mph;;; before installing a grounding kit that is.

[graywolf_14]

Well I seen a review in a mag that it said that it gave like 4hp but that was on a evo8 and they paid 250 bux for the kit.

[Black Yaris]

I love your grill insert Hasher, how much did that end up runnin you?

[hasher22]

Well I seen a review in a mag that it said that it gave like 4hp but that was on a evo8 and they paid 250 bux for the kit.

I have read that too...In a car mag in Australia

but you can buy "specific" grounding kits for different cars. Though i think everyone here got "universal" kits thats why they aint gettin no HP.



Black yaris i got my Grille for i think 190AUD, availible in all yaris colours

:)

[Black Yaris]

Where did you buy it? on the internet somewhere?

[KSIbucky]

i got 250 for christmas so i buying a cold air intake shift knob pedals dash lights grounding kit and a fuel air addjust knob thing (maybe)

[ChinoCharles]

250 bucks covers the CAI and the shipping to get it to you... haha.

[hasher22]

Where did you buy it? on the internet somewhere?

Go on ebay.....they will sell it there.....

better yet go to the cosmetic section on this forums and i think the topic is called "something grille" and theres a link of it to ebay.




PEOPLE AGAIN WHAT PAINT!!?? har har

[hasher22]

[hasher22]

Everythings gonna even out once i paint everything


The white project was on my mind every since i got the car....... :(

[hasher22]

God you're bored. :bellyroll:

Looks like a candy cane. :drool:

Yes.....yes i am bored, the car is my only hobby + hip hop dancing and graphics designing when im bored or play video games.

Yes im boring :( and bored at the same time

[ChinoCharles]

Haha, Hasher I'm just joshin' you buddy. You were the first I saw to attempt that one, so props on being ballsy, and props on doing what YOU want to YOUR car.

[hasher22]

My car might look weird to everyone but i like what ive done (well most of it anyway) and fook dem haters.

Anyway i thaught white red and black would look nice....

though i still have to buy my lowering springs and rims to achive what i what with my "white project"
