Is this slammed enough for you ?

[Got Mine]

2009 5dr LB
Stock suspension and stock 14" rims and tires.
2" or less clearance on the front end.
Have not measured the rear yet.
:thumbup:

[33OH]

Hard to see the ground clearance in those pics since they're from above.

[firebob]

I know after reading some of the post that it’s not low until you need the bass to hit to get it to go over a peace of gravel

But the question I have with it being your car and all do you like it or is it all about what we think?

[Got Mine]

I was just doing my imitation of " Crashy "
May not look like it in the foto but that rear is really up there.
I am going to have to level it for a few seconds before I start the engine.

Na. thats low enough though :-) hehe

[33OH]

Lol nice, I never expected it to be on a gradient. Thought it was just bad photos with cut springs. (since you said stock suspension)

what kind of lip is that? do you have any suspension travel left? I have about a half inch of gap up front on 195/55/15's and there is almost no travel remaining...

Why is your car backed onto a snow bank?

Looks to be the "HD" front lip/splitter. Like the one I have:

woah, thats it? looks great lol

[Kaotic Lazagna]

Yup that it. The brand I got is Frost King. There are other brands out there that will give different looks depending on how many bends they have. Frost Kind is an L shape seal. I have another seal that has two bends, so it'll give more of a splitter look than a lip look.

[Got Mine]

Why is your car backed onto a snow bank?

Because it fit ,
besides you should see the way some of the people look at it.


and to the other Yarii in this thread.....
Very nice....
Come on up here and park next to me.

[lilredrocket]

Yes counterfiend's fiance has a really nice Yaris!!!

[coffiend]

my poor car has suffered enough through this winter between the broken front bumper and the paint chipping off the rear one, I dont think ill be joining you on the snowbank :(

careful up there.

This is slammed! I think i have one of the craziest offsets on the site....15x8" 19mm offset on a 3" drop. I had to switch back to lowering springs cause i destroyed my passenger fender from rubbing even with my beautiful fender rolling job as you can see in my first pic! Got stance? Lol

[jekqmb]

My car is stirring it up on stanceworks and a few other stance sites, they are loving it...Im hoping to get put on the Hellaflush main page once its done! I even had the owner of stanceworks email me saying he cant wait to see the car done..Its the guy who owns the rusted slammed BMW on bbs rs's thats in all the mags!

[hatchbackkid82]

Can someone please explain to me what Hellflush is I've heard this term thrown around but i'm clueless, sorry to sound like noob:iono:

It's when the wheels stick out enough to be flushed with the sides of the car. The car is also dropped, and the wheels are tucked in at an angle to keep the tires from rubbing. Requires fender rolling,new fenders later on,negative camber,stretched tires,time and money.

i like the trend towards wheels that fit more proper, but just like everything else, it gets carried too far. some of those "hella flush" set ups have to ride and drive like shit just for "stance."

that trend is in the same vein as the "slammed" look. Lowering a car a little can be good for handling, but more often than not, people do more damage to the vehicle dynamics by doing so.

But i actually like to go FAST, not look fast so what do i know? :iono:

[hatchbackkid82]

Thanks man :thumbsup:

Go to your local Home Depot (or equivalent hardware store), and locate their garage door bottom seal section. I got the brand that's called Frost King. There are other brands out there, but I like how the Frost King brand sits.

did you just stick it on??

I work at Lowes thats y i asked. i couldnt find anything on my shelfs but we carry that frost king brand. Imma check it for sure tommorrow. thanx kaotic

[Kaotic Lazagna]

I used double sided tape (extra strength one) as well as self-tapping screws with washers. Taped the entire length, and screws every 3-4 inches.

I believe that's the one. It looks like an "L", right?

[ozmdd]

Not sure it qualifies as slammed, but I think its close to tucked...

[yarisugi]

ozmdd - that's a perfect drop height. Any ride problems?

[ozmdd]

Nope, but it was about 1/2" lower at first and was scuffing the front fender liners. I get no rubbing now, even on some of our rougher streets. If I take a dip or bump too fast, I'll occasionally get a momentary rub up front, but its never significant. Bear in mind I'm 40 and not tolerant of noises or rubbing, so minor to me is really minor. The handling is ridiculous with these. :wink:

If you have an axle-back exhaust that has larger-diameter tubing AND you do the rear-axle mod (relocating pivot bolt), you may get some rattling when the exhaust bumps the top of the axle. I installed a shorter, stiffer Poly hanger that took care of it, but now the axle is back in stock position (required for SCCA autocross classing), and there is plenty of clearance.

so hold the phone....are u using stock springs? i love to mod and i need to drop it (well tuck it) and i love ure hight, maybe even a little higher would due. but everything i do needs to be custom budget build stuff..... really thinking of jsut cutting the coils...

No no no... this is on Megan Coilovers. Lowering springs can give you a nice budget drop but not this low, and your stock shocks/struts will also not do their job as well. Cut springs could be even worse, since they are really soft.

If you want to get a good drop affordably, pick-up some DF210's used from someone on the forum (I saw a set for $100 in the classifieds) or some other 2" drop springs. Don't forget you will need an alignment afterwards. The install is pretty simple though. The three things you need to be sure you have are an offset 17mm box wrench, a set of metric Allen wrenches, and a strut spring compressor (loaner tool at most auto parts stores, also under $30 at Harbor Freight).

If you really want to try cut springs, I've got a set of oem take-offs (<200 miles) that I'll sell you for $40+shipping that you can cut without ruining your originals. (or cut your originals and save these for later).

If you really want the kind of drop I've got (or bigger), start saving for some coilovers. Eventually, that's where you'll go anyway, so save your $$ and don't buy new lowering springs and aftermarket struts. The used-spring method is a fun, cost-effective way to get a drop.

[jekqmb]

That is pretty low but not flush, no -camber and not enough offset...looks good though! I'm a bit of a flush freak myself, just have to be into that kind of look.

[jekqmb]

:w00t:

No prob!:thumbsup: Still trying to figure the whole thing out myself.:iono:

Flush means having the rim lip flush with the fender, this can be done by stretching a small tire on a very wide rim with a very crazy offset not meant for your car. It also requires a quite a bit of poke, rolled and pulled fenders, wheel adapters and or spacers. It can also require grinding down the calipers to so the rims clear that depends on your back spacing. You also need either custom shims or camber bolts or companys make them. Extended wheel studs come in handy as well. You can achieve the look in many ways, custom shortend struts with cut springs, coilovers, air ride... The list goes on. If your not rubbing and rolling rough your not low enough! It can cause some major problems if not done right! I've already messed a fender up and went back to lowering springs until garm hooks me up with some new goodies!

[jekqmb]

The pics I posted I couldn't even fit my cell phone under my car...

[wildmongoose26]

good for you?

In the picture I posted I couldnt fit a 2x4 under the car,

Man here in the midwest people either love it or hate, and we have one of the biggest VW chapters and lemme tell ya...Those guys will rip your ass apart if you start talking like you know anything about suspension setups. I was barley allowed to attend a local meet due to my car not looking the part. But not anymore, i took the hard road and it is slowly paying off, im not trying to be a dick, but man ive gone through hell and back here in st.louis to prove the Yaris can look amazing just like any of those cars seen on the stance sites. :iono: Im just trying to show people on this site, it can and will be done...you can pull some of the sickest setups off with the Yaris as long as you have the time and put in that effort and take everyones opinions with respect!

[90tsi]

ive been on that stl forum and there are a ton of god wannabe douche bags that have nothing better to do than try to rip on your ride if its not to there taste.

lol well dont let them cross you over to far to that darkside. i mean that stance thing is cool and all but some just dont worry to much about it.

but thats good there not on there flaming you so much i know that ass with a 240 or whatever he drove had some stupid yaris thing in his sig. I kinda figured waste of his day to go thru all that effort to do something no one really give a rats ass about. lol

Actually, there's almost -3 deg camber up front and -1.6 rear. My setup is purely for track/autocross, not looks, so keeping the wheels away from the fenders is desirable. Widening the rear track would hurt turn-in on this car, so not gonna try to flush it out. If I could have gotten staggered wheels for the street setup I might have done so, but definitely not on the track wheels.

[genyaris]

Do any of you guys know what wheels are on the black yaris? That car look sooo clean. Also why does he have a subaru emblem on it?

[yarisugi]

That black Yaris has XXR 513 wheels in silver. He has a Subaru Emblem because he owns a specialty shop for Subarus.

[DeathBeard]

How does one achieve -3 camber in front for the Yaris? I have a set of crash bolts and best I can manage is -1.75, yaris has no camber plate options right?
