still a very sharp looking ride

[eTiMaGo]

thanks man :)

I really gotta take it to a pro detailing shop, there's only so much I can do with my basic equipment and lack of patience :laugh: (you can see I missed cleaning on back wheel, doh!)

[JumpmanYaris]

Nice Thomas

I feel like there is something missing idk what

It might be because the white wheels you used to have, but the ride looks good.

[eTiMaGo]

yeaaaah I do miss them, they really defined the car... who knows, maybe in the future I'll use these as the "go" wheels, and get some big white ones again for "show"...

[evo165]

All you need now is frt JDM RS bumper & side skirts!! :headbang:

[Kioshi]

FINALLY! We barely see pics of your car.

white wheels are gone :(
Although you can drop the car a tad lower now hehe.

Black wheels looks pretty sharp on the car Thomas. Your intake looks a bit dusty/rusted, time for a new intake from Garm ;)

[tomato]

I was scratching my head wondering what was missing ... doh! the white wheels!! :cry:

Nice look, though. I liked that you're not dropped too low, so you don't have to scrape in certain road conditions.

thanks for posting those new pics . moar , yo! :headbang:

[firemachine69]

Needs boost. :biggrin:

Actually, the wheels are shorter than the old ones (195/50), so I scrape a lot more than I used to! I'm considering raising the suspension half an inch :laugh:

The intake, yeah, it's a 90 degree rubber coupler that's getting kinda rotten... an AFE would be on my wishlist for later!

Someday, someday :wink:

YAY !!! the cabby is back and going strong , love the new Regmasters man !!! still looks good as ever , i bet the car is pulling better now aswell ? now to set those coilovers a few mm lower :-)

[tca4]

Looks very nice!! love the red black combo as well

[HTM Yaris]

Killer

:headbang:
:bow:

[yaris_trd]

Hi the photos are good etimago forgive me ask you what you have in your radiator hose that also look like cylinders next to the intake manifold ???

[nazier]

WTF are u doing, like i said a mag can make or break a look of a car, and those mags need to go, and the rear left door thats not the same color, and the bumpers, if u dont want to look after the car pass it on to those who will, the engine come out really nice, where is the original cover, and where is the cool oil cap gone,

just put everything back the way it was, ok

thanks,

[eTiMaGo]

that's a metal tube into which the sensor for my water temperature gauge is installed

Honestly I'm more interested in go than show now (of course, car's still gotta look good, but it's not a priority). So if you don't like the wheels, too bad, I do :biggrin: As for the paint, it's mis-matched from the factory (between the metal and plastic body parts) and then again from the body shop after I had an accident a couple years back. Honestly, the photo makes it more visible than it really is. But, I'm gathering up bumps and scratches, hopefully I may take it for a complete paintjob soon.

Original boring engine cover's in storage somewhere, and I never had a fancy oil cap, confusing me with someone else maybe? :laugh:

[big lo]

Yo E, no matter what the ride is still tight.

makes me miss my yaris now...thanks a lot

because the oft-copied design of these wheels is originally the Regamaster Evo... ;)

[brg88tx]

your liftback looks good, ever thought about a red stripe on the outer edge of your wheels?

[nazier]

Oh yeah, it's definitely been a performance mod too :laugh:

hi buddy

just to let u know, if u can find out the factory only does a miss match when the vehicle , was in a bumper bashing in the factory, the factory doesnt redo the work they send it out to get it done, also the should not be a miss match even if its on plastic,

as for more power i will find out once this is done someone down the road from me is fitting the rsi runx motor in his yari, he wants a coffen on four wheels,

a complete respray will be great, are u going to a toyota approved, or someone good your know,

did u try hot ice in the air box it works well, but it will only be for a short time,

did u try a spark plug from bosch four points its also helps with increasing power,

did u think about fitting nos to your air box,

how much wieght did u remove from the vehicle

u can change the rear window to perspex to reduce wieght and all your quarter glass,

did u try fitting flexi pipe from the front bumper to the air box

and to the engine to keep it cooler

I've thought of most of these, but lack of funds right now is holding me back... wait til business gets better and I'll give the car the care that it deserves :)
