does anyone know if the S.Tech's fit the Yaris sedan? trying to make the best decision before i go out and buy/order springs for my Yaris. i like the fact that the Tein's have a rear spring load (right?) of 3.5 kg (right?) opposed to the Tanabe springs of 2.2 kg (right?). this is actually more stressful than i thought.

yes it seem to be 3.5 in the rear, which is quite stiff especially considering the 1.9 drop (even more for sedan's rear) on stock shocks - they won't last long for sure. this will give quite an aggressive and stiff drop :wink:

cool, but do they fit the sedan or is it a hatchback application only?

Call Tein, but I suppose they fit Sedan as well because there are many aftermarket springs that fit both the sedan and the hb

if they do make springs for the sedan, would you happen to know the part number? Tein does not list anything for the sedan on their website.

Sedan and Liftback suspensions are the same, springs will fit both cars, the drop tends to be .1-.2 inches lower in the sedan, due to slightly more weight
