How much of a pain in the butt would it be to install springs with my stock struts there in the parking lot? :thumb up:

Hey Actually looks like I will also have a set of (hopefully gently used) Tokico Blue struts and a set of Tanabe NF210 (also used) springs. Gonna buy them at the meet up.
I may be able to bring a good floor jack, since thats something that is big and heavy and annoying to haul around and you guys would be doing me a HUGE favor with this install.

Yes, I am the n0000b. :laugh: It is my understanding that this could go a lot smoother if I have the struts and the springs together? Is there anything else that I would need other than those 2 things?
Sorry I should start a different thread than talking about this here. Sorry Laz!

Its better to be stock, you get to see a broad range of paths to branch off from.
Who knows, you may end up swapping with other people that come.
When a few of us started out, we were all stock and there weren't too many vendors or parts available. We stood out in a parking lot full of S2000, M3, G35, etc... ;)
Pur_Blu
08-15-2011, 08:24 PM
i can't wait... i gotta stop spending money though. Jason if u got shocks and springs that will make the install x10times easier PnP really. swapping out springs takes a lil time but can be done. Harbor frieght has alum race jacks that weigh in around 45lbs. I go one at my house that tips the scales at about 70-80lbs.
STOCK, MODDED, RACING OR NOT RACING EVERYONE SHOULD GO FROM THE BAY AREA

wow! i want to come, but i have work and i get off at 8pm.. waaaa.
oohh and does anyone of you know where can i get a paint job, prolly the cheapest but the highest quality. i dont know what is required to have a paint job.
hehe.
Kaotic Lazagna
08-16-2011, 01:48 AM
Cheap and quality don't belong in the same sentence that deals with paint jobs. You're better off doing a rattle can job. All the cheap stuff will start flaking/peeling/cracking on you (I think it's because those cheap places do a poor job in prepping the car for paint).

Yeah I was really nervous to hang out with "the tuner crowd" but I dunno Yaris owners are just super cool and fun. Was a different story when I had my Civic SI like 9 years ago.

Thanks man, I am hoping to have EVERYTHING for the meet, and then get an alignment done the following Monday, I won't shred my brand new tires in like a couple days after installing NF210's?
Should I bring some jacks and a floor jack?
Also just scrubbed the inside of my car, all the plastic pretty good. Amazing that a difference it made. Just some soap and water. She is gonna get a good vacuums and a wash the day of the meet.
I also PM'ed a friend of a friend of mine up in Roseville and invited him to come down to the meet.

Anybody want me to bring a cooler filled with Soda? I can bring like 4x 6 packs or something. Normally I would load it up with Mountain Dew but I will be up all night of I do that. I can bring some Caffeine Free stuff and just some Coke or something.
Also if any electricity is needed I have this big 600W portable battery thing. Should I bring it? Good for high power electric power tools, lights, fans, radio's, what ever.

Jason, I didn't get an alignment for a year or two after installing my lowering springs. lol. Never had any abnormal wear on the tires, but then again, I could have just got lucky. The car always drove straight, steering was straight...up until they started repaving I-80...which threw off my alignment.
Anywho, yes, please bring a jack and two stands, two jacks if you can. lol.
Oh, and no, a few days isn't going to tear up your tires unless your alignment is unbelievably off (like when I lowered my GTI, and I had to turn the steering wheel a 1/4 turn to the left to drive straight).
Kaotic Lazagna
08-16-2011, 02:38 AM
lol, if you want to bring that battery thing, go for it, but I don't think anyone has anything electrical that needs to be plugged in. Sodas would be nice. Should we bring snacks (i.e. chips, cookies, etc)? lol. I don't know how expensive food (if there is any) is at Malibu.

Thanks man. I will ask my roomie if I can borrow a jack and a couple stands. I am super excited to get those struts/springs installed, but I have not worked out a final price from the person selling them yet. Hopefully know for sure tonight.
I will leave the battery behind. Its heavy.
May also want to bring a couple trash bags for recycling and trash (hugs a tree).

Hmm sounds like I might be able to put it off for a month at least. The Alignment on my 5 year old Yaris has never been adjusted and it is still dead on perfect as far as I can tell.

hahaha, yeah, but once you lower it, you'll have to change your driving style a bit. If you don't already, you'll have to avoid all pot holes and imperfections on the freeways if possible. Otherwise, like what happened to me, your alignment will get messed up. However, you can go to Firestone and get their lifetime warranty. It's $180, but you can get your alignment done four times a year for life. lol.
ezhacker1
08-16-2011, 07:11 AM
+1 for Firestone alignment. Only thing is they don't do custom alignments..least not the one I went to, but least u have the numbers to dial it in the way u like.
Kioshi
08-16-2011, 09:02 AM
With the nf springs, you can go up inclines and stuff normally but i do suggest avoiding potholes of any size and major cracks on roads.
@dumb - we will still be there past 8p. So come by!
Also, anyone know if 2007TRD is coming?? Since Sean confirmed his status....he is the only other person on list.
@ Kiteless - soap and water for inside pieces? I have to see this. I always thought the cheap dash would get scratched easily. :-/

Hmm Might have to take it there next weekend then. Sounds like I should be able to go a week without getting aligned without destroying my new tires. I already avoid them if I can.

THanks I am glad to hear that. Makes me feel even better about getting these parts. Looks like we have settled on a price and he will be there at the meet on Sunday. I will be bringing a floor jack and jack stands. I know my way around my Egg but there is a lot I have yet to learn.
Well I figured since there is a meet this weekend I would clean up my girl. Looking at the inside it just has kind a thick layer of dust any place that is not touched regularly. I vacuum from time to time, was the car and windows and she just got a claybar and wax last weekend. Looking at what I had I decided that a light sponge, and a little dish soap/water could not hurt. SO I started going over all the doors, especially anything that I touched a lot that showed some oil. A little embarrassing to talk about here, but we are not without our various oils. Got most of it well cleaned. Also finally installed the center console from MI last night. I kept thinking it would get in the way of shifting, but its awesome.
Thanks all!

Invited some friends of mine to the meet this Sunday. I don't know if they will come. Jaylin is as sweet at a button and Dave is a gearhead. Jaylin has a stock automatic Yaris sedan she got after seeing my Yaris and her boyfriend Dave has a modified Corvette for autocross and also DD. I am hoping she will see our cars and at least want to turn her Yaris into a Vios or a Belta or something.

There's food + token combo.
Ravage is washed and looking good, can't say the same for the tires. No special mods this time... Body shop fell through on time table. I did spruce up the interior trim tho :)
Anyone want tinted window visors? The ones that go into the window channel. They are like 2.5% tint. Can't see out of it at my stock seat height, would be good for lowered seat people. Fresh double side tape applied already.

Ditto, i was unable to accomplish the mod before school started. I'll have it done end of next month for sure. Nothing to see but an exterior mod :P
I'll be checking the forums from work since I'll be right in front of a computer. I'll answer any last minute questions other people have, everyone else spruce up your cars!

Same thing as motion jpeg, the one with tons of Jpegs for each frame of video but in this case it's just one gif file that has all the "frames". I used to turn short anime clips to animate gif (Initial D) anyone? I believe u are limited to 256bit color, but makes sense for avatars which are tiny files.
Maybe animate a lens flare, lol. Passing from left to right. Joking aside, a banner signature should help us out alot.

Kaotic - Ric made the logo. Contact him for the original file. I had his samples but deleted my PMs due to PTS switch help and current mod help.
I like it though. I will use that.
And i agree on finding people on facebook...though i dont use it really now.
We will really expand on our club. Main objective is to get people aware about a "california board" on here and MI forums.

Kaotic, you got the best sig haha.
If you guys get done early, do you guys want to go get some pastrami/belgium beer? Its at a place called..The Refuge. Super near Malibu Grand Prix.

hahaha, the pic was from my little get-away. Figured we all should have similar signatures, and my pixel car one was too different.
I'm down to chill after racing. lol.

I was gonna show up last night LOL good thing Laz saw my post on the other thread and directed me here.
Also, I am moving at the moment (really short notice, long story), so I may not have as many tools as you might think LOL. Although the whole install is pretty simple with just some basic tools. I will try to bring at least my basic toolbox, a light and possibly a cordless impact wrench if I can find it in time, but I definitely won't have a jack or stands, so if someone else could bring that, that would be really helpful LOL.
I just finished installing my Megans, maybe someone can also help me adjust them and figure out how to use the FRIKKIN CONFUSING camber bolts for the front before I go get it aligned. :)
PS. Haha! for once my car is as spotless as it has been in a year and your cars will be dirty LOL

Kaotic made the sigs with contraband831's NCVC lettering. He is driving to the place now...
ezhacker1 - what do you mean? There is only one entrance right?
