well, its fitting that on the 5 year anniversary of purchase the yaris is back on the road after being put mostly back to stock

current mods:

enkei rpf1's 15x7, +41, black
205-50-15 toyo proxes4's
eibach sportline lowering springs
ultra racing 23mm rear sway bar
candian RS leather steering wheel
USDM S shift knob
canadian tire stainless exhaust tip
K&N panel filter

important to-do list:
swap brakes (i cooked the current set lapping in april)
check front suspension for blown struts (likely from off-course excursions from lapping in april)

So if you had not gone lapping in april (say May or June instead), the brakes and strut5s would be fine, yes?

LOL, I guess so. They were fine prior to racing....I just pushed too hard

thank you, sir

Took apart the front passenger strut....not blown....and after a quick drive, it seems as though taking it apart and putting it back together fixed the noise.

I tried to put on my NST pulley, but my lower alternator bolt is rounded....that's now on my fix-it list...

Also cleaned the MAF ....hopefully that helps the P0171 i got yesterday on the way to picking up my daughter from school...

If it makes you feel better, i rounded out the allen screw for my MAF sensor..stupid Fujita intake including them.

Adam...I'm confused. You de-modded most of it not too long ago, then re-modded some, then went completely stock, right?
