hi, im Ross, 25 years old and abit of a yaris nut, this was my first 2004 1.3 yaris which i had for around 3 years and did over 120.000 miles in. engine was left stock (2sz-fe). the mods were.

d2coilovers, dotz wheels, automaxi roof rack and cycle carrier and abit of audio.

Then i wanted more…….and bought a 2003 yaris t sport about 2 years ago that was riddled with shopping cart dents and scuffs. http://i1265.photobucket.com/albums/jj516/minisantos/ec92839a.jpg (http://s1265.photobucket.com/user/minisantos/media/ec92839a.jpg.html)

The second day i owned the car it was put on my D2 coilovers+wheels that i took from my old yaris and swapped them straight over.

then i set to work having all the paint sorted and the dents worked out with PDR so there was no body filler involved. Once it was restored back to how it should be the long slippery slope started….i started to fiddle with it….

And now it looks like this……

Nice car. Someday, i hope to own one of these again, especially with a moonoof.

Love how HongKong have the same yellow 4+3 license plates. LOL

thanks for the kind words guys. ive got a couple of plans for the engine at the moment but the main focus is to get my supercharger fitted and running then i'll fit the rest of the parts.

im aiming for around 150bhp which hopefully will make it fairly quick considering the car's half stripped out :)
