[tca4]

does that fit the 5 drs?

[VitzBoy]

Very nice, car looks much better with that reduced wheel gap.

[birdy]

if i get my yaris this friday I will order these next friday.

pm the price for the tdf121's

[Ron]

can you confirm the spring rates for these springs please? i recall you posted in the other post, that the rear springs for the DF's are actually softer than the NF's.

[C2AUTOSPL]

Spring rates are as follows:

Hatch
Fr Rr
3.0 / 2.2

Sedan:

3.0 / 2.2

[Tanabe USA]

The Yaris parts are coming soon! :D

Please feel free to PM us or send an email to info@tanabe-usa.com for information about any of these products.

We are trying to monitor the forums daily, but sometimes this is impossible, so it is best to email for the quickest response.

[sroberts]

Anything for the sedan's?

[Supa Lao]

Plan on coming out with some coilovers?

[mikeukrainetz]

There are two versions of the tanabe springs mentioned above. There are three types offered for a lot of different vehicles with varying spring rates. Do either of the mentioned drop springs have the highest spring rate of 20-30% - this would be the set I want, any help is much appreciated.

[johnnyfive]

tanabe website has all the information you are asking for in thier application charts.. NF210 (http://www.tanabe-usa.com/springs/spring_applications.asp?id=2) and DF210 (http://www.tanabe-usa.com/springs/spring_applications.asp?id=1)
DF210 for max drop, and NF210 for max comfort with reasonable drop

edit: and yes, the website lists the same springs for the sedan, and the hatch

[Ron]

so the DF spring rate is f/r: 3.0/2.2 and the NF spring rate is f/r: 2.5/2.2. Same rates in the rear for both springs, despite a half inch greater drop for the DF's. Any thoughts on why??

[C2AUTOSPL]

PMed you back Chris...

[wushumasterku]

basically, what's the difference between the 2 kinds?

[Chris07LB]

basically, what's the difference between the 2 kinds?


The difference is the drop height.

Look at the pictures above, and you will see the amount of drop each kit will give, from your stock height.

TDF121 - Front 1.6" / Rear 1.8"

TNF121 - Front 1.1" / Rear 1.3"

[C2AUTOSPL]

Thank you. I have NF210 in stock...lower your Yaris now!

[El Jefe]

hey guys i just got my springs today, fast shipping and good transaction
i'll put them on tommorow and let you guys now how i like them.
thanks again j!!

[wushumasterku]

ok thanks

why is the lower one 20 bucks more?

for TDF121 - Front 1.6" / Rear 1.8",
does it require different shocks than stock?

[johnnyfive]

different amout of work goes into making the springs act accordingly on your car at different ride heights, and that is what you pay for

[johnnyfive]

hey guys i just got my springs today, fast shipping and good transaction

thanks again j!!

both Credit card and paypal. If you're serious about purchasing, PM me.:thumbsup:

[JustAnotherAsian]

ok thanks

why is the lower one 20 bucks more?

for TDF121 - Front 1.6" / Rear 1.8",
does it require different shocks than stock?

DF210- "Dress-up Form"- maximum drop- relatively simple spring to attain maximum drop with only up to 10-15% increased spring rate.

NF210- "Normal Feeling"- maximum comfort- a little more advanced spring to attain maximum comfort with a "tasteful" drop. up to 5% increased spring rate.

so that's probably the reason to why the NF210 is a bit more expensive while offering a less noticable drop. same thing with tein springs (s-tech vs. h-tech springs).

any word if the yaris is going to get the GF210 "Grip Feeling" springs? it slots in between the DF210 and NF210 in terms of drop height, but the spring rate is up to 30% over stock springs.

anywaiz, to answer the other question- all three of the springs (NF, DF, and GF) are designed to work with the oem shocks, but tanabe reccomends that the GF210 be used with a performance shock for "full potential".

[Chris07LB]

Carefull, I said this until I was blue in the face after my DF210 how-to.... I guess some people "know all" from NO experience. :rolleyes:

therefore, my disclaimer: the springs are designed to be used with stock/oem shocks, but that doesn't necessarily mean that you'll get the same life as if you were using stock/oem springs that the shocks were orginally designed with. :wink:

Exactly.. I was agreeing with you. :tongue:

[JustAnotherAsian]

Exactly.. I was agreeing with you. :tongue:
yup. and i was just saving my a$$ for the future. lol.

[MWill517]

Maybe a dumb question:
What is the expected life of shocks/struts with stock springs vs NF210s OR DF210s ?:iono:

Knowone really knows, as many, including myself, have just installed the DF210's on my Yaris.

So far in about two weeks, I have put on around 800-900 miles.. :frown:

[C2AUTOSPL]

alot in stock.

[GabL]

Carefull, I said this until I was blue in the face after my DF210 how-to.... I guess some people "know all" from NO experience. :rolleyes:

So you don't feel comfortable with the DF spring & OEM shocks combination? Or you're ok??

[Chris07LB]

So you don't feel comfortable with the DF spring & OEM shocks combination? Or you're ok??

"Its the same comfortable feel as oem suspension, but when cornering hard, or switch lanes quickly, its nice and firm.. reacts tight and feels awesome."

Tanabe has told me over the phone they were designed to be used with the oem shocks/struts and sway bar end links.............. <--- There's the "blue in the face" statement again. :laugh:

[C2AUTOSPL]

BOth springs are in stock.

[SDsurfrider]

C2AUTOSPL will you pm me plz, it is not working for me...

[vodkalush]

just ordered mine last night...

[FoEKuZ]

just ordered mine last night...

which ones you decide to choose?

[C2AUTOSPL]

C2AUTOSPL will you pm me plz, it is not working for me...

PMed you:thumbup:

[vodkalush]

which ones you decide to choose?
I went with the df210s, prob should have gotten the nf210s; as high amounts of snowfall might be easier to drive through with a higher clearance. Then again if its really that bad i'll just drive my blazer (should i still have it)

I'll post pics of the install, before/afters when i've got them installed.

[Ryosuke]

Hello people, I´m going to purchase the springs but I have 18" wheels on my yaris with 215/40 18 tires. Which model do you recomend if i dont want rubbing problems, the nf210 or the df210?
Thanks :biggrin:

[tca4]

nf

[vodkalush]

nf - unless you drive on roads that have no pot holes and you never drive out in the sticks

------ 1 more day till my df's come in!!!-------

[C2AUTOSPL]

Thanks for the purchases guys. Keep them coming.

BOth DF and NF instock.

[C2AUTOSPL]

both springs alot in stock!1

[C2AUTOSPL]

alot in stock ready to ship....

[obylium]

Purchased a set of DFs today. Hope to get some other suspension mods soon.

[Black Yaris]

since I put 225/50r16 tires I have a 8.9 inch footprint, and I am wondering how low I can go with out rubbing... but I love to ride low... has anyone noticed a bit of negative camber when installing the DF's?

[C2AUTOSPL]

wheels will be cambered since the DF seats pretty low.

[Ric n Sov's Vitz RS]

^^Sent you a pm about these^^

[GabL]

Just a quick question, do you need to do the alignment after you installed the spring? Or once you put on the springs, you're good to go on the street?

[Chris07LB]

Just a quick question, do you need to do the alignment after you installed the spring? Or once you put on the springs, you're good to go on the street?

I have yet to go for one. Tires after 8,000 miles still look good as new. :cool:

Some will say its a must, some wont worrie at all. Some car/trucks absolutly NEED one after any lower/lifting, but so far everythings perfect on the Liftback.

[bigsky2]

If the drop is greater than 2", it's safe and smart to get the car aligned.

Less than 2", not necessary but also safe/smart thing to do if you have the time.

[Lizardboy]

Well, I just got back from C2 Auto with my new NF210's finally!
I can't wait to put them on this weekend! Jay's a great guy and so is his buddy that was at the store at the time. And I'm not just saying that because he's a Miata guy!:biggrin: BTW, in case anyone else here has a Miata too, Jay's working on getting Miata stuff! Woohoo! Anyhow, I'll make sure to take before and afters of the spring install.
Jay, you've got my continued business... as long as my wife says I can afford it.:laugh:

I went to check my alignment right after the DF dropped....the front tires were all over the place. If I find the print out they gave me I will scan it and post it here

[hystria]

just installed my NF210 from c2auto :wink:

clearly improved handling, quite stiff (alot more than 5%, because of the increased stress on the front sway bar due to the lower geometry), very confortable (except over the bumps) and just the perfect drop :smile:

[Kaotic Lazagna]

[C2AUTOSPL]

Bump for TANABE

[rwseattle]

Does anyone know the size of the wheels and tire in the picture, in the first thread? I'm still not sure about the level of drop. I'm considering the DF210 or NF210 springs.

I'm driving 16" 205-45-16. Thanks.

[hasher22]

they are 15" i believe.......this is my opinion with wheels 17" or below go with DF's and anything above go with NF's

[rwseattle]

Do you think that the DF springs will still provide a reasonalbly good ride. I do like the lower drop. Do you have experience with the DF?

[uncleyaris]

it won't be a limo ride for sure,lol

[DJ_Trizzak]

ok, question - would you guys rather lower your car now or get rims first? - cause I'm planning to get rims some 17" ones - but I'm not to sure which springs I should get to fit it properly with the 17" - also I will be putting in some equipment in my car sometimes, which will add extra weight so I don't want it to rub

[ChinoCharles]

Lower it first so you don't end up putting 10k miles on some new rims and tires before you realize they're too big for your suspension.

[DJ_Trizzak]

oh ok, which springs are good - cause mine is at a stock height?

[C2AUTOSPL]

it depends on what ride height you want.

I have both springs instock ready to ship.

[C2AUTOSPL]

^ What that guy said.. LOL :thumbsup:

[scotttorrez]

I have 17" Konig Reasons on 215/40 Khumo's and Im getting rubbing with my NF210 springs installed:frown:

When its just me in the car, I only get rubbing in the rear whenever I hit a dip at around 40mph+ . And I had two lightweight women in the back seat and there was constant rubbing in the rear.
I did some research on these springs and tire/wheel sizes before I purchased and I thought I would be okay but I guess I was wrong. Just wanted to put this out there in case any other sedan owners might be thinking about this set up. Also, are there any suggestions to fix this problem? Since I will be the only person in this car most of the time, Its not a big issue, Ill just have to slow down more on the bumps/dips.

Thanks:
