Hey guys, I'm selling my TRD rear sway bar as well as lowering springs with the struts and shocks. I've installed my BC Racing coilovers and have no need for my old set up. My car was oil sprayed so there is virtually no rust on anything. Took my a while to clean up but once the oil/dirt was off the paint underneath was in excellent shape.

*SWAY BAR SOLD*
TRD rear sway bar. In great condition, 2 small rust bubbles at each corner as well as a few dings in the paint. No bends or dents. I am also selling with the extra bolts needed to mount it. 70,000km on it. Asking $150 USD OBO. Would prefer local sale but will ship.

Selling the spring and shocks/struts together:
***SOLD***
MicroImage lowering springs which I believe are 4k F and 3k R spring rates. No rust what so ever on them, paint in great condition and these have already settled to their final height.

Front struts KYB excel G 70,000km with springs installed on them with bearing and rubber top mount. Bearing spins smooth. This can be installed as a quick struts meaning no need for a spring compressor, just swap out your current factory set up and drop these in. BUmp stop has had 1" trimmed off of it so there is still quite a bit left on it to protect the strut from bottoming out. Both boots have moderate sized tears in them at the very top where the bump stop is, but not along the shaft of the strut. Struts performs excellent, not leaking of fluid or any damage to the shaft.

Rear Tokiko HP (Blue) shocks. Shocks still compress at proper rate equal to one another, no damage to shaft and no leaking.

This set up paired with the sway bar will leave you with a Yaris that is tail happy (over steer) and is a blast to drive day to day or on the track. It is a good suspension compromise for a DDer that can be driven hard and perform well at the track. I drive about 30k km a year in the early morning on highways so about 90% of the mileage is on relatively smooth highways.

Asking $300 USD OBO. Have these all sitting in a box ready to ship out asap

I also have an extra OEM sway bar end link and an aftermarket lifetime warranty one I can throw in for another $15. The joints are all tight and move freely

I have the TRD sway bar, makes a BIG difference, although I am used to it now. It's been on about 4 years now. I got my Yaris and took it home 5 Years ago today! 4-11-2013 - 4-11-2018 - Just changed the 'earl' on it a few minutes ago, 20,070 miles! It's actually about 5 years & 7 months old...right around 4,000 miles a year! Yes, It's pretty mintola!

Can those sway bars still be bought for an 09 sedan?

Would you guys say there is any reason to upgrade the FRONT one, on a daily driver? Or would you say that its probably well enough as it is?

Leave it alone. The OEM front bar is perfect as is. My opinion of course.

That's enough for me. I'd already figured it was unlikely much would be gained, but I thought I'd ask in case anyone had done it and noticed anything worth noting.

How much of a drop does the Micro Image springs provide?

I'm local to the GTA.

Cool. Any issues with rake or did they appear even front and rear?

Are they sold separately or only as a combo with the struts?

When measured from the jack points to the ground there was about a 1/4" rake but it appears to look completely flat to the eye

The MI springs were originally sold by themselves but im selling everything together

If you text me I can probably find pics of the set up on my phone somewhere

Thanks man, I'll tag you in some photos when I get a chance to install them and mount some tires on my summer wheels.

Was nice meeting you. Are there local Yaris meets or anything of that sort?

tmontague

You as well. We are trying to get a meet going somewhere in the GTA in May. Check the Canada section thread for info.

Definitely send me pics once the install is done, they'll really change the look of the car
