Hello everyone. I just got a 2010 Yaris given to me. 250k miles but it’s going to just be a nice little commuter car with some fun stuff added. I’m on here looking for recommendations. I see things about the 1ZZ throttle body that looks easy enough. But I’m going to need exhaust maybe a header and would like a real cold air setup not a hot air cone filter bs. k&n is pretty proud of theirs any other options out there? Car runs and drives. I’ve never owned an import just older vehicles an classic v8’s so this might be pretty fun. And I will be looking for used aftermarket parts and upgrades as well. I’m a mechanic by trade anyways so let the free Yaris project begin. Thanks guys.

Good luck with it! It’s a great little car. You might run a Compression check and have a look at the spark plugs to determine engine condition. If the engine looks good, have the wheels off and check the brakes. Even if the pads are good, you might want to Bleed bleed them.

Let’s see what else I can think of you can check?
