I've frequented many car forums including honda-tech.com, clublexus.com, lexusownersclub.com, spyderchat.com, overboost.com, zilvia.net,freshalloy.com,240sx.org,nicoforums, etc.etc.
but, i don't know much about online resources for the Yaris, much less a good Toyota site like honda-tech.com is for hondas.
Does anyone here use other Yaris internet resources besides yarisworld.com??

There are sites like echobb.com and the Japanese forums... other ones so called dedicated to Echos/Yaris don't seem to be any better than this place.

toyotanation.com tends to have some yaris focus occasionally

There's also the fledgling Yaris Owners (http://www.yarisowners.com/forums/). Yaris World is the best IMO.

Is there anything wrong with Yarisworld? I think it is better to have one forum where everyone goes...

I don't really see the point of making a lot of forums that all look the same when you can stick to one and find all the info you need, or share your knowledge with others at one place.

...and we all know that it is all the same people that end up posting on these different forums.

I think Yarisworld is the best forum avaible at the moment and I think we should continue to share our info here, at the end it will make it easier and more fun for all of us.

Anyway...this is just my point of view...I'm not disrespecting anyone who try to create another forum:respekt:

I signed up for the heck of it, and if I can help I will.

So far though, YarisWorld.com = :headbang:

Yeah, so far Yarisworld seems to have the most people and good info on it.. going to a bunch of diffrent forums can sometimes be a pain.. I used to admin the So-Cal forum for a tacoma club, there was a national forum and then a bunch of local chapter forums, etc.. now we have consolidated down to one forum for all of them nationwide, and even expanded to other Toyota off-Road vehicals (www.ttora.com) Now it's only one forum to find all the good info and talk to others.. much easier this way, and less work for me.. :biggrin:

Same thing will probably happen with the Yaris forums, one will eventualy establish itself above the others and the others will die off.

well, it seems like yarisworld.com has a very limited knowledge base, especially when it comes to universal issues and ignorance on common subjects. I've been trying to find a site that has more TECHNICAL info like wiring harness diagrams and people that have started doing the engine swaps...i've put a 2ZZ motor / 6 speed transmission in a MR2 Spyder, 1MZ / Solara 6 speed in a SW20 MR2, RB26DETT skyline motor / RB25 trans into 240SX, as well as the COMMON sr20det 240sx swap and B , H, or K series into hodna civics...
but, finding Vitz owners who have taken the time to document their LARGE engine PROJECTs and hardcore track testing is IN SHORT SUPPLY here on yarisworld.com. Not to knock the site, it's still a fledgling until the Yaris gets more mainstream..but again, there is a lot of mininformation here and not enough trolling admin to keep the confusion from spreading..

What do you expect though? The US has only seen this car on sale for a couple/few months now. You're prolly way ahead of the curve when it comes to technical knowledge and ability to tinker with your Yaris anyway so its gonna take some time for ppl to start messing/modding with their newly bought Yaris. Just gonna take more time for the knowledge base around here to build up. :thumbup:

Yes, i agree with you. I like this site and would love to help where i can..but if i could find a good source of Vitz information i could easily share it with everyone here. I've got a 2ZZ motor/tranny/wiring harness just sitting here...and any info i could find on starting the swap would be displayed here in DIY Articles from me. I'm still finishing up a DIY writeup on an Oil Cooler setup for my Yaris..but a full article is better than a "Discuss my Buildup" if I can't get any informed opinions/information from others on this board. I PRAISE the person who did the writeup on INSTALLING THE TACHOMETER...YOU SAVED ME RESEARCH TIME and possible mistakes :drinking: :smoking:

All the same, i appreciate everyone's input on the subject, I'll remain dedicated to the Yarisworld community and I will try to bring as much Data to the Table as possible...but i need more SOURCES :help:
