Spring Question - Toyota Yaris Forums

TheRealEnth · 07-18-2010, 10:38 PM

I am looking for an aftermarket spring with the least drop, I don't want to put stock springs back... No control with stock springs ;d, I am thinking of putting NF210s? ARe there any that have less drop? Thanks.

*Astroman* · 07-18-2010, 10:48 PM

Eibatch is only 1" drop.

beZzZ · 07-19-2010, 12:08 AM

U can do some research about TRD, 1.2' drop, gd enough for me. Mine run on stock shocks, still comfy enough.

NF210's are 1.1/1.2, that is less than the TRD springs, which are closer to a 1.5" drop.

The NF210's are less stiff, only 10% over stock (just to compensate for the shortened spring length)

If you want something higher than that.. the why not just stay stock?

how much is it nf210 ? where can I get them .

ddongbap · 07-22-2010, 03:37 PM

You all should see the under of my car. Its so low, the frame is kinda bashed in. I have a Carbing front control arm bar that was hella bent after hitting a pot hole.

The bottom side of my car looks like that.

Yaris_PR · 07-23-2010, 10:08 AM

Megan Racing are just 1.5 and cheaper than the others. Check them on ebay...

Don't mean to go slightly off-topic, but if you're looking for the best control without a big drop, you could just save a big buck and run stock springs with a rear sway bar. It's all it really needs.

what's the difference from 19mm and 23mm..
does 23mm handles better then 19mm.
is it easy to install. thanx

detroiter · 07-24-2010, 09:28 AM

Easiest performance mod you could do to your Yaris. The 23mm is a bit thicker so it's going to tighten up things a bit more as far as handling goes (keeping the body roll flat). I'd say with the 23mm that while possible to do, have a friend on hand to help fit it on one side while you get the other. Mine anyways, was a very close fit for where you install it, so it helps to have another hand to line it up.

It's not hard to put on at all though. 4 bolts and your done! The difference it makes is quite surprising, especially the 23mm.

yaris4062007 · 07-25-2010, 03:26 AM

thanx , will be buying 23mm soon :)
