The Cusco 4 point lower brace is listed for both japanese and american NCP91s... this at least is the same... lol
/but i'd put money on it that most components will be compatable other than body parts/panels, which are different due to crash standards... but even then Japan has been really tightening up on their crash standards. It is in a company's best interest to homoginize its production, as it saves money in tooling. Also, note that the Yaris is manufactured in Japan rather than the United States... |

the Yaris was design as a worldwide car, unlike the previous echo hatch and honda fit that is retrofitted with USDM standards so that the car can be sold here.
all the JDM parts i got bolts right on (except for the taillight, but even the non RS in Japan had to be retrofitted) |

I've seen tein on some wrcs but never tanabe. I guess its more street stuff. I heard that the US Yaris hatch didn't come with a rear sway bar. I haven't had a chance to look. Am I right?

How much of a pain in the ass and how long does it take to swap out to lower/raise? The more I think about it actually the less I am worried about it because I could lower/raise when winter ends and fall ends....but then again I might not have to worry about it because I could just drive my 'Cel during the winter instead and park the Y.....so many thoughts....so little time.

I have the TRD springs coming in this week, but the coilovers would be a nice upgrade for the future. Are these EDFC compatible?
