We haven't had a meet & greet yet, but I want to organize one this year. And I don't think that distance is an issue for people from Belgium and the Netherlands, as long as the meeting place is a bit in the middle for all members.

Homeboy · 01-20-2009, 05:20 AM

Hellow people!

It's a bit quiet here the last few weeks... Perhaps, everybody is busy changing his/her Yaris?

I have a question: my front brake dishes look a bit rusty, but they still brake very well (after 28000km). 95% of my daily trip home - work - home is on the motorway. Maybe that is the reason for the rusty look, that I don't use my brakes often?

Does anyone has any idea what the cause might be? And how can it be solved?

Thanks for the advice! It actually helped.

Coming back to the suspension item, MAD has also lowering springs of -30mm for the Yaris, with a lifetime waranty. Has anyone ever heard about this brand? Are the springs tough or weak?

Homeboy · 01-23-2009, 05:29 AM

Sunday, 19th April 2009, "Battle of the small" will take place at the AC Restaurant @ De Meern (near Utrecht, The Netherlands).

Last year, following clubs were present:

- CinquecentoClub
- CitroSport
- SuzukiTuning Club
- Ibiza Club
- Fiesta Club
- KaClub
- CivicClub
- Saxo16VClub
- ArosaClub
- C2 Sportive Club
- Team106Xtreme
- PuntoSportivoClub

And what do I not see? A Yaris-club. Might there be some interest here in going to this meeting?

Jochen · 01-23-2009, 02:59 PM

I want these!

I just don't understand which part is which light? normal light, brake, reverse, turn signal
If you look at the back, there are 4 lights, so I think bottom is normal light, top is brake, below is the reverse and could those 2 red strips be the turn signals? But shouldn't that be orange?

Nico4960 · 01-24-2009, 07:33 AM

Don't like this one... I prefer mine :

E-bay seller : http://stores.ebay.com/City-Lights-Inc I thing, I paid 250€

Go here if you want your tail lights : http://www.autostyle.nl/ 275€, I thing it's the same...

Jochen · 01-24-2009, 10:04 AM

Thanks for the link! The shop where I bought my springs is also an autostyle-dealer, so I can get them there. Those on the site are the chrome version, but I'm sure they will also have the black ones.
The black ones will match my black headlights.

It's a good thing I can get them here local, no more problems with the customs.

Jochen · 01-24-2009, 12:42 PM

Just contacted the shop, the black ones aren't available. Maybe later this year...
I really hope so.

Jochen · 02-02-2009, 04:07 AM

I just saw an IQ on the roads today.
I better waited a year for buying a new car. I'm pretty sure I'd bought an IQ instead of a Yaris then.

Homeboy · 02-04-2009, 05:35 AM

Are us sure about this? Have you ever seen an IQ in detail?

You have no space in the trunk (which has a depth of 15cm!). Don't forget that an IQ with some extra options and accessories cost the same or even more than a Yaris.

The only advantage I think you might have is the power of the 1.4 D4D diesel engine (same as the Yaris with 90hp) combined with a weight of +- 850kg.

Friends, Netherlands the Yaris club has a new forum.

Here is the link http://yarisclub.com.www1.customer.k...pBB3/index.php

Voor diegene die Nederland spreken zou het leuk zijn als jullie daar ook meepraten.

Jochen · 02-22-2009, 05:58 AM

I'm going to put a red led bulb in my new taillights (to use as a fog-light), but which should be best:
Something like this (with all leds on top of it):

Or something like this (with leds on top and sides):

Homeboy · 02-28-2009, 04:41 AM

Finally, the strutbar and swaybar have arrived at the shop. I just have to go pick them up in the Netherlands and have them installed.

Cool, ben benieuwd hoe het weggedrag veranderd!
Hou ons op de hoogte!

btw, zijn ze alleen voor de diesel? of ook voor de 1.3?
