Yea I have manual paddles, which are a huge pain. There are so many fittings compared to analog or digital electronic management. My right front leaks and I can't figure out from where, so I have to top it off every 3 minutes.

Thx for the info...

Can't go wrong either way, but I think your car looks tremendous.

Sheeeesh. I feel like there are pros and cons for manual paddles. MOSTLY cons but you know what I mean. I like the gauges you get with them and how they seem more accurate. When my boy takes passengers he can air up in the back a little bit, and the gauges seem pretty accurate in terms of driver side to passenger side.

Don't get me wrong, I like the control I have over my height. I just wish I could pin down my leaking lol. Also I wish it aired out a little bit quicker. The exhaust port on the manual valves are 1/8" and it takes so long for the front to go down. And I run twice the air in the front as the rear, so the back of the car is down 5 sec before the front.

I'm liking the 16's on your car more and more man. You're convincing me that static Yarii need 16's.

Ahhh very true, my friend said the same, we parked in the garage and I was like what're you doing, and he said "Still airing out" hahaha it was hella funny. The port can't go any bigger? And thanks a lot man, I feel the same way. I'm just looking towards a different type of wheel now. Still 16s, maybe 16x9 but I'm just over the mesh look haha.

@coheed - 1/8" lines are tiny! After you find your leak, try 1/4" at least. Not more than 3/8" though. Should help speed up your lowering/raising.

@TC- New wheels already? Curious what you have in mind...

I don't know if it could go any bigger. I would try drilling it out a bit, but at $15 and not being able to buy one locally, I think I'll leave it and deal with airing out slowly lol

No my lines are 1/4", but the air exhaust port on the back of the manual paddle valves are 1/8". My raise time is great, its the lowering that takes forever.

I was trying to avoid the mesh look, but I got a good offer for a trade for some brand new 16x9s so i'll post on here with pics if it goes through! Polished lips with white faces :) Still reps unfortunately, but ill fake the funk til i graduate school and get something nicer :)

Trade didn't go through, but I ended up finding some other JNCs in 16x9 that I loved. They will be arriving in a few days, and I'll mount the same tires I had on the BBS RS reps. Since they will be 16x9 I think the 195/45s will be the perfect stretch. Pics will be up when I get them on! :)

As promised. New wheels are on! 16x9 +25 JNC014 (Sorry they're still reps lol but I love them) on 195/45s. I have 10mm spacers in the rear. So +15 in the rear :) Hate how it looks high from the rear. Lol. There are some rubbing issues, so I will have to pull/flare the fenders out even more.

Seriously it looks awesome man. Props.

And you'll never get over thinking the Yaris looks high in the rear. I think mine looks high in the rear aired out lol

More pictures with the homies recently acquired EG8 while he works on his GSR 4 door.





Still scraping pretty tough, probably gona add a tad bit more camber in the front. I love how she sits though!

How many washers did you you to achieve that much rear camber? And about how many degrees of camber do you have in the rear?

Used 3 grade 8 washers per lower bolt on each side. So i have a total of 12 washers. I'm running about -3 camber. Each washer used is supposed to be -1 degree of camber.
