Check the 2008 GTA Meets thread in the Canada forum for pics of my TRD suspended Nautical Blue Sedan.

I have megans which are 1.5" front and rear. They are slightly more lower than TRDs I believe, but here are before and after pics.

After Drop

To be honest the ride wasnt that much different from stock springs. Well I didnt notice much and none of my passengers ever did. The only time it gets rough is when I'm over 80mph, but thats how it was with the stock springs too. I cut my bump stops the exact lenght posted in peter's thread (http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9831) and that probably contributed to the ride quality too.

ok i thinking maybe ill go that route with the megan springs cause i think there were people that have the trd springs and noticed that the resist alot so im guessing the megans are more areound the same spring rate as the stock spring

I can't comment on the rates of the TRD's as I installed the TRD shocks and struts at the same time making the ride is quite stiff. I can say that the advertised drop of 1.2" soon became closer to 1.5" after they broke-in.
With the TRD springs, shocks, swaybar and FatCatMotorsport bumpstop/spacer kit this Yaris is on rails but possibly too stiff for those who desire a cosmetic change but perfer not to sacrifice ride quality in favour of hi-performance handling.

Only pic I have right now we added tanabe NF210 and a TRD rear sway bar. Not only does it look a million times better but it handles way better too!

hi darkmoon, very very nice Yaris Sedan! looks very clean. What kind of springs are you using? I'm also looking to get lowering springs. I'm using 17s, 45 series tires.

Thanks!
