Welcome Nico! And your English is pretty good too!

Regarding the tail lights and the chiptuning, can you give me more information about these two items? Where have you bought those tail lights? I assume they are 'plug and play'? And where did you go for the chip tuning?

You car is very nice!

Well for the tail light search on e-bay (here it is the seller http://stores.ebay.com/City-Lights-Inc but you can find others).

They are not plug and play and you must make some modifications because this tail light come from Asian and they don't have same connection as us... (If you need help tell me, I can explain you it's very easy...!)



For the chip tuning here it is http://www.ptronic.be/ I now, it's cheap but now with my 117HP (+25% torque) it's very cool and more pleasant

You want to change for "40mm lowering" be carreful in Belgium you cannot exceed 30mm for lowering springs... If you want more, you must take adjustable suspension...!

Nico, just 1 small question: why is lowering of -40mm a problem? I know that if you go lower than 40mm, you need adapted shocks. A coilover kit is always the best way to lower a car, but here in Belgium, you have the choice between KW and H&R (because of the paperwork we need for GOCA). But they cost minimum 1400 EUR (without placing costs). A bit expensive, compared to lowering springs only.

Therefore, if we can order several coilover kits together, the price might drop a bit...

If not, i will go for lowering springs only.

Mine is also already lowered (H&R) but only with springs because of what you say, coilover kits are expensive.

I bought mine for 200€, I could also buy V-maxx for about 130€, it goes a little lower and also with papers. But I chose H&R just because I think it's better quality.

I think but i'am not really sure in Belgium (GOCA) you cannot exceed -30mm with only lowering spring and also the car should not exceed 9cm compared to the ground...!

http://www.how2tune.be or phone to GOCA for more informations

Homeboy do you see Jochen? http://www.frappr.com/yarisowners I don't see it...!
