well correct me if im wrong but i thought for fwd cars in order to reduce understeer one would use stiffer springs in the rear and softer in the front...thats why i didnt go ahead and beast up the fronts...but if i am incorrect then perhaps something similar to your setup will be in my future

i have battled with that thought...

some schools of thought think stiff rear on FWD is better, some think not. when i tracked the yaris the first time, it was on tanabes and had the 23 mm rear bar. the car was great, balance perfect, and a blast to drive. i put the stiff springs on the rear, i never got to track it, only autox. and i wasnt real sure i liked it. so i did the suspension like i have it now, and i think its better. next time i go, i plan on swapping parts on different days and trying it out.
