Hey guys, haven't posted on here in a while. I started my medical program so I've been really busy. I actually raised the car a tad bit, and removed the front HD lip since it was torn up haha. The washers I used to achieve my negative camber in the rear caused excessive toe problems and I burned through my rear tires as soon as I started to commute to school. So, I decided to pull the trigger on some -3 camber shims from realcamber.com :) Since I just recently found out they almost 0 out toe! Here are some pictures of her current ride height.

Greatest thing ever is I BARELY rub at all now, even with 3 people in the car with me. But yes, next on the list is some new rear tires, and an axle back exhaust! As soon as I get the rear camber shims installed I will drop her back down. |

Good looking car!
(I can't help but noticed that you park the same way as I am. End spot and close to the curb as possible so that I'll just have to worry about one side of the car being dented by an oblivious driver when they carelessly open their doors.)😃 |

-3 camber shims and extended hub bolts should both arrive by Saturday :) Can't wait to install them so I can drop the rear back down to even it out the rake, as well as not have to worry about burning through rear tires! I actually love how the front sits, if anything I'll drop it back down another half inch or so. So excited. Also talking to a member on here for a TRD axle back that I've been searching for so I hope things work out. If it does, 2016 is off to a good start! :D

Also, just wanted to reminisce a little bit. I kind of miss this set up:
0ctuHdf by Tj Cruz, on Flickr 20150716_202702 by Tj Cruz, on Flickr 20150621_172552 by Tj Cruz, on FlickrAnd riding this low :( Although in order to get that low in the front I had to drop preload a little bit which caused it to not ride as well.. I hate how I can't turn the shock body more to lower the front end the right way, as it is close to my axle already.. -__- 20150910_170926 by Tj Cruz, on FlickrI also plan on getting the body damaged fixed this year so I hope it all goes according to plan :) ABS and VSC is still disabled for some reason.. I know I have a bad speed sensor somewhere but my speedometer is still accurate. Weird. |

Looking good! Hope everything works out for you with the body damage. There is a reason why I park miles away from the rest of the general public.. haha. People will still find a way to ding ya regardless of where you park.. :(

Thanks a lot Freestylin! Yeah I haven't really had it happen to me. I trusted people (for the most part) to maybe even leave a note if anything were to happen, but no.. So I have now learned my lesson. Once I get the damage fixed I will be the guy who parks all the way at the end of the lot hahaha.

-3 realcamber shims are on! I can definitely see how much toe was corrected! Will still have to see for sure after I get new rear tires and take her to get an alignment. High quality product, and I'm so glad I don't have washers under my hubs anymore haha! I also lowered the rear a bit more too.. No more rake ;)

![]() ![]() Ahh Yarisworld, today is a sad day because I finally decided that I will be parting out my car.. Not selling the car, but she will be close to stock. I really need to just have a solid commuter for school. So, I decided to use the Yaris for what I originally bought it for, to be a great commuter with no headaches. Get me to point A to B with not having to worry about camber wear or being limited to where to go. So, I have a few people interested in some parts already, but here's everything that I have for sale just in case people back out. Will not be shipping anything out so this will be for anyone local in Northern Cali. I will start putting the car to stock ASAP. Megan Racing coilovers (no dampening adjustment knobs, but they can be adjusted with the right size allen key) - $600 (Would gladly offer a discount in exchange for stock struts with lowering springs) (These are already pending for stock struts + Tein springs + $500 cash) 6" 10k and 5" 8k Swift springs (Less than 1k miles on them) - $250 for both. 22mm Whiteline adjustable rear sway bar - $150 10mm PG hubcentric spacers + extended hub bolts - $50 Scion FRS Pioneer headunit (PT546-00130 Bluetooth/HD radio compatible) - $100 -3 RealCamber shims + extended hub bolts. (I JUST BOUGHT THESE lol had to buy them separately too so I'm definitely not making any profit lol) These are great though, at the height I'm at I definitely saw right away how much it corrected my toe - $160 16x9 JNC 014 +25 wrapped in 195/45R16 Achilles ATR Sport Tires (Would be willing to trade for some wheels plus cash on your end) - $500 If you are in Northern Cali please shoot me a text if you're interested in anything. Thanks guys! Terence (925)301-5873 |

A bunch of friends texted me not to part the Yaris out.. Pretty cool considering they drive bagged Si's, bagged Subarus, but they still love my little Yaris :D hahaha. So, I'll take a bit more time to decide whether she is parted out or not.. Thanks fellas!
