holy body roll

We all know you dont buy the car for the performance. Because as we all know, the car has NONE. If you think it does you're kidding yourself.

I would ask with due respect that you speak for yourself, and not for me. The car handles like a dream with minimal suspension upgrades. Additional power is available through several upgrade options.

Ask jkuchta, or 03Z33 or myself, who regularly keep up with most other cars at the track.

springs
shocks
coilovers
sway bars

and tires!

Coilovers: review the "Coilover Thread"
Shocks: the two options are TRD and Tokico blue
Sway bars: TRD for the rear is the one to get - no need for a front sway bar on this car.
Springs: several choices, including Tanabe, Progress, H&R, Tein, etc. Searching will help.

Back from the dead. This is exactly what I was asking. I have no upgrades whatsoever, and the car tracks all over the place when it's windy. Cali, no upgrades the car handles terrible. It would therefore lend itself that with "minimal upgrades" it would handle like a dream. Right? That's pretty obvious I thought, hence me asking. Thanks for the holier than thou approach.

Add a rear swaybar and some decent tires. Be happy.

My fast car isnt the yaris since thats my dd. The yaris handling isnt terrible in stock form you do need to replace the garbage tires that come on it but otherwise it handles pretty well.
Im going to have to assume you dont know how to drive and dont know the limits of the car so you assume its going to lose control. It may understeer pretty bad in stock form but it takes quite a bit to make the car let go completly. While im not proud of this ive been able to embarass much faster cars on the street in my yaris getting onto freeway onramps and such even with 50k on stock suspension and crappy general uhp tires that are almost bald it will still take most on ramps and left hand turns at 45-50 mph the right handers I have to slow down to 35.
