TRD SPRINGS AND SHOCK ,TRD SWAY BAR , TOYOTA OEM CAMBER BOLTS
THIS IN REGARDS TO WHICH IS BETTER , THIS ALL DEPENDS ON THE ALIGNMENT SET UP. BY FACTORY YARIS DON'T HAVE A RACING SET UP SO WHEN YOU LOWER YOUR CAR WITH FACTORY SPECS, IT WON'T HANDLE WELL .THE KEY THING IS TO ADJUST THE CAMBER ,ZERO OUT THE TOE, IF YOU ARE USING SPRINGS BUT IF YOU PLAN ON USING FACTORY SPECS OR IF YOUR NOT A PERSON WHO IS MECHANICALLY KNOWLEDGEABLE JUST STICK TO THE SWAY BAR . THE REASON WHY THE SWAY WORKS ON FACTORY SETTING IS BECAUSE THE FRONT TIRES LACK THE ANGLE NEEDED TO CONTACT THE ROAD DURING CORNERING ,WHAT THE SWAY BAR DOES IS IT DISTRIBUTES MORE OF THE WEIGHT TO THE REAR CAUSING THE REAR TO TAKE MORE OF THE CORNERING FORCE. THIS INTERN CAUSES THE REAR TIRES TO HEAT UP FASTER AND LOOSE TRACTION ,THIS IS WHAT CAUSES THE OVER STEER OR NEUTRAL FEEL WITH THE SWAY BAR. I USE THE SWAY BAR ONLY BECAUSE IN WINTER THIS RACING SET UP WITH THE COMBINATION OF WINTER TIRES BECOMES TO UNSTABLE SO I ADJUST IT SO
I HAVE LESS CAMBER AND MORE TOE ONLY IN WINTER TO MAKE IT A LITTLE MORE STABLE.
