Hi guys, I'm looking to get a used Yaris hatchback in my area, and I'm thinking by April I should have one already. I'm getting an automatic as I currently own two manual cars.

Hi all new guy from Australia, loving browsing the site!

Looking to buy a 3dr manual hatch as a daily driver. Plan would be modest lowering, TRD sway bar, 16x7 Rotas shod with sticky rubber, and an audio upgrade.

Cheers!

Welcome mate!

You'll struggle to find a TRD sway bar here in Aus. It will be easier to buy the NCP91 whiteline bar and trim one of the mounting blocks to ensure 100% clearance of the fuel tank.

New here, so here's a pic of my Yaris. 07 2 door hatchback that I got this past December. It was my dad's purchased new I got it after he passed. I did a few minor mechanical repairs as it only has 130k on it. My son and myself installed the D2 air ride and tinted the windows. More mods to come so it will sit on pavement when he's aired out.

Welcome! Post a pic of your Yaris.

Black Vitz RS Turbo · 08-11-2021, 05:10 PM

Hello all, new guy here. Bought a JDM 2003 Vitz RS Turbo about 6 months ago (it's the real TRD-thing, not a swap or anything), now starting the inevitable "build." I think maybe it's the southernmost-located one in the world (Punta Arenas, Chile). Tried to use the map thread/link, but no joy.

Anyway, just wanted to introduce the car and myself, and say that I need a lot of help and advice for this project, primarily about where to source parts (really difficult from here, as well as for the rarity of the model). Oh, I can check in on the Spanish side as well (Central and South America), if that's a good idea. Thanks for having this and keeping it going; it's already been very helpful when I was just a lurker.

Hi Everyone
I'm looking to buy one within the next few weeks.

yippiesmoke · 01-06-2022, 10:58 AM

Hello! i just got the one I've been looking for a couple weeks ago. 2009 manual. I would rather has the five door but cannot drive an automatic. Got the newest manual without stability control and i couldn't be happier!

Hiro · 01-11-2022, 04:19 AM

Hi all, I picked up an old Yaris then wrecked it, that was over a year ago and am just now getting around to putting the poor thing back together. Am blown away by how big of a following this car has, I can relate though as most people would probably just scrap the car I have.

Hi all, I'm Dave, living in New Zealand, just bought a 2009 Yaris RS. Apparently only 100 of this model were ever imported into New Zealand, so I payed the "rare" tax. I heard it was a 'special order' by Toyota New Zealand. According to the Internet, 100 were imported, 93 remain, they are 1.8L, 6 speed manual, 5 door. Enjoying it so far but it might have a transmission problem.

zukin · 01-15-2022, 07:44 PM

new to the forum have 2005 echo rs.
is there not an area where I can find info on the echo?
it seems like most of the forum is for Yaris.
