Congrats on the 3rd place finish.
Out of curiosity what tires are you running? Your car also looks like it sits lower than mine did you modify the BS suspension? Last edited by xnamerxx; 05-07-2014 at 07:20 PM. |

When the Yaris got its TRD shock and spring package it was rewarded by the CRB with 100lbs of weight. Now the Nissan Versa has picked up an equivalent kit, but only gained 60lbs.

Wow gearing on that car doesn't look that bad if the suspension kit isn't TRDish it might actually do well.

I also pointed out the inconsistency in their adjustments for kits, as the Yaris got 4% more weight, and the Nissan only got 2.4%.

My car does seem to sit lower than other kits. Any info Jason? Lol
If the car weighed 2400 and used the rear sway bar as well, it would be killer! |

The shocks are easy, those part numbers match up with the current stuff. But those springs are a different color, matching the old catalog images and not what we see today. Might be worth updating at some point. Maybe you can find someone with the current springs that would swap for something lower.

Jason, just checked the next few Majors entry lists for B-Spec. Mid-Ohio has SEVEN B-specs, including a 2014 Nissan Versa Note for David Daughtery. So the preliminary approval says June1 and the package is TBD?

Awesome. He made a great showing with a Z after coming out of retirement for the 50th Runoffs. No doubt if he is in a BS car it will be fast.

AWESOME!
I feel the stock spring felt better than these early TRD springs. We'll see how it goes at Texas World Speedway this Sunday! But yes, I do plan on buying the newest TRD springs soon. Is anyone correcting their rear toe alignment? Here is what my current alignment settings are with factory Toyota camber bolts... -1.6* Camber +5.4* Caster -1.2mm Toe-Out -0.8* Camber +3mm Toe-In Thanks, Andrew |

Yeah I picked up some .5mm ss shims from mcmaster. On the street car I'm very close to 0 with it being slightly toe-in

The shims don't need to be angled?

They probably should be but sometimes you work with what you got. Haven't seen any issues on the street car.
