soo.. uhh... will this be in "kit" form on micro-image? you know, maybe a built and broken in motor with all supporting hardware in the 2nd box?

or maybe we can do a "core" program, where we send you our yaris, and you send us a 300+hp one while you rebuild ours for the next guy?

just a thought man, i think many will agree. your way seems much harder :)

cali yaris · 07-13-2009, 08:55 PM

A whole car as a core. Love it.

jonismyname · 07-13-2009, 08:59 PM

well, maybe just the front half? thought the whole thing would be easier so you could do exhaust and swaybar too...

jonismyname · 07-16-2009, 05:48 PM

any news? or too busy turning wrench to update us?

cali yaris · 07-16-2009, 05:52 PM

got the radiator placed, but there are some minor issues with fitment. Gotta sort that out first, then the piping goes in.

Also doing some gauge swapping and modification.

1NZYaris1 · 07-16-2009, 06:58 PM

What about the roof vent

, you can't leave that out

it's been waiting almost as long

cali yaris · 07-16-2009, 09:05 PM

that comes after drag racing, just gonna slow me down for 11 seconds

PHXDEMON · 07-16-2009, 09:48 PM

Awesome progress. Can't wait for vids of this beast at the track.

scioncrew · 07-16-2009, 10:48 PM

WHAT!! 11 second

cali yaris · 07-17-2009, 12:25 AM

^ haha Art, just checking to see if you were watching.

12.96 will do just fine.

cali yaris · 07-17-2009, 12:27 AM

soooo.. back to the topic... LOL

Art got the radiator in but is playing with some smaller fitment challenges. Here's a pic, you can also see what all the piping is going to look like.

josevenezolano · 07-17-2009, 12:34 AM

johnnypaseo · 07-17-2009, 01:37 AM
