Location for Yaris mod installation
Hey everyone,
Just curious if anyone has a solid place where they take their Yaris to have mods installed, in the Bay Area that is. Any info would greatly appreciated |

I approve of this discussion. Best thing would be a local member with a big garage or someone who owns their own shop and wouldn't mind helping out other local members.
I know YarisSedan works in a shop on the El Camino and he helped me out with my exhaust install and did a great job. You could probably get in touch with him to arrange something. He's been really busy lately though so you should check up with him. |

Hey everyone,
For future reference when I decide on what I want to do. I would gladly pay someone that is from these boards to help install future upgrades such as lowering springs, pulley set etc. I can do basic maintenance but that's as far as it goes. Thanks for responses. |

hit me up, I've already done all of that myself. We have frequent modfests at my house for the local Scikotics chapters as well as California Import Alliance.

I would say YarisSedan would be a good contact, in the past i have taken my cars to Auto Innovations in Milpitas.

Auto Innovations FTW....sorry but one guy there does an A+++++++++ job on my past car installs. They install and work mostly on springs, exhaust, alignment and other few things.... i think they do coilovers too? Correct me on that Ric~
Speed Element = bigger complicated mod installs. They mostly work on Subaru and Mitsubishi Evolution cars, but if you print out a DIY for them (in color) from Yaris World, they will be more than happy to install for you..... They have installed my under drive pulleys.... |

So I bought the Tanabe DF210 lowering springs from Garm. Didn't feel like waiting to save the moola so I just used a credit card

If you bring your car to my shop on a weekday i can hook you up on a good price for any install. I am looking to purchase a air compressor for my house. So on my days off i do sidejobs as well from my house for even a better price.

I got some re-badge-ing to do as well as a fresh set of DF210 and a CF spoiler I need to install and drill holes for.
edit: YarisSedan agreed to help me out. Now I just gotta do the hard part and wait till I can find time to get the work done! Last edited by advocate; 09-03-2009 at 02:30 AM. |
