Tamago's guide to ultimate yaris handling

[markitect]

First off awesome writeup!!!!!!!!!!!

I have one question though, for those looking to stay in HS what shocks/struts work well with stock springs? Any side affects with that combination?

Most are designed to be paired with lowering springs so it seems like this would affect their range of motion (I need something that can go over potholes). Of course if anyone knows of reasonably priced adjustable ones let me know.

i would imagine that the TRD shocks would fair well with stock suspension, since TRD is for their mild 1"ish drop.

R comps will take you a lot further than shocks in HS though IMO

also, keep in mind, if you run a "shorter" shock with stock spring, you'll be compressing the stock spring beyond its original setting, thereby raising your static spring rate :D which isn't bad, but may get you kicked out of HS in a nationals environment. (not that an HS mini is gonna be scared of a yaris.......... )
