a celica-lotus is a huge difference,

my lady owns an echo so are you saying i should not be on this forum either?

The echo was sold under the name yaris in many markets. The xb was not. Please look up the engine in the Lotus Elise.

xb, yaris, echo, same platform.

elise, celica, may share the same engine, not even close to the same platform.
can you swap suspension? brakes? transmission? list goes on....

its not really a comparison...

You seem to have completely missed the point of my post and for some reason have taken offense to my personal opinion and viewpoint. You aren't going to change my opinion and I fail to see where in my post I said anything that related to you. You aren't xbgod and you don't drive a scion. My post was not in the least bit directed at you and yet you somehow feel it was and for that I apologize. Maybe you have issues that you need to deal with or something because to me, it seems as though you're trying to start an argument with me for the sake of starting an argument. Feel free to pm me more of your misguided anger, but please leave it off the boards.

It's great to banned by a hypocrite. But for the record I've only been banned at one site and thats ClubXB.

And for the retard on here that dosen't know why an XB guy would want to talk about that car on a Yaris plat form.

How's about they share the same motor

So any performance gain could be shared equally. (DE DE DE)

It's been a great run and for those of you that gained from me great and those that didn't sorry about your luck.

And if you thought I need to post here for attention your even further wrong.

Whats great is this thread continues on even after Ive been banned.

actually, the xb/xa/echo is in no way "swappable" with the yaris.. suspension is different, brakes are different, hubs are different, interior (seats) are different, engine management is different (DBW instead of cable throttle)

so, they share most of the same engine.. that's about it. the transmissions don't even swap back and forth without modification. this idea that they're the same platform is wrong.

I think this thread is getting to everybody . I was on scionlife.com and clubxb.com, and it's where I found a bunch of my parts for my car. And now i'm here...all is well as long as we can learn from each other.
Tamago was the one that confirmed for me that the xb trans would fit into my echo (thanks btw), I might not have gotten an answer elsewhere!
