YAY! I have more than one, actually. (believe it or not, my prior "daily" got better gas mileage than my yaris)

TheFallenV2.0(?) also has one!

Yeah, I believe it's possible. The CRX is so much lighter and about 2/3rd the height of the Yaris. The HF version was supposed to get up to 50 MPG but to be honest, I never got more than approx. 30, which was still pretty damn good back then.

Hey, my 1.8 TS make more revs on that speed. It's no problem for me. The engine can have it.

By 205 km/h (GPS) it revs 6281 rpm. ( also on the German Autobahn)

BTW
Mabey a gearbox from a diesel have a "longer" fift gear a you can put him in your gearbox.

The irony of that Scan Gauge in the pic is of epic proportions.

Ja, ich weiß. aber vielleicht der fünfte Gang des P1 Diesel länger, und kan er in ihre Getriebe montiert werden.

TRD Japan actually offered a shorter and longer gear ratio option for the C56 tranny on your 1st gen TS. You would probably have to get it from japan and it would be pretty expensive.

A MUCh cheaper and feasible option is to get an used tranny from a US spec Toyota ECHO.

It should be a direct swap and the gear ratios are way longer! (meant for US highway driving and fuel economy)

cali yaris · 11-03-2009, 04:48 PM

If you have a TRD part number, I can get it from Japan.

*tomato* · 11-04-2009, 01:11 PM

^ I looooooooove

the CRX. Mine was going on 23 y old when I traded her for the Yaris. It was a tough transition, let me tell ya. That car was a lot of fun to drive, even stock, and yes, you could get some speed out of the HF, too. I wish I could have kept it, but I needed a low maintenance DD and a car that age always wants a little something fixed, you know

Here she is. http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/alb...pictureid=1555

Man, I loved the handling of that car. Sure miss it at times

My brother had the SI, a little more power than mine. Damn these were good cars!!

Sorry about the thread jack.

i have also had mine up to 115mph and it's not that bad but i've only done it a few times here and there (when i'm really late for work) but i just don't think i would feel good about sustaining that speed for a very long time and especially not frequently.

curik · 11-05-2009, 11:10 PM

I've just noticed that a lower number for final drive means higher top speed. I thought it was the otherwise. That means TRD actually makes a longer final drive for the yaris, albeit it has been discontinued.

http://trdparts.jp/english/list_race-mis_ncp13.html. Look at the gearing chart, stock maxes around 220, and the TRD maxes at almost 250. These are theoretical max speed however..
