Hood Spacers. First Ever on YarisWorld!

If your car is overheating in the summer, you should probably get it looked at, as it's cooling system isn't doing it's job. Blah blah blah it's a high pressure area, yadda yadda.

But enough hatin', you used Grade 8 bolts, yeah? I'd hate to see what would happen in a front end collision otherwise.

first of all i never said overheating I only said it gets very hot and if you dont think engines get hotter in florida summers then idk what to tell you. And most mods aren't made to help in collisions so you should be flamin everyone.

Well if you think this mod will actually cool your engine enough to see any gain whatsoever, that's fine. If you think it looks cool, that's fine too.

But seriously dude, I wasn't flaming. Get grade 8 bolts if you haven't used them already. In a front end collision it's possible those bolts will shear and send the hood into the pillars and windshield. They're only a few bucks more too.

on a yaris ur completely right its probably not gonna make more than 1hp difference and only if you have other mods already but I like the look and I'll take whatever I can get.

metric fasteners are not grade 8. ;)

and btw, NA engines perform better when they're kept hot.

Metric fasteners equal to US grade 8 are metric grade 10.9


+1 > NA engines perform better when they're kept hot

yes, engine hot, intake air cool is how to run. these engines run on heat

if it was all ceramic and you could keep the motor operable at 500 degrees
it would love it. for the current motor, it would have a fine time running at 240 deg
if the cooling system was sound and doesn't pop a hose due to neglect.
