800~ mile update

the front dropped another 3/4" bringing the grand total to 1.5" front drop & 1.75" rear drop

i really love the way the car looks now & it rides very well (given the stock struts). the ride is definetly better then expected in terms of comfort. you would not know it was lowered if you only rode in it & not saw the outside. I really like this.

I'm hoping once i upgrade the dampers, they will stiffen up the dynamics of the chassis to "sporten" up the ride...just of my racing nature.

Hands down a worthwhile upgrade for the Yaris, especially given the price.

BTW I took me just under 2 hours to install them taking my time & figuring out a wall mounted strut compressor ( i've never used one before)...& that includes taking the tray out again b/c i forgot to plug in the wiper motor. 90% of the time is spent on the fronts.
