Looks clean, what size are those rims and tyres? Would be nicer if the car was lowered some more.

You would need wider wheels for more traction so you can turn corners faster. Also good tyres will help too. I havent done any performance mods on my car as i have the 2NZ so i dont think its worth doing up. Just doing suspension mods so i can chuck the car around.

Got the lights in the courier today finally.
Kinda suprised the taillights ended up a lighter grey colour. Not as dark as was shown on by the seller.

Yeah the taillights look lighter then the ebay pics. Hopefully its straight plug and play.

Just a quick heads up for those running , or want to run LED
indicators , instead of using Load resistors you can now buy this just remove the old relay and plug the new one in . |

How does that change the indicator to LED? Wouldn't it be LED bulbs already in it? lol.

Looks like its not just plug in and turn on. I was looking at the DIY and the connectors are more horizontally shaped. Not sure how they are on the Australian ones.
The shape of the one on the tails is kinda more square. Might need to get new connectors hey vince. lol.

Its supposed to slow down the flash rate of your indicators once you replace LEDs globes with bulbs.
Thats no good, more modification with wiring harness. how fun. Would be swell if it was just plug and play. Will probably have to go to toyota to get the right plugs if they dont fit correctly. Anyway i just found the plug for yaris tail light. Is the aftermarket tail light plug like that? Last edited by lunjiaow; 09-17-2009 at 07:24 AM. |

You are probably going too fast on that corner, or you are running low cost tyres. I would go 15x7 if possible but most rims you see are around 6 or 6.5. I have 17x7s and 16x7s. Seem to grip quite well. I dont speed around corners in the wet =P
Sounds like a great suspension combination you are getting. Im sure that's enough to have lots of fun. You could get a Cold Air Intake and even an exhaust system to make the car sound nice. |

My alloy's are 15x6.5x44et with 12mm rear spacers , with 185x55x15 tyres great in most conditions except snow ,lol, tyre compund and pressure could be your problem as well as fitment on the 5.5 rims deforming sidewall too much . |

Some photos i took after install today. Took like 2hours or so. Thanks to my friend for the assistance and help. Did most of it myself with his instructions, was kinda scared to. lol Left headlight clip needed some heatgun action, as it didn't fit as well as the right side. But all good now.
