NEW SPRINGS: need a TEST SUBJECT - Toyota Yaris Forums

cali yaris · 04-30-2009, 08:45 PM

[edit] JULY 23, 2009

IN STOCK NOW FOR $129 SHIPPED!!

I have a new set of springs from a large Chinese manufacturer. I only have one set as a sample.

They are 1.5" drop and 4k front/ 3.1k rear. This is a higher spring rate then other aftermarket choices, I believe. They look great (TRD red), and I think they are going to work really well.

I'm willing to sell this set of springs to someone who can intelligently review them and is willing to at least go drive in a "spirited" fashion in order to test them out.

$80 shipped, brand new. If you want them, list your mods and your intentions in a PM and I'll let you know if you're the lucky subject.

Thanks for your consideration, everyone!

I suppose I'll toss my name out there. I'd be happy to give them a try. As it stands right now, I have no mods and this would be the first. I have ZERO clarity on what spring I want. One day I want nf210 to have no worries about bottoming out/rubbing, then the next day I want df because of the lowered stance. I just want something to give me a lowered stance without having to avoid speedbumps and rubbing. I'm a suspension noob, but is it the higher the spring rate the better?

in.

current mods:
custom intake, NST UD pulley, megan axleback, 15x7 eagle alloy wheels, 195-50-15 falken 512 tires, megan coilovers.

my wife hates the coilovers, so im taking apart the suspension soon anyways....

im all about go, less about show.

Hey Cali, I sent you a PM. Please check it when you get the chance.

cali yaris · 05-01-2009, 02:55 AM

If you get picked Pitt Yaris, I'd be happy to install them on your car for you.

Add me to the list. I'm about to install springs/struts in my 09.

Yea, I was gonna end up asking you if I were to get picked, haha. It's pretty much 100% I'm gonna get springs in the next month, it's just a matter of which ones. And I haven't found a good price for tinting, so I'll probably have to follow you up on getting them done by your guy.

cali yaris · 05-01-2009, 12:44 PM

k guys thanks . seems we have several motivated testers for me. I'm going to choose one at random to make it easy on myself. Will let you know today.

Also going to want pics showing the drop, FYI

No problem. Hit me up either way. We'll schedule something.

mrbond · 05-01-2009, 01:19 PM

Also add me to the list. I'd be really interested in trying a spring set with rates as high as these (even higher than the C-One springs!)
Current mods: TRD CAI (soon to be a Fujita), Megan headers, Fujitsubo Wagolis axle-back, Tokico shocks, TRD springs, Blitz 17x7.5 BRW Profile 8 wheels with 195/35/17 Dunlops.
