Default T sport - THE END OR SO YOU THOUGHT

I bough my Yaris just over 2 years ago

Heres the 1st day pic I took when I was able to drive it.


Then got my k&n panel filter fitted and bought some piping for a relocated air feed.

Then I got my springs. Sorry for the bad qaulity pic was on my phone


Then the tints got done and I sprayed the alloys black which now need doing again


Leon Splitter fitted and pressed plates front and back


And Tinted side repeaters


And rear upper strut in the same day


And today fitted some alpines


Next lot of mods are HEKO windeflectors, tinted front windows, K&n Typhoon induction Kit, Coilovers and uprated discs and pads. Also got to paint the calipers which I will do when the alloys get done and finish off the centre caps for them.

Cheers for looking

I must say, im not usually a fan of the Yaris, but the few mods which you have done so far work really well on the car and suit it. Look forward to seeing more updates in the future.

figures arent that great really. 103bhp, 105lbs torque. 0-62 in 8.7secs but Ive managed it slightly quicker. Works out like 108bhp per tone apparently someone told me. With things added such as induction kit, back box and sports cat you can get up to 120bhp without a remap.

Good little cars, and I have actually seen a few nicely modified versions on the scene.

Good to see other little sports hatches getting modded after seeing plenty of the usual saxos, clios, fiestas etc etc.

Theres no point mate cause the money to get it done I might as well buy one! Plus if I was going to do anything to that power I would supercharge it instead cause you can run 140 on standard internals.

Someone on our forum has converted his 1.0l for a starlet engine and think hes pushing 230. You might of seen it cause its from down south I believe. Its Blue and its got a front mount where hes cut the front bumper to show it off lol

When I bought my T sport there was about 2 others in my area. Now theres 5 is not 6. Only a few have been modded. People seem to be getting them instead of Corsas cause they are cheap to insure and they sort of look like a Corsa as well.
I hoping that as soon as my money comes, that I will be doing a few more things to it but the scratches on it need sorting out so that has to come 1st really rather than wind deflectors or going lower.

Brake pads were fitted yesterday after 5 hours. Many thanks to Vinny and Sam for the help.
Cheers. Pics will be up as soon as I paint the calipers next weekend hopefully if it doesnt rain.

It took 5 hours? what the hell happened?
Car looks good though, definately needs to go a little lower then
Thought about getting alloys powder coated rather than spraying them?

EDIT: fix your signature too, lokos like a stretch yaris
