lmao now you only need a 125 shot DPNI setupI'm thinking the next part will come in this order...

TRD, Tanabe, or DC Sports Exhaust
TRD Intake
TRD or KYB Shocks & Struts
C-ONE Front Sway Bar
C-ONE Front Strut Tower Bar
C-ONE Rear Strut Tower Bar
C-ONE Front Butterfly Brace
C-ONE Rear Sub-Frame Brace

All that should come to around $1500-$1800. :yes:

Nice. i don't know if it'll have a same effect on your Yaris, but when i put headers on my car it sounded really raspy until i put on the borla exhaust. hope it isn't too much of a bitch to install! (V6 headers are) lol

Ya it will be raspy, it had that effect on my Spec V...I sound like a civic now :( just much faster.

Ya my car was a pain the ass to put the header in on also...front cross member drop and alternator off...

okay seriously who the fuck is Megan Racing I mean they came from fucking nowhereThey started off as a no-name company, but have really been coming up with some quality products in the recent years. They appear to be really popular with the RSX guys. :)

are you doing this in hopes of being sponsored? or just doing it b/c your an enthusiast??I do it because I love to work on my cars, no matter what they are. Miata, 280Z, Yaris, whatever. Tuning is fun and discovering what you can bring out of your own ride is always a fresh experience. :yes:


You don't see many Yaris' like yours thats why I'm askingThat's one of the reasons I got it. It's not another "Me too" car. :goodjob:

I feel you on not having a " popular" car to mod, I feel same way about my Celica. Quick question, you decided to go to Mainstream to have it installed? I'm just wanting to see how it comes out.:goodjob:

I plan to get them to install the engine mods to my Celica also. Speaking of that I need to ask Mr Kidd another question.lol....Vegeta

Ran
12-09-2006, 08:44 AM
No, I'll be installing this myself. A header is easy. I may go to Mainstream for the more heavier work or custom modifications. :yes:

How much HP are you expecting from this? Your car's exhaust was REALLY quiet when I saw it, so its probably really restrictive to keep the noise down. Adding this and the exhaust system might actually do a bit of good.

Ran
12-09-2006, 08:12 PM
It's on and there's no raspy sound! Thank God! The car didn't gain much down low since it's a 4-1 header and not a 4-2-1, but the car is definitely more spirited on top end. A quick dash to the interstate proved this. I'll try to get pics tomorrow, but seeing as how it's on the backside of the engine, pics won't say much. :D

I really want to see a dyno sheet when you are done with your bolt-ons. This could be a excellent choice for autoX

It's funny how inexpensive the mods are for certain cars. I know a similar list would cost me much more. So maybe I am late to the party... no more MX-5? :???:

Me too, but it seems as if you are stuck on red though... :)I actually wanted a blue one with power options, but it was an 8 month wait. So I searched and found this red one. No power options (light weight, heh) but was the only 5-Speed that I could find in the entire state. So I settled and bought the car a day after they got it in. :D

I didn't realize it was that hard to get new cars like you want. Glad it turned out like the way you wanted it to!

So you said you used to have an MSP, what happened to it?I traded it in for the Yaris.

Sold the MOMO Steering Wheel & Adapter, MOMO Start Seat, Fire Extinguisher, G-Force Racing Harness, Hyper-White Bulbs, Shift Knob, Side Markers, Flyin Miata Intake, Flyin Miata Throttle Body Pipe, GFB Blow-Off Valve, and other crap.

I got a good deal on it so I didn't lose any money. :)

I will Kill you and your family for that comment, no one will be spared.(Well I will spare Jake, he is cool.) But I always read mazdaspeed and so I just figured he wouldn't have a miata. I know there is a difference between the two.

:eek: Why. A mazdspeed miata with all that would be ballin. Also with a mazdaspeed miata I would expect you to make money on that trade not come out even.

The sad thing is, I bought that car brand new for $19,200 and in two years put it thru 8 drift events, countless road rampages, and clocked 48,000 miles on it, and still managed to sell it for what I paid for it. I actually feel bad for whoever bought the car. It's about ready to explode. :lmao:

As for the reason why...

At that time, I also had my 280Z w/ RB20DET for a drifter. Seeing as how my MSM was serving as both a daily and a drifter, I no longer needed it to be a drifter and it wasn't exactly a sensible daily. I wanted something that was more practical and got better gas mileage. The Yaris fit the bill. :yes:

I would have gotten a Honda Fit, but I didn't want a station wagon.
