Samurai racer

Haven't touched the motor at all so whatever a standard 2ZR-FE puts out,you are luckier to have it in Yaris though,lighter and quicker B) @ u54mot I attempted the button but plastics scratch so easy I just let Toyota install it during a service, not that they were any more gentle :( The Hybrid badge was meant for the rear but didn't look good,so I snapped off the little tabs and stuck it on the front.. yeah , lucky to have it in the yaris , although she isnt all that much lighter , my car weighs in at 1120 KG's , but i got k&N typhoon kit and 57mm axel back exhaust , seems to work really well.

any idea what power your car is doing now ?

loving it !!

the hybrid front emblem looks great !!

wow , those seats look great !!

hey guys , need some help a friend of mine just bought a brand new 2010 1600cc Auris , chassis code is ZRE151R , what lowering springs will work on there ? what Teins can work on the car , does anyone have part numbers for me ? thank alot !

hey guys i have entered a competition here in South Africa to win a prize from toyota , i posted a article , if i get the most comments , i will win , please help me guys , its a article about my yaris projects http://www.toyotablog.co.za/blog-entry/toyota-yaris-more-it-seems Please post some cool comments guys , would REALLY appreciate it , i got 1 more day left for the comp !!

nice setup! thats quite a big gain you got on your system ? what engine do you have ? the 2ZR-FE ? Comparing your one (without CAI, header) and johnnieboi's one http://au.toyotaownersclub.com/forums/index.php?app=core&module=attach&section=attach&attach_rel_module=post&attach_id=15718 Both start to lean from 4-6k rpm, and compare the one with Yaris stock http://moe.rampage-guys.net/stuff/toyota/stokt07/palme_yaris.pdf (German, use google translate to change to english) It also lean from 4-6krpm Not sure if it is evident enough to show the lean is not due to incorrect AFR ratio, or otherwise the stock curve should not lean from 4-6krpm... Also, not sure if it is related with torque, because our car has maximum torque around 4krpm With the cat convertor sitting so close to the header, I wonder whether it is a limiting factor as well, I need more research on this.. PS John and others, I am not using factory resonator (torpedo), with the cat back, they gave me another one thanks for the great info. very interesting findings. i have a greddy info touch hooked up to my one , i will check what the AFR is like under load and under hi speed pulls. i see in a local performance magazine they have listed dyno figures for the 2zr-fe with a exhaust , the claim approx 8 kw and 11 nm increase , im not sure on the pipe size or if that includes header and maybe a de-cat , but i will call them tomorrow and find out what that all includes. it seems the 2zr-fe has very good flow and reacts well to minor changes , i currently have a K&N typhoon intake on order for my yaris TS , they claim a 5 HP increase , here is the link http://www.knfilters.com/search/product.aspx?Prod=69-8615TS so i will check and see how it works on my 2zr-fe. it would be so cool if they made more supercharger kits and other engine upgrades available for the car , as the Bemani one is really pretty pricey , but it makes great power. i only have a 57mm pipe increase from the OEM middle resonator and a megan racing rear jap can , it seems to work really well , but im thinking about replacing the OEM middle box and maybe a 2nd cat removal , as the second cat comes after the sensor , so no cell's ;-) ... but im wondering if it will be worth it or if it will affect back pressure badly ? i have heard that the cars are designed with a certain amount of back pressure needed , so will messing around with the exhaust system to much cause damage or power loss ?

nice upgrade , the car will pull alot better now , but give the ECU time to relearn and add in or take away fuel , once the exhaust settles in nicely it should be alot more fun.

thanks , great to be here!

yeah , we were luckly , we usually also dont get much ,so i was suprised we got that ... thanks bro. what auris parts you looking for ?

thanks alot ! yeah , i like to keep things simple.

love the green wheels !! looks mad !! great mod !

thanks alot for the welcome ! yeah it was a limited edition import from toyota Europe , factory fitted 2zr-fe. they sold a few in europe aswell , but not very many here in south africa , also has a 6 speed gearbox , and she goes really well , i had a race against a 2zzge zze123 corolla already between the robots and , the zze123 had a exhaust on , i managed to stay a nose ahead until we hit 170kph , then the runx pulled a car gap on me and we sat that way up till about 220kph , so i need more kw to keep up on top end , hehe. i love the wheels on your car , what has all be done to it ?
