Yaris 1.0 GS modding suggestions!!!!

February 3, 2003

hi

i am new to this site!! this site rocks as i couldnt find any other useful sites with lots of people knowing what to do with yaris's!!!!:D

damn, alot of people got T-sport which makes me really jealous!!

i have got a Yaris 1.0 GS my self, and so far fitted 15" alloys, custom backbox, lowered 40mm with apex, sound system, tinted windows and going to get a bodykit imported from HongKong in 6 weeks time!!

But the engine really pisses me off, its slow, unresponsive and dont even have enough power to go up a little hill!!

engine mod would be the next big thing but the 1.0 engine really limits the modding ability isnt it?!!

a local garage offer me a K & N air filter for £46 i wonder if thats a good thing to start with?

and what does the TTE of yaris looks like? can anyone send me pictures of that?? and any more modding suggestions from you guys??

thank you and sorry about the essay!!

really frustrated!! :mad:

For the weight it has to pull the little 1.0L doesn't do to bad. It is only a 1.0L it's going to die on hills.

Trust me on other 1L will get past you. Look at corsa's the 1.2 goes backwards when trying to climb hills.

Why not spend 6k and have a 190Bhp 1.8L dropped in??

its not a bad idea but i have enquire about NOS before.

the specialists honestly said it would probably give me an extra 4-5 sec on accelaration which is very damn good but it reduces the engines' lifespan to about 2 years!! now thats very bad!!!

you get 6 minutes of fun out of a bottle which kills your engine in no time??? not worth it!!
