Tte Springs On An Sr

[dannyb999]

ok, would just like to verify, do the SR's come standard with TTE Springs, and are these SR TTE springs -30mm lower than a standard yaris. i know the T-Sport has its own springs which are -20mm than standard yaris, but i didnt think the SR was lower than the T-Sport as standard??

and if anyone can tell me if these springs will fit a standard yaris and if theres anythin i should be advised when purchasing second hand Springs??

cheers

I have no idea mate and i own a SR!

What i do know and am fairly sure of is that the SR springs are lower than the standard Yaris ones, but not sure if they are lower or the same as the TS ones.

I had a look at at TS the other day and the tyre to wheel arch clearance seemed similar to the clearance on mine. But that of course was just my visual comparision.

Hopefully someone here knows the answer .. cos i for one would definately like to know for sure.

hi

when i check the specs on toyotas site a few years back when the t sport came out the SR was 1 or 2mm lower but the sr has lower profile tyres fitted 50 where the t sport has 55.. hope this helps you.....

Hello mate

Well i remember speaking to dan about this aka yaristpot. And when he first got his t sport he nicked some SR springs off of a car and put it onto his t sport. Well it made it sit lower but the handling was all screwed up so he had to change it back to the normal one. Perhaps pm yaristpot and you can confirm this with him And i really dont know why Toyota made the SR lower than the t sport. Thats really weird

jerry!!

and they gave the SR a better back box :cacker:

Danny: no worries mate

and they gave the SR a better back box  :cacker:

Danny: no worries mate 

Well if its any consolation, they stopped doing it the year i got mine ... so i'm just stuck with a chrome tailpipe! :arrgg-matey: :cacker:

And i thought i was gonna get the fat TTE backbox too!

[dannyb999]

so it is correct about the tte springs then, there lower than the t-sport and the ones from the sr are the same as the ones u can order from toyota tte. just to confirm? LOL some just verify :P

hehe cheers

Hey guys, the SR is def a 30mm drop over the standard Yaris. I have the SR and my mum has a standard 1.0L, put a measuring stick side by side and sure enough, im 30mm lower. As for the t-sport, cant help with that one im afraid.

thanks cergon!

i simple straight answer like that was just what i was looking for! :D

[Yarisboy]

toyota are hopeless at suspension, truly hopeless!

even the 'sport' versions of the yaris and corolla sit about 20-30mm too high

I wouldn't bother with the SR suspension after what jerry said, if it messes up your car then why bother :)
