SoCal Checking in

Post by RningOnFumes »

Howdy guys,

I've been lurking on and off and I thought I'd finally say hello.

Great site, I've learned a few things here and have even quoted people for other forums. lol it was here that I found out why my car whines in reverse.

SoCal--->Inland Empire----> San Bernardino.

Other sites I frequent are ToyotaNation and YarisWorld. Yep, I have me a Yaris Sedan 5mt.

Fumes.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Thank you all for the warm welcome.

Rest assured that all arms and legs and appendages with no muscle function will stay within the passenger compartment at all times. But because of regulations, please do check for double occupancy should there be steam in on the windows and the the vehicle is rocking in a side to side motion, sometimes up and down---as there is no promise of what said appendages with no muscle function can not do while in the limits of the vehicle. When vehicle is in motion while velocity is zero, parking brake is on and gear is in first, Reverse on inclines. :lol: :lol:

haha,

See ya guys around.

Fumes.

Welcome, brother. Enjoy the ride. Oh, and it tends to be a bit bumpy, so don't eat a large meal before riding.

Thanks... haha, is that a request for me or for wannabe?? hahaha


LOL... I call these glamor shots- for a yaris lol!
Very few mods and interestingly, I have yet to pay for them:

Magnaflow catback, center exit - free
Fogs (gotta install them) - free
Tokico struts (coming soon) - free -- will need to buy some complementary springs to go with the struts.
How did I get them free? Advantages of having a relatively new/unknown car, I was lucky enough to be found by manufacturers who needed cars for prototypes!

Wishlist: tint, alarm, and tires/or lightweight rims.

Thumbnails for your convenience...

I like your Yaris but not sure how I feel about the center-placed exhaust. There are few cars that can get away with it while looking good.
