    GR Yaris Dump valve

    You'll need aftermarket management to do that really mate, otherwise it will bog (like evos do with an atmospheric BOV on). With the standard ECU it will bog and maybe put a light on. The air that you're dumping has already been accounted for by the MAF, so too much fuel will be added. It's...

    Forum Event Mallory Park Friday 9th June - Toyota Only Track Day

    Very little chance of that. Would be nice though wouldn't it, I'll be in Le Mans too and would've signed up to this if not

    GR Yaris Feedback required on Fujitsubo Authorize R exhaust

    A friend drove my car last year at Goodwood and made a video for his youtube channel, there are some good sound clips in there. Mine does have a GPF delete though so bear that in mind.

    GR Yaris Motorway musings...is it just me?

    I don't like going quickly on the motorway, I think I spent too much time with a 60-70 mile round trip commute in boring TDIs. I had nothing to do but try and get as much MPG out of them as possible, and so the thought of sitting in a petrol turbo at 90+ makes me shudder! Plus the associated...

    GR Yaris Feedback required on Fujitsubo Authorize R exhaust

    Almost not worth fitting over standard unless you pair it with a GPF delete, then it sounds fantastic and still gives no drone. With the standard bits in place you can barely hear it from inside the car.

    GR Supra GR Supra Manual - Review

    I really want a manual Supra, but tbh it's a hard sell over an approved used manual M2 Comp for 10 grand less. Used S55 vs new B58, S55 wins for me. Couldn't care less about the badge or I wouldn't be driving a Yaris :ROFLMAO: I was hoping to get a drive in this one last week as I had my...

    Javelin/Toyota Sprint Series free seasons entry for 2023 season- from RRG Macclesfield

    Sorry to hear you're missing out this year, hope all is well (or is well soon!) If not already taken, I'd love to do the Mallory round if possible

    More GR cars to come....

    Oh, sorry, I assumed you meant hydrogen combustion like they've shown with the Yaris and Corolla concepts. Fuel cells are a bit different, might as well just be an EV though, they're just as heavy. Nothing GR worthy coming out of that technology I don't think!

    More GR cars to come....

    Very doubtful mate. I work on Hydrogen engines and at the moment the logistics make it unviable for passenger cars right now. It would have to be at incredibly high pressures to get a range that's acceptable

    GR Yaris Show us your aftermarket wheels.

    Hi mate, nah, I've just ran them like this. 8 trackdays and no issues so far. I use an impact gun on its lowest setting which is about 80-90Nm, then tighten to 110Nm. I check the torque before every session, it's never moved.

    That's correct in a lot of places in Germany

    GR Yaris Two car garage

    My panda fleet. Not sure what to do with the Westfield to be honest. Bought it last month for a song as it hadn't been used in the best part of a decade. It's through an MOT now, I need to take the engine out to fix a gearbox problem but once done I don't know whether to sell or keep it. It's...

    GR Yaris Eventuri quality problem

    Mine was the same, it'll be just the investigative stage so every chance nothing was actually known to be wrong at that point. It's not a big quality issue from what I've heard, just a minor thing. Don't want to start rumours but I highly doubt it's anything to worry about.

    GR Yaris Overrated : Toyota GR Yaris

    Agree with this, most of his criticisms are things I've sought to improve one mine. Lower driving position, more go, a bit more noise, more aggressive steering geometry etc etc. Some of the things you just can't get away from. 3 cylinders need a bigger flywheel because of the gaps between...

    Anyone got a Lotus 7 style car? Caterham/Locost/MK Indy etc

    Have you made any progress on this, mate? I've just picked up a Westfield Megablade this weekend, with a Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R engine fitted. It's been standing a few years but I got it running last night, and will be recommissioning it over the next few weeks/months. It should be a riot with...

    Civic Type R

    I did enquire but couldn't justify £47k, I'd be in an M2 comp or Cayman for that. I likely wouldn't have got one anyway, local dealer wanted a refundable £1000 just to be in the queue. I should be experiencing one on track in the next few weeks, I am looking forward to that!
