The 3 tabs on the spacer align perfectly with the 3 triangular holes on the door; insert and twist, done!

They will work perfectly for the rear as well; I used the exact same item to do mine all around.
Exactly my situation. Excited to hear how the Godspeeds turned out for Marklovski.
Throwing my hat into the ring here... was an amplifier tuner from 15+ years ago in many different SPL competitions and vehicle setups.
Something to remember is that while your math is...
Hey all,
Went down to my local car yard and picked up a set of rear springs from a 2008 Yaris hatchback with 25k on them for a whopping $50.
Here's a pic of them installed:

As I was...
Wow, been awhile since my last post. Not much happening with The Slug as the new place is keeping me busy.
However, I did manage to finally snag a set of rims and tires just last week! Bronze...
I also feel this way; slightly surprised to see that both strut bolts weren't incorporated into the bracket. Was it because the strut tower bar mount got in the way?
Is there something we're...
Drooooool... TIG porn has consumed a few hours of my life. :D

Looking great! I've also got a white one, so I'm glad to see that style of wheel on there. :)
Over the past 9 months, I went from OEM springs to full Amazon cheapies, swapped just the rears

This is a public forum. Any opinion is valid unless shown to be otherwise. Honestly, I'm
surprised by your vitriolic seeing I've provided irrefutable evidence to back my claims.
The stiffness you...
Here's the problem with this... what's the point of a first stage of a dual stage spring if you're only going to start taking measurements on the second stage?
At 150lbs the first stage is fully...

Alright! I was reminded that we had a mechanical scale stashed away in the basement that is
accurate to within a half pound, and it worked wonderfully for this...
That's what I suspected, regarding the TEINS. Once you match the correct spring with the correct
shock, magic happens! :)
I would like to mention that in the same way I know the rear springs are...
Fair enough, but for the 10 mins it takes to swap them out, it's probably worth trying to see the difference sometime.
There was a negligible difference in body roll going back to OEM rears in my...

Expensive, but seem to be the best of the best. :)
Thank guys, I really appreciate the warm regards! :D
Mirage is good, I'm good (now) and life is moving forward. I'll be sure to update my garage with new stuff soon... next thing is that armrest...
Springs installed! Bought them from Amazon here:

I second debburyl; fantastic job!
Apologies if my attempt at facetious humour sparked by frustration from having Towing 101 Common
Sense repeated over and over without directly addressing the actual question, and reason,
we're...
Since when is having an open ended debate about the possibility of towing with the Mirage under specific
conditions 'talking myself into a corner?'
Let me re-clarify since the first time didn't...
Yes, you're right, sorry. I mixed the terminology up. I was referring to the fact only 150lbs of
weight resides on the trailer hitch in a neutral condition, not the entire weight of the trailer. You...
When he asked what the towing weight limit was, I said there wasn't one stated in the manual. He said it wouldn't
matter to him anyways as they wouldn't have any reason to fine me unless I was doing...
I've already discussed this in detail with a Transport Canada officer who says it all checks out,
so long as I'm not knowingly driving in a 'manner which could be unsafe'. Meaning, if this thing...
Was looking at the links you provided in your build log... awesome work! Knocked some major
wattage/amperage off the system! :D
