Hi Adriano. I need to thank you! After I saw your review of the Wiborg front suspension I went to Sweden, to the Wiborg Brothers work shop, to get the Wiborg front suspension installed on my GR together with the Cusco rear suspension and a KWV4 Coil over kit. And I must give it to you, my GR is like driving on ice! So much alive and so direct that it is ridiculous. The GR is totally transformed into a race car now and I have to thank you for that advice. My GR have the MPS Engineering GR500 big turbo upgrade with 430 bhp and together with the Wiborg suspension upgrade it is just fantastic. Fantastic. So thank you Adriano 🙂
Hello Jeppen! Thankyou very much for sharing this real life experience, I’m so happy this has helped achieve your GReat results! It takes a lot of research and evaluation to find the best solutions in all areas!
I can see doing the turns with less steer than my car I guess! Thanks Adriano for share your opinion about the Wiborg kit. My car has exactly the same feeling as you've mentioned, undesteering a bit from the midle of the turn while pushing hard close the limit. I talked a bit with the Wiborg guys and are really kind! So my GR is gona have those lower control arms for sure! Cheers and grazie mille!
Cheers mate, very happy to help! I can tell you that the arms will make such an improvement that you will be thanking yourself and Wiborg for the rest of the car’s ownership!
After installing Titanium brake shims (heat shields) my oem brakes started squealing. Then I realized that the replaced oem part is called "shim kit, ANTI SQUEAL, front" 😅
Nice video - I'll probably go back through more of them as I suspect they are about to become more relevant to me. I was planning on buying a Gen 2 GR Yaris here in Australia, but given the price rises we're seeing in markets like the UK where they pushed up the price by 10k pounds (21K AUD), I'll probably save some shekels and buy a gen 1 and spend the 20-30k difference on decent suspension, some r specs, some decent pads, perhaps a little tune and an exhaust and off to the local rally sprints I'll go! We'll see - they haven't announced the Aussie price yet, but I wouldn't be at all surprised to see a huge price jump here as well. The only thing that may save us, is that there is a price anchor in our market of 70 odd grand because they sell the GR Corolla here for that.
I reckon that going with a Gen.1 and improving it is a great idea, plus you will get to do some events, that is the main fun part! I think you will find all the information you need on my channel!
@@PIRASMotorsportThe events are the fun part. Like you, I used to own an Evo 9. In fact I owned two, one of which was a Evo 9 GT that I turned into a tarmac car and ran hill climbs in. Sold it to a guy who sadly rolled it in Targa Tasmania - a big road rally here in Australia. Rallysprints will be enough for me.
Sorry to gear you parted with the Evo and that it even got rolled! I loved that car soo much! You will have loads of fun in thr sprints, and they won’t take too much time and preparation away, very good approach!
I've put a deposit down bcm with my dealership and am checking Toyota news each day hoping they've released pricing. I reckon it'll be around 70, I think it was a 'drive' article recently that mentioned 65-70. If it's over 70 I may look at the Gen 1 which is more of a capable vehicle than I am a driver and would be more than enough for me. First world problems really.
GReat video, AJ, thanks for uploading ! So that was the BOS surprise you were hinting about a few weeks ago and where the survey on suspension on your web page was aimed at. You seem to be very enthusiastic about this new BOS "track" kit, (as you were enthusiastic about the previous BOS "R&T" kit by the way !) All in all, does the previous BOS "R&T" kit and the present "Track" kit work well with fully OEM suspension control arms, or is it mandatory to switch to Verkline or Wiborg or maybe some other reputable AM front control arms ? I'm keen on getting a BOS kit, initially looking at the "basic" R&T kit, but now there's that AJCS kit to take into account.... 🤔
I am uploading a new video on this topic today, but you will always need the front arms, even on stock suspension! The BOS update is part of the surprise, as we are verifying the feasibility of a much higher specification kit, that will come at quite reasonable pricing
Great info again, content is really improving Adriano, are you up for sharing your set up with us all, castor, camber , toe front and rear ? These Wednesday updates are the ones I look foreward too. Regards Russ...
A question or two that may give an idea for a future video. Did some searching and came up with the EBC SR11 and SR21 pads. Seems they are track only or not? Finally, if you could cherry pick from the Wiborg and Verkline catalogs what would you choose? Don't worry, content is getting better.
Thankyou mate, all noted! The compounds you mentioned are full race and super aggressive: you would need motorsports big brakes and cooling to manage them well, before even talking of chassis balance
Hi! I have installed WIBORG LCA Arms and noticed that both OEM rims and Weds Sport TC-105x 9.5'' ET45 that I used for the track touches the lower arm part when wheel is turned quite a bit. This is mostly a problem while maneuvering at slow speeds, but still I was able to damage rims a bit. Did you notice this problem? If not, I wonder if different rims helps with that, or maybe some other adjustment on your car. :)
Hello, yes on some rims the arms have a minimum interference at full lock. Not a big deal if you know. Best practice is always to check upon installation so you know if there is interference
Ma bisogna per forza togliere la paratia per la polvere per mettere i bracci wiborg oppure è solo una scelta per migliorare il raffreddamento dei freni? Poi dalle immagini mi sembra di aver visto che tu non hai installato i bracci longitudinali posteriori verkline o mi sbaglio? E poi potresti fare un video in cui spieghi le differenze tra il nuovo assetto BOS e il vecchio e per quali motivi avete preso le varie decisioni? Grazie!
Io ho installato i bracci Verkline dietro, camber e convergenza. Il parapolvere puoi tenerlo, nessun problema. Qui spiego gia’ la differenza fra gli assetti, però non posso entrare in dettaglio per ovvi motivi. Da quanto ho capito ieri, dovresti ricevere già la versione aggiornata, molto meglio.
@@PIRASMotorsport ah quindi mi mandano già la nuova versione dell’assetto? Che figata non lo sapevo! Comunque per i bracci verkline intendevo quelli trailing arm quelli camber e toe non ci ho fatto caso. Comunque per adesso ho montato i powerflex all’anteriore mi piacerebbe prendere i bracci wiborg ma con calma un passo alla volta… intanto già così va molto meglio, nose dive e squat praticamente annullati! Al solito grazie della risposta e attendo i prossimi video, sempre interessanti!
I wiborg sarebbero molto importanti: se li contatti via email con AJClubsport, avrai il 10% di sconto. Se no sottosterzera’ sempre al limite. I trailing li ho originali modificati su cuscinetto a sfera
Grazie, cerco appunto di fare una cernita tecnica molto attenta sul mercato e di prendere il meglio, cio’ che ha un impatto maggiore nel miglioramento della vettura. A volte si tratta di dover fare anche delle collaborazioni di co-sviluppo, però escono pezzi che meritano!
I like the BOS suspension Idea, but they are not cheap and without a TÜV certificate. With TÜV I would think about it, but without, it is a no go for me in Germany!
@@PIRASMotorsport on the first hand, I can understand it, but on the other hand, there are other companys that have a TÜV certificate, like KW/ST, Bilstein and the prices are lower than for the BOS.
@@PIRASMotorsport sorry, I don't want to offend you, it was just my thinking about the reaction of BOS and why they even don't try. So I have to make a single certificate for arround 3500 Euro... and than it's even more expensiv. But that's not your problem or fault!

Good to see a driving review video, you have some wonderful driving roads to enjoy too!
Yes mate, actually with camera off we did some serious driving…

Hello! Actually, you need to keep the anti squeal plates, while installing the heat shims between the pad and the plates mate!
Mine do not squeal
Yes, mine neither: his squeal because they eliminated the anti-rattle plates!
@@PIRASMotorsport Did the replacement in Toyota service, if only they had told me... Gonna fix it asap, thank you!
No problem mate, sometimes they make the hands go faster than the brains 😂😂

Thankyou very much Russ!
We can discuss details in private

How easy is it to service the ball joints? Are they replaceable?
Yes they are, very easy to switch them out and in!

@@PIRASMotorsport do you know some rims that are not touching? :) would be a good data-point for the next rim set.
@@dvimbest thing is to reach out to Wiborg for this mate!
Do the scara73 disc come for the rear too or just the front?
Just for the front mate
Bielmonte!!! Top 😉
Bellissimo!
Hi AJ, I noticed you have oz wheels similar to mine. Can i ask the full spec of them please. Paul
Hello Paul, of course! The wheels are OZ Leggera, 8Jx18’ ET35, gloss black. They weigh around 8kg and I’m very happy with them!
Mine are the same except ET 32. Car very sable
@paulneath7626 you may be right: was going out of memory but they should be ET32 mate!

With TÜV I would think about it, but without, it is a no go for me in Germany!
Yes I have many that say the same: unfortunately the volumes are too small to undergo the expensive TUV certification!
@@PIRASMotorsport on the first hand, I can understand it, but on the other hand, there are other companys that have a TÜV certificate, like KW/ST, Bilstein and the prices are lower than for the BOS.
Of course, because it is a matter of volumes. Also the quality of damping is different. I am just here to inform, not to sell!
@@PIRASMotorsport sorry, I don't want to offend you, it was just my thinking about the reaction of BOS and why they even don't try.
So I have to make a single certificate for arround 3500 Euro... and than it's even more expensiv.
But that's not your problem or fault!
@chrisklueppel83 I understand, no problem mate: I am sorry, had asked them many times to do it, but they can’t manage
Thanks
Cheers
