What have you done to your c today?

This is engine chassis which is connected to 1 of under chassis

 

Ah, that's cool. I was just confused looking at your first picture seeing as it was the undercarriage, I wasn't sure where you added it. Well done.

 

Here better just foam inside the chassis I already colored . Forget about the no.1,2,3,4 that is Japan aqua G, sport added bar

 

fin-ed up. pretty much done with the backside. need to focus more on the front now.

 

Diving under braking and rising under accel is all about suspension aka soft spring rates vs chassis flex. NOT to say that adding foam won't kill chassis flex which it Def adds to the stiffening.

 

After the chassis foaming overall handling is improve , as I say before nose diving and lifting while full power has been reduce very much

 

How much you get the touring spoiler for? Was the color match exact aka oem or an after market spray?

 

Nose dive and Backwards rake would be WORSENED by a significantly Stiffened chassis. It's not from flex but a "mushy" suspension. Aka springs/shocks. The more rigid the chassis the more you notice a soft/shoddy/undersprung suspension.
The suspension has to do more work the less give the chassis and tires have/provide.

 

To be honest i get the reverse effect of what u say . My ride now is superb

 

I think it's more placebo than anything. Ask anyone who has added multiple chassis stiffening/strengthening measures and the car DOES become more precise but it also losses pliability and ride comfort. Is do this but don't want to make my car a complete mess and or break vs bend/crush in an accident.

 

I can confirm with u it not placebo effect , why bcos I have few Prius c owner line up we test each other car without knowing what inside the ride , and ya adding bars will make the ride stiffer but lose the comfortable . By the way the foam is semi rigid not rigid foam .

 

Most of bars are horizontal those effect body roll very much . Chassis foaming is vertical, get me a bars that is vertical from
Front till rear ? . Anyway I'm not selling any product here . Just my mode which I have done .

 

I have never stated anything about selling. They do have a chassis brace that runs from front subframe Mount to rear axle mount. There's a two piece and one piece with z frame out as well. Both are by ultra racing for the yaris and fit our prius. The reason almost every brace for our cars and most all cars are horizontal is that the left and right longitudinal "frame" rails aren't connected(by significantly capable points/medium) left to right and twist is allowed to happen.

 

Glad you're happy

 

Ya that I know back here we called it side bar . Anyway I did test it with another C which have full bars underneath . As usual his ride is hard and stiff but loose out the comfort . He did drive on mine and decided to add foam and take out some of it bars

 

Without knowing the whole story one can either believe or not. I have "full" bars and my ride is still sloppy and MUCH softer than most anything I've ever owned. Ymmv and everyone's previous vehicles and experiences will always mold one's current feels as well. If it weren't for the inconvenience I'd put a nice set of coilovers on this as I've done to so many vehicles in the past. But as I'll be going to cheat and run bags tis why I've added bars and braces In anticipation for the even sloppier handling that bags will bring.

 

Probably have to consider road condition ? My country road here is down the drain .potholes find u we no need to avoid it .

 

With all of the CONSTANT freeway construction here they suck. Cali has a great scene but horrible vehicle chidesand just about as poopy of roads as most anywhere else. Another reason I'm contemplating 16"s vs the 17"s I REALLY want.

 

380 from microimage. I was lucky they had the factory color match in stock.

 

. Is the spoiler easy to install? I have never done any work on a newer car always classic cars but this is something g I want to do and just wondering if it's an easy task or a pain in the butt task, lol
