This kit/concept has been swirling around the internet for a few months, and has gained a lot of attention. ASI has released the final rendering of the aero kit of the 3rd generation Prius. That’s right, your plain jane Prius can look exactly like this one.
We have a pretty hard and fast rule about posting product that hasn’t been released yet, usually because we don’t want to get anybody’s hopes up. This how ever is pretty different because pre-orders are being taken. If you are interested please click through for contact info.

When it comes to hybrid cars, there are many players in the game but the Prius is leading the pack. It would make sense for tuning companies to focus their efforts more towards hybrids. Kenstyle is no different, recently they announced the shipping of their newest aero package for the lastest version of the Toyota Prius. While aero styling really comes down to aesthetic choice, I believe it well worth it to look into it if you own a new Prius.

Toyota’s MR-S (MR2 Spyder) model is one of the company’s last sports oriented models. Its lightweight design and mid-rear platform has created a nice global following behind the no longer produced car. Voltex, well know for their carbon clad wind tunnel tested aero, has released their Type-3 GT Wing for the MR-S (MR2 Spyder). For those looking to keep the rear of their car planted on the track, do look into the Type-3 and other cars fitted with this model.

The 2JZ is a legendary motor, its tuneability is something that most modern motors strive to have. With literally hundreds of examples making mid to high range triple digit horsepower numbers and beyond, the question raised is how can I transfer most of my horsepower to the transmission. What if I am working with an automatic transmission?
Titan Motorsports has released a torque converter for you! It features 3 different stall speeds 3200, 3500, and 3800rpm in order to get you power to the ground, where it needs to be.

Cusco is well known for their suspension products, they have numerous applications for all of the vehicles in their line up. The Toyota Wish (ZGE20W) has recently become the center of their attention. They have released their standard OS style front strut tower bar for the front ; increasing structural rigidity. The lower front of the car is braced properly thanks to the rear lower control arm brace.
Due to the torsion beam suspension in the rear, Cusco has created a rear stabilization bar that minimizes body roll and stiffens the rear 130%.

Cusco has released their Zero Wagon and Vacanza Wagon coil over set-ups for the Toyota Alphard/Vellfire, or better know here in the states as the Toyota Previa. The designs are aimed at improving the ride quality for 2nd and 3rd row passengers, by offering an 8 way adjustable rear shock, which is to be adjusted based on vehicle load from passengers and cargo. The kits also offer ride height adjustments while maintaining near stock ride quality.
