SRchris Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Hi guys, I know these are pretty rare, I have money waiting. Thanks! Chris
Matts Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Good luck i also was looking for a while but no luck they are saught after
morgey Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Most people say they're discontinued but a lil while back someone on here claimed his dad who worked at toyota could still get them. But be expected to pay £170 +At the end of the day they are made by remus, which sell very similar ones, the same as lazer, but the lazer ones are designed to suit the glanza bumper as it sits out further!

morgey Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Try here, the search function doesnt work on my ifail. You might have more luckhttp://www.jetex.co.uk/website/laserchooser.phpThe remus ones are like £300! Not sure if thats for just the backbox or for cat-back
SRchris Posted February 20, 2013 Author Posted February 20, 2013 Thanks for the fast response and info guys!Well I have contacted my local Toyota dealer today and they couldnt find any links the price was £203 and was named as TTE sports silencer. The bloke recomended me to contact Toyota customer service relations to see if they could track down one in europe. Still no luck and there wasnt one avaliable all over europe and the product is of course discontinued due to Toyota team europe going bust. If anybody has any tip offs or further information of where i could get one i would be really apreciative as i know they are extremley rare! Might even have to owe you a drink! ! Still my research continues for Yaris SR back box. These were TTE stamped and i was wondering if it would fit??? if anybody knows? Thanks Chris
morgey Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 having a look just now, a yaris exhaust MAY fit but it wouldnt be a straight fit, but i would say get a cheap knackered 2nd hand one from a scrappy and test fit it, see how much modifying it would need and then decide if its worth it afterwards
SRchris Posted February 20, 2013 Author Posted February 20, 2013 Tempted to do it.There was a minter being sold on Ebay not so long back absolute perfect conditon! It was off a Yaris TTE stamped Right size bore and everything! I think it went for about £50
mini1.3 Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 my local main dealer said he could try and track one down for me but yet again 170 ish plus vat '( I wanted one ended up getting a remus one on ebay cheap
SRchris Posted February 20, 2013 Author Posted February 20, 2013 How long ago was that mate? Would you be able to show me a pic of your remus?
mini1.3 Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 (edited) that was 4 weeks ago I can try and find a pic as its jammed at the back of the shedand I stripped a cat d yaris vvti sport Sr with tte backbox and that bolted on a starlet. it was far from.standard thought I still have from down pipe to back without back box at work ill match it up against my na in the morning mate might help figure it out.yaris spec1999-2003vvtisport1.3Srtte spoiler back box etc fully loaded modelbut I sold that a mate for 120 was mint thought last year Edited February 20, 2013 by mini1.3
Turbo Goose Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 I think there was a second hand backbox on eBay a bit ago that went for around £200 second hand! Crazy shiz.
RoryWebb432 Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 My dad who works for toyota said the yaris tte backboxes fit the starlet. He said they would cost £120 (trade to me) and it would take ages to get one. My sr is fucked and its being broken atm so ive got no need for one. My dad is unlikely to go to the trouble of getting me one just for me to sell on. They're hard to get hold of but if he can do it then im sure anybidy else can with the right contact at toyota. Hope this helps.My sr is breaking on gumtree. Link in ebay auctions forum.
Billy SR Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 (edited) made the mistake of not paying £115 for one on here last year. i had a remus but sold that for £40 after writing off the starlet as nobody wanted it. now i'm back in a starlet and could do with the bloody thing again! join the bandwagon, i want to make a tte up into a custom system nobody wants a tte for how they sound, believe me, my remus has a nice little rumble but was nothing exciting. they just want it for oemness Edited February 21, 2013 by Billy SR
morgey Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Haha i cut up a perfectly good tte backbox i got for £27 delivered off ebay, it now finishes off my 2.5" system nicely.Soorrrrryyyyy!!
Turbo Goose Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Haha. I think if mine ever rotted I would get it custom made again with same tip. I don't see how they rot though because they are stainless??
rmsnoel Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Remus back box is a great TTE replacement. Great fit and similar note.
Billy SR Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 my remus was a pain in the arse because i didn't have hangers, nice at high revs, but silent at lows which is good for some. never saw another one come up since i bought mine though! and they aren't cheap new!
