  1. Year: 1996 Model: Glanza V Tax: N/A MOT: 01/11/2017 Mileage: 90000miles Description: I have for sale my wifes beautiful JDM Glanza V with the legendary 1.3T engine We bought our Glanza in May 2013, when we bought the car it was mechanically sound and no rust but needed someone to love and bring the car back to its best. As a main dealer mechanic for over 15 years this was the ideal little project to make my wife the car of her dreams! Before you ask, yes the car is an AUTOMATIC. Personally this actually attracted me to the car as I think it suits the go kart feel of the car and also le
  2. thanks for the kind words chaps. Really really happy with how it came out espically with the money spent. I do see your point on the wheels and if money was no object I would have changed them but like the fact they are some random jap only make and look much better in the flesh especially with the white decals yeah there are some wonderful twisties which the glanza is made for ;)
  3. yeah I'm well happy with it, got a lovely metalic "pop" in the sun, and does look like it could have been oem of the era. I love bright colours on cars but this just wanted simple and tidy. Looks even better with decals too :)
  4. as mentioned in my welcome to the club I am in the process of restoring my Mrs jdm glanza. Done a few bits, nothing groundbreaking but just trying to make it tidy reliable car for wife and family run around! car came from jap land with the alloys, trd suspension and a rusted exhaust, now it has blitz nur spec (with bung) hks air filter and adjustable actuator in past few weeks its had wishbones, ball joints, cam belt, water pump and opened up wastegate. have still got cv boots and rad to sort as I bought one for a manual and ours is an auto. also fitted late spec bumper, grill, front
  5. that my friend is automative porn!!!! well as my mrs glanza is standard under the bonnet and we all know what they look like.... here is a picture of my cars engine hahahaha
  6. true, I probably will end up gettin a universal oil cooler but kinda wished for an alloy rad inc atf cooler as more oem and external oil coolers can cool the oil below its operating temp causeing premature wear. Mite be just me being over cautious
  7. black top? The age truely is one of the most versatile engines ever back on topic tho, I never realised all the "options" these cars came with. You don't get that any more
  8. bought a full sized alloy rad off member on here but as its from a manual car there is no provision for atf cooler. Any options people? cheers for looking webby
  9. great build thread bud, good to see not everyone is fitting big turbos and bucket seats.... Ps what Levin you got? I used to have the 4agze out of one in my corolla many moons ago
  10. cheers chaps, best thing about the roof is I never had to touch it! The Mrs and her brother did it does look cool! Yeah the back windows have genuine "starlet" mirrored film on them from jap land, was on rear window too but was all mankey so removed it but side windows were ok so I left it. forgot to mention I did grooved disks and ebc pads all round too! hopefully ill keep tho thread alive with what follows or should I start a new one not in new owners?
  11. hello everyone, although I have only recently signed up and started posting (mainly in parts wanted / for sale) we have owned our little glanza v for over two years now! I say we but the car is my wifes and she loves it! reason I have just joined and started this thread is that we decided about a month ago that our glanza really needs a lot of attention to get it back to the standard we would want (she is a little tatty) and decided the best option was to sell her, use the money plus a little extra and buy a replacement...... so we bought a 200sx (s14a) 1 week later and thankfully the g
