Charlie28's 295.3BHP@1.4Bar Forged Greddy Turbo'd Glanza


Recommended Posts

Hi guys/girls!

As I'm starting to make some significant progress with my car now I thought I'd start a progress thread!

After owning a megane sport for nearly a year I decided it was time for a change.

I've always wanted a Glanza for years and decided it was the time to get one.

After viewing a few cars, I managed to find a white 98 Glanza V which Daniel Geer was selling.

Once I got the car home I gave it a good clean and removed the stickers.

Went to a local meet that evening

Next on the list was the seats! The standard seats were just awful at holding you in around corners so I purchased 2 Honda DC2 recaros and with the help of a mate made some custom rails.

Which resulted in...

The car came with a JAM Racing ECU so I decided to go down the CT9 Hybrid route and managed to get my hands on a Speedvision Gen 2.

Got this fitted and went for a drive! Was surprised how well it pulled top end!

And a picture with my mates NSX!

I then sold my buddyclub wheels to Idrees and picked up a rare set of Toms NA-R's.

The glanza has started to leak oil and it had
got progressively worse so myself and a mate decided to take a look.

It was leaking from numerous places and it was just a general mess! Luckily Rob Ebbs was selling his forged engine so I quickly put a deposit down and started to collect parts for it!

actually kinugawa is a decent company with decent products. we've used this on a few evo/sti build (turbos) and they are working fine. if you check evo/subaru forums..you will see many others who have given feedback and its all positive. they seem ok guy :)

I did do some reading up before I bought the turbo! A lot of the lads on the drift works forum use Kinugawa turbos on their cars with no problems.

A lad I know also has a 500bhp S3 running a Kinugawa turbo!

Least your trying something different, I can be ignorant towards non jap parts cause I like to bitch and moan but I'm sure it will be great lol

Kinugawa turbos are made in Japan :p

Emanage blue

460cc injectors

I also started to take the turbo apart to clock the intake housing.

Little comparison to a CT9!

I need to drill this tab out tomorrow as it's stopping the housing from rotating

I'm also going to order some braided lines and try and make myself some water lines instead of paying £50 for them!
