Excuse my saggy front bumper and the car needing a wash lol
Needs a full front end spray tbh, but that's on course for next February along with new rear arches ☺
-
Mega car! Very very jealous
-
I swapped them for my old wheels. They are 800 new though
-
Acquired some new wheels.
Absolutely love it.
-
Nah West Lothian for me man.
And yeah proper SiRs are the best, especially this colour
-
I'm sure it made silly low torque haha.
It's got an ITR air box and spoon filter, 98 spec 4-1 mani, mugen b pipe and mugen twinloop back box. All running on standard ITR ecu. Just a really strong engine man, pushing to go ITB and cammed next Winter.
And nah wont be me on the m65 because I live in central Scotland
-
Best car I've owned, so much fun to drive.
-
Here's what I'm going for looks wise next year.
Once the mugens sell I can go from there
-
Got a pic with a dream car of mine.
-
Cheers guys, different kettle of fish from a starlet, but I love it
-
Was up here on Saturday, seen it boosting in the town centre, looked and sounded amazing.
-
Wheels are worth silly money, i fancy a set of RPF1's tho.
If i do go for engine work, i reckon i'd go for a K20 or go ITBs.
-
Always wanted one of these, so when the chance to buy this came up I jumped at it. Few of the Scottish guys might recognise the car.Anyway here's a spec and some pictures.:B18C which rr'd 211bhpS80 with 4.7fdCusco LSD98 spec 4-1 ManiMugen B PipeMugen twinloopCusco cagecusco front braceSpoon shocks and springsDc2 recarosOEM rear interior and all the gathers speakers.Mugen Mf10 in Mirror Finish.Needs some bits painted and I fancy some parts to make it my own, but I must say its the best car I've owned so far.
And it used to look like this when a friend owned it...

Going in for the new engine this week.Spec is.Evo 7 Bottom end with 33000 km's on itEvo 8 MR HeadEvo 8 MR TurboARP HeadstudsGates Timing BeltGates Headgasket3" Downpipe3" turbo elbow3" Decat back exhaust.Evo 8 560CC injectorsEvo 6 ECU.Should be good for 400bhp when mapped (Need cams for 400/400)
-
Fair play. I was using mine daily when I was getting that. Was loving it till it shat itself yesterday. Lol
Mine has shat an injector, getting my Evo 7 engine fitted next week though.
Lovely car! Im sure I saw this over brum at the weekend?
Nah i'm in Scotland mate.
nice mate. i am an evo4 owner myself. car looks tons better with that wrap removed. by the way..we make a shite load of parts for this car...if you ever need anything, give us a shout !!
If its half as good as the Starlet stuff you do mate, it'll be brilliant. I'm possibly in the market for a Manifold and Downpipe with external wastegate capability.
-
It gets driven properly, just not constantly flat out.
Plus I only use it at the weekend.
-
They use more fuel, I get about 200 miles mixed driving to £40 off Momentum.
They are worth it though.
-
Slicks are gone haha, i've got some bits to sell to fund new engine.
I'd have another glanza but it'd have to be 300+ bhp, so if its that kinda power i'd swap lol.
-
Wee update on this.Removed the wrap of the roof, mirrors and pillars.Changed the wheels to some Evo 8 Enkei's.Removed the fake HKS BOV and running no BOV now.Car looks so much better.
However...Think its decided to shit a cam angle sensor, which could mean crankwalk.Getting a new engine from a 7, running an 8 head, bigger injectors and a new ecu. Should be good for over 380bhp when mapped.
-
Cheers man, I got a mini cooper s after my Glanza and missed a turbo within weeks.
Nearly bought a forged TD05 glanza again but I could insure an Evo cheaper at 21!
-
So I started a new job recently and i'm making way better money and not using a car as a daily as I have a shit Vauxhall Combo 1.3 cdti work van.So I did some thinking and decided that there was no point in me chucking mental money at the Mini, so I was as well as getting something awesome.Here's what I ended up with:
Its a '96 Evo I've.Supposedly has a VI engine and VIII MR turbo, but need to check codes to confirm this.Other than that its pretty standard apart from:Apexi Air Filter3" exhaustV wheels powdercoated in a dark red.V Recaro front seats.A/C Removed.VI Rear lights.Angel Eye headlights, which I surprisingly like.Kenwood Headunit.Bad points about the car are:The horrid carbon wrap on the roof, mirrors, pillars and bonnet vent.Fly eye on the rear lightsIt has some rust on the rear doors.A parking dent in the rear quarter.It seems to be misfiring under boost.Plans are:To service it this weekend with genuine filters, NGK plugs and Millers 10w40 fully synthetic.Remove the carbon wrap and fly eye.Get the rear quarter damage repaired.Change the doors as the previous owner gave me 4 new doors with the car.Walboro and a map if it is a VI engine.Change my wheels to the Enkei WRC Tarmac's the previous owner also gave meSome new rubber.And to enjoy the car on track. I've booked up for Monster Attack in August at Knockhill, which is where the track wheels and Dunlop slicks the previous owner also gave me will come into use.Can't describe how happy I am with the car, just need to make it my own now.Thoughts?
