  1. Hey guys. After the summer I'll be buying a red UK spec SR starlet 4efe as a project. I'm going to be rebuilding everything from the ground up, not going to ridiculous power (around 200bhp) just want a very clean example of a glanza, in red lol. I would buy another glanza and use it as a project but im thinking it would be cheaper, and make the car more 'my own' if I fully re-do and build it myself, and it'll be fun lol. I have a glanza now, on 220,000 KMS's, its in good condition for the age but by the time I pay for a respray (want a red glanza :/) in the door shuts and engine bay, wire tuck etc etc and strip it all down and back up again, and I'll need a car to use in the process, So I was thinking I could keep using my glanza whilst I prepped the SR, got all the bodywork, suspension, etc done. And switched the engine, loom, box, intercooler, exhaust over in a weekend (hopefully) I'll be using all the interior plastics etc, basically everything from the glanza into the SR, except the bumpers as I'll be going for a varis kit and bonnet. Has anybody else done this before? I know it may seem pointless whilst I have a decent, working order glanza, but its soemthing I'd like to do Anything I need to know before I attempt this? Any big differences between the SR and the Glanza shell/chassis? Thanks for reading, and thanks in advanc for any help
  2. good write up dude similar to toby's write up a few years ago, but more detailed
  3. cheers dude, just priced it all up on idrees website, going to wait until I get paid next and order some extra bits too at the same time I guess Cheers for the help
  4. Right guys and girls, just goign to pick your brains Had the glanza for a few months, but everythings been mad hectic so I've had no time to do anything with it, except the school runs in the morning. It needs Tax and MOT t the end of this month but I've let the workload pile up. Basically does anybody know a good website (not ebay) to buy all serice items and brake discs and pads all round? I've trawelled google and not found too many websites that will sell the whole lot at a fairly good price, camskill dont have rear abs discs? Also its fitted with a decat, my old 1993 EP82 got past being a pre 94 import (or something similar) but my glanza's a 96, will it pass emmisions or is it going to be a ballache? I've herd some stations fail the car simply for not having the cat present? Thanks in advance
