Makes a change from people taking them out haha, mine still in but I don't bother using aircon, windows down is good enough for me.

I was going to get some eBay one's for £12 but now seeing yours from Toyota it has changed my mind, not cheap but worth it, I bet your v looks brand new when you get them wheels refurbished :-) keep up the good work.

Your v looks lovely, I thought mine was the only one with the OEM Wheels on haha I need them glanza decals:-)

http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/95000-immaculate-restored-1996-glanza-v/#entry1123608Go for this, not forge but got to be the cleanest glanza v around with no problems, you can always forge it but it would be ashame.

Pm S/S Exhaust

I use to use Fairy liquid on my first car haha

AD do some top stuff www.autobritedirect.co.uk at the moment I'm using there car shampoo luxury suds then poorboys car polish with sealant & to finish off with sonax extreme car wax, with all three my car comes up looking newer than new.

Cheers, they was old struts on new springs & shocks, I should of put new struts on really from the start.

This happened to my old v everything standard up until I put a blue flame performance exhaust system on, I was only doing 45 50 then the engine management light came on so I pulled over for a couple of mins & then started her up again, I had no problems at all after, all was fine no engine lights ever came on again.

I have had a couple of spacers made to fit to make it stronger, hopefully it will stop the shock pushing up again next time I hit a grid

Looks even better on a tablet haha, what's the milage on this beast ?

Yes it is original exhaust, can you not see it sticking out at the back?

I was wondering who bought the GT Who's bought the silver glanza v then?1999 7000 kms from new

I would be asking more than that for it mate £4000 plus, look how much car dealers asking for them £5000 plus & not as good condition as that. I no some people will think its got no mods on it but this is the best way to buy a good standard one then you know your getting something with no problems unless the car has been put back to standard then have a good look over it. Good luck with the sale looks a minter.

U will probs still have the cat then custom down pipe, I'm no expert on mods but short root air in take & new manifold I have read up on some peoples ganzas they have experienced fuel cut with the short root sucking in more air but there is ways around it with more mods to fit & tuning the engine. Good luck with selling your Scooby, I take it you still prefer your glanza v with selling the Scooby. I have got mot due on mine very soon hope mine sales through :-) I have gone the other way with my v it looks pretty much all standard apart from a back box & lowered 35mm I'm after A New HKS exhaust next after mot.

Are you insuring it as a glanza ? or the UK starlet ?

No probs mate, how's it coming on? Any pics:-)

So is this the washer that's missing? or should a washer or spacer fit into this? I have been to the garage that fitted the new shocks & springs & they said they swapped everything over from old shocks. There going to take a look for me tomorrow.

What colour is your gearbox oil? If it's red then leave it, if it's a dirty dark brown best to change it for peace of mind. Your auto has only done 24000 miles it should look red. The manufacturer's maintenance schedule for many automatic transmissions doesn't call for fresh fluid until 100,000 miles, My auto is at 56000 miles & i doubt that its been ever changed & the gearbox oil looks fine.

Should that stop the knocking to? Only it was knocking before it pushed through the mount but now it makes a right noise. Cheers for help

I think it is the strut that's bust they only have the one washer that fits on the top mount don't they? Then the strut. Is this the right part I need to order? http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=291053552061&alt=web

Is this something I can see if I stick my head under the wheel arch? I will try & take a pick. Thanks guys

That's odd it was a mechanic that fitted them so I have no idea what's happened here, has anyone got a pick of the washer I need where can I get one & what size, are you guys sure it's a washer that's missing? Will this have fucked the strut mount up because of this or will it be fine when I get a washer? I will be straight to the garage Monday morning.

My dad use to own one, Toyota cressida, he worked for Toyota he was a foreman mechanic they gave him one of these cars & when I was a kid I hated it at the time, I felt embarrassed when he pick me up from school in it I didn't want to be seen in it at all haha boy I would love one now. https://youtu.be/TLoAdsj5jRo
