Rite, writing up a build thread has been on the cards 4 a while…. Well a year lol just never got round to it till now, so hear goes

Bought my 96 Glanza V roughly a year ago now, ive had loads ov cars and this 1 has got 2 be the best 1 so far, I don’t usualy keep them long and its looking like ill have my we V 4 many years to come!

This is how it looked when I bought it

It had a few mods,

15” ROTA slip’s

5 Zegin exhaust

TRD lowering kit

MOMO steeering wheel

HKS 60mm boost gauge

Dump valve

Boost upped tp 0.8 bar

I ran about in it 4 a few months, but I couldn’t handle the seriously slowness, so I started modding

First came a set of D2 coilovers to get her a bit lower

Being new to the starlet scene I went and bought sh*te

Autobahn FMIC

Speedvision stainless manifold and decat

I had these bits lying around 4 untill I chose witch turbo to go 4, decided on a GT-Spec hybrid from tong turbos anlong with a HKS actuator

So once I took delivery of the hybrid, I started fitting all the new parts over my Xmas holidays. also gave the underside and wheel arches a thick layer of waxoil when the exhaust and suspention was off!

Nearly ready 4 the road

Fitted a cheeeky fordge MBC

Oh and also fitted a sard FPR set it at 2.5bar and .8bar ov boost to be safe and took it 4 a blast, I was very impresed with the gt-spec hybrid pulled very well with such low boost!

Few pics after a wash

After a few days of .8bar, turned it up 2 a bar using a greddy bcc. Realy made a big difrance and woz happy with that 4 a while!

Fitted a TRD short shift

After a few months my manifold cracked! So started ripping it apart again!!!

And fitted RR manifold and Decat,

I thought why not get a beter FMIC at the same time, and a new radiator as mine woz leaking (alloy 1 was much cheeper than origonal toyota)

After all this she deserved a full velet!

Fitted these integra dc2 recaro seats

After a while I relized these are to good 4 a track car so sold them and put these in

Changed from TRD shifter, 2 C’s shifter (in my opinion is much beter)

Rite im going to miss out some progress for now, recently fitted a jam ecu and ran 1.2 bar and it woz wikid

So a couple ov weeks later a mate wanted 2 buy may set up…… im here again lol

Bought this a few months eriler so I can take my time with the glanza and still hav a nice drive oh and 50mpg and all the gagets u would ever want lol

Looked terable so changed it in 2 this

Got a smaller spoiler, but its not yet fitted due 2 my painter a fanny and droping it after painting it! And never getting round to redoing it!

Back to glanza

My mate mate needed a new head so went halferz on an engine from fishygt with a fucked botom end so I could use the botom end for a forgie!

New parts have been flooding in …….

Picked this wee fuker up 4 30 quid, wouldn’t realy buy sumthing like this but it woz cheep

Cheep and cheerfull, canny go wrong

Wos after a egt gauge and noticed this, boost gauge and egt in1, so I thot y not treat myself and 100quid new woz a bargin?

Wideband bung

Turbo smart external wastgate and MBC

Another omori gauge

And an adaptor 2 suit

Few gaskets ill be needing

Got this ported and polished head on the way from steve! To go on my to be forged block

Im now skint lol, once I get my other glanza sold ill have sum more 2 spend. Cant wait!

Got some work wheels to put slicks on 4 the track

Wheel nuts and valves and some vacume hose 4 the engine bay

im sure just the flanges ar mild steel, the runners are sum sort ov cast

yup bot it 2nd hand but unused. a mate ov mine bot it so its away to get welded and faced

cheers,

Ramsey

lol, yeh i no, mild steel tho

ive had this manifold on the car 4 about 4 months and its badly cracked, does anyone no anything about warenty on these?

cracks ar on both outside runners, just about rite round!

cheers,

Ramsey

as above, wanting to buy 1 thats going to be reliable but resonably priced. and capable of adjusting between .8 bar and 1.5bar

a point down the right road would be great as i dont no anything about these lol

cheers,

Ramsey

yeh, feels much beter 2 trd shifter, im gona put the c's shiter in my car and get rid ov the trd 1

Had this turbo for 8 months now, and it realy AMAZED me wot a ct9 can do! ive ran a number ov setups from 0.6 bar to 1.2 bar the midrange difrance form the standard is unreal even at low boost. im runing it a 1.2bar with a jam ecu and it puls well 2 8k! best 410 quid ive ever spent on a car!

sorry for the late feedback, just wanted to put it thru its paces lol

cheers,

Ramsey

Ps, i took the turbo off after a fair amount ov miles to change manifold and the wastgate is still mint, no shaft play, it wos az new! ive done alot ove miles with this turbo without any problems at all, i would recoment the gt spec to anyone, very very good value for money!!

yeh thats wat i thot, theres not alot ov kits out there. fells amazing compared to trd!

does anyone no wot make this is? it feels 100 times beter than a trd

click to enlarge the pics:

well the inlet is 55m on they hybrid i think, wouldnt b much smaller than a tdo4 etc? theres alot more lag 4 sure. doyou have instructions 4 hks fcon? thnk i spoke 2 u before about it

you shouldnt be experiencing much lagwith the std ct9 fitted anyway, but as far as im aware a hybrid ct9 wouldbe a good route to less lag.

hybrid = bigger internals = more lag

correct me if im wrong
