Thought it was finally time for an update seeing as progress is starting to begin again. The car has been parked in the workshop since march of this year. Firstly this is why it has been parked up for so long. More: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/0903/Gordr/Glana%20Engine/ It occured whilst running the engine in,which was rebuilt Japan before it left the country. The car was limited to 4500rpm at the time so still to this day its a mystery as to why it let go in such a big way, either a huge overboost or hydraulic'd on its fuel. As there was a huge cloud of smoke out of the bac

Hi Mate I am after the 4 little clips that go into the boot lid on a Glanza so the spoiler can slide on them. Thanks Gord

I agree with that. And also agree with FTM, drove down to London and back last week and N.W Scotland and back a few days ago, both trips had to deal with so many sodding idiots! - reps in the outside lane seem the worse mid week.

Missed this thread somehow. Was totally dreading last thurs, had a bad feeling about my results this time, my exams just didnt go as well as had hoped. Saying that competing in a Hillclimb mid exams didnt help! Anyway wasnt as bad as expected. A in Business Studies B in Economics C in Geography. So off to Lancaster Uni in October to do Business Studies. Quite excited!

Thanks for the kind words guys. Quite shocked I won this month - there were some simply amazing pictures entered. Looking forward to this months entries ;)

Voting is close this month! When does voting finish Rob?

....oh dont you lot start with that as well!

Aim is to have it close to if not greater than the spec of the cruise glanza ;)

Great vid - nice sprint is Kames. Looking forward to get the glanza up there.

Ermm worked in the motor industry for many years and saved liked mad. Then started a jap import firm about 4 years ago - did alot with Rx-7s which proved successful. Rather poor nowadays mind - starlet is costing me a fortune. Anyway back on topic lol.

What make / model is it? Also how much was it if you dont mind me asking.

Very impressive mate. No concerns over steering feel loss with such wide tyres?

Looking really good mate. Any more info on the bullet cam. Want to get one sorted for when mines back on the road.

I darent work out what my Glanza stands me at - esp as I have my rebuild to pay for will be well into 5 figures id imagine. Golf stands me at about 4.5k i think. The expense of diesel is costing me a fortune mind!

Spent years working chap, and spending very little lol. Also helps as my old boy is in the trade so parts are cheap and I do all my own work so save on labour costs!

18 ;)

Great pictures. Looks like an awesome day. Would love to know if another day is being organised. Get up the west cost and highlands quite abit , some amazing roads. If you could let me know the route you went on , wouldnt mind knowing.

Hi Chap! Thanks for the comments. Hope to get some better pics done soon. Be interesting to see how she compares to the Supra , that was abit of an animal also.

Cheers guys. I want say no if anyone fancies sponsoring me! Only so far my funds will go!

Cheers guys. Be interested to find out if there is anyone else running the K3 turbo?

Can i have first dibs on your rears chap?

Indeed , just turned 18. Basically years of work means i can afford to do it, although money is starting to run out fast, esp with my Golf costing me more to run than expected. Def will keep the thread updated , and yer I've been heavily into cars and esp the jap side of things since a young age. Appreciate all the kind words :angry:

Wont have been mine chap, has been pretty much sat in the workshop since i got her. And yes 16x8 on the front 15x7 on the rear.

Im hoping i can find matching Weds for the rear. They are so light!

Cheers guys, appreciate the comments. And also thanks for the welcome :angry: Will get some more pics sorted asap, currently sat in the workshop with the engine out, so once thats back in , arches are on and spoiler on. Ill get some decent pics sorted.
