  1. Thanks mate got my clear indicators fitted today as well and gave the car a wash but forgot to take any pictures! haha oh well
  2. Sure you don't have an adjustable actuator that's set too high? Or maybe if you have an exhaust or decat or a well placed intake or something like that that might just make it go over boost cut especially at 6k revs when it's cold like it is? I'm not sure, just my 2 cents
  3. I got a manifold and actuator off him, it did take a while for courier to get it here, like 2 or 3 weeks ish. He didn't give me a tracking number even though I asked a few times too and I got worried but it did arrive in the end! And yeah postal service is busy busy at the moment pal so it's probably just that
  4. Bought Glanza-man's old bumper, looks miles better and meaner! Just needs a front mount for teeth haha. Hopefully I can get my clear indicators on before TD next week!
  5. Parts parts parts! Most of these are for when I go to TD, should be having a front bumper delivered before then!
  6. Aye cheers dude! Thanks! Yeah I know It's on my long list of things to get haha, it wasn't n/a originally just the last owner put n/a ones on
  7. Hey Time I got one of these up! I've had my glanza for about 2 months now and it's my second car (I know risky and all that) and I've had mixed feelings. For the first few weeks it was off the road more than it was, the clutch went at one point, another time a pin that connects the gear stick fell out and found it it was bodged, I found out there was a fair few important bolts that holds the gearbox to the car was missing too, and theres been a few other times the thing just failed on me. Currently it works but it just seems noisy inside and the brakes don't really work as they shoul
  8. As title says, preferably with plastics! Thanks
  9. Yeah standard intercooler and exhaust for now, I'll try and get hold of a decent boost gauge though! Lol yeah I'll keep my foot steady whilst it's cold haha
  10. Awesome, we finally got there lol. Cheers dude
  11. Right ok, well wouldn't a decent exhaust system increase boost creep even more? Along with some of the other mods you listed? and I don't plan on increasing boost yet but boost creep will do that on it's own and damage things which is kinda why I started this thread haha. I think porting the wastegate sounds ideal for me because it's free primarily, but I'll probably be getting a plug and play at some point too! and yeah I'll buy genuine gaskets, cheers for the heads up on that one Lucky you! How much did that cost? Right well I do have a speedvision mani so I could put that on at th
  12. I'm just gonna fit the fucking thing and see what happens, balls to it
  13. Yeah I know you meant the turbo wastegate lol, I might give it a bash with a dremel but i'd probably need a full day to get the turbo off, get it done and all back together again, and that's if I think I can trust myself to not fuck it up haha I would do that but couldn't boost creep still put it past whatever I set it to and eventually up to fuel cut? Sorry for being such a noob I'm learning as I go I've got a standard exhaust, some random cone filter that was on the car when I bought it, but that's in the standard air box location (to the right of the engine) and no I don't have a fmic y
  14. But other people are saying port it, would that not be a more permanent fix and probably cheaper? Can't afford a plug and play right now anyway thanks for the link i'll have a looksie now
  15. Well I don't mind getting the wastegate ported as long as it's not too expensive and time consuming as my glanza is my daily (risky I know lol) but i don't know who will do it near me for a start :/
  16. Christ all this for a decat lol fuck it I'm just gonna leave it, sounds like far too much hassle for a decat and expensive too
  17. It's not a new actuator but I have got a speedvision manifold on the way so I imagine that will help and I won't have to port my stock mani. I've seen a few gauges for less than a tenner so I might just grab one to set it all up with! Eugh I can never win! Any ideas on what to do then? (on a limited budget by the way)
  18. Yeah it's probably a wise investment, how much do they go for? Don't wanna spend much on gauges yet
  19. Nope, is there any other way of seeing what boost I'm at without one?
  20. Funny you should say that I've just bought a HKS actuator, now I've just gotta figure out how to use it
  21. Ah feck, from what I know fuel cut isn't that easy or cheap to get round safely either
  22. Yep that's right, sorry I only just saw this!
  23. Hi basically I've just got a blitz decat for my pretty much standard glanza, would installing the decat make it boost creep and boost cut like a bitch? If so what do I do to stop it? Thanks
  24. Aaaah I see, thanks guys I'll have a look next time im underneath
  25. Yeah I can see the flywheel from under the car and shit if I have an LSD that will be a bonus! This it? http://id-workz.co.uk/toyota/starlet/starlet-glanza-ep91/drivetrain/oe-genuine-gearbox-sandwich-plate-oem-lsd
