  1. Yep i changed the muffler after buying the car because of the noice and how the exhaust was installed, ended way too early (i did get another muffler with the deal, so im using that one right now. Needed to just make the curve little bit bigger that the exhaust wouldnt hit the real axle, not showing in the picture). Here are some photos about the mufflers and the exhaust itself: Hopefully this helps a little bit to recognize whats going on.. I think my exhaust outside diameter was something like ~5cm/2".. sounds like little bit tiny to my ear but i dont know.. need to check it again. Because 2.25" would be like 5.7cm and its not anything like that.. and i think this HKS Hi Power Silent exhaust should be like 2.25" ?
  2. I did have the last piece of the exhaust system for sure from HKS, but im more interested that do i got the HKS from the beginning of the exhaust too? like from downpipe all the way to the back.. middle silencer for example would tell me that pretty well and of course the stock exhaust diameter too. And by the way, why on earth is the last muffler exhaust output diameter way larger than the inlet diamater? What ive learned so far, the output should be as a same diameter or even little bit smaller than the inlet diameter.. for example if my exhaust is from the beginning 2 1/4" all the way to the last muffler, then the pipe "tip" is like 4" or something.
  3. Hello to all, well i just would like to know what was the stock exhaust from the factory in this car (-97 Glanza V) 4E-FTE. When i bought my car, there was a information that the stock exhaust was changed to HKS Hi Power Silent exhaust, but i have no idea would that be true unless i know how the stock exhaust looked like from the beginning.. or somekind of dimension from it. So anybody know?
  4. Yeah i was thinking to same about the wheels.. 15" it is. Edit: Added couple of photos. by the way, what was the original/stock exhaust diameter? i would like to be sure that i really have that hks exhaust from downpipe to the end like the previous owner said. This seems to be now like 2" or 2 1/4". Was the original diameter way less?
  5. Hello to all! Well i just bought myself my first turbo petrol car ever! I have used to drive with diesel engines in the last 5-6years (bmw´s and couple of other marks too) but now i decided to go totally other direction with a cars.. The car itself is Toyota Starlet Glanza V from -97. And man, have to say that i haven't have so much fun in the past, like ever with my own cars. Its just so light, and pretty quick aswell and reminds me why i like cars from the beginning.. It was having some modifications from Japan? (im second owner in Finland, last owner drived only 4000km) The car itself is having now 100 000km on it. -JAM ECU -HKS Hi Power Silent exhaust (the last muffler is pretty much out of wool so need to buy a new one) -Arc intercooler -GReddy Profec-B Boost controller -GReddy Boost gauge -HKS mushroom filter -HKS Turbotimer -Some sort of blow off (dont know the manufactuer) -TRD cluster -CUSCO rear strut tower bar -Maybe a better clutch (the clutch was changed couple of years ago in Finland by the import company, but i can´t get the answer from them that what kind of clutch they used :X) Was hoping to get 190-200hp from it someday, just need to get more familiar with these turbo engines first.. Was planning to lower the car with BC Racing coilovers. Maybe some japan racing wheels too (15-16"). Im also trying to find some new tail lights (from 98 and 99 models), but pretty hard to find with reasonable prices.. by the way someone know if its possible to fit 98 or 99 model tail light lenses to my -97 model tail lights? And last but not least, i really need a better seats. The sitting position is just so horrible right now, way too much at front (my legs are pretty much in to my face right now and cant get the seat more backwards) And i apologize for my bad english^^
  6. Hmm thx for the reply, i think i´m looking for the used ones.. those are pretty expensive after shipping to Finland :X
  7. Looking for -98 or -99 Glanza V tail lights, not just lenses but the hole unit. And to make it more clear what ive been looking for, here are the photos of them: And need to know the price of course too.
