  1. Yeah sure https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/323885787224 I sent the seller a picture of the stock drivers mat with the dimensions of the hole so I could use the original clip👍
  2. Started doing some work on my glanza recently as it has a small oil leak and I wanted to get to the bottom of it. Started gathering parts together and got the chance to get it up to my mates double garage to start tearing it down. I started on the gearbox side, removing the gearbox, replacing the rear crank seal, replacing the clutch for an exedy unit, replacing both gearbox mounts for polybushes, cleaning all the grime of the components and putting in back together. With that done and the box back on I moved onto the timing belt side of the engine and began to strip that
  3. Okay bud will have a proper read through looks like a good build
  4. Last week I was able to pick up a blitz super sound blow off valve for the Glanza and this weekend I was able to get it fitted to the car and working. I purchased a small silicone 45 degree joiner which I cut to size to fit the bov onto the stock boost pipe, I then used some 5mm vacuum hose to link the bov to the throttle body, replace the rubber actuator hose and bypass the high low boost solenoid. As the stock blow off setup vents the crankcase vapour into the intake pipe I had to fabricate a blank to sit where the stock bov goes into the intake pipe and put a 12mm engine breather on the top
  5. Over the next month or so I carried on making small improvements to the car. I removed the rear seats, fitted a new sunstrip, new gearknob, tinted the front fogs yellow, bought some custom mats for the car and gave the interior a good clean.
  6. After getting the car home the following day me and a mate gave the car a quick service including an oil and filter change and new spark plugs. While doing this I noticed how tight it was at the front of the engine so a few weekends later I removed the air con and fitted a new alloy triple core civic half rad with fan and shroud to create more room to work. I had the air con system degassed and purchased a shorter belt to remove the pulley then it was just a case of removing the condenser and all of the pipework from the engine bay. I purchased a civic half rad mounting bracket kit from jd tun
  7. Hi guys thought I would start a thread for my Glanza. Purchased it in October after searching for a clean one for a fair while, it was imported by dcy in 2017 and is very clean for its age. It is a White 96 spec on 150000km which is stock barring some Schneider wheels that were put on in japan and a optional extra mid spoiler. I previously owned a Yaris t sport for 2 years however I have always wanted a clean Glanza to build on and plan to keep this car for a long time.
