I'm looking for a Glanza for my wife. She sold her first one when pregnant with our son, who is now 3 and a half. Had a nice spec. (Roll cage, front mount, work emotion cr Kai, power fc, meister r's, TRD 1.5 way lsd, miracle x brace, TRD steering wheel, and a few other bits and bobs). Well anyway, we've been looking at new cars for her past few weeks and the few ideas I've suggested to her, that she likes the sound of( Impreza hatch sti, Mazda 3 MPS facelift) the reason she gives for liking them are because they remind her of her old Glanza. So we came to the conclusion tonight that what she a

looking at selling my gf's glanza in the near future and probably gonna sell a few of the parts seperately to raise a little bit more cash. it's a facelift glanza v and has a power fc ecu fitted at the moment. it only has standard turbo/mani so no harm really in going for a standard ecu. i know the ep82 ecu has a different harness for power fc so will steer clear of that, but i'm just wondering if all the different year glanza ecu's would be fine? also will there be anything else that i'll need that will have been changed when the power fc was installed? it does have the optional boost cont

my girlfriend did most of the paint stripping which probably took about 6 hours total i sanded them with 240, 400, 800, 1500 then autosol'd them, took about 6 hours per wheel masking took about 3 hours per colour a couple of hours spent painting them in total about another 6 hours repolishing the wheels to get the edges neat and take the raised lip off the paint. my girlfriend did the black lettering in about an hour. so 6+24+15+2+6+1= 54 hours total thats just a rough guess really tho cost was sandpaper, free off me mate autosol, already had it masking tape 2 rolls £2 pink, ye -

we did think about that, but there's another glanza not too far away with pink/silver rims........maybe next time......i can see these wheels having a few more coats of paint over the years.....now that theyre polished we could get them powder coated with clear pink so they look like pink chrome aswell.....too many choices. we did think about doing each wheel a different colour aswell and lots of other combo's -

cheers for the positive comments we dont know what they look like rolling ourselves yet cause were in it when its moving but we'll deffo get a rolling shot sometime soon. if there's anyone in the middlesbrough area who's handy with a camera that is looking for things to take photo's of we could do with a decent pic to enter POTM cause i'm rubbish at taking decent pics and choosing decent locations. -

well i dunno, you paint your wheels pink on your bluish silver glanza cause there's a few about in the area, so you want it to be a bit different......and somebody who lives about a mile away gets pink wheels for their bluish silver glanza....
