Well it arrived and it doesn't fit! I have an addapter base on my fitting and its only 19/20mm I can't seem to find a 45mm to either 19 or 20mm reducer anywhere! CAN ANYONE HELP??? Cheers Steve

Money Sent in Full bud Sorry for the delay Steve

As I don't support either team I thought it was a pretty good game! Man Utd seemed to run out of steam and ideas after 10 mins or so of dominating the game The big mistake was letting Barca get into their passing game as they dominated from then on Thought Ronaldo was going to have a hissy fit at one point which made me laugh! I thought Barca deserved the win on the night but I think 2-0 flattered them - 2-1 would have been a fairer result Steve

Thanks everyone! Order placed now so I can now FINALLY go ahead!! Steve

I am on the verge of getting my HDI cooler fitted but have realised i'll need a silicone reducer hose to go from the outlet on the intake to the SSQV fitting. I have seen other people with them so thought i'd ask and see where they got them from to save me time! (Cheeky I know but I need to get it ordered!) Thanks Steve

Thanks both - I think that helps me understand it a lot more and will be the reason why I spiked before then Will be getting it set up at YVS soon so fingers crossed they will do all the fiddley bits for me LOL! Steve

Right i've been doing some reading and I hope people will be able to give me some advice/ reassure me here! When i've fitted everything above in this thread will I experience boost creep? I have the HKS Actuator set at 0.8 bar at the moment and the electronic boost controller (Blitz DSBC) set to the same for a safe level. Should I wind down the boost on the actuator for now whilst I "Run In" the new set up? I don't want to eat the seals on the turbo or anything! I've noticed that on the Blitz DBSC when you set the gain to 0 you get exactly what your actuator is set at on boost (well obvious

Cheers folks - its taken a while and has been really annoying that i've had bits sat about and wasn't able to fit them but it will all be worth it in the end! Steve

Not your car but just your engine!? ;) ;) Thought I recognised it from looking thru your pics tho! To answer the lads question You can either put an oil breather on there or hook it up to an oil catch can Steve

Ok so pics of the bits to go on: HDI FMIC Kit SPS Mild Steel Manifold SPS Braced Decat New Gaskets for Manifold to Engine Block, Manifold to Turbo and Turbo to (de)Cat (taken extra pics with the part numbers on for anyone else who may need/want them) HKS FCD SARD Fuel Pressure Regulator & Fuel Rail Adapter A Roll of Heat Reflective Tape for the EFI Pipe 2x Infinity and 2x JBL Speakers to replace my OE ones that are SHOCKINGLY BAD!

They're a leftover from the previous owner. Her and her hubby had a type R obsession I think. He owned a EK9 Civic Type R, DC2 Integra Type R and was buying a new Type R when selling the Glanza - His Mrs wanted in on it so had Glanza R stickers put on - FOOL! Thing is they're actually well done so are a be-hatch to get off ;) Steve

Oops - Sorry! Cheers - Will get pics of all the stuff i've got waiting to go on this afternoon ;) Steve

I'm going to be doing quite a bit to my Glanza soon so thought i'd make a thread to keep you all up to date. I'll add photo's as they are taken and fingers crossed, thru the transformation process too To start with - Here it is! (and yes I know I need to get rid of the ghey 'R' sticker - its proving to be harder than I thought ) Proof you CAN polish a turd LOL! As it stands at the moment its got: TRD Coilovers TRD Exhaust System Apexi Air filter relocated to the end of the EFI pipe ToyTuning reservoir Covers Blitz DSBC Boost Controller Blitz Boost gauge Blitz Turbo Timer HKS

Don't think the Glanza will be back together then Might see if I can get up some other way or just sling it back together as it was for now! Steve

Looks great! I'll have to get mine finished off and get down to one of the Thursday night meets at the Ketch to see it for myself! Steve

Unless its from admin I NEVER click and usually hover over the link 1st to see what it is (or right click and view properties) I just deleted it!! Steve

He'll just be scaring you mate I have a copy of the section 59 thing in my glovebox just in case tho He can't do anything without going through actual procedure and issuing you with a ticket and making sure you understand it. ALWAYS take the badge number and reg plate of his car (keep a pen and paper in the glovebox too) As he's leaving make a note of his details and a quick description of him (phsically) Some cops are knobs and some are cool. I got pulled in my old Satria GTi as the cop loved them and just wanted a chat about what i'd done to it! Steve

Thats getting ever so close to fuel cut! If you still have the standard mani on there you are risking blowing the 3rd runner (due to its design obstruction) and possibly killing your engine. I'd turn your boost down to 0.8 until you get a free flowing manifold on there Steve

It sounds like you have taken the 1st couple of steps in the right direction there Rhys, i've been through depression and there is some good help out there if you want to take it. I'm sure EVERYONE on here will help out if they can so feel free to talk to us as sometimes getting stuff off your chest can be a great help. I'm only a PM away if you want to talk as i've been where you are It gets better mate, keep your head up and take care Steve

am I showing my age when I mention Dangermouse!? Steve

I'd start with the simple stuff. Get the car handling and stopping right so look at springs and shocks or coilovers, new brakepads and disks and better tyres (often something people overlook!) If you are lowering the car you will need an adjustable panhard rod for the rear suspension to be correctly aligned. Then start looking at a new air filter (possibly relocated), manifold, decat (if you want) and exhaust system to get the system flowing properly. You can do all this whilst running stock boost. Then get yourself a good boost controller, a rising rate Fuel Pressure regulator (RRFPR) and
