Like what you've done with the wheels! Just need a Glanza bumper now I reckon

I'd have thought it was simply a service?

no i just go for quality oe items every time.

ive had 3g slotted, some jap slotted discs, dba slotteds aswell, in every case after about the second set of pads they start to crack

so just stick with quality oe discs, but if you have the cash feel free to get some slotted discs, they do to some effect stop the pad glazing.

i just dont see the point to be honest. its a wearable item

Cool, thanks mate!

Ah I think I saw it on Ebay too Get those pics up

^Nice!! Is that a GT spoiler by the way?

DAAAAAAAAAMN THAT'S NICE! Awesome find man! Specs?

you have covered it all, the fluid is important, warn used fluid is no use and goes someway to explaining a spungy pedal - its propertys are not what they were,

get dot 5 in there along with the braded lines, uprated pads and bmc and your laughing.

the bmc really does help, this is the setup im running on both my starlets

Geo have you uprated discs or stock? I'm interested in improving my braking power too

Liking the car bro! Looking forward to the pics!

How many miles has your 5e done? I'm pretty much certain I wanna do the swap (next year hopefully!). Oh and where did you source the engine from? How much did you pay if you don't mind me asking? :harhar: Keep it up dude!

Hey man, car's looking good! How much did you pay for the shocks if you don't mind me asking? Did it get rid of the bounciness you get from having lowered springs?

Very nice mate. Was nice meeting you.

Told you they would look good in there didnt i..... its somthing a bit different thats for sure.

Get yourself some glanza door cards or somthing mate.

If theres anything i can help you with just give me a shout and ill see what i can do for you!

Yeah you too man! I've got wind-up windows haha so I assume Glanza door cards won't fit? I'm gonna take it apart and just see if I can do that green bit it myself

Car looks smartt mate,

Feel the Diff with the rola mani??

Awesome little mod to the car lol

Thanks bro, yeah goes so much better top-end! Did you manage to find yourself a strut brace? The GT/Glanza one is a nice upgrade for next to nothing!

Good progress mate debadge the bonnet ;)

Thanks Sparky! Yeah I'm in two minds about it, I'll give it a go when I mesh the grille and see how it looks

And here's my guide on how to fit GT seats into an EP91 if anyone's wondering! Clicky!

Ooh I almost forgot, I took the unsightly slats out of the grille and bumper, need to buy some black mesh and fill the gap up now, opinions?

Before

After

Well I've been needing to update this for a while, haven't done much because I can't find a job grrr, but anyway here's the few things I have managed to sort out!

Its been a month or two since I got my Corolla Mani fitted and got a GT strut Brace (£10 hehehe!) and I must say it goes sooo much better! And it sounds damn sweet at high revs for just a universal backbox, I can't stop planting my right foot! lol..The strut brace has made a nice difference too, felt sharper in steering and more stable, especially in faster corners, can't wait to get a Whiteline Rear ARB, but that's a few months off at least!

Here's a pic of the engine bay, and yes it needs a spruce up (and by the way, I sanded down the Strut Brace ready for painting just in case you were wondering what that dodgy colour was haha!)

Also went to pick up a full set of GT Seats from Rhys (southwalestuner) and I lurrrrrve them! ;) really low and comfy!

The only things spoiling the interior now are those crummy door cards lol hoping to retrim them in black soon!

And Idrees sent me this badboy a few weeks ago (GT Spoiler):

I won't be able to do anything for a while now because my tax has run out but gonna either be buying some Import plates, 6000K Bi-Xenons and getting the front windows tinted, or....Save up for longer and get my Spoiler, Mani, Strut Brace and Rocker Cover all sprayed in 6P2 Green, well that's what I'm thinking anyway (Possibly a green/black rising sun combo on the engine, taking inspiration from Phil's ride hope you don't mind lol )...Ohh and I want to get a Glanza plate surround but I'm waiting for one to come up at the right price

Comments welcome peeps!

you guys are all air freshner rookies lol ;)

the ultimate is......

Autosmart - Berry Blast!!

its the mutz nutz!!

comes in a big tin get it off ebay for about £5 lasts ages 1 spray lasts a week and its the nutz!!

Yellow Trees are nice, but Berry Blast ohh my god!! sooo nice!

***NOW ONTO INSTALLING THE GT SEATS!

• Put one of the seats in, and match up the mounting points to the holes as best as possible, bolt in the ones you can (I think the inner front went in the easiest. Then for the more "out-of-place" mounts, put the flathead in the mount hole, and slide the screwdriver into the hole for the bolt, now pry the flathead to line the rails to the hole, and your friend can push against the rail with the top of a hammer, while you loosely screw in the bolt. Follow this method to line up any other mounts that seem too "out" and then tighten them all up! You put in the front seats exactly the same, the only difference is in what you cut off!
  

Rear Seats:

• Remove your old seats, pull out the carpet on the back of the seats (remove plastic clips and put them in the side pocket for safekeeping. This exposes the metal bolts. The seats are 60/40 split, and are held in near the centre of the floor, and on each side, undo all the bolts to remove the centre bracket, and remove the bolts which are located at the rotating pivot on each side. That should do it, you can now remove your stock seats.
  

• Put in the lower one-piece GT seat (where your bum goes lol). I didn't really fix this in position, has anyone else had a go? But it's okay, once the whole rear unit is in, my lower piece doesn't move anyway hehe!
  

• Now you SHOULD have the bolts from the centre bracket from the GT rears, the bolts from the centre of the EP91 are too big. We are going to use the original EP91 centre bracket, so first install the smaller (right side) seat, bolt it to the bracket using the GT bolts into the seat, then for the pivot side, at the very end of the seat, you can use the original EP91 bolt, which is quite large, but it DOES fit. Do the same for the Left (larger) seat, and there you go, simple as that! Then just put the plastic clips and carpet on the back of the units. Now stand back, or rather sit down (no pun intended) in your lovely non-granny spec seats!
  

I hope this guide helps anyone who plans to fit GT seats

comments or pointers welcome!

What you need:

* GT Turbo seats (DUH!) Make sure you get the GT runners too, otherwise this thread is useless lol! Also, if you are buying rear seats, make sure you get the mounting bracket and bolts because some of the EP91 bolts don't fit! The front seats should come with the seatbelt bit attached i.e. the bit where the seatbelt clips into!

* Ratchet set

* Sturdy Flathead screwdriver

* Hammer

* Angle Grinder

* Pliers

* Copper grease (optional, to grease the runners before the seats go in)

Front Seats:

• So first things first, take out your old seats and runners. There should be four bolts holding each seat in e.g. for the driver's side; Right front mount, Right rear mount, Left front mount, Left rear mount (goes into the transmission tunnel thingy)
  

• Now take a look at the holes that are left in the floor, there's 2 smallish holes on the driver's side, next to the front mount boltholes and one smallish hole next to the front mount (closest to the gearbox) on the passenger side. These are the holes for the old seats, the GT pins won't match, so we gotta chop them off!
  

• So now look underneath the GT runners the GT seats, there's 2 locating pins which you have to cut off using the angle grinder (drivers side) and one pin on the passenger side. You just need to cut them so that the base of the mount is flush, and that should be fine. I hope Chanelle doesn't mind me borrowing this picture I forgot to take some when the seats were out lol! This picture shows the driver's left front mount, before having been cut! You might as well grease the runners too so they are nice and smooooth! ;)
  

• There's one more area you have to cut, on the drivers side, the left front mount is a little too wide, and the same with the passenger side's right front mount. There is a little ridge in the floor where this would go, so it doesn't line up with the hole properly, so slice a small section off each of the aforementioned mounts, so the mount is a smooth you-shape like the stock EP91 mounts, hopefully this picture should help!
  

• So all in all, you've cut off- on the drivers side: 2 Pins and sliced a bit off ONE mount on the passenger side: 1 Pin and sliced a bit off ONE mount
  

• That's the easy bit done, and you can do the above on your own pretty easily, this bit gets a bit tricky so it helps to have a friend spare!
  

• Okay so now the mounts are flush, but the holes STILL don't seem to line up, but don't worry, all four points will match up!
  

• I tackled this, by removing the driver's seat, pulling the single (right side) tooth out of the slot it was in, and angle grinding it off. This is absolutely fine, as there are still two "teeth" holding in the other rail, so there's still support for a fixed position, and voila the driver's seat is now fully adjustable
  

Indicators look sick! Keep it up! ;)

Looking good man, good luck with your test whenever it is! ;)

It'll look pretty cool in my opinion, go for it!

The seats are looking good!

Free bump for a pic of that locating pin ;)

I'm planning to buy some GT seats, is there anything I should know before buying them?

this has been asked before mate..do a quick search

Yeah I've been looking around and seeing different sizes so I wasn't sure lol

Thanks v much people!

Hey peeps,

I want to get some import plates made up, but not sure exactly what size to get. I wanted to get the correct size for them to fit nicely into the Glanza front bumper/plate surround if I decide to Glanzify my ride

Any help will be muchos appreciated!

Amjad

I'd LOVE some for the EP91, hate not having a rev counter lol

Clean CRX! I've always liked these!

WOOW! Nice work!

Sorry to Hijack this thread, but does anyone know what size numberplates fit in the plate surround for the Glanza?
