  1. I think it was 60mm, I had to hammer it a bit to make it fit, but now it's perfect. Yeah that pic is when the exhaust was brand new. Nor as shiney anymore. ;) I think you should email to fujitsubo about the ring or try asking from any sports exhaust dealer. It's a bit hard for me to take the measurements as I don't have a garage near me right now, my parrents garage is a bit too far to get there to take the measurements. Sorry. :/ I can try to remember to measure it when I visit them next time.
  2. Well the part I replaced looks like this There's a fixed metal part sticking out somewhere near the gearbox, where this thing attaches the exhaust. Found a pic where you can see the original fixing just after installing the exhaust.
  3. Brides still sitting in the garage. If anyone has or knows someone who has rails for them and would be willing to sell them, I'm interested!
  4. BUMP Still wanted, especially one for drivers side
  5. Tried to lower the car more yesterday, but the left front coilie seems to be stuck, so I can't adjust the lenght of the coilover! I understand that adjusting the lower sping plate doesn't affect on the ride height at all, so don't know what to do. We tried everything from brake cleaner to hammering it to get it loose, but no. All the other 3 coilies were fine. Any hints how to loosen it up? Oh yeah, and also changed the front fixing for the fujitsubo (attaches the exhaust to engine to prevent it from yanking the cat, turbo and manifold as it doesn't have the flex part), as the old one was be
  6. Both sides needed for Bride Brix seats. I live in finland, so will of course pay the shipping.
  7. Cheers mate! I was lucky to find these straight from Finland, as these are quite rare. Heard they came out from a supra and rx7. Cleaned them up on sunday and now they look even better, and they feel really good to sit in! Also took the drivers seat out to see if the original seat rails could easily be modified to fit, but I tell you it's not easy! Would have to tear the original seat apart to remove the rails and it really is not a straight swap, so maybe I'll just hunt for bride rails or end up making them myself. Thanks alot, like it so much myself too. Funny how driving a pocket rocke
  8. Ok, finally something new. Got them today, gonna have to sort out the rails for these. Does anyone have any tips and tricks how to make them fit easily?
  9. I Tried contacting nomad racing with email twice, they still haven't replied. How was it with you, everything went fine? I tried to ask the p&p to finland. They have similar product at TM-developments, but it's 10£ more expensive! How do you like those prosport gauges?
  10. Ok, finally got something done. Removed the boost restriction this saturday. Took about 2 min and you really can feel the difference. Also found out that my glanza revs to 8000rpm! I understand that the factory rev limiter is normally around 7500rpm, am i right?
  11. It's out! Drove it yesterday to my parrent's garage, was smiling for the whole 5 hour driving. Missed it so much!
  12. Haha, found a pic of my glanza before throwing the cuscos in. Damn that's high!
  13. Could get my hands on these: The size is 16x7.5". What do you think would it be worth trying? The price is a bargain and the condition should be good! I was thinking of painting the lip glossy white and the center matte black. Oh yeah and wrap them with 195/40 Falkens. EDIT: So the paint should looks something like this, only the centers matte:
  14. Hi! I was wondering if it's possible to swap this: into this: And will it work just like that or is there some other differences inside the dash I should know about? Thanks!
  15. Cheers fellas! I personally like to keep it simple. Less is more and so on... ;) Went to see my baby today. It's good to give it a run in every few months. Took this short video of the exhaust. Fujitsubo roar I'm waiting for the summer SO much!
  16. The new bonnet looks good! Much cleaner than the current one. ;) I like it simple!
  17. Also tried the same from different angle to see how near the ground the muffler will go.
  18. Tried again the next summers ride height with photoshop. I guess that's about 4cm lower than it is now. I'm planning to take the cuscos out and adjust the whole suspension again from scratch. Interested in seeing will the tyres scrape when lowered more.
  19. Yeah, maybe! At least front defo needs something! Been thinking of making some sort of custom front lip, but OEM frontlip could be great too. Too bad it's hard to find Toyota OEM plastic ones anywhere! I'd like it better than the replica fiberglass one.
  20. Exhaus is a spot on! Not too loud at all. It has a very smooth and nice low tone. I really can recommend power getter to anyone, if you can find one for a reasonable price!
  21. Couldn't resist anymore so had to play with photoshop again. I've been checking where to find 16x8" ET20 grid drifts, but seems they all are ET10! I know they exist with ET20, but seems rare. :/
  22. Cheers Mac! Just noticed that in the first photoshopped pic the wheels are Rota GTR's and the smallest size they come is 17"...Too bad. Actually I like more that 5 spoke look than 6 spoke in the Grids... I just changed all the four cv boots this summer, so I really know how it's done. Didn't enjoy it though! Luckily these glanzas are quite simple to work with, so if there are some downsides comming with cool wheels, maybe I'll just have to bear it. I guess that in 7" width there shouldn't be too much problems in the front? I'd just like to be able to fit 7 and 8" rims on before ordering an
