^^^^^ They are for 18+ though. They are very good as well. @ Minxy - I see what you mean about n/a's being wannabe's as i sort have a similar opinion. Why make a car something that it isn't. But then you look at some of the examples of Glanza body conversions on here and the effort that goes into them is amazing. Look at Idrees' and there is a white one on here as well but i have forgot his username. Loads said i should have bought a Glanza and i even had doubts during the process but i wanted to be different and do the swap. The downside is the higher insurance than a Glanza V would be but

Yeah i know him. He had just passed his test a few days before getting the insurance. Import car, not the greatest of postcodes as Manchester is a hotspot for car theft at the moment, and being 17 all contributed to it being 5K. Personally i wouldn't have paid it but if you want something so badly and you have the money then you would. Everyone around Craig said he should get a different car but it's the car he wants and no one was going to change his mind and why should he if it is what he wants? Believe me i wish i had a Glanza S as my first car. I paid over £1400 in my first year

Hi all, Here is a list i created when i was doing my n/a to 4efte swap. It will help all you guys that are planning to do your swaps in the near future. If there is any thing that needs adding please let me know . My personal most important thing was a decent set of tools. The last thing you want to happen is to have to get some to take you tool shopping halfway through because you haven't got something. Close second was telephone numbers. Helped me massively. You will need: Engine lift A good trolley jack Axle stands Lots of cardboard to lie on or a car creeper Engine Oil (if it hasn't al

@ Joey - Mint Mine went from good, to crap and to good again. It started good on Friday as my new mani gaskets had come but it just went downhill from there. I was fitting the gaskets and thought the rocker cover was looking a bit rough so i took it off for a fresh coat of paint. In doing so i snapped the PCV on the top of it. I thought super glue would fix it but it didn't. Plumes of smoke were coming rom the exhaust. They were like clouds and they covered my entire street. No joke it was like fog. So i pulled the PCV off to get a new one but i was pissed off and i pulled the whole thing o

To be honest it would be the first thing i would think of. Well im glad your ok anyway . Asad - Get the springs they are a nice drop. Suits the car really well Bourkey
-
Well im glad your still alive. I like the way you or someone else has handled the most important part of the crash and got a picture straight away . I say get another one and start a clean slate bud. Only thing i can thik of by looking at the pictures is that you were caught on some leaves. Deadly little things. You might aswell be driving on ice really. Bourkey

Last time this happened to me, and the only time, it was the actuator coming off the wastegate. If it's open it obviously won boost like mind did. Bourkey -
Im a tit. I should have worked through the night to fix my car up. It was nearly ready in time then a major thing went wrong. Oh well. Maybe next time. Mint pictures though i wish i was there!!!! Bourkey

For all those who work with rude customers!

I would sell everything i own to see that happen. Bourkey -
As Phil said. You don't need the rear disks just because you are doing the swap. Save your pennies for the swap then sort them out afterwards if you really want them. The back brakes do about 10-15% of the braking so disks or drums it doesn't really matter unless your taking it on a track of course. Im still running drums on mine and unless a GT or a Glanza comes into the local scrappy then im not bothering. Make sure you have good stoppers up front though . Bourkey

Not really how i wanted to start the day
Bourkey replied to Jonnyrad's topic in EP80/EP82 Progress Blogs
@ Phil - It did make a mess Phil. Look at the top pictures of it on the car and you can see it had the plastic with a glowing GT Badge but the picture just there has a different one. Shame as the glowing GT boots are pretty rare. At least it's getting sorted bud. And the strut brace idea seems a fitting punishment for the crime. Bourkey -

Holy hell that is bad!!!! If i saw my car like that i think i would cry. I hope the person or people who did this get whats coming to them. Bourkey -
Yes end of. When you take out insurance it asks you what you are using the car for. If you have an accident when using it for business use and your insurance find out, which they usually will, you might as well drive uninsured ;). Bourkey
