Do you have any idea of how much that would cost?! I think my target is 230bhp.. that should keep me entertained for a while..
-
Yeah you will need to get a new front section to get the full powa from the TD04. not too sure if it's 'bad' to run it with a 2.25 or smaller exhaust for short and or long term though? You got an idea where to get the front section from?

Really like your V man, makes me feel guilty about how dirty mine is! but seriously I hope its nothing more than the seals mate.. i want to see some K POWA!!! -
Cheers mate i love 'em too.. Yeah mate you should have seen me when i found out i was lying under the car swearing for a good 10 minutes! Erm it's a custom mid section with a nur spec back box i think. If the plate was only a tad larger i could have drilled the holes out! So now i either have to buy a new 2.5 inch mid section or weld this plate on.. but i need some monies.. lol

Arch Enemy Afternoon all it's been a while since i have updated, so i thought i would.. So since my last update i have fitted the new wheels which was a rewarding 10 min job. After taking her for cheeky spin i evaluated that everything was fine with the new shoes and thus was well happy.. Until the next morning, i lift-share to work with two other people and their extra weight in the car must have pushed it over the edge.. either way it started to rub bad... every imperfection in the road, roundabout and of course speed bumps were a serious challenge and pain in my arse... So after a bit

Took her for a drive after work today and she feels great.. didnt have the heart to put my foot all the way down.. my confidence has been rocked a little every time i see a blind bend i have my foot hovering over the brake pedal.. Have lots of random items i dont need now.. keep eyes open for a random for sale thread. Cheers for all the comments guys, always nice to talk to people who appreciate her.

Sorry to hear about the crash mate. I've some parts left over that i didnt use when repairing my car like carsh bar, slam panel and other bits and bobs let us know if you need anything.
-
Nothing wrong with the wheels mate, might benefit from a refurb though. I just fancied a different look. Car passed M.O.T.... BACK ON THE ROAD BABY!

Back to Black Over the last month or so i have been desperately trying to get my car fixed. I was reasonably lucky as there wasn't any major structural damage although lots of important brackets and things seemed to have been lost/broken in the crash. After taking the car as far as i could, it looked like this: Ignore the old bonnet 'hidden' under the car! I was hoping that the silver on black would somehow work, alas it didn't so i went through some options, was thinking about carbon wrapping but just decided to get it sprayed black. There were still some jobs to be done, a bit o

Cars looking mint mate.. makes me want a respray on mine.. thanks again for the CAT once all this shizzle is sorted we should have a meet.. (did someone say TD04 vs. K24) -
I am also interested in this. I was looking at the ebay brake discs and pads and it looks all right.. but it's ebay is it worth the risk...
-
At the moment i am in bristol, but back in Kingston most weekends... when my car is working. Is a mini meet on the cards?
-
Right guys, Silver bonnet fitted and we all know how well silver on black looks......... naaart! Anyway slowly getting it sorted will update properly once everything is done etc..

Me and some mates will be heading down that route, getting on M4 at junction 16. Unfortunately i won't be in the glanza so i am having to ride shotgun in my mates S13.. What time you thinking of setting off?
-
Yeah you're right mate after closer inspection i think it may look worse than it actually is... just trying to get all the parts to fit this weekend.. not going to happen.
-
Cheers for the positive comments :rtfm: .....but yes you might be right!

What a massive c-unit Afternoon all, so i was driving home from gym (important to get that info in there for the ladies ) and i managed to ram my car deep up a tractors arse. In all seriousness, i was driving home from gym and i noticed a tractor ahead of me on my side of the road, initially i thought there was enough room for me to overtake safely. At this point I saw a car on the opposite side of the road coming past it, so i hit the brakes they locked up and started to skid. I had three routes to take 1- To the left which lead into a ditch followed by a lamppost 2- To the right which l

Yeah possibly mate, depends how much they are worth

The sparcos are still here, they could benefit from a cheeky refurb though. I might use 'em as winter wheels or sell them, currently undecided! Bucket do you remember me p'ming you ages ago about buying a Glanza? I had to chose between a white one and a black one, do you want to know which one i went for?! I think it was you anyway?!
-
Cheers for the welcome lads got a lot that will be done to her in the next couple of weeks.... i hope. I keep boasting to my mates who own, listed in order of best mate-ness, an S13 (Night hawk), an S15 and a civic type r, that my car will be hitting around 230bhp with the new kit on and will pretty much 'merc them'.....'blud'. .. and i am sure it will. Can't wait. *Mini Mani Update* Have been desperately trying to get my Wepr mani welded as my car is pretty disabled without it. So I set about taking it off last Saturday, after wrestling with it for a couple of hours i managed to free it

Bonjour! My name is Richard and I am from Kingston, Surrey (not Jamaica) but I am currently living in Bristol. I have been on both UKSC and TGTT for quite some time now and thought it was time to say hello and tell you about my Glanza. Warning: This is more of a story than a build thread at the moment, the building will be coming soon Warning mk2: Picture Light First Encounter I remember the first time I came across these wicked little cars. It was in September 2008 and a friend of a friend rolled up in a mean looking Starlet, I think he was pushing around 200BHP on CT9! (Pretty sure he

What are the prices for the TD04 setup? (turbo, decat, mani, external wastegate and oil and water lines) Also would this kit fit round a HDI FMIC?
