    lol, okay.

    now i would explain to both of you, but i doubt very much ud understand.

    I've had cars you can only wank over in your dreams lad! Celica GT4 ST 205,Skyline R33 GTS.Both of Which were comfortably rapid,unlike you i don't have something to prove to anybody! I would respect the car if you had built it,but you didn't,you bought a car that was,in your own words fucked! OOPSY! That £2500 for the rebuild could've been spent on the Glanza you blew £5000 on! ;)

  2. lol like a private little bunch of saddos here! slating me lol oh dear, paul has just posted up some information stating that fact? you need more? before i bought my first glanza i researched for ages and found plenty of different sources saying about std times. all said the same sort of times. 6.9 7.0 or 7.1. never any more than that.

    Don't come on here slagging people off! If you have nothing better to do sod off back to the TGTT bum club! ;) Come back when you have grown up and have the official figures on paper,ie official brochure! Prat!

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For the past years Toyota's smallest car in production, was demonstrating to all other motors' companies how a car should be! Simple, attractive, fast, reliable and all these in a compact hatchback design with a reasonable fuel consumption.

    The Starlet has written in its CV many official Toyota participations to the world rally, along its "'bigger brother" Celica, with really competitive results.

    I own a Toyota Starlet (EP91) Glanza V Turbo, made in June's 1999 (unfortunately last production). Since then it was replaced by Toyota with the same category Yaris (Vitz).

    Unfortunately the GT Turbo versions of Starlet were never so popular in Europe, so the only way to get one was to buy an imported one from Japan.

    The Glanza V hides under its hood a 1331cc DOHC, 4cyl, 4E-FTE engine, accompanied with CT9b turbo. This setup makes the 920Kg beauty output 133bhp, and accelerate from 0 to 100Km/h at the impressive time of 6.8 seconds. This pocket rocket is mechanically flawless like every Toyota.

    Some features coming along with the Starlet â?? Glanzas V are electric windows, electric mirrors, ABS, climate control (optional), semi-bucket seats, 14" alloy wheels, dual mode turbo (0.65bar high/0.45bar low), the beautiful body kit which makes it scream that it is GT version, and much more.

    I own my Glanza since the beginning of 2002, and so far I had not even the slightest problem. It has been my dream-car since 1999 and it still is.

    Maybe its interiors are not that rich as many more modern cars of a higher class, but I'm sure that its gorgeous GT style, and performance will impress everybody.

  4. Yeah mazda ones fit (think it's mx5 ones)but you will need to get some spigot rings made up for them,rare rims can get them made up for you.Should be some on ebay. Lowering springs on standard dampers will soon knacker the dampers.

  5. Think they were £45 each inc delivery,the other one on the car is in good nick it' had been sprayed with paint to smoke the light before i got the car.Think i'll try and get the paint off it instead now.£120 aint a bad price from toyota!

  6. Yey you found it! ;) Nice clean engine bay there,deffo need to lower the car a long way though! :) Theres a mine of info on here,don't be afraid to ask questions,most topics have been covered so the search button is very handy. ;)

  7. Got some more bits to go in to the holes now! Not all that i ordered but most of it,dozy lemon of a breaker yard couldn't count! Check out the massive roll of bubble wrap they used!

    How much bubble wrap do you need!

  8. Don't you hate it when you order stuff they take the cash and only some of it arrives! Ordered a pair of headlights and indicators from a breaker and the dozy lemon only sent one headlight,but managed to send both indicators! They used the most bubble wrap i've ever seen used to pack parts,most be a whole 10ft roll of it!!

  9. :) ;) Jesus! Where'd you go for that quote! Is he a one arm'd chimp in a wheelchair? The suspension swap will take no more than an hour a side,tyres maybe half an hour at most! Tell him to sod off! I doubt even a ferrari dealer would charge that much!
