Small Update Been shopping for some bits over the last couple of days Managed to pic up the following: -Brand new set of Rota Track R 15x7 ET40 so a nice simple fit for a Starlet...NO RUBBING lol -New Blue D1 Spec Wheels nuts (for the new shiney wheels) -Carbon scoop for the bonnet (why not) -Racespec rocker cover with An fittings and braided lines (think the existing cover may be the cause of the oil leek) -Alloy catch can with An fitting (kind of a must with the racespec cover) -Jam Plug in and play ecu (For Performance the car has enough mods to warrant some increased engine management capabilities, will get an electronic boost controller soon and probably run her at 0.9 bar) - HKS Bov (its goes pttshhh) More pics to follow as parts arrive- cheeers

Hey, Thought id best start another one of these My name is Ian and a few of you will remember i was on the forum years ago when i had my first Glanza. I sold that so i could fund another project but to be honest i still missed my old V. Soooo needed a new daily and decided it was time to come back to the starlet scene. Ive managed to pick up a tatty looking Glanza. Its all superficial stuff however and nothing i cant put right. She is spotless underneath, nice and straight with no sign of accident damage, mechanically spot on and also has a few nice bits on her My plans are to get her running as sweet as possible with good usable power. Im also going to restore her back to a thing of beauty in hopefully near showroom condition. It wont happen over night but by the end of it i should have a car to be proud of. For those of you that are interested this was my old Vee - http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/45698-toshs-glanza-v/ And a few pics of its successor- And her Spec is as follows- -Fresh rebuilt standard 4efte -Still running stock engine management -Ct9 turbo -Zisco Externally gated ramhorn Manifold -TurboSmart 38mm wastegate -Stock Suspension with lowered Springs -Rota Grid Drifts -One piece Custom Exhaust -Zisco Decat -HDI FMIC -Brand new OEM Headlights and clear indicator lenses -Uprated Magnecore ignition leads -Walbro Fuel pump -Rear OEM Strut bar -Carbon Kevlar Corbeau Pro-series Bucket seat -Carbon Kevlar Corbeau revolution Bucket seat -2x Genuine 4 point Takata harnesses -Stripped out interiour -OEM front optional lip -Cruise wide front fenders -OMP Snap Off Stearing wheel -Exedy Paddle Clutch -Shitty BOV -Trd short Shifter First step is to get her running sweetly(leaking oil from somewhere) and make the most out of her current setup. Im going to strip and repaint the interior. Carbon Kevlar seats will be coming out (if anyone's interested give me a shout) and putting the full Glanza interior back in. I need to get her rolling on wheels that actually fit as the grid drifts are scraping like HELL! Once thats done i will then be looking at the body work. Plan on getting an OEM rear lip and ducktail for the back, maybe a 98 spec front (not yet decided) 98 spec rear lights, a few wee finishing touches and then a full respray in original colour Hope you all approve and bring on the updates!!!! cheers

I take it you drive a prius then mate?

Cheers mate Yeah not bad, will be a nice wee project again! Pm'd you

Thanks mate I will hold you to that when the time comes!

Still available?

I hated it :/ im sure the newer ones are better but i thought it was awful!

Cheers mate It was just a bug eye wrx... winter mobile lol

Cheers She doesnt look too bad in the pics but up close she is no where near the standard of my old one. Plus im a perfectionist lol. Nope just wide wheels... too wide infact. Not ideal for a starlet imo even tho they look the part. So they will be coming off for something else soon. If anyones interested in them give me a shout

Booo lol. £50 to my door and you have got a deal my sir

Yip! just pull the vacuum to the DV so it wont actuate

BOOOOOOM!!!!! I got another Starlet Its the same as my old one in 1ao silver! Not a tidy example but i will get her sorted out soon . Went for this one as the guy would swap for my impreza so didnt have the hastle of selling it. Would have prefered a cleaner one to start with but tbf it has a couple of nice bits on it and it will make it all the more satisfying when im done and she is mint. Anywho spec- -Fresh rebuilt standard 4efte -Still running stock engine management -Ct9 turbo -Zisco Externally gated ramhorn Manifold -TurboSmart 38mm wastegate -Stock Suspension with lowered Springs -Rota Grid Drifts -One piece Custom Exhaust -Zisco Decat -HDI FMIC -Uprated ignition leads -Rear OEM Strut bar -2x Carbon Kevlar Corbeou Buckets -2x Genuine 4 point Takata harnesses -Stripped out interiour -OEM front optional lip -Cruise wide front fenders -OMP Snap Off Stearing wheel -Exedy Paddle Clutch -Shitty BOV -Trd short Shifter These are all the pics i have just now (will try get more asap cheeeeeeers!!

How much for the carbon scoop and race spec cover minus the catch can if i take them both??

cheers dude Cheers mate Thanks mate Yeah i loved my old Starlet. Obviously a totally diferent car to the Rx-7 so they are not really comparable, but my Glanza was as fun thats for sure

I will take brace and cooling pannel if still available

If you can deliver i might be interested in these mate

Yeah i know mate I was gutted when i heard. The boy i sold it too practicaly destroyed her anyways. And yeah i will try get a build thread up when i get a minute. Cheeers mate Hopefully back with a veeee very soon

Im doing well mate thanks, hows yourself? see you managed to get yourself a Starlet finally? lol good choice too i must say

Well hello there folks!!!! Some of you may remember me I was on here a good few years ago when i had my weee glanza Sold it for a rx-7 which im still very much in love with but i need a new daily and have been thinking of getting another V. So if anyone can point me in the direction of a nice one... not looking for anything too fancy as it will be a daily. Max budget of £3000 or i have a Impreza to swap if that floats anyones boat. Anywho glad to be back and hopefully in another Starlet soooooon If you still cant remember me then you might remember my old car: And the Fd the she was sold so i could get : And 3 years later and many many ££££££ later how she looks now CHHHHHEEEEEEEERRRRRS
