Well slap my ass and call me sally! I’ve never seen one of those before! I kinda want one!

What’s a remix bumper look like?

Hahahahaha you’re not naive dude, just learning! A blow over is when you paint the outer bodywork, door shuts, boot shut with the same colour as the car is already. Sometimes a colour change can be done but the inside of the car and engine bay will remain the original colour. I know the feeling mate, I’m having to granny my V around as she needs mapping and I don’t really wanna put my foot down until it’s done! Mother issue I’m having is finding the time to fit the new turbo (old one has blown the seal so I get a smoke screen on boost, which is why it wasn’t mapped before!)

Wasn’t aimed at you NS, was aimed at the guy saying it would have been a shit job, as it all depends on the business. There’s a local place to me who would do a blow over for £1500-£2000 and his work is impeccable. But he’s a one man band so less overheads that a several person workshop etc.

It depends where you live, the amount of paint shops in the local areas, how much work they have etc. 2k is a fair price for a blow over!

Welcome! Lovely colour ‘91 you have! Sounds like you’ve done a fair bit already! May want to start a build thread so we can keep up with all your mods.

Got one in white now, thanks tho dude

Ash! Long time no speak! Can’t believe you’ve still got the GT!! I added you to FB a couple of weeks ago!

If you want something that give good performance but is more refined and quiet. I’d suggest a HKS Silent hi-power exhaust. Had one on my quadlight and absolutely loved it! I currently have a japspeed on my Glanza and hate it! Too yobby for my liking!

Got one! Can admin close or lock this please?

Have loved reading this thread! Loving the possible new colour too!

As above guys, mine has seen better days!

As above guys, mine has seen better days! Edit: should probably mention its for a Glanza lol

Yellows are fine! It’s the racing black that’s hardcore lol

What you’ve already said seems to be a good place to start, and don’t forget that your rack bushes are 20 + years old too! I’d advise a new rack and full poly bush set if you can afford it!

Oooh exciting! What did you go for? Or you gone for plain and normal?

Probably be cheaper and easier to order them from eBay! They just send them out where I’m sure Halfords will give you hassle about the sharp and size of the jap plates! Well they did me!

Awesome Sauce!! Ive had my Glanza about two weeks (fourth Starlet turbo, 2nd Glanza) took her for her first decent run the other night! About an hour and a half cruise. God I forgot how unforgiving coilovers are, I wil deffo be playing with the dampening lol! We need more pics of her! On the road this time!!! safe journey from Denmark dude!

Yep, you’ll find that it’s breaking down under load. Id replace the whole set (if the king leads worn out the rest can’t be too far behind?) should sort your issue out 100%

Need some more info dude, what actually happens when you get to 1/4 throttle? Have you fitted any mods prior to this happening?

Yea should be good! On the parts note, if anyone hears of a Glanza bonnet in 040 white, I’d be grateful!

Awesome! Make sure you are free on the 24/08! Hopefully we can get a little community going! Help each other find parts n stuff!

Orangina is yellow too!!

Call her Gina, as in orangina!!
