Sefton-EP91

Managed to get some good photos of my glanza today!! I'll leave these in here...

I'll whip one of the wheels off later and see, I'm sure they do have clearance cavities but not 100% sure! Thanks for the comments guys much appreciated

Thanks for the kind words Matt I've got 16" wheels on already and I'm buying some 20mm h&r hubcentric spacers so I should have enough clearance! I'll bare it all in mind though!

I'll keep you in mind mate

I'm having abit of a blonde moment, if I fit 20mm hubcentric spacers to my car, remembering that the starlet uses studs. Surly the original studs that the spacer secures to are going to patrude the spacer? Therefore making contact with my wheel? I hope I've typed that so everyone can understand! Surely you dont have to use smaller studs to secure the spacer so it doesn't hit the wheel on installation? Thanks for all comments in advance!!

Updates seem to go off track a little for a second.. I was suffering with really bad brake fade and couldn't wait any longer for some k-sports! So, Last month I managed to pick up a WMS 4pot brake kit with ferodo ds2500 pads, 277mm discs and braided brake lines from uzzy, some small problems to start off with e.g. Bleed nipples were all rounded, small scuff on one of the calipers! So I ordered a new set of bleed nipples, the day they arrived I set at fitting them onto my car! Not much of a photo but you get the idea! I'm still not 100% whether these will be staying as I'm more sided towards a set of k-sports! I think when funds allow I'll get some k-sports!

I managed to get the track r's fitted on Thursday and managed to give the glanza a wash, Polish and wax! This is the best picture i got so ... I'm happy with how it looks but want to maybe space the the front 10-15mm and the rears 15-20mm. Ideally want to bring the wheels flush with the arches I've also realised a knocking noise coming from the front end of the car which looks as if it could be the rear engine mount, so I'm going to replace all the bushes in due course! Engine mounts Arb bushes Wishbone bushes (front and rear) Ball joints Tie rods Track rod ends Drop links (may invest in a white line arb for the whole kit) More updates soon!

Been chatting to Jezza yesterday thanks for the comments!

Thanks for all the comments guys they are very much appreciated! I'm going to start with my engine mounts and bottom arm bushes then look into a white line ARB. Then the rear beam bushes later on. I never realised how much of a costly job it is. My friend has an eg civic with a k20 swap and he has done a full rebush on it, I must say it feels so tight! Not sloppy! That's how I want my car!

Just curious, has anyone done a complete rebush on there glanza? Just recently It's starting to feel like my car has loosened up, if you get what I mean. It just started knocking from the rear engine mount but I'm thinking If this has gone, the others can't be far behind it! I was going to do a complete rebush but what would need to be done to actually feel any benefits from it? If someone could list the bushes needed it would be much appreciated thanks in advance!

My rear engine mount has decided to collapse causing a horrible bang under acceleration so I'm in need of some engine mounts, they are for an ep91 glanza and looking for a full set! Not interested in TRD or standard mounts. Must be polybush! Please PM with what you have or comment below! thanks

Small update ... As a few of you may have seen I have sold my Rota GT3's to make space for something else, i got a set of rota track r's. They are very simalar to the gt3 but more spokes and in my opinion the better looking wheel. I paid a very good price for the track r's hence why I brought them but they needed abit of work to the polished lip as they were starting to corrode under the lacquer. I decided i was going to do the work myself, rather than pay someone else! They were all in the same condition so all required work. After many hours of stripping the lacquer back (ROTA USE ALOT OF LACQUER) using nothing but nitromors and sand paper and a lot of effort, starting at 60 and working my way through, 60, 100, 150, 600, 800, 1200, 2000 grit. I finished all 4 wheels and now they all look like this ... I will be fitting them to the glanza tomorrow or Thursday so I'll post pictures once fitted!

Glad to see you sticking with it mate! Great progress so far look forward to seeing more!

SOLD

I'll do this for the polishing the lacquer requires abit more thorough pushing in certain places which is hard when the wheel is moving lol thanks for the tip though much appreciated!

Got some nitromors in the end cut my time down from 4.5hrs per wheel to 40mins 2 more too do then I'll be fitting them!

Bump

Not 200, that's to low mate!

Bump

Thought this might be the case, I'll get some and see how it goes thanks morgey!

As above, it's very hard work using my hands with wet and dry. Taken me 2.5 hours to do half a wheel Thanks for all suggestions
