t-j-wilson Glanza V

WOW, i don't have enough time for all this!! ;)

Went for the Toyo Proxes T1R's in the end.

Only ordered Monday evening and they turnt up this morning. ;).

I kinda wish i got 45's but Camskill were out of stock, and tbh i have 50's atm and they don't look too bad

Thanks for all the opinions though, Tobie.

Okk sweet, only leaves the boost gauge to check then ;)

Why are all the numbers exactly the same on both? Or does every 4EFTE ECU have the exact same numberss?

I'll have a look on the weekend for any other wires, but from what i remember it looks like theres no added... :S

Hey guys,

Still haven't figured this one out yet, although i haven't tried another gauge yet.. I will do, just haven't had time and the car's of thee road as it has no MOT so want to sort this while i can. The only other thing i could think of apart from that was an anftermarket ECU.

I was looking through the classifides section, and saw LukeEp had a Blitz access ECU for sale. I can kind of remember it looking very similar to mine, ( although im not sure what standard 'should' look like). So i went and grabbed a picture off mine to compare with his :

LukeEp hope you don't mind me using your picture?

Lukes BLITZ ACCESS ECU

My ECU

If you look closely all the numbers are the same on the two... The only thing mine doesnt have is the sticker on the right and the small Blitz Label in the middle... Are these numbers the same on every EP91 ECU (Aftermarket and Standard)??? OR have i got myself one?

I have no ideaaaa. Pleasee help

Tobie

Camskill or TMD Kit?? :S

I'm sure if its advertised it will come in both kitss..

I don't really want to go bigger, my car will look like it has monster truck tyres haha.

Think i'm gonna order up the Toyos tomorrow . Cheers mate.

What would you say about going for the 45/15's? (F1's).

The toyo's seem to be getting good reviews at the moo...

I'll let this run on till tomorrow to see if anyone else has any opinions, and order up tomorrow... But thanks alot for your replys already!

Hey, i need a set of 4 new tyres, my cars M.O.T is up and i need get a whole set before i put it in.

I've found a set of Yokohama Parada Spec II's on Ebay - £189.98 delivered.

or

Toyo Proxes T1 R's off camskill - £153.76 delivered.

Both choices are in 195/50/15's

What would you go for, i've heard both good and bad about the proxes...?

Tobie

Thanks for the comments guys. I got my new leads through from CJperformance, but gonna wait to fit till i get a front mount intercooler as then you'll actually be able to see them!

Looking to get an intercooler off Ebay, looking to pay up £250ish for one. Is there any on there anyone reccomends to get?

Thanks alot, Tobie

Maybe if i get my new job. Going for a weeks trial in June, so hopefully . ( At the bodyshop that i was telling you about ).

It's pretty much had half done already haha.

Ollie - No-where neare as clean as i would like it to bee, but it's slowly getting there. But cheers buddy! ( I want it as clean as yours )

Thanks for the comments guys:). And yes Hazza he is extremely gay. You made him xxx

Hey everyone, i'm Tobie from Woking, Surrey.

I bought my 1998 Glanza V in October 2010. The car was pretty standard when i bought it from a guy in Milton Keynes for (I think) £2750. Unfortunatly for him he never got to drive it as he was getting insurance quotes of aroun £5000 :S.

It was imported to the UK in July 2009, i\'m the second UK owner.

I joined UKSC and tgtt and had a good look around the forums about the ep91\'s for general info etc before i started with the modding.

Here\'s how she was when i got her.

Enough of the Chat, here\'s my progress

First thing was removing the hi/lo boost restriction. What difference that made in 1st & 2nd gears, and wiring in the LED\'s on my boost gauge as this wasn\'t done.

5/02/2011 - Replaced drivers door handle as it snapped off with the cold weather - £7from member on tgtt.

17/02/2011 - I decided on a wheel colour change as the original wheels (advan in factory red) were going a bit pinky in colour. I decided to get them refurbed in Subaru WRX Blue. Along with a full body mop - £150

19/02/2011 - Bought a service kit off TMdevelopments. NGK Iridium (heat 7) plugs, Oil change, and new oil filter. Was an absoulte bitch replacing the oil filter with A/C!! :@ - £63.

12/03/2011 - After the agro with the service and all the A/C crap being in the way, i decided to remove it. Got new N/A power steering belt from TMDevelopents - £9.50.

Surprised with the weight of all this !

12/03/2011 - Restored my glazed headlights as they were looking a bit dull and horrid. Bought a mixure of wet&dry paper from Ebay, and using Socks guide restored them back to former glory. - £4.39

16-17/04/2011 - Spent my weekend fitting my brand new Mild steel Manifold, and downpipe from Zisco Performance. Not 100% happy as i have a small leak from the block to mani and took about 4weeks to arrive! Fitted all new gaskets from Enzo and TMD. When i get a free weekend i\'ll have it all off and machined to make sure it\'s smooth and not warped. Also relocated my air filter to behind the grill, and got my self a halfrauds air filter as mine was F**KD. Whilst i had the turbo off i checked if everything was ok with it, but found a minute crack. I decided to port the wastegate anyhow!

22/04/2011 - Got my Self and adjustable HKS Actuator off of a member on here, no pics of this, im sorry .

11/05/2011 - I was painting my front calipers, had the front end jacked up, stupidly let the handbrake off to bleed the brakes and my car fell off the jacks and ended up on my garage wall . With no wheels on or anything. I WAS GUTTED. It happened the day off Ace Cafe meet, and 1Week befoe Japfest!

The damage

The Fix

Got the car into my friends bodyshop. Can\'t fault them at all. They pushed my car ahead of all there other work, just so i had it back for Japfest. It took them in total 3 days to get it back to me . I had N/S Wing, door, skirt, quarter, and front splitter done.

And a few random pics -

And an old one i really like!

* Car is running 0.8 bar, standard CT9*

Thats all for now guys, sorry it\'s been a bit long and boring, but i\'ll try and update as i go from now on . Hope you enjoy/like. All feedback welcome .

LOTS OF FUTURE PLANS TOO, but im going to bed.....

Tobie

Looking forward to seeing pics of this after the coilovers go on . Should look smart!

So if i kept it internally gated, woud i get away with using my manifold (Only had it a month or so, don't wanna change already) . Then just grab a tdo4 downpipe and jobs a gooden? Along with needing all the lines, mappable ECU etc...?

Just read through this, was wondering if i could use my ct9 Zisco manifold, and use a tdo4 adapting plate and get myself a tdo4? Is this possible? Are the td04's externally gated, if so would i need to modify the manifold for exeternal wastegate or can i just get a new downpipe and have it coming off there?

I have no mappable ECU of anything like that at the moment. Just looking for options for the future

Thanks alot. Tobie

On a serious note, let's keeep this rolling....

Yeahh it's soo strangee... I'll do what you suggested and try another gauge and see what that reads.

Cheeers for the reply mate.

Anybody?

Hey guys, i'm running standard ct9, HKS Actuator, with zisco manifold and downpipe, with relocated air filter and ported wastegate and few other bits not really worth mentioning as i don't think it will affect this...

I've set the Actuator to 0.8bar, as i didn't want to go above as i 'knew' i'd hit fuel cut as this happens at 0.82 or soo...? When i hold high revs i get boost creep bringing the boost to around 0.9-0.95, yet i don't hit fuel cut. I've checked the ECU and its the standard 4efte ECU, checked around for FCD and can't find anything, yet i don't hit fuel cut??

The only thing i can think of is my boost gauge being wrong, is this likely? If not is there anything anyone else suggests whats up? I'm happy it doesn't hit FC, however don't really want to be going over 0.8..

Thanks alot, Tobie

Take them with you mate There's no chance of selling them if you don't take them .

I need to know the deffinate answer to this tooo...?
