Hi guys, I'm looking for a decat and gonna have my dumpvalve welded closer to the inlet manifold so I can install my short fmic pipe. Anyway, got a question which I think some of you can answer. Am I good to go 0.9/1.0 bar boost with my current setup? Stock ct9 Blitz fmic with shortroute Air filter relocation kit with hks filter Tuning developments 255 fuel pump Tuning developments fuel pressure regulator Stock injectors Stock ecu Jperformance header Jperformance catback (decat soon) Gofastbits EBC AEM wideband HKS actuator set to 0.5 bar

Let's blow off some dust here! Have to confess that I have been neglecting the Glanza a bit for the past year, no inspiration, few minor setbacks and have been trying to sell the car since, without result. I have been discussing to swap the Glanza for a stunning Lancer EVO4, which is prolly going to happen soon. I killed my turbo the other day, been driving around without an airfilter and dumpvalve for quite a while now, well.. it's not exactly the most wise thing to do, altho the turbo flutter/chatter is kinda awesome. So I bought a replacing ct9 turbo off a totalled Glanza over here on this side of the pond. I replaced the turbo and installed back my long route FMIC piping so I could also install my SARD R2D2 BoV again. Have to say, I did kinda miss the sound of the loud sigh.. ^^ Anyway, I bought an airfilter relocation kit off Conor, including a HKS shroom filter which is on it's way. Also reinstalled my rear interior and catalic/converter and set boost levels back to stock. In my search for parts I kinda got back on here and after walking trough this progress topic I do feel as if I let the car down, so I prolly will clean and polish it soon to make it up hehe. If for whatever reason the Glanza will not be swapped for this evo, I will most likely spend some more money and have it back in mint condition. Just a few recent random pics:

Theminiguru, that is one sweet bay you got there!

That's what I thought too hehe, at least it HAS a brand stamped on it! Think I'll give it a go.

Doesnt open, "item has been removed". Also the link's referring to a v-band and I need a flange type. The xs-power one is a tial knock-off, are there aby 'better' knock-offs around?

It's about €80,- new&delivered Couldn't find any bad reviews on the web just that the XS-P 1 bar spring is almost exactly as the default 0.4 bar spring. Not that I need a 1 bar spring as I set boost trough my EBC. http://xs-power.com/wastegates-3.htm

I used to have a legalis R on my ek4, it was the best sounding exhaust I ever had. Also had Kakimoto and Mugen on the same car, Kaki is way too loud, Mugen was way to stock sounding. The legalis R was just perfect 'loudness' with a great tone!

I'd kill to get my hands on a silent exhaust system which looks like it's going to roar as hell! I currently have a Japspeed/Jperformance catback which isn't really silent.

Hey guys, I can get my hand on a xs power wastegate to complete my td04 setup. Now it is a cheap brand and I've read about their turbos failing and manifolds cracking but I'm wondering if any of you have experience running these wastegates. They're tial knockoffs and I do know that a genuine tial spring fits the xs power wg. I'm not aiming high power so .6 or .7 bar (180 - 200bhp?) should do the trick for me. Thanks in advance, Jurriën

Nope, I can't.. wish I could tho.

Also there will be more cars and all of them will be like the current premium ones, so full interiour, visible damage. More tracks, I believe it was 5 or 6 completely new tracks and about 19 more variations from the existing tracks. One of the new ones will be Santa Pod. Also more options to personalize your cars and a lot more tuning options, hopefully able to do engine swaps, would be great to have a k20 eg.

Wow geez alot of opinions which are miles away from eachother haha. Thanks for the awesome replies guys. I like my glanza but the r32 is one of my favs, I have driven one before but that one was quite modded, slammed so that wasnt a good example as a daily drive, but it did feel quite awesome. But as I said, that particular one had about 350bhp which is about 120 horses more than this fairly stock one. I don't like the r33's looks and a 34 is very rare in the Netherlands, let alone find one for sale. Importing another car is no option as It's just going to be too expensive. I'm no speedfreak, I just love jdm vehicles and am really charmed by the r32 so even the 'lesser' gts-t would be fit for me. I'm just wondering if it will be a just as fun drive as the glanza is, as said above light weight hatches with a fair amount of power are awesome and I haven't had any experience with different layout powertrain vehicles before. Anyway, ill have to check insurance and fuel consumption and make some calculations. Sourcing parts is no problem and comparable to my glanza. There are quite a few skylines here in Holland. Thanks again for the comments! Feel free to continue any discussion, we're all in the offtopic section anyway XD.

'Mantil' Currently doing gt5 only, hosting a competition with friends of mine.

From what I've heard is that Sony will launch the ps4 with a complete different racegame; Drive Club. It's from the creators of motorstorm. The reason why gt6 will be releases for the ps4 later is because they are afraid it will ruin the ps4's launch. Driveclub is based on online social gaming which allowes friends to team up and be the best club by beating other clubs. It looks extremely realistic but I think it will not simulate car characteristics as gt6 do. But these are just my thoughts.

Seat boys be like, I'll have anything for breakfast. It has 20 valves and a turbo you know...
