Finally Got Me A Glanza. Yey!
thunderpants replied to thunderpants's topic in EP91 Glanza Progress Blogs
and thats it with just a catback back then. cant wait to get her back on the rr see what shes making now ;) gunna be some surprise. because i intend to keep it completley standard bodywork wise. the only way that youll tell is the front mount and the ap racing brakes behind the wheels and the slightly squat stance ... wee while off yet though. -

haha that comment made my day bud. Just adding the finishing touches to the suspension/brakes list atm because theres no point building a fast glanza if it dont go round a corner and stop quickly for all the "wildlife" around these parts. -

thunderpants replied to thunderpants's topic in EP91 Glanza Progress Blogs
sacrilige. nah. i just think the 1998 lights look too like the lights that some peeps put on their say clio,corsa etc...... bad for it round here and unfortunatley they arent tastefully modfied, its a pritt stick and drive through halfords job so i was like no way will my car be seen in the same light ever ever ever. and the amber lights at the front add another dimension instead of one big headlight. -

the guy that imported it for me is doing the paperwork. it should be registered and on the road by friday. fingers crossed. fitted the blitz intercooler tonight. it is masssive !!!! more pictures to come when i spray my rocker cover. -
very nice. a front lip would sort the front end though. def white mirrors and get rid of the stickers. still awesome looking though.

Seriously though. the wheels are an off white slightly cream colour. look really well against the white. Wouldn't change them unless a nice set of work emocion crs in white come up for sale . -

After years of looking through this forum and tgtt.com i have finally got myself a glanza. Over the next coming days,months,years i plan to build a well rounded example. Spec on arrival. 1999 Glanza, white with 51000 miles on the clock. 45mm jdm lowering springs (unsure of make) 5zigen miracle fireball cat back exhaust HKS turbo timer Speedline wheels Sub box with two subs in rear..... swiftly taken out as this goes against my plans. Pictures taken on the night I finally had it in my possession. Still with funky jap auction writing..... Still had the dirty muck on it from shipping

that is your catalytic convertor. the two wires are lambda sensor and exhaust temp sensor.
