Fairly straight forward job tbf! Aslong as you have some patience and an idea of how they work its really easy! The only issue i had with a set, is where the cage part with the spring and a flat bit on wouldnt go together. The cage was damaged somehow so i had to use one from another caliper lol

Nice progress dude! Think i paid £7 per clip from toyota a while ago

Definitely glued up, think the boot rubber needs pulling up.

Hasnt the number plate area been cut out?

If you have the loom adapter to put a headunit in, the wires are normally labelled so it makes it easy to know whats what.

Sefton-EP91’s 98 Spec Forged Glanza
BMX-RIG replied to Sefton-EP91's topic in EP91 Glanza Progress Blogs
What an annoying set back! All good progress though. Still got a few months until the weather picks up! -
Have a set of hinges here. I always put it down to a lack of grease which causes wear over time, or an incorrectly fitted door.

Uniroyal rainexpert 3 175/65/14’s. Very affordable and on the daily they are awesome.

To continue, just a few from more shows. Mot day I had started having exhaust issues a few months back when i removed the front section. I sorted the blowing flange in the tunnel, but later ran into a more serious issue. The back box decided to disconnect itself from the centre section. Not a problem, new nuts, bolts and a flange and it will be good. However as youll see from the photos it will need a repair out of my capabilities. the flange has kinda warped. At this point it was either, repair, replace or get one made. George had his old system available so opted to change for a little while. A kakimoto system in good condition. All cleaned up and ready to be fitted, Final product, it was always nick named big shiney... lol Downside is that its gone from 3inch down to 2.5. Is allot quieter than the blitz one. Which has its advantages and disadvantages. Trd tank guard holding up ok... I also picked up a new optional item for the car. That pritty much brings it up to date. Various things in the pipeline at the minute and the car is currently looking the worst its ever looked

Thanks Rob Kind words!

Anyone with an uk spec car will know all about these. Not sure why the jdm spec stuff never got them? Wings next in for paint. I would do it all at once but with the available space and time frames its just not possible. Drivers wing had some poor repairs previously to be rectified. Wings ready for primer. Into the oven. Etch Primer. 2k primed, ready to be rubbed out. Was then rubbed out and painted... Back out the oven, polished and ready to fit back up. Had new arch liners and all new clips. Surprisingly managed to buy all new clips off ebay for under £10. Did and oil change while the bumper was off as it was convenient. Also re-blacked the lower front panel. i dont get too involved with cleaning in the areas where you cant see as allot of it is waxoyl which i would rather leave on. However i did feel the need to spruce up the relocation kit. All back together... Show on the sunday. Local country fair which has a large turnout. Again, tagging on with an Ford RS group lol. Wheels were next. If you look closely in some photos, the fronts always looked a dingey washed out white. Not sure whether it was brake dust over the years or the top coat paint had faded or taken abuse from heat cycles. Also the V in EVO was non existent. Back on the trusty speedlines it was off to another local show. Later that evening. Week later the wheels wereback from their refurb. New stickers sorted out. Otherwise they might pass as a rota wheel. Didnt enjoy putting the stickers on however. Speedlines off, Regas on.. Car was prepared for simply Jap at Beaulieu. Went with a couple of evos and a Glanza. Very wet day, altho hats off to those who still made the effort as there was still a fair few cars. However most of the day was spent in the museum staying dry.

Item: Blitz Cast CT9 Decat Cast CT9 decat, arguably one of THE best ct9 decats available. Is currently heat wrapped but can be unwrapped for any potential buyer. I have included photos before and after. Blitz decats can also be fitted with the original heatsheilds that are fitted as standard to the standard cat. Condition: Used Price: £130ono or £150ish posted depending on location. Pictures: Collection available from Milton Keynes or Kimbolton.

Thanks By allot of the paperwork included with the car i get the impression it was optioned up to the hill. Suprisingly there is actually abit of wear on the brake pedal cover lol
-
Well spotted, luckily they came with the car! Makes a change to included to footrest too. Think the Japanese person that owned it before me was big on his TRD parts.

Continuing on for the last post, ill keep this one short and sweet until later. Tidied up the feet on the recaro rails. Small lack of photos but im sure youll get the general idea. It was only really the foot photographed that needed doing as the others have caps. Few photos after cleaning before a show at the cotswold wildlife park in oxford. Typically a Ford show, but due to my connections within a group within the rsoc I managed to sort out our own Jap stand Next up, Japfest 2! Next up, filling some blanks... Coin holder Some more later on.

Cheers dude, comments like this make me glad ive stuck with it. I have a late spec bumper for my Reflet sat upstairs at work and have always thought about getting a splitter for it and changing over. But maybe ill stay put

Sorted! Thank you!

1st of June i think for 2019. I like the way you can be parked right next to the track so you can always see whats going on.
