nice one, im a romford boy myself ^^
what colour was your glanza, i dont recal ever seeing one in romo
i was always going round romford though nicely as i live next to a police station, not the best idea! where about in rom are you? yeh i had a silver glanza white wheels, lowered and a hks fuel rail lol.
yes i deff need lowering, but i want to get a mani and exhaust first to see how much i can lower it by as i have a very akward drive the wheels do set it off, i need to get toyota centre caps as they are saying mazda, which confuses people even more. though i some black rota's I've seen!
-
if driven right those 20 valvers are the tits mate. that looks lush aswell.
where in essex are you matey?
dont worry all 20v's get used daily! and loves it! cheers im from romford mate.
-
Very nice mate how does it compare to the V?
well, you dont get a sudden burst of power like in the V, little less exciting. im missing turbo alot, but then again i feel abit older driving this car around. plus i like the fact no one knows what it is. but over all i miss my V alot!
-
Were there not part numbers on the packaging?
Were they easy to fit by the way?
you keeping your car now??
interested in these filters also. is the big box easy to take off? i had a look and the allen key on the left and right are very hard to get to
when you say surge tamk, do u mean the bottom of the black box?
-
Very nice dude. is that RWD?
thankyou for the comments! :)im hopeing this can keep me interested for a long while, well longer than the starlet!
its fwd mate. though rwd would of been fun!

if your getting the autobahn 88 i would get new clips as they are made out of rusty paperclips, and they are not so giving on the samco. but as above dose the job well!
-
Yeah they pop up on ebay quite regularly, you can have my rear evo seats if you want!
you'll never get rid of them! i tryed even starting at 99p on ebay and they didnt go! lol
-
well this is the last drive for me to sell the glanza as it is and its £5000. my thread in the for sale thread is here but no interest. i dont want to split the thing, but i will if need be. as im unemployed i need the money atm to get my other car up and running! so please please someone make my life easy and buy it as it is! (all the interior for the rear will be supplied, old intercooler, evo 7 rear bench door cards as i have evo 7 recaros in the front.) its at a perfect stage if someone wanted to td04 etc it, all it pretty much needs is the kit, injectors and larger pipe! or even forged internals! has latest hks management, hks boost controller, hks fuel rail, hks fuel regulator etc.im going to give it 1-2weeks for interest!
thankyou for looking!

got my car from the same place as you!
he's an ok guy, but he promised me the 98 front lip, but actually ordered a 96 one, but since did me a few deals.
loving your progress mate.
he's a dodgey bloke... lol but tbh he alright and helped me out abit with sorting my car out! also created 2 lots of business for him so im in need of a few parts so going to see if he can help me out!
thansk for comments!

1.3 bar on the standard ct9??
what management are you runningmate?
that wont last long, after 1bar the ct9 turns into a giant hair dryer due to its tiny ass,
you turbo will blow if running that daily.
im running hks f-con is, my boost controller is off, on a daily drive or motorways which slowly creeps to 1 bar, then on low boost setting, 1bar around 170bhp and the high boost 180bhp. but was told to only use on short runs.
turbo is slowly going, but looking at replacing it or getting a re-build hi-brid for now, while i figure out what next turbo set up i want and once then, think about how im going to sort out a forged engine. but im just waiting for turbo to go 1st. but trust me im not running that power all the time. so far i v used it twice
-
nice looking car mate! very low eeekkk
-
got my car mapped today with the current mods and the final reading was 180bhp with 198 pounds of torque, running 1.3 bar. i no this is useless without my read-out of which il collect monday. i watched it being mapped today at "track and road" in essex, but the cars m.o.t runs out sunday, so he's keeping the baby till monday but he took me out for a spin (as i want to get used to the power increase by myself), and wow! its fast!
the only thing holding me back, is the turbo, injectors and exhaust
will get print out up monday eve after i finished work!
cant wait to take it out!
-
Running at 1.2 bar on the ct9 won't make any more power than at 1 bar well maybe 2-3bhp but for the extra stress and heat that will be generated its not worth it.
My car was mapped to 1bar and it was making only 3 bhp more at 15psi compared with 13psi.
Just to let you know!
As I've already said the car looks ace with the splitter added. ;)
ahh cheers mate for the heads up! will find out on saturday. as i have no clue about mapping etc, the person who's doing it, no's alot more than me, i dont think he'll do anything which would put to much more strain on it. as you said 3bhp is not worth it!
thanks for the comments!
tbh i dont like the later spec rear lights, too bubbley. i like the fenders, where they have cuts in them. but i think its just a phase! lol
-
Looks wayyyyy better with the splitter, what a difference!!
Cars looking awesome now, whats next?
cheers guys thanks for the comments!
next saturday is re-map and my boost controller will be set up to run 1bar on lo and 1.2bar on high. have been told not to run that all the time only when needed. like over taking tractors lol!
then get the suspension set up proper, like with my weight and weight of the car etc etc. then saving, saving, pay off mum, saving saving and td04. depends if I've got into a certain job il get a run around, pull the starlet off the road and get internals forged etc with td04 set up.
tbh for now there isnt going to be many more changes after the re-map, maybe bigger bore exhaust, get rid of airbag etc.
or can anyone else offer any suggestions what to do?? im open for offers!

updated with my new lip! hehe
my fav and on my drive.

fiatforum, thats were i saw u man.
thats a very smart punto there dude, really likin that. those coupe wheels are absolute sex, i love them! great colour choice for them too!!!!
Phil.
that was the best bit of that car! cost a bomb to get them like that and fit the punto, as needed them re-furbed, painted, spacers, longer wheel nuts for the back, lockers, longer lockers for the back new tyres. but they went to a good home to someone on the punto mk2 forum. the actuall coupe wheels cost £77 for four on ebay! i thought a bargin!
cheers mate!
-
yes im a member of punto mk2 forum and fiat forum as i owned one just before this car, infact i traded it in for this car!
this was my old car if anyone interested
the briaded hosing i have no idea, but the fastners, are goodrich ones ;)
-
Looking good mate....the crystal fog lights are a nice touch but they dont look like they fit very well in the one pic???
no they dont! when i was having a look to see if they fit, i accidently snapped the clipped of the back of the 96 spec ones, so only had these left. so tryed to adapt them to fit with not much luck sit too far forward. later on il prob get rid of the fogs as i dont use them and it would be a good place to stick my filter!
-
couple new pics, this is how the car stands atm
stripped out
then went into the shop to get some bits sorted.
hks fuel rail
de-cat
g-reddy uprated clutch
cusco lightweight flywheel
hks fuel regulator
hks actuator
briaded hosses
up-rated fuel pump
fuel filter
now i have a leaky drivshaft, so that will need to get fixed, and wheel bearing. then get me self a re-map and should see a bigger improvement. hoping for 165+bhp 200 torque. im already at 142bhp-174torque! fingers crossed!
