jeffrosie Posted July 24, 2016 Author Share Posted July 24, 2016 Hi Skiny, what's wrong with your GT4? Mine needs the BC's fitted and exhaust rehung as I may have twisted since originally fitted?? not sure! The 5Door is coming well. Will soon cut the paint after front bonnet is painted. Side skirts going on this week after paint. And rear hatch needs fitting too with spoiler and number plate surround. Then have to transfer electric mirror looms.Has anybody fitted aircon? Love to transfer the aircon from the S. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jeffrosie Posted July 27, 2016 Author Share Posted July 27, 2016 I'll get the pics when I fit the sideskirts - hopefully this weekend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EP70-PT Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 (edited) Let me know how you get around fitting the skirts mate, I don't know how to install them... should I drill through the body or just use silicone x)Want more pics!!!! Edited July 27, 2016 by EP70-PT Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jeffrosie Posted July 28, 2016 Author Share Posted July 28, 2016 I will drill through the body and spray the inside if the sills through each hole with ACF50 - brilliant stuff . Going to use stainless self tapping bolts with stainless penny washers. Then run a thin edge of PU18 along the top edge to seal the top to the body. Stops too much rain running down into the skirts.

Linear Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Looking really nice, it's great to see a 5 door getting some love! Can't wait for the sideskirt pictures Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jeffrosie Posted July 28, 2016 Author Share Posted July 28, 2016 Same mate. Will definitely be fitted Saturday and pics will be up. Taking shape now with the bumpers, wings and bonnet. Tailgate with spoiler needs fitting too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EP70-PT Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 How are you marking the holes? You using clips? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jeffrosie Posted July 28, 2016 Author Share Posted July 28, 2016 (edited) Holes to be drilled and ACF50 to be sprayed into sills through all holes drilled. Sills then refitted with stainless screws and stainless penny washers. Lol thought you said 'making'. Going to hang the skirts with low tack masking tape and use a Sharpie to mark the holes mate Edited July 28, 2016 by jeffrosie Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jeffrosie Posted July 31, 2016 Author Share Posted July 31, 2016 Didn't have the guts to drill the sills so just 1 screw hole on rear arch lip and bonded skirts to sills and front caps clipped on and screwed as using Glanza wings Rear Arch lip screw fixing Ready to pull some PU18 sealant Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jeffrosie Posted July 31, 2016 Author Share Posted July 31, 2016 Here she is wearing her skirts. Bonnet needs paint as in primer, but car nearly there body wise. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EP70-PT Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 (edited) Nice work! Might do the same to attach my skirts, I dont have the guts to drill either.... Are you glueing the rest of the skirt to the rear door? Edited July 31, 2016 by EP70-PT Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jeffrosie Posted July 31, 2016 Author Share Posted July 31, 2016 No mate, not going to fit the cut off bits. Love the way it looks as it now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jeffrosie Posted July 31, 2016 Author Share Posted July 31, 2016 (edited) Once the skirts were fitted I also squeezed some PU18 through the fixing holes under the skirts and bonded them to the sills. Better than drilling the sills. Edited August 1, 2016 by jeffrosie Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Linear Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Looks great, nicely done! I'm tempted to try and source some skirts now lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jeffrosie Posted August 2, 2016 Author Share Posted August 2, 2016 Do it mate as it completely changes the appearance of the car and brings it bang up to date. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jeffrosie Posted September 13, 2016 Author Share Posted September 13, 2016 Not much but soon as Corolla/Glanza S inlet manifold painted and also fitting Glanza S exhaust manifold as its a 4-2-1.Will also check at this time if mine has a knock sensor.Advanced the timing by 4 degrees, reset ECU and using Shell98. Good increase in torque, so i'm happy.Will do the same after fitting manifolds. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
