BlackRocket Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 Hi everyone, I've not actually got myself a starlet YET but i'm in the market for one now so fingers crossed i'll have one soon.At the moment I drive a Skoda Fabia VRS thats remapped to 160hp ATW and 340ft lbs torque.I used to do some motorway mile crunching with my job (hence the diesel) but i've changed job roles now so no longer need to drive all over the country and don't do the mileaget to justify the diesel!So if anyone is selling a not too heavily modified or standard Glanza V in WHITE drop me a line Quote
Sparky Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 Welcome to UKSC Them VRS go well when remapped!!White is the best colour Glanza, shame you dont want a heavily modded one as one of the best examples in the UK is up for sale for £6500, kingy's glanza Hope you find what your looking for Quote
BlackRocket Posted June 26, 2008 Author Posted June 26, 2008 Thanks for the welcomeThe VRS is great especially on the motorways and it teaches pesky boy racers in their new fiesta ST's a thing or too LOL! I've seen a few brilliant looking white Glanza's at a few car shows and I have gradually fallen in love with them.Fingers crossed i'll have a smart example to show you all soon! Quote
BlackRocket Posted June 27, 2008 Author Posted June 27, 2008 CheersThinking of going to an import company in york and seeing if they can get me a smart white one Quote
BlackRocket Posted October 8, 2008 Author Posted October 8, 2008 Change of heart!I'm going to see a P reg low miler in black tonight and if all goes well i'll have it on my drive this weekend What i'd like to know is what are the best mods to start with for a nice safe power hike? The car is supposed to have a HKS Mushroom filter and TRD Backbox on but thats it engine mod wise. What would you folks reccomend as the first things to do?StevePS: If I buy this car i'll need a name change so any suggestions welcome on that front too LOL! Quote
Asad Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 Firstly get rid of the HKS and get an apexi or something on there.....HKS are poo Quote
Glanza_cl Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 check out my thread build as i started with a standard black v, and have made a fair amount of progress and hope to be running 160 by the end of the month Quote

BlackRocket Posted October 10, 2008 Author Posted October 10, 2008 Thought i'd post the pics from the advert - just so that you know what to look out for! Quote
Asad Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 Looks really clean bud.......let the modding begin! Quote
Sparky Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 Looks kinda like Markoo's Glanza, same wheels just darker colour Needs lowering though ;) That Toyota headunit looks pretty funky aswell!!Oh and Black EK9 Type R on the drive, pretty rare!! Quote
