BAZ2CRAZY Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 My erection over this car just keeps getting bigger. . . get the 4efte in ;) Quote
RobSR Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 dont get a flocked dash in a road car...theres needi presume you know why its then done galliano? Quote
Idrees Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 dont get a flocked dash in a road carWhy? It would look immense. I'll have your old dash please Sparky so I can flock that for mine. ;) Quote
Sparky Posted October 12, 2008 Author Posted October 12, 2008 Something to do with light not being able to reflect and distract the driver I thought? So why is there no need? It will look awsomeMy dash is broke mate thats why I got this one, the bit where you screw the centre console in place has snapped off from where the wankers broke into it ;)Just off the phone to my old man, all the engine parts like inlet mani, throttle body, thermostat housing etc has all been cleaned to bare metal so should be looking nice by the time I get it back Quote
SiCaln Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 sounds good mate, u gna spray/anodise the bits in the bay? Quote
Galliano Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 heres what it looked like when he first had it done, i have no idea if its the same now or been re done or anything though Quote
Galliano Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 A: dont get a flocked dash in a road car...theres needB: i presume you know why its then done galliano?A: why not just suggest that you dont really feel for the idea, not tell him not to do it.B: i do know why its done, its to stop glare on the screen so there is more visibility for the driver, its done to all rally and touring cars.

Galliano Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 im going to be looking into having it done, but in black, along with the center console and doorcard pods aswell.. may cost a bomb, but it looks well worth it Quote
Sparky Posted October 13, 2008 Author Posted October 13, 2008 Bahh wouldnt have that colour, just black would look immense ;)@Si not going to tart this bay up much just get it nice and clean as it has been neglected over the past 3 and half years i.e never cleaned I know exactly how I want my bay to look when the FTE is in though Quote
SiCaln Posted October 14, 2008 Posted October 14, 2008 sounds good man, care to elaborate on your later plans? Quote
tucka Posted October 14, 2008 Posted October 14, 2008 ^^^the bay above looks awsum!!i would paint the bay black when you have engine out, helps it look cleaner for longer, and just looks better imo in you know what i mean.. Quote
SiCaln Posted October 14, 2008 Posted October 14, 2008 that does look great man just do it like that Quote
Sparky Posted October 14, 2008 Author Posted October 14, 2008 Yea looks tasty IMOJust nice and clean withe blue pipingObviously I wont have the boost solenoid etc so maybe the filter will be sat there in nice stainless air box, similar to the one of the MC Monster but with a perspex top ;) Quote
pallett Posted October 14, 2008 Posted October 14, 2008 orite mate, ive got a friend who has got a glanza rear axle with disc brakes, all wiring looms for the engine and dash, the speedo cluster and the indicator stalks, think i also read somewhere about needing a standard glanza exhaust which he has , if you want any more info then give me a PM, he also needs these items gone quite quickly so you may get a good bargain, also got pics if youre interested.cheers pallett Quote
SiCaln Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 is this a 96 or a 98 Glanza? and does it have dial heater controls or button ones? Quote
Sparky Posted October 15, 2008 Author Posted October 15, 2008 Oi Si get out my thread The bits you mention pallet bar the exhaust I have, its just I havent picked it up yet, thanks for the offer anyway I may be in touch ;)Car is being a cunt still, shes all up and running, just got a flat spot in the low revs and really struggles to get up hills, well thats what my Dad said as I am in uni.Any ideas?? Quote
pallett Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 ok then mate no worries, just thought i had saw it somewhere so thought i would let you know, if you do want the exhaust though just get in touch as i have someone interested in the middle section only and he would rather it all went in one piece.cheers Quote
Galliano Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 thats what my Dad said as I am in uni.Any ideas??tell him to stop racking up the miles on your car? Quote
Sparky Posted October 15, 2008 Author Posted October 15, 2008 Hes trying to get it running for me, aswell as posing :) Quote
Sparky Posted October 25, 2008 Author Posted October 25, 2008 Really shouldnt be spending but im just about to right a cheque for a lovely piece of TRD Carbon for the interior ;)My Dad is working on the car as we speak hopefully she will be up and ruinning today so I can go put my Glanza back axle on ready the meet in a few weeks!! Oh and pic up the remainder of my conversion bits Quote
Sparky Posted October 25, 2008 Author Posted October 25, 2008 OK we may have resolved running issuesLooks like when it was running uber rich it has fucked the cat, my Dad just told me the exhaust manifold and cat was just glowing white!!So hes whipping the cat off to check but I have just booked it into Pro-Speed for a decat section ;)Thats FTE money gone though Quote
