As i am sure most of you will know I have got a new later-spec Glanza V, I have had it now for the past 3 weeks, and had so far changed the seats and alloys, but said I would leave the rest standard for a month to get used to it.

Unfortunately I had a moment of weakness and with the additional bonus of being able to meet Shelly, I took my car to Sittingbourne to her cousins company - Impulse Performance, to have the D2 coilovers (that i had got from them from a previous group buy) and a Whiteline pan-hard rod fitted - the guys did a great job and were true gents, Shelly is as lovely as we all think she is too lol, she took some pics of both of our cars that I hope she will post later.

Well in true Blue Peter style here's before

and here's after:

its a far firmer ride now as the springs are bedding in but they have improved the handling incredibly and make it sit with a far more aggressive stance.

Oh this pic made me laugh too, so i'm including it for the hell of it:

[shelly_star]

Ok somehow the other photo i took didn't save onto my phone, bugger!! But here is one of mine and Si's car at Impulse this afternoon.

[SiCaln]

got this today from the guy i bought my car off, another mod to add to my future list, already got twin pot brakes to go on, this rear bar, front under bar, bov, the list goes on n nothing gets done lol

[SiCaln]

gave it a wash today so added some pics

also fitted the Cusco rear bar

and just one of the interior again

[SiCaln]

Done a few little mods, as they say the devil is in the details. So...

...Reflet rear lights

also got rid of that horrid SVA-passing rear fog light, its now wired into my rear cluster, it still operates as a side light and uses the second filament for foglight purposes

TRD oil cap, regards of Toby's group buys

GLS binacle surround, got this off of Rick really improves the look of the dials i think

still loadsa bits to go on but other bits need doing first, my calliper bolts have seized so theyv gotta b cut off first before anything else happens

[SiCaln]

few little changes

start off with a simple equation

+ + =

+ + + =

Because without those rings i could not fit my alloys, they werent exactly right, they sit 0.5mm proud n are 1mm to narrow but they work with a bit of electrical tape n something sticky to keep em off the ground - how bout some Toyo T1-R's?

oh and i got this little Cusco goodie fitted too

oh i also had the suspension raised 25mm too and here's the finished article

[SiCaln]

Got this through the post yesterday (TRD shortdshifter and gear knob) so on it goes, accompanied by my handbrake gaiter from Toyota, nice close change you can feel the difference

[SiCaln]

ah got a few bits to go but this is gna help toward a bit of power, just picked up a set of 256 Cruise cams off Si,

here are some other bits hidden away from my unsuspecting mother in the loft:

Whiteline anti-lift and Samco rad hoses, and (safety first) forged pistons

TRD mounts

just need some forged rods, a Cruise headgasket, ORC Clutch and a SARD RRFPR and ill be set, oh and i wanna SARD K24 turbo kit

[SiCaln]

few new bits

Carat/GLS centre console to match my dial surround

and some Cruise valve springs

[SiCaln]

heres the console fitted

not sure what i think, it looks kinda different to the dial surround

[SiCaln]

Thanks Si, got these this morning great stuff, original toyota sales documents

[SiCaln]

Ive got most of the parts for my 2pot levin conversion now, gna go and see HiSpec after xmas to see whats gna be cheaper, cutting the discs to size of standard glanza or having a bracket made up.

Prob cutting to size, either way getting some groovage in the discs too, so here are the parts i have so far. Cusco BCS is fitted already, here we have braided lines, Levin twin pots (soon to be satin black), the disc spacer and standard pads, still waiting on Levin Endless pads that i bought in the group buy on TGTT. Just need some 5.1 fluid and some longer wheel lugs oh and some time to do it all then will be finsihed yay.

The discs themselves are mahoosive, 275mm wide, 25mm thick, The V uses 253mm wide and 22mm thick.

The lines i got from Si's breaker and also the spacers that fit inside the disc to give enough room

The callipers i scored for £150, gna have to rub em down and paint em satin black though

and the whole gang together

[SiCaln]

Yay new stereo was fitted on friday (early xmas gift),and I've got the calliper paint i was after to paint my brakes, now all i need is the time to paint em

Sony Mex-BT5000

[SiCaln]

Thanks guys, yea its bluetooth so i can answer my phone and also stream and play music from my phone on it

As far as costing the brake parts,

Callipers - £150 from JB Motorsport

Discs - £100 from toyota

Lines - £50 from Simon

Spacers - £80 sourced form Japland with Si's help

and just got some satin black paint that im gna give em a coat of to funk em up a bit

also they came with standard pads, but I've ordered a set of Endless SSS pads form Envy for £105, waiting on them at the mo

too weird only just typed that ring of the door bell package form envy, id only paid a deposit lol better get on the phone n send em the other £85 lol

Look a pretty funky blue tho sweet

[SiCaln]

Given them five days to dry and they dont look too bad, few bits need re-touching but shouldnt be an issue

[SiCaln]

got some pics of the smoothed lip for ya, not bad for a £100 i reckon

[SiCaln]

not as much as me man, ordered it on the first of Jan, i know they didnt start again til the 10th, but the thing is if u pay for ems 3-7 day postage and they pick the order up on the 10th should be here today or tomorrow at the latest, theyv said i can have my money back - but i took day off work to fit it and everything - also if they say that suggests they havent sent it yet!

As i am sure you guys have realised, the twin pots are on and sexual they are too, think im going to have to re bleed the brakes tho gone a little bit spongey, but here they are:

[img]http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y44/SiCaln/TwinPots/Done.jpg[/img]

Pretty nice through the wheels too. Myself and Rick are fitting some other parts today so ill post some pics up later.

[SiCaln]

We made some massive progress today!

Well i think so anyway, managed to fit my mystery item, try out the cooling panel and re-fit my HID lights yay.

Well here u go anyway, before

During

After, pretty swish i reckon, sucks better than Monica Lewinsky too!

All praise too Rick your a legend mate cheers for all your help mate!

[SiCaln]

just got this today, much prefer the look of this Blitz dual drive bov to the earlier trumpet ones, but i need to ask what is the point of the silver tube? and where does the bracket go?

[SiCaln]

not a good moment, someone hit me in the rear today - i was stationary at traffic lights, he was doing bout 30-40mph i reckon im gutted

took it to local repairers, they have said im gna at least need a new boot floor and bumper, could even be a right off, i am gutted

[SiCaln]

tryna find out a quote now

heres the gory details

[SiCaln]

well we just got off the phone with the guy who hit me, what an a-hole hes saying i braked hard, erm dont think so, further than that he says he knows cars and £1000 labour is too much, the car is only worth £1500, yea he knows cars alright!

the guy who was with him at the time turns out to be his boss, not his dad and he wasnt there - so the car was company insured and he gave us all the verbal like bring it to northfleet tomorrow well get it fixed, again no, well get it fixed where i wna get it fixed

he said his boss will be there this time tomorrow and to phone him then, so im gna give them the benefit of the doubt and do that, then im gna go through insurance

[SiCaln]

yea i know, phoned him with my dad and put him on speakerphone and even my dad said what a chavvy c**t and he hates that word, he couldnt understand him either lol but its ok because the bloke 'knows about cars' and my cars not even worth £1500, what a cock lol

oh and i have contacted insurance already did it on they day, but they said id have to pay £550 excess and £50 legal cover, so try n get him to initiate first, if not come back to us, good of em i thought - so were gna phone the boss tonight and take it from there - if i do have to pay out it shouldnt affect my no claims and i will get it back - after all it was his fault, knob sack

[SiCaln]

Right, well surprise surprise im gettin the run around, phoned and he said he couldnt talk because he was driving phoned back 10 mins later was being very arsey, refused to let me talk to the boss, or even tell me the name of the company

so I've phoned the police reported the incident and im gna go to my local station with my details and they'll help me get the information i need to hopefully process a claim

[SiCaln]

ok had a few new developments - the police werent all that helpful, and when i phoned him last night hes changed his phone number!

So i thought y pussy foot around anymore i told my insurers to see if he was insured, they checked his number plate on the system and nothing came up, but then i mentioned he said he was with Norwich Union and what do u know the little fuckers on there!

NI wouldnt give out details without starting a claim, so I have sent over some quotes and hes gonna start the ball rolling on monday! as if the little shit thought i was just gonna roll over and take it!

Lets take this cunt down lol
