Oliver Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Hi my name is oliver and I am from Bradford, I currently own a Toyota yaris T-Sport, but seriously considering about getting a glanza v, just wanted to see if you guys could give me any info about the car, like power I could get out of the car without pushing the engine to hard?I am very much into moding but hope to buy one with most of the performance modâ??s already done!I have seen one on piston heads that I like but donâ??t want to rush into buying the first one that I see!If there is a for sale section on here I will have a look and hope you gays can push me in the right direction towards buying one!Cheers Oli Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asad Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Welcome mate.....bradford eh? how far from the uni? power for these things ranges alot depends on what you will use it for, money you have to throw at it, power goals etc personally i`d settle for 190-200bhp more than enough for the little starlet and easily manageable.Use the search button/have a look around the other sections....enjoy your stay Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Asad Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Lol stock glanza is ~133Bhp...not to keen on the yaris`s read about sooo many re-calls/problems on them with this not being tight enough thats not strong enough. Starlets for sale http://www.ukstarletclub.com/forums/index.php?showforum=35 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Oliver Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 I really donâ??t want to get rid of my yaris but the power just isnâ??t enoughAnd I think a glanza is the next best thing.I have never had any problems with yaris tho!Thanks for the link buddy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bluebear Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 I've heard a 4E-FTE (Starlet engine) swap into the Yaris is entirely feasible. Would make a nice sleeper too ;DWelcome to the site dude! Which Yaris is it? One the the first gen T-Sports? My parents had one, good little motors. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bluebear Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Yeah, I much prefer that shape. Hate the old shape's facelifted lights (the teardrop ones). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
