My Jam/livesports Ep91!


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I purchased my Glanza in Late April 2007.

Unfortunatley I cannot get access to the pics I took of it back then.

Basically, it came in from Japan (me been the first Irish owner) with red Sparco Crimsons alloys in 14 inch. It had 1998 spec clear front indicators, Blitz boost gauge, Blitz Air-Breather, HKS actuator, Fujitsbu Cat-Back exhaust, TRD Shocks with RSR lowering springs. It also had huge stickers on both drivers and passengers doors and on the bonnet with numbers "110" on it!

First thing to do was to change the alloys. I bought a brand new set of Lenso RS5's in 16 inch.

Then I came across the 1996 spec optional extra splitter.

Git it fitted along with a set of eyebrows and an autobahn FMIC.

Never was a fan of the Blitz sun-visor and it is still on lol!

It will be coming off next week though.

Standard seats had to go. Did not like them!

Replaced them with a brand new pair of these:

And harnesses:

An Apexi Turbo Timer and an Apexi RSM were next installed:

Replaced the 1996 spec rear lights with 1998 spec:

After driving the Glanza for over a year I felt I was getting bored of it and bought a Skyline R33 last Summer (2008)

I have not driven the Glanza since September 2008 so decided I would strip the aftermarket parts from it and flog them and then sell the Glanza as standard.

By Christmas all the aftermarket bits were gone:(

Sudden change of heart in January 09 and I wanted the Glanza back!:rockon:

So the modifying began!

I got the Glanza onto a lorry (Glanza was stripped - no intercooler / mani etc...) and transported it into my garage:)

Into the Garage and it looking sad and neglected on 4th April 2009 :D - not for long though!

It was also looking very intimidated by the 3 Skylines lol!

First thing to do was get rid of the 1996 spec bumper / spoiler and skirts.

New ones will be fitted next week - Watch this thread on how it progresses over the next week.

I got stuck into the classifieds of TGTT and picked up alot of parts.

- Emanage Blue

- 2 New seats

- Steering wheel

- WEPR fmic

- New EBC Greenstuff pads

- SPS Mani

- SPS decat

New lights front and rear were fitted.

Now I am just waiting for the bodykit to come back from spraying:rockon:

Looks nice now mate, still undecided on that rear lip though. Some nice JDM rims would finish it off nicely, Bronze Advan RG's! :D

And yeah that's a JAM lip mate.

I agree on the wheels, however the splitter is a livesports one.:p

Its looking good Aidan, I'm not a fan of big kits normally but the back end of yours seems to work really well.:D
