Just found out that the exhaust is ep82 specific, but that will get switched to a Glanza specific exhaust. hehe, a bit unlucky there, hehe

@ Sparky

The exhaust is a cat back exhaust for a 4Efte engine, and the cat sits behind the turbocharger, so the length is right.

And as you can se I am going to transplant an 4efte engine into my car.

Sorry for not being online these 2 last weeks, but I have been busy.

So back to the project.

I have received the correct exhaust, Glanza specific, from Envy Performance.

So thats sorted.

But here comes some good and bad news.

The good news are, that I have bought an apartment, in sweden, so I am moving away from denmark.

But I am taking my starlet with me, hehe. So don´t worry.

The bad news are, that the money that I have saved, that should have been used on an engine transplant, have been used on a down payment for the apartment.

And tht slowed the engine project a little bit.

But I am not giving up, the starlet will have a Turbo engine, but it will take a few months.

I feel your pain :lol:

Another update.

As I wrote before that I have moved to sweden, there has been some complications with the starlet project.

It is ilegal in sweden to build a left hand drive starlet with a turbo engine.

So I have de-modded my starlet, is is now completly stock.

And the car is for sale.

But after the car has been sold, I am going to visit UK to pick up a Glanza, hehe.

So the show and the project goes on.

Just with a real Glanza!

A litlle update...

I have found out that maybe there is a chance to build a LHD glanza legally, so I am waiting to hear more about that.

I the mean time, i thought what the hell, I was tired of driving a standard starlet, so today, I have fitted the D2 coilovers and the greddy strutbrace.

And I have bought 2 sets of alloy, one set are normal looking 14" alloys with continental tires and the other set is 15" BBS look alloys with brand new Toyo Proxes T1-R.

I will post some pics later on....

Hey Raffi

Hope you find out soon about what you can do with a starlet in sweden hehe.

Glad you got the d2s and strutbrace fitted, give the coilys time to settle in.

Nice to hear from you and all the best.

Talk soon

Every thing is cool, and coming along nicely, the apartment and the car.

The next thing is sideskirts and the rear bumper, and off to the painters.

Soon I will be forced to invest in a Carbon Rear Spoiler, hehe....
