Sparky Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 Nice!!!!!!You say its cat back but how is it three pieces??? Looks like its going to be way too long Good work buddy ...............................................................................................................................................EDIT: Just read your thread on TGTT so that explains the exhaust Quote
Raffi Posted April 11, 2007 Author Posted April 11, 2007 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@ SparkyThe 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.

keirz Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 i must say the plans sound awsome mate. fair play. Quote
Raffi Posted May 4, 2007 Author Posted May 4, 2007 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.

Jozinobi Posted May 4, 2007 Posted May 4, 2007 Hey Raffi.Get your important stuff sorted first bro, then finish the ep off All the best in your new home mate.Keep in touch!Joz Quote

Nanglebadger Posted May 8, 2007 Posted May 8, 2007 keep it up man!Good luck with the move!Phil. Quote
Raffi Posted May 28, 2007 Author Posted May 28, 2007 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!

Sparky Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 Ahhhh thats a bit of bad news but also a bit of good news!!!The EP was coming along sweet mate but at least you can still keep a few bits like the seats, CF bonnet and D2's to name a few things ;)Hope it all goes well for ya man ;) Quote
Raffi Posted July 15, 2007 Author Posted July 15, 2007 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....
