Nanglebadger Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 glad to see this beaut has stayed in the UKSC family with someone who has a proper passion for these cars!!! excellent purchase young man! health to enjoy!Phil. Quote
Liam_D Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 As said glad its still with a member of UKSC, when Tucka put it for sale i was gutted as its a properly nice car. You've bought another stunner mate, and im sure whatever you do to it is gonna be awesome. Quote
Michel_M Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 Damn, that's one neat Glanza you got there. I really love the white on white with the carbon hood for contrast. Quote
Idrees Posted October 2, 2009 Author Posted October 2, 2009 Cheers guys, comments much appreciated!New pictures added. Quote
Kennedy Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 Just text you mate..but doesnt look like there sending :SThem pics look really smart..think it needs some 98 spec rear clusters though? Quote
Idrees Posted October 2, 2009 Author Posted October 2, 2009 No I haven't got it mate, try a PM. Yeah I'm planning to get some Reflet full units. I was thinking about a 98 spec bumper too but I really like it as it is to be honest, and this cut out would suit the WEPR cooler better. Quote
Tejai Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 Feel sorry for the guy who sold it to you! I mean if I had a ride like that and sold it DAMN... Tears of sadness!On another note Great buy mate! And the car looks SEXY!Tj Quote
Laura_ep91 Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 glad to see the car has gone to some one who will develop the car further. Really has brought a tear to my eye to see that tucka has sold the car that we bought together Quote
shelly_star Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 Always loved Tucka's glanza it's soooooooooo ssssssssswwwweeeeeeeeeetttttttttt!!!Nice project car there Idrees Quote
Idrees Posted October 3, 2009 Author Posted October 3, 2009 Cheers guys.Well I'm using it as a daily, topping it up with water about 3 times a day. I keep it off boost and it's cool, temperature sits at 85 degrees most of the time. I leave the fan constantly switched on too. Quote
shaneyb Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 She is beautiful, easily one of my favs. You must be very proud to own her. Quote
jason_l Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 Car looks mint Iddy Love the kit and looks so sexual in white!...............you didn't blur the number plate in all the pics by the way Quote
Idrees Posted October 3, 2009 Author Posted October 3, 2009 Thanks guys. I didn't get time to do the plates in all the pictures!Tucka said it pushes the coolant back out, but I think it burns it more. It might even be leaking at the water pump, need to look at it when I get a chance. Yeah I thought of the same idea about the heaters, seems to work sometimes, but at other times the air is cold? For example tonight I was taking it easy and it stuck around 85 degrees and the air was warm, then I thought I'd give it a blast on the way home and as it started to overheat, the heaters went cold! Any idea? Quote
BenV Posted October 4, 2009 Posted October 4, 2009 could it be a head gasket problem? im sureif the heaters get cold it somthing to do with that, could be wrong though. hope you get her sorted fella Quote
Idrees Posted October 4, 2009 Author Posted October 4, 2009 Yeah it's most probably the headgasket mate. I'm just tyring to save for a forged engine so not too worried about this one. Quote
Idrees Posted October 8, 2009 Author Posted October 8, 2009 Heres my first update.I decided to go for a new turbo setup yesterday, as my mate Rumel from TGTT was selling his.It's a WEPR TD04 Hybrid kit. A couple of pics with some of the parts I have waiting to be fitted to the V.WEPR Stainless Manifold (Stock Radiator Friendly)WEPR Stainless DownpipeTial 38mm External WastegateTD04 Hybrid TurboBraided Oil/Water PipesWEPR Front Mounted IntercoolerCusco Oil Catch CanApexi Air FilterI have other parts sitting around, and have ordered more. I'll update again once everything is here. A bit of bad news is that I am not going forged just yet, because I did the Maths and it comes to £4k straight away. This way is still costing me over £2k, and that doesn't include the parts I already have from my GT, which are worth about £1500! So I'm leaving the forging out for now, and I'm planning on fitting the engine from my GT because I know it's in good condition and has done rather low miles. Quote
LukeSR Posted October 8, 2009 Posted October 8, 2009 Some nice shiny parts you got there Can't wait to see progress on this mate, best of luck ! Quote
