lottie Posted December 13, 2010 Author Share Posted December 13, 2010 right! as some of you know a couple months back i had some arse do a hit and run on the driver side of my car. Due to having lack of funds i still haven't managed to get it repaired. So not only do i have that side buggered, now someone has gone into the passenger side of my car and done some nice damage there due to the ice! does someone really not want me to own a semi decent starlet or something!

Galliano Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Don't give up, shit happens. Take a look at Phils build thread, hes gone through a hell of alot with his car and theres always a way to come out on top. Wait for a cheap blurple Starlet to come up and buy it for parts, cheapest way - as you don't have to get the parts resprayed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lottie Posted January 23, 2011 Author Share Posted January 23, 2011 Hi guys Well, finaly passenger side has been repaired and hopefully getting drivers side done in feb or march finaly all coming back together as you all said I have got one problem though that i dont know how to fix so help would be much appreciated.... my fan belt is squeeking virtually every time i start the car mainly when its been raining or cold (i asume its that anyway) and i dont know how to tighten it as the belt itself seems to be in good condition so asume its just loose. If anyone can tell me how to do this myself or anyone in nottingham area thats willing to help i will give money your way as its really starting to piss me off lol.Cheers Charlotte x Quote Link to post Share on other sites

string Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 dunno if the glanza Mani is better than rolla one. Ryan or Chris are the boys for na tunin. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
G6R-Jamie Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 dunno if the glanza Mani is better than rolla one. Ryan or Chris are the boys for na tunin.I could be wrong but I think they are the same? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Glanza/GT mani's are a bit better than corolla ones, but they lead to fuel economy going down Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryan lang Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 they only lead to a decrease in fuel economy through grins and funz same as any mod really rolla mani or glanza mani will make a nice noticable difference in torque and bhp, which ever mani comes up 1st i suppose and price lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
G6R-Jamie Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Glanza/GT mani's are a bit better than corolla ones, but they lead to fuel economy going downYeah I just thought as I was in the car on the way home it's the Glanza S with the same mani.Quite shocking how Charlotte is ACTUALLY sorting her car out!

snails ep91 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 ive got both a corrola and a 4efte mani. pm me if interested.cheerssam Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryan lang Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 the glanza S comes with the corolla tubular inlet manifold. this one:this is the standard 4efe inlet manifold:and this is the 4efte inlet manifold:there is a noticable difference in height and shape of 4efe and 4efte manifold the tubular corolla or the 4efte inlets are the 1s to go for jamie Quote Link to post Share on other sites
G6R-Jamie Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Thanks Ryan thats made it a lot clearer now.Will have to ask Char which one she wants for her motor as it looks like Snails has both.Am I right in thinking you just need a bit of longer tubing and a couple of new gaskets and sealent?

lottie Posted July 27, 2011 Author Share Posted July 27, 2011 right... distributor cap, rotor arm and spark plugs all in!my Grids turned up today which i am very happy about! thanks to Jack (BizzleEP) so hopefully my 2nd set will he here tomorrow morning! then charlotte has some wheels again!!! WHOO :D:D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam_D Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 They are going to look awesome on there!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryan lang Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 they'll look good mate and no worries jamie, for the tubular manifold you'll need a new inlet to TB gasket unless you can get it off without ripping it because its basically paper, and just some extra hosing for the sensor (the red hosing coming off my firewall) for the glanza inlet, you'll need to block off a few pipes which i may have pics of for you buddy, ill pm them not to spam your thread Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BizzleEP Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 They are going to look awesome on there!!:) glad your pleased with them. enjoy. x Quote Link to post Share on other sites
