scottyb Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 Had my glanza since july, i've been after one since i was learning to drive but couldnt afford the insurance. But then after a couple of years it dropped to the same insurance as my 1.2 16v clio. So obviously i took the better option. Absolutley love it tbh. I'm the first uk owner too, was immaculate when i got it. Not done much to it yet apart from change the stereo to a uk cd player from the jap minidisc and fitted a forge motorsport dump valve. Mods - 14" work equip 01Forge motorsport dump valveHKS panel filterGP Sports backbox.RS*R shocks and springsFuture plans -get the optional front splitter and possibly the back one too, considering the duck spoiler alsoNew wheels - looking at 15" rota gt3sFMIC - Not sure which one thoughdecat downpipe and manifoldbuddy club spec 2 exhaustand eventually go bigger turbos and higher boost.

Bildo Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 I need to echo the previous comments I'm afraid. Are they actually real Equip's? If so you could get good money for them and buy yourself a great set of wheels that suit the car perfectly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan5793 Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 98 black V! plans sound great but im not keen on the wheels personally lolall the best with it, looks a nice example. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

joel_ep91 Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 i like the wheels and think they look good on the car Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryan lang Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 i think the wheels would look immense if the color was the other way around, like where its polished have black, and where its black have polished other than that mate, looks tidy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Galliano Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 The wheels need lower profile tyres to look better. Nice style wheels, just not the right rubber.Still a 98 spec and black! Mmmm Quote Link to post Share on other sites

scottyb Posted October 4, 2010 Author Share Posted October 4, 2010 yeah, most have you have just echo'd the usual comments. i love the wheels but they dont really suit the look i want tbh, the arch gap and tyre size really bugs me. I could go coilies etc and try to get it all looking great, but id rather have a bit of comfort etc than having it just look good on the wheels. so i'm going to try and get black and red gt3s i think. id ultimately want enkei rpfs but they're so damn expensive, and i cant bring myself to sell the equips.@bildo, yes they're real equips, 3 piece, work valve caps, all the work stamps on the wheels etc. and i forgot to put in the original post, its got RS*R suspension on it too.

scottyb Posted October 5, 2010 Author Share Posted October 5, 2010 has anyone had any dealings with nc performance on ebay? they're selling a stainless glanza manifold for £90. which seems pretty cheap for a manifold Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam_D Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Wheels are awesome, but they are just to small and dont look right! Rest of it looks sweet though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asad Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Stay away from the ebay manifolds mate get your standard one ported while you save for a proper one (see the traders on the site) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scottyb Posted October 5, 2010 Author Share Posted October 5, 2010 yea thats what i was thinking. no idea where id get my standard one ported. winters coming anyway, so i doubt ill be out spending much, so shall be starting saving for a few bits. found enkei rpf01s for £600ish though so i might end up going for them instead of rotas. 15" or 16" though?
