lobotomy Posted February 6, 2007 Posted February 6, 2007 what i found out is if you put it in low boost and take off it not as badso what i do now is take off in low boost and when i change to 2nd i put it high and off it goes !The Glanza is restricted to low boost in 1st and second gear anyway, so you shouldn't need to hit the LO button -- and looking at your engine bay pic you haven't bypassed the LO boost solenoid.I think you'll just have to learn to feather the throttle though.I got my car Rolling Roaded shortly after I got it, my mods were:HKS Cat Back exhaust (With a slight blow)Blitz SUS FilterApexi SAFCAnd I made 138.4BHP -- so you'll be around that mark mate.

Guest Enzo Posted February 15, 2007 Posted February 15, 2007 you should trty pypassing the hi low boost solenoid in your glanza mate takes the restriction away making the car quiet abit different to drive in the dry on a twisty road,best of all its free Quote
SiCaln Posted February 15, 2007 Posted February 15, 2007 yea i can testify to the difference it makes, Rick did it without me knowing Quote
lobotomy Posted February 16, 2007 Posted February 16, 2007 yea i can testify to the difference it makesSo can I -- the car feels like a different animal to be honest... though it was a bit of a double edged sword because the extra 1-2psi you free up as a result of bypassing the solenoid kept putting me over fuel cut if I put my throttle past 50% It was a bugger to say the least when overtaking!

Starletmeech Posted June 26, 2007 Posted June 26, 2007 no they probably won't! Who were you insured with? Quote
Idrees Posted June 26, 2007 Posted June 26, 2007 RIP sweetie!!If your gonna but it back and strip it, I'll take the skirts and wing mirrors. Quote
Mikey Jay Posted June 26, 2007 Posted June 26, 2007 Sorry to be a real arse, but no matter how you crash, and who with, tpft does not cover your car, all it does is cover any damage caused to other vehicles in an accident, not your own. Quote
woodchopper87 Posted June 26, 2007 Author Posted June 26, 2007 RIP sweetie!!If your gonna but it back and strip it, I'll take the skirts and wing mirrors.i dont know what you mean by "buy it back" the car is mine ??admiral Quote
Starletmeech Posted June 26, 2007 Posted June 26, 2007 haha mikey i was asking who he was with cause of the price he paid for the insurance! if i can get a glanza for £900 insured i will aim to buy one soon! Quote
woodchopper87 Posted June 26, 2007 Author Posted June 26, 2007 Sorry to be a real arse, but no matter how you crash, and who with, tpft does not cover your car, all it does is cover any damage caused to other vehicles in an accident, not your own. ;) cheers for the info anyway bud Quote
Idrees Posted June 26, 2007 Posted June 26, 2007 i dont know what you mean by "buy it back" the car is mine ??admiralIf the Insurance class it as a right off I thought they'd pay you out, and then you could buy it back from the scrappers to strip yourself. But as Mikey now said, you probably won't get paid out so yes the car is yours Quote
Mikey Jay Posted June 26, 2007 Posted June 26, 2007 PM Bourkey, he might want your engine (providing it's intact) Quote
Sparky Posted June 26, 2007 Posted June 26, 2007 Oh shit I recognise the car now Was a minter love those wheels, if they are undamaged (which I doubt) I could be interested Gutting you wont get paid out aswell ;) Quote
