whitestar Posted June 5, 2011 Author Share Posted June 5, 2011 Thanks guys! I really appreciate it. I must say that I was a bit afraid to hear the noise comming out of the powergetter, but it turned out to be very nice and not too loud at all. Other choice for exhausts wat blitz nur spec rx, but luckily it wasn't available at that time, so I ended up to the fujitsubo. REAL jdm. Here's a few pics more from my camera, those previous ones were from my brothers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Idrees Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Looks awesome, so clean! Power Getter is the best exhaust available for the Glanza imo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
whitestar Posted September 21, 2011 Author Share Posted September 21, 2011 Thanks all of you! I've been quite busy whole summer (drove almost 9000km with my glanza during 3 months! ), moved to a different city and got a new job etc...So didn't have time to write here. So, the glanza is now stored for the winter (yeah, it's not winter yet, but couldn't afford to keep it in use because of the moving and stuff). Got a few pics of it weeks ago, gonna try to upload them at some point. Although I didn't make any more bigger mods to it this summer after cuscos and power getter, I've been planning lots of mods. Just trying to collect some money to make them true! One thig that has been haunting me is the new wheels I wanna get SOOOO bad! Been browsing stancenation.com too much I guess. This is what I did today with photoshop:Been planning white Rota Grids to front in 16x7" and Grid Drifts to back in 16x8". Maybe with ET 20? Can anyone say if it's going to rub like hell? I planned using my 195/40/16's all round. And maybe lower it a bit because it clearly is too high cause didn't get any hits from speedbumps whole summer! Here's a quick one too, to get the idea:Oh, and Idrees: The power getter really is an excellent exhaust! Love the sound of it so much, and the fitment was SO easy with all the bits fitting like a charm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Simon Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Car looks very nice buddy, i'm running 195/45/16 aqnd ET20 and you will need to have the rear arch lip rolled and possibly flared a little to get that kind of offset to fit nice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Flaring sounds a bit scary to me, but I guess it's a thing I have to deal with if I want 8" wide wheels at the back....Still, 40 profile tires could solve the problem and I could get through only with rolling?16x7" should be quite easy in front? I now have 16x6.5" and it's all good. Not sure about the ET for front though.Is the camber adujustable at back or is some kind of camber kit needed? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure about the ET for front though.Is the camber adujustable at back or is some kind of camber kit needed?You can't flare the rear much because of the rear bumper mount.I'm only running 7J's so 8's might be pushing it.I'm running 7J et20 all round and it's been a bit of work but it's worth it.Rear camber cannot be adjusted only way to do it is to chop the rear beam about not something i would ever want to do.

Glanza Mac Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 very tidy glanza! , those wheels looks awesome!, i wanted a set of rota drifts on mine but i did some research and it really does look good but i think it puts alot of stress of the front wheels i.e the cv joints etc, ive got a feeling you would be forever replacing them because they would be always popping out the joints. if your willing to sort it out everytime then go for it because it really does look good Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Actually I like more that 5 spoke look than 6 spoke in the Grids...I just changed all the four cv boots this summer, so I really know how it's done. Didn't enjoy it though! Luckily these glanzas are quite simple to work with, so if there are some downsides comming with cool wheels, maybe I'll just have to bear it. I guess that in 7" width there shouldn't be too much problems in the front? I'd just like to be able to fit 7 and 8" rims on before ordering anything!Any more experiences on wide rims under glanzas, anyone? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
whitestar Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share Posted November 7, 2011 Couldn't resist anymore so had to play with photoshop again. I've been checking where to find 16x8" ET20 grid drifts, but seems they all are ET10! I know they exist with ET20, but seems rare. :/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

whitestar Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share Posted November 7, 2011 Hiye mate, what is the exhaust like??? is it loud??DillerExhaus is a spot on! Not too loud at all. It has a very smooth and nice low tone. I really can recommend power getter to anyone, if you can find one for a reasonable price! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
whitestar Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share Posted November 7, 2011 oem front and rear lip and your sortedYeah, maybe! At least front defo needs something! Been thinking of making some sort of custom front lip, but OEM frontlip could be great too. Too bad it's hard to find Toyota OEM plastic ones anywhere! I'd like it better than the replica fiberglass one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
whitestar Posted December 14, 2011 Author Share Posted December 14, 2011 Tried again the next summers ride height with photoshop.I guess that's about 4cm lower than it is now. I'm planning to take the cuscos out and adjust the whole suspension again from scratch. Interested in seeing will the tyres scrape when lowered more. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
whitestar Posted December 14, 2011 Author Share Posted December 14, 2011 Also tried the same from different angle to see how near the ground the muffler will go. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

whitestar Posted December 27, 2011 Author Share Posted December 27, 2011 (edited) Cheers fellas! I personally like to keep it simple. Less is more and so on... ;)Went to see my baby today. It's good to give it a run in every few months. Took this short video of the exhaust.Fujitsubo roarI'm waiting for the summer SO much!

whitestar Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 (edited) Could get my hands on these:The size is 16x7.5".What do you think would it be worth trying? The price is a bargain and the condition should be good! I was thinking of painting the lip glossy white and the center matte black. Oh yeah and wrap them with 195/40 Falkens.EDIT: So the paint should looks something like this, only the centers matte: Edited February 3, 2012 by whitestar Quote Link to post Share on other sites
