Idrees Posted February 21, 2009 Author Share Posted February 21, 2009 Finally here are some new pics with the new wheels on.After a well deserved wash..Nice new bonnet..I have a load of brake upgrade parts to go on but I just can't be bothered in this weather! I'll get some pics up soon though and some proper updates.I'm also gathering 'Stage 1' 4EFTE parts. :surrender:And I still have a little list of exterior things to be sorted:Get some new bonnet pins and fit them (going to be scary drilling in to that carbon) :drunk2:Respray rear bumperPaint and fit ducktail spoilerGet rear screen tintedRespray the window surrounds properly and fit the deflectors properlyMesh front bumper (not sure yet but I'll see what happens) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SiCaln Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 looks very smart on those man, cool update Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ste91 Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 More new wheels lolBut they do look quite good, I don't usually like black wheels but it goes well with the rest of the car, the black wheels/tinted windows/CF bonnet really set off the yellow.One thing I have always thought with this car though is maybe late spec Glanza rear lights might look better than Reflets.

Idrees Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 No wheels as of yet, something a bit better.Anniversary Update - Almost Turbo Time!!After two years of ownership I am now starting to gather parts to do a full Glanza engine conversion along with running gear. Here are a few parts I've got my hands on so far..4EFTE Engine and C52 GearboxGlanza driveshafts, hubs and brake set up..Kakimoto Exhaust System. I will only be using the piping off this and get it welded to my 5Zigen Fireball backbox because I love it!HKS ActuatorFMIC Piping. This is for the GReddy FMIC I have lying about, although it's looking a bit grubby. Might go for a new core.Sard R2D2 BOVCusco BMCS. This will get a refurb along with many other engine bay components.EARL's Braided Brake Lines and Toyota 5.1 FluidEARL's Braided Clutch LinePlenty more to come.

Craig_N Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I think you should keep the kakimoto exhaust system and sell me the 5Zigen Fireball backbox Only joking mate nice updates idrees carnt wait till engine is in.Craig Quote Link to post Share on other sites
