R34GTt Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Hi,Hope everyone's well! I recently purchased a starlet Glanza V about 2 weeks ago to replace my Skyline R33 GTS-t which I'd had for just over 2 years. The cost of running the Skyline was apparent as soon as I bought it, so I purchased a runabout Astra to use mainly for work and the Skyline for whenever I felt the urge. After 2 years of owning both the astra and Skyline and having to splash out on insurance twice per year aswell as tax and maintanence, I decided to sell the pair and decided to go for a Glanza V due to the fantastic power to weight ratio and better economy than the skyline (obviously) which gives me my performance fix and also cheaper fuel bills etc! The Glanza is pretty standard at the moment, only having the JAM front splitter and a Jap aftermarket gearknob and set of wheels. I'll probably only go down the exhaust, air filter and *possibly* atmospheric dump valve route along with a set of wheels and suspension as I don't want to go crazy with this car.Anyway, here's a couple of piccies. And some of the old faithful:CheersElliot Quote Link to post Share on other sites
