jake44 Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 hi guys,I've just gone and got myself a white glanza. I can honestly say its awesome and i love every minute of driving it! it's not quite as fun as my mk2 escort but thats a bit too much fun for everyday use! I'm a massive old skool ford boy at heart but jap has always been a secret love affair, although this is my first jap car.anyway onto the new vehicle!i'm not 100% sure on whats been done to it but its got FMIC, HKS FCD, its on coilovers of some kind, mtt wheels, decat, all the usual stuff.I do need some advice though, my passenger side cv knocks when i turn, whats the best idea? second hand driveshaft or brand spankers cv?The guy i got it off was also good enough to give me the tubular manifold he had just got for it, so that'll be on soon.And just a few pictures for you. Only the top one is mine, the rest the previous owner sent me Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Danza V Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 (edited) Your the guy that drove past me on A10 i was walking a husky dogs you looked at me lol... that was wednesday nice ride!
