scutch0 Posted December 10, 2007 Posted December 10, 2007 have you got some braided lines with those discs mate? otherwise i'd say you probably wont feel alot of difference, as i did this on my n/a and was pretty dissapointed.good updates tho. Quote
keirz Posted December 10, 2007 Author Posted December 10, 2007 yeah i have the dave burwash braided lines front and rear. dont get me wrong im not saying they feel bad, im not really a big braker anyway and i never really pushed the standard brakes so i cant really give a good comparison. now the brakes are done, im moving on to the next phase which is suspension. ive got a bit of money saved for this but im not sure if i should buy it all now as i wont really benifit from it over the winter months what with bad weather.............so im thinking trd shortshifter, trd filter and maybe decat to keep me happy for a while.

Nanglebadger Posted December 10, 2007 Posted December 10, 2007 nice update man, tho i aint keen on the cusco sticker on the splitter but thats just me, im a fussy git so ignore my ramblings!!brake set up looks pretty damn impressive to me dude, the BMCS itself made a great difference for me. your winter month plans sound well smart too mate, im well happy with my shortshifter, they're a great piece of kit!keep up the minted work Keirz bro!!!Phil.

Liam_D Posted December 10, 2007 Posted December 10, 2007 The best sticker there is the 'i love beer' one. Seen it in the shop and had to buy it for him. Quote
keirz Posted February 25, 2008 Author Posted February 25, 2008 right things seem to be picking up pace on my glanza project, my trd panal filter and zep racing decat are on and the improvement is very noticable and i have no issues with creep or spike which is a bonus. my adjustable rear arb and service kit is in my bedroom ready to fit at some point. and anti-lift kit is in the post, and 4 eagle F1s are currntly being sorted so current spec list is..........chassis / handling:g reddy rear bracezep racing c pillar barunknown front braceperformance springs ( not 100% on make maybe cobra?)whiteline adjustable rear arb (still to fit)whitline anti-lift / castor kit (still to fit)15 " rota grids currently wrapped in fuldas but F1s on the wayBraking3g 20 groove disksmintex 1144 padsfront and rear braided linescusco bmcsenginehks actuatorzep racing decattrd panal filterngk spark plugsunknown bovelectronicsdigital boost guageg-tech performance meterhks turbo timerthats the list for now, but expect much more to come very soon as my next batch of parts are already in the process of being ordered. sorry for the update with lack of pics but i will get some soon. for now i will add these pics in here............keiran Quote
Sparky Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 Loving the pic with the graffiti in the background Good stuff, looking forward to the updates, AL Kit and Rear ARB is on my soon to do list I think Quote
Guest Enzo Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 sound mate you have some choice mods there, im sort of in the same boat as you mods wise but none of them fitted, need to spend a good solid day fitting them Quote
rob_bower Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 respect is due for you turning up on sunday kierz you didnt lok the best mate i hope your feeling better asap!! i know the feeling of having a ppile of parts too its on of those good but not great feelings!! lol Quote
keirz Posted February 25, 2008 Author Posted February 25, 2008 thanks, @ rob, i had to attend really because i know liam spent time arranging it. so plenty of pain killers and a scarf did the trick!the service is being done by my cousin one day this week maybe and then its a case of finding a spare bit of time to borrow the ramps to fit the rear arb, or i might even wait till i have the coilovers then wack it all on at once as well as the anti lift. Quote
Guest Enzo Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 id stick the arb on now bud if you can, it only takes an hourish if you have the right tools, if you do it this way then ul notice the gain where as the coilovers will mask the improvment Quote
keirz Posted February 27, 2008 Author Posted February 27, 2008 thats a good point enzo. i dont think im up to doing it this week though, bloody tonsilitus! Quote
keirz Posted March 18, 2008 Author Posted March 18, 2008 heres the current state of my bedroom due to not having time to fit my parts. rear arb and anti lift.trd panal filter and zep decat are now on.....as are my new rubber, eagle f1s all around........ also ordered and fitted an air diversion plate, (decal wasnt on there, i added that)i also have a package im waiting on delivery. i will keep that secret for now until it arrives and i have fitted it, my project is picking up pace.keiran Quote
StarletRick Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 get that roll bar on now mate, because youll cum everywhere once you realise how pro it is. Quote
Nanglebadger Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnice parts!Phil. Quote
keirz Posted March 18, 2008 Author Posted March 18, 2008 thanks, i think im gonna fit the arb on friday if the weather is decent. gonna try and do it on my drive on the jacks. i should be able to mark it up at ride height, jack it up to drill the holes. then lower and bolt together at ride height. look do-able this way so will give it a go.

Galliano Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 i like the air diversion plate mate! i plan to spray the paseo one and fit a small decal on it! copy cat Quote
keirz Posted March 30, 2008 Author Posted March 30, 2008 anti lift kit and anti roll bar are now fitted and i have got to say they seem to be worth the money and have improved the handaling a fair amount.also my secret package arrived and i wasted no time in fitting it...............im very suprised at the minamal lag, bumper is still not on as trimming it was a bit of a pain in the arse, plus my dremal exploded! so gotta run with no bumper for a while until i get time to sort it.

SiCaln Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 loving that panel and sticker mangood work on the other bits Quote
Sparky Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 Looks sweet but my mate got pulled for no front bumper after fitting his FMIC on his rover derv so be careful Quote
scutch0 Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 ace mate.whats the fit like? is it as good as was made out? airbox etc? Quote
keirz Posted March 31, 2008 Author Posted March 31, 2008 class mate, didnt even have to move the airbox at all.all that is required is a bit of cutting of the slash guards and the bumper, which is a bit of a pain in the arse on the bumper but the kit is very good.also there is pretty much no lag at all, a little bit of a pressure drop in boost but that can be just acounted for with a couple of extra turns on the hks actuator.all in all a good bit of kit and i will get more pics when the bumper manages to fit back on.

scutch0 Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 awesome. sounds like just what i need.what are you doing about a bov? where is the bov attachment? Quote
