AdamB Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Same engine bar some sensors. The early GT engine has thicker rods which are supposed to be better than the glanza rods. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jay angus Posted June 1, 2013 Author Share Posted June 1, 2013 yh thats what i have read so could i just drop the engine staight in? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Yep they both use the same mounts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kyle_R Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Yep I just did this with my gt as a ringland failed (not uncommon) and all I had to change was temp sensors my gt has 2 glanza has a blank but if you buy another engine and look at each 1 water pump end you will see the difference and know what has to be changed. Piece of cake tho tbh. And me and my mate are only small chaps (10 stone) each and about 5"8 maybe abit taller and we lifted them out and in by hand. Easiest engine to work with as so light Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 I used a '98 spec V engine in my GT, just keep the thermostat housing from your Glanza and swap that onto the head of the GT engine ( if you get one ) and everything should plug right up As above, lift it in, cranes aren't needed for FTEs haha.

MARC MOSS Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Fits the same everything is the same bar a sensor or two Quote Link to post Share on other sites
