So today my carpet came back alot cleaner than it left thanks to fordie_glanzaV, so carpet is back in and optional mats in aswell, a few little nigly bits left to do on the interior( i.e source a driver mat, drivers seatbelt, trd gearknob), so im off to spain for 3 weeks on 22nd and when i return i will be starting the exterior, i have sourced a 98 spec front bumper and wind deflectors already and when i get back to the uk i will be ordering a glanza S bonnet, some eyelids and a 98 splitter and blue tinted fogs. Also i will be then looking at a rear splitter and to finish off a livesports spoiler. So this is the last update for a while and am excited to get started on the exterior =D



I apologize about the pictures was on my phone :D

i used to work with vinyl n shit, what you do is cut it to the shape of the window on the outisde, soak the inside with water and stick the film on and literally just heat shrink the tint then peel it off without it sticking and bosh it on as normal, was a right pain in the arse to the point where we stopped tinting and just carried on vinyl wrapping instead -.-

Havent updated in a while, kind of lost love and patience with the car atm so havent touched her since christmas as ive been too busy but picked up a forged lump for good money last weekend and got it sat in the bay, still lots to do before shes anywhere near being started though. Well heres a picture as she stands now after a quick clean

Also anyone able to tell me which of these is a 98 indicator as they are both different so im guessing one is a clear lense on a 96 back

What parts do you need? I looked for that indicator and only have a orange one left, and got about a million glanza bolts in a pot if you still need some lol

Managed to get flywheel bolts and gearbox bolts now bud, still looking for indicator been through all the jap auctions and they are all driver side!! Mainly just need pipes and bits to plumb the engine in, then turbo kit, clutch, driveshafts, intercooler, discs and pads, boost guage, rrfpr and lots more, but if you happen too have a fuel rail banjo bolt in there it would be awesome...
