Scottyboy Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 How to tell if you have a proper glanza or not There must be differances between the 2 cars? Quote
Aamir Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 One way which I know is by folding the rear seats over and checking if its possible to bolt a 3 point rear strut brace in, because the UK spec Starlets don't have the two holes in the boot to bolt the 3 point rear strut brace.Other things are-Rear axel, drums or disks? -Front brakes are bigger on Glanzas..-Check underneath the car to see what the exhaust is hanging on? The rear engine mount or the actual car (on a Glanza it's beneath the gear shifter and on the Uk spec its further up.And there are other things like-wing mirrors-Bumper support bar(I think) -UK specs don't have ABS I don't thinkMust be lots of other minor differences too Quote
Jamie5414 Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 HPI check Then check VIN against that on the car Quote
Scottyboy Posted February 22, 2014 Author Posted February 22, 2014 I'm sure the ex is in a different location to no? Ecu* Quote
ryan lang Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 where the fuel filter is positioned is another if its high up the firewall its uk, if its low its a glanza Quote
TrisK Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Length of the vinImport vins are shorter. And will start EP91- Quote
TurboTobz Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 If your car makes a psghhhhhhhhh sound or a pshchacha slide kinda sound Any of the above confirms you may have a glanza Any of the above confirms you may have a glanza Quote
daniel_g Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 4EFTE stamp on the firewall.On the plate thing. Quote
Liam_D Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 That's the easiet way to tell ^^ Check the vin plate if it says 4efte then it's a glanza if it's 4efe then it's a UK. Pretty sure the uk specs don't say Toyota factory of japan on them either?! Quote
Scottyboy Posted February 23, 2014 Author Posted February 23, 2014 Dd they make a light weight glanza As I've no electric windowsNo Central lockingNo absNo sunroofNo electric mirrors Quote

daniel_g Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 P-Spec aka poverty spec aka lightweight. Do you have Glanza pattern door cards still but with holes for manual windows ? Quote
daniel_g Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 Yeah i gathered that, i ment do your door card trims have a Glanza pattern like the seats or are they a dodgey N/a door card ?Anyway it sounds like you have a factory P-Spec Glanza, theyre not many about Quote
Scottyboy Posted February 23, 2014 Author Posted February 23, 2014 It's got shitty door cards on the front with holes in the door cards for speakers but no holes in the doors haha I'll need to source a set of cards does that mean she might be worth a little more lol Quote
daniel_g Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 Have you checked the stamp on the firewall to see if it says 4EFTE ?If it is a P-Spec it just means the origional owner was tight and didnt want electric mirrors etc. Or wanted a lightweight model lol. Quote
Scottyboy Posted February 23, 2014 Author Posted February 23, 2014 The original owner must've bought it for go and not show lol I'll get now Quote
daniel_g Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 Sound so means you have a P-Spec Glanza then.Not worth any more or less really, a Glanza is only worth what its worth depending on the mods, condition etc Quote
