Puddy Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 (edited) Hello from Ireland I have had a crashed glanza for about 4 years (written off) and was waiting to get a starlet to do a Glanza rep.and last week I finally picked up this beauty \/\/\/\/\/\/\/Yeah the bumpers are a different color but its all good its solid underneath and the interior is fairly mint. Also picked up some bubble lights before I even got a Starlet so had to put them in So anyway the plan is to keep it the purple/blue color, get the Glanza kit on, take lowering springs out of the Glanza and get them in, take bump strips off, underseal it and put Glanza interior in (I cant unfortunatly put the engine out of the Glanza in yet as I am only 17 ) Edited January 12, 2016 by Puddy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Puddy Posted December 31, 2015 Author Share Posted December 31, 2015 (edited) Also forgot to mention, needs door hinge and d/s door handle but thats handy enough. Edited January 12, 2016 by Puddy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rich-k Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Looks like a good base mate! Glanza rep will look great in that colour Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Puddy Posted January 1, 2016 Author Share Posted January 1, 2016 (edited) So today I had a fairly productive day.Jacked the car up,pulled the bumper off, pulled bump strips off, gave it a bit of an under seal and trial fitted the back bumper which I thought I might have troublewithSo I'm not sure if I'll have to get another or see if that one will do So then I let the car down, took the front off and put the Glanza front on Edited January 12, 2016 by Puddy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Puddy Posted January 12, 2016 Author Share Posted January 12, 2016 (edited) Another small update I got no radio with the car so had a small bit of trouble getting connectors for this but luckily my dad owns a scrap yard so I got one out of a Levin. So threw in a cheap Aldi radio and my cupholders from the Glanza. Edited January 12, 2016 by Puddy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
diller Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Looks good Puddy, keep it going now bud Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Puddy Posted January 17, 2016 Author Share Posted January 17, 2016 So put on the bootlid today (yeah thats it closed ) So I have an issue because I think its bent out of shape because the Glanza was crashed. I also have a dent that I never really noticed before But I think I'll be able to manage it. The wiring looks like a bit of a dick as well but will hopefully be easy enough to do. I will also hopefully be getting another back bumper tommorow (white) as the one I have is well....broken Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Puddy Posted March 15, 2016 Author Share Posted March 15, 2016 (edited) Had to deal with some family stuff recently so haven't given an update in a veeerrryyy long time. Got my back bumper sorted anyway Also picked up an STI exhaust but I think its a bit big I thought it was cool tho Picked up a boss (and kinda ricey wheel) last year in Beaulieu for 10 pound!!! when I was over.there The steering wheel will eventually be changed don't worry. Got these off Ebay as well. Thought they looked cool. I have ordered an armrest from England which I should get next week and a Starlet Hyper Rev from Japan which should be here in 2 weeks I hope So the plan is to get her sprayed over the summer all going well but short term the doors, wings, shocks and interior from the Glanza need to go in first.

Rich-k Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Awesome matey cant wait too see it all fitted Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Puddy Posted March 19, 2016 Author Share Posted March 19, 2016 (edited) So I fitted a Corolla intake yesterday and gave the rocker cover a quick clean. All I need now is a pod filter Also bought a set of Fox Alloys 15s. Which look way better than I expected They were €150 and they were freshly powdercoated so I couldn't really leave them behind me. My other Enkei alloys will be put away. I half fitted the back bumper as well \/ \/ \/ \/ Edited March 19, 2016 by Puddy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Puddy Posted April 14, 2016 Author Share Posted April 14, 2016 (edited) BIG update So I probably should have taken more photos but I didn't have much time to get stuff done. Firstly I had to strip the Glanza so that meant Doors, Wings, Shocks with lowering springs, Back box, Side skirts, Air filter, TRD Plug Leads and a few small bit. Sorry for the awful pictures, the shed was really dark and I only had the phone.. This was what was under the side skirt when I was taking them off Then it was the Starlets turn TRD leads in, Blitz Filter on. Engine bay is getting there. So then I took doors off, wings off, drilled two holes drilled through the pillars for the wiring for the electric windows So electric windows work after fitting module behind the clocks (thanks to a guide on this) Lowering springs in, Wings on and wheels back on. Its slowly getting there but it will eventually. Edited April 14, 2016 by Puddy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

5e colin Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 your car will have an isseu with nct now as there are no side repeaters on her kid as its mandatory on eu cars ere in the republic maybe they wont spot it keep up the good work Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rich-k Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Really??? That sucks about the nct! I used glanza wings on my uk spec here in the uk and it was fine because the indicators in the headlight stick out further and count as side repeaters! Could that not work in ireland?
