My Car's Life...In Pictures.

[GeeUK]

Hello guys,

I won't bore you with the spec list, its too big! But there are some rolling road print outs amongst all of the below B)

So...when I first bought my Glanza, it started out like this (Don't laugh):

It came off the boat with some crappy side skirt, dodgy jap rusting exhaust, HKS filter, fuel cut defencer, HKS springs and Razo light weight 14" rims.

Well, next came along:

FMIC, Buddy Club 15" rims, D2 coilovers, rear struct brace, stainless steel exhaust including decat, uprated discs and pads amongst other things:

Things were OK for a while. I went through a few stainless manifolds, ran 1bar on the standard CT9 turbo.

I then hit a wall, crusing in the countryside at 3mph, lol. I was on low beam! Smashed some of my bumper, a fog light and water bottle.

So, out came the fogs, new water bottle in!

After stripped the interior, I thought: "Why do things by halfs?" and the car ended up like this!

Complete stripped out, no carpet and back to 14" light weight rims!

Well, as time went on and miles got higher, I eventually blew the thing up, lol. Bent a rod:

Nah, I dont do illegal street racing :twisted:

[McPikie]

What's the difference between the starlet and the glanza?

[seanofnp]

Glanza V is far better looking :P

[GeeUK]

The are both Starlets, but the shape previous to mine is a EP82, mine is EP91 and yes better looking.

Glanza V - Looks better, more refined, extra blade on turbo to aid spool, lighter engine internals.

GT - Lighter, uglier.

[Justin..]

Glanza S .... just a plain stupid idea lol

[GeeUK]

Glanza S is same as V without the turbo :D

[northy]

love it gee - do u fancy doing oulton park on the 10th of feb with us ???

[Justin..]

[david932]

very nice pal, 8) have been tempted by these a few times, how much do u save imorpting it urself as opposed to buying one here?

[GeeUK]

love it gee - do u fancy doing oulton park on the 10th of feb with us ???

Tempting.

In the middle of an engine build at moment, not sure I have the cash :cry:

How much is it? Is it open pit lane or 20min sessions etc?
