Fresh Recruit
Hello everyone, Great site & thought i better join up & introduce myself here!!..![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I have been into JDM sports for a long time now..& hankered after a Pulsar for some time...unfortunatley most are either rotten & OR overtuned!!....( i have seen one immaculate for nearly thirteen grand!!..'i want what there on lol!'...:haha:
So ..last year i was sat behind this toyota ..Hmm what's that a Glanza V !?..quickly learned it was an EP91 & a jdm starlet?..but WOW a turbo vers?...bet there rare & expensive!! i thought...saw the car a number of times & got to like it more & more...even though every panel was dented..i thought it looked ace!!.
So i set about searching for one!!...i was suprised through the price range!! anywhere from 2.5~5K!!...Oh there not cheap
....& not very common like impreza's or even Mitsu Evo's...i really wanted a standard car.
But last week i played a blinder & won this little Gem off the O'l Bay!!..my own 1997 Glanza-V Turbo!!..Yay:rockon:....i think i got it real cheap & i'll let you guys guess what i paid!!....
Astonishingly it has only been in the UK for 18 months & TEN of those it was sat in someones garden!!...unloved
...
It came with 4 as-new Yokohama prada's!!..stainless TTE backbox..HKS mushroom induction filter...no radio, Trd alloys..undamaged!!..& some lowering springs 'don't know what brand yet?...
I picked it up 60 miles away yeaterday eve at chester & i switched it to low boost...its quite pokey & sounds like darth vader when you accelerate!!...awesome![Cool :cool: :cool:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
everything works & i was suprised for a 1997 car...its tight as a drum / no knocks, no pulling, st wheel straight & brakes are spot on...i was griinning like the proverbial cheshire kat last night bringing this home i can tell ya!!~
Here she is ..just popped out to take this for you folks!!:rockon:.
Happy days...
Today it sat at home in my drive & i will put it on the road at the end of the month...today i spent £200 on service kit, handbrake cables + rear pads n discs..still deciding on the grade of spark plug, i removed & checked a paggerd worn Denso PK20R11....folk are recommending NGK grade 6 iridiums?.
I also need the correct size battery...someone has fitted one twice the size & thrown the batt clamp away!!..lovely.
Also need a wheel brace & correct jack!!..
Tomorrow night i'll get home from work..have my tea & get it in the garage to service & prep for winter....it'll get a hefty dose of Waxoyle injected into her!!..
Cheers
