Title: Toyota Starlet Glanza V
Post by: tech1889 on 16 March 2012, 16:04: Well some know me on here.. I bought this back in November time i think and i love it but i wish it had a german interior big time the squeeks and rattles annoy my passengers like hell but im used to it :evil:

Its a 1996 Toyota Starlet Glanza V 1.3 Turbo

Spec list so far -

walbro 225lph pump
ported exhaust manifold as standard has restriction
FMIC
blitz electronic boost controller
HKS turbo timer
HKS exhaust
HKS Air filter
HKS Adjustable fuel pressure regulator
HKS Fuel cut defender (non mappable ecu so cuts fuel anything over standard boost)
HKS speed delimiter not sure.. (standard limited to 112mph if people dont know jap cars)
HKS Adjustable actuator
Decat
Blitz DV
Exedy standard replacement clutch
Has a LSD box as a optional extra from factors
TRD Racing Leads
3 point rear strut brace as optional extra from factory
2 point front upper strut brace
RS-R 40mm lowering springs which are nice and firm which is good
2 bucket seats welded to standard rails (will be getting some proper seats end of summer)
OZ alloys wrapped in Toyo Proxes T1R's at the moment

Currently pushing about 180bhp (last dynoed 176 before pump and regulator) from my little 1.3 and theres more to come.. Hybrid turbos brand new are only £450 and capable of about 220bhp..

Believe it or not you can buy an off the shelf 300bhp kit.. some people have got 400bhp from the little engine :evil: :evil: my engine has hardly been breathed upon compared to those.. once the maintenance is sorted and because i will be commuting on the train soon i will have more money to make it better.. cage will be coming in the summer..

Honestly mate most fun ive ever had for a car once you get over the sh!te interiors of jap cars lol and parts are plentyful on most jap cars and cheap.. only problem glanza's are ALL imports which means some parts can be tricky to get hold of and expensive :(
