    The real joy in driving a turbo glanza is;
    1. Flat cornering
    2. Late braking
    3. Acceralation (it's light & turbocharged)

    My friend had a starlet Gt turbo running 204bhp and the other with a glanza running about 250bhp. I’ve spent plenty of time in both and both used to surprise other cars

    Some hi from Czech republic :)
    I have the same N/A version of 4E-FE in my current car... but its not a Starlet :D its a Corolla Compact E100 and in garage is sitting the 65kw version of it... just thinking about difference in head and engine block with 4E-FTE... already started to looking for turbo’d version... weight is about 1050kg but the rear is not that dangerous to slide away with sharp corners :)
    Happy to see this vid!
    I’ve already done full exhaust with WMSport back box
    Bigger 186cc injectors
    Still lack of power because i really want that turbo version :D

    Nice Video bro. I'm from Costa Rica, I have an EP91, it was originally a RHD but due to Costa Rica’s laws, were converted to LHD. I have around 2 years building this project and currently producing 310hps at 17psis. Come check the videos I have running in the track. The cars are simply a piece of Japanese History

    Hey bro nice proyect , just a quick question mine does the same with the temp, when revving hard (over 7k) it drops like if cold and then goes back up like urs. They've told me that its due to the thermostat but it actually avoids the car from overheating so should I change it ?? Nice vid by the way 👍👍👍

    • @zac8366
      @zac8366  3 года назад +1

      Nick Barnes There are very few Glanza's in Australia as they were never officially imported here. I believe in a few years they will be allowed to be imported and by then you will be on your full licence.

      Nick Barnes Mine is a Starlet life that has been converted to look like a Glanza. I believe you are mistaken about the amount of Glanza's in Australia. If you have a source suggesting otherwise please post it.

      Also, 205 rears make the rear stick and a gearbox oil change makes all the difference.
