Flex Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 Wow, lots of work gone into the toyota! Good luck with the Z! Quote
buster Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 hi and ,i can remember saying those exact word when i bought mine....believe me it is futile to resist the modding :lol: Quote
LRF4N Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 After that much work on one car and joining this forum..... There's not a chance your zed will be kept standard Quote
Humpy Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 Welcome to the forum Think we should start placing bets on new members who say they will never mod and end up spanking the cash on mods Quote
WhackyWill Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 Lovely Car...Is the Glanza 4x4 ? :sun: Quote
tc350z Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 and great choice on colour & leather, ive got the exact same Quote
keiran D Posted January 29, 2013 Author Posted January 29, 2013 i will try to resist for as long as possible, some gun metal rays would be nice though. Glanza was front wheel drive, you can get a 4 wheel but they are non turbo, there are a few high spec coverted 4 paws about though Quote
Paddy78 Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 i will try to resist for as long as possible, some gun metal rays would be nice though. It's already too late... Quote
keiran D Posted January 29, 2013 Author Posted January 29, 2013 alloys are not modding in my eyes, especialy when they are an optional extra wheel....... Crap im already moving through the spectrum, refusal to mod, denial, whats next anger and then exceptence! Quote
smudgedon Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) Great upgrade, I cannot STAND Glanza's! Horrible little tin cans! I appreciate some of them are pretty rapid, but just EUURRRGGHHHH Glad you got a proper car Edited January 29, 2013 by smudgedon Quote
keiran D Posted January 29, 2013 Author Posted January 29, 2013 but a tin can with almost 300bhp per ton and full boost by 3000rpm with all the supporting mods to put it on the ground makes for a very fun car. On a practical lever it was lacking and there are plenty of bad examples of cars and owners to give them a bad name. So i understand but driving it would change your mind im sure! Quote

I'd rather have a nippy, comfy cruiser than a rocket powered rollerskate Quote
keiran D Posted January 29, 2013 Author Posted January 29, 2013 me too now i am a married man and a little older! It was my daily drive and you cant use all that power on the roads very often Quote
brillomaster Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 mmm would love the comedy value of a 220 bhp 850 kg car... would be so fun messing with other drivers who would hugely underestimate you! Quote
