Moonbox's Glanza V!

[Moonbox]

I know its not RWD but i hope to get some sort of nissan after this was just to fill the gap for a while, id love a ps13 or 180sx. After only driving a 180 once about 2 years ago it got me hooked! Had to get something jap again after crashing my evo in mondello and had 2 kangoo vans in about 4 months and they both blew up! Absolute nightmares... Heres how my poor evo sits presently:



Well picked this up on 2nd November, didn't really plan on doing anything to it... That didn't go so well!

How it looked when I brought home, needed some tidying and a new windscreen...


Did few bits, amber indicators, secured intercooler (although still crooked)
Alarm & Immobilizer with secret button start, tried to sort out botched radio connections but didnt get finished!
Gong to wrap the fogs yellow but cant find my roll of film anywhere!
Also ordered sticker bomb sheets for radio/air con surround...

Feckin cat loves my cars!






Tinted Fogs






Wired in new standard radio harness all soldered and tidied up (was a disaster in there!)
Radio Mounts
Flare & Holder
Boot Liner
Relocated Air Filter
TRD Anti Roll Bar
Blitz Decat
Rear Optional Strut

About to tackle wiring


Quick pic of Optional Strut Brace (With All Plastics) Fitted


Got bored and just did this (Hated The White!)

[Moonbox]

Spent about 5 hours installing rear speakers (The Right Way)
Wires run straight from the connector behind radio,
Used a plug at the edge of shelf so can easily be removed when needs be.









Sorry about last pic, ive had iPhone 5 for about three days and already giving me trouble! The stupid flash is out of sync with the camera...

Picked up a genuine set of Watanabe RS Eights...
And perfect deal as they have brand new tyres on them!




Dying to get them on the car but wanna do them perfect so bought new bolts all round!






Bought a Kakimoto cat back (Will Fit After NCT)
Pressed plates from A-Z Tuning
Neo Chrome Gear Knob




Just back from scrapyard again with few goodies


And missing crash bar, bonnet catch and cable


Tasty new wheel


Mounted IC properly...
Before (hanging off) and no crash bar


Now:


Just gave a nice wash & wax, sorry not good photos but she cleaned up well!








Got a set of wind deflectors, another steering wheel and Blue Recaro from Dec106...


HKS Boost Controller



HKS Fuel Cut Defender


Sard Fuel Pressure Regulator

Painted Rear Strut & removed plastics for a different look! Might go against what people do but I like it.






Recaro in!




Just did a quick mock up of the gauges.


The HKS stuff will be going in place of my ash tray, cigarette lighter and cup holders. I will relocate cigarette lighter down a bit as need it for sat nav!

This is a quick mock up I did, will do it properly tomorrow and then when my SLD arrives and I pick up AFR & HKS actuator during the week im sorted!

Boost Controller will be mounted in slot below it, will be cutting that out tommorrow.


The electronic valve for B/C was looking a bit tired so gave it a spruce up earlier aswel...




Carbon Keys


Brand New HKS SLD


Also fitted new siren to alarm and a few other little safety features

Picked this adapter up for my gauges for 10 quid!


Defi Style Carbon Gauge Pod From Evo For Dash.


New Clocks:


Mileage:


Exchange:


End Result:


New Breather


HKS Adjustable Actuator


Cut out hole to mount B/C, looks very tidy I think!




Also printed out some material I will need as plan on installing all the gauges, b/c, fpr, sld, etc. at the same time so I can set it all up properly!

Fitted OEM front lip yesterday



Its down getting polybushes put into front wishbones as i just didnt have the resources to fix them the current ones are in a state!

Going to my dads mate Billy Crosbie in town who runs Auto Exhausts and he does top work, hes letting us use the lift on sat to fit exhaust, decat, starter motor, new half rad, adjustable actuator fit all gauges, b/c etc. and bore out 3rd cyl on mani as its quite restricive.
