Beat a glanza on the motorway

[Chico999]

Went for a wee cruise around edinburgh last night for the banter!

Cruised about harassing durty wimen!

Had my brother and my mate in the car, both wrecked!

On the way back, just got off the bridge on the way home, a red glanza was harrassing me, it was down to single land due to roadworks.

As soon as they finished he hammered it into the outside lane, so i put the foot down!

My brother decided it was a good idea to stand up out the sunroof and give him abuse lol

He seemed to be gunning it but didnt make it past?
We were side by side up to 75mph then i left him to it.

Surely a glanza is a wee bit faster than a vts?

[newpersn]

whats a glanza? lol

[Chico999]

Toyota starlet glanza

1.3 turbo

[Jaytee]

Your my hero.

[Chico999]

Your my hero.

Easy chap

Not trying to be anyones hero

All i was asking was if they were a lot faster than a vts

[OLLYVTS]

oh dear.

[0rang3peel]

did you have you're fogs on?

[JamieLee2k]

Even a VTR would beat a glanza

[Chico999]

Never really looked up about it tbh

Thought glanzas were a decent bit quicker

[goodall3518]

pmsl.


your car must surely be fitted with chipyes?

[Chico999]

lol

Im not a little racer mate, gave him a wee go on the motorway and seen he wasnt that much quicker. that is all.

[JamieLee2k]

I do know as the car gets older if it's not looked after properly it loses horses and that could be the cause of you beating it.

Or your car is just far better

[TU-Tuning]

Jesus fucking christ, whats with people being such saints on here? He was on the motorway ffs, wasnt gonna be elderly women and small children crossing the road now were there.

Glanza should have been faster in a line mate, theyre a bit pants round the twisties though

[JamesR]

+1 mate.

And arnt Glanzas 1.3 turbo? or am i thinking of a starlet?

[goodall3518]

for 1) its a 1.3 glanza, so hardly anything to gloat over.
2) racing in any kind boasting about it means your :homme:
3) he just admitted he broke the speed limit....

bai baiii:panic:

[mufcdouble]

glanzas aint that fast if they aint been looked after properley

[Chico999]

Broke the speed limit?

Went up to 75mph, most speedos are out by 5ish mph.

Calm down :bored:

[VTR-Chris-VTR]

Ive had a starlet GT Turbo the older style one

I got to say there bloody quick cars, would have a vts 0-60 but im sure the vts will stick with it after that due to the fact they have smaller engines etc.

[goodall3518]

Thank you!

just thought id point out the fact that you did break the limit, simply local police legislation allows you leeway.

bai baiii:panic:

1) Hes not gloating, hes asking wa gwan that he didnt get annihilated
2) See above
3) oooooo, 5mph over the speed limit? And on a 50ft wide motorway at night? Please

Whats the point of having a sporty car, or modifying a car, if you never use it?

If he had said he was racing through roads in public areas yeah Hed be a twat but he was just sayin he had a bit of fun with a guy on the motorway. Even old dudes do that. People on this site need to stop being saints and lighten up tbh its pathetic

How can you tell? His speedo said 75mph, but the clocks are normally out by 10%.

He could have been doing more, or could have been doing less. and come on, 5mph over? hardly excessive speeding is it.

diddnt say their saints, but if you have been watching the news recently about VAG forums you would have noticed people being done for "using a modified car" on quiet motorways.

just trying to prevent him from being told by someone else ;)

Thats the risk you take, and that wasnt mentioned atall before. Itll just turn into a page full of wonderful sarcy comments :bored:

[goodall3518]

well, sarcasm is my favourite ..... :D

[liam-o]

speed limits are only in place when there are police or cameras around, otherwise there more of an advisory :homme:

also, his brother was out of the sunroof, not a good idea at any speed... but sounds like a giggle

like some others said, his has probably been neglected and the horses have ran off

[JamesR]

very true,but then he put his foot down

Did he say by what degree he put his foot down? could have just tapped it briefly?

I am remaining neutral in this discussion anyway lol

I happen to think drving at over 70mph with a mate out of the sunroof is outrageously stupid, if you had crashed, he would of been mince meat.

Completely agree with that

But a laughs a laugh

[JamesR]

Completely agree with that

But a laughs a laugh

Sort of agree, but if the police had seen you, then you would have been fu*ked lol

70mph plus, in a saxo, on the motorway at night, with a drunken mate hurling abuse from the sunroof. The police would probably either be too shocked or pissing themselves to much to do anything :D

[Chico999]

lol aye true!

I put the padlock on the sunroof after that

It was retaliation tbf, i done it in his GTi about a year ago :oops:

[JamesR]

lol aye true!

I put the padlock on the sunroof after that

It was retaliation tbf, i done it in his GTi about a year ago :oops:

lol next you need to piss out of his sunroof on the motorway with a borat mankini on :D

[shooorn94]

Went for a wee cruise around edinburgh last night for the banter!

Cruised about harassing durty wimen!

My brother decided it was a good idea to stand up out the sunroof and give him abuse lol


Cruised about harassing dirty wimen/women? Mature buddy.

And whilst travelling at 70mph your brother unclips his seatbelt and stands out of the sunroof to give abuse?

Fair enough it was your bro but ask him kindly to put his belt on in future no matter how pissed.

The racing doesnt bother me, yes it's immature and yes it could have been dangerous but you didnt excessively do so or in a dangerous area so I respect you for that, but the other things make you sound a bit daft.

The glanza turbo, I'm sure its fairly even but I'm not geared up on most JC.

[Chico999]

loool aye thats next!

I bought him one for xmas this year, cost me a tenner and its still in the packaging!

Was going to take it to turkey and show off my body, all the turkish wimen love a hairy man in a mankini! or so ive been told......

[steviet]

ma mates 106 gti pissed all over one of they glanza`s. but i think some are auto`s aswell.

[JamesR]

No offense intended, but you would probably get done for indecent exposure :P

Cool, i agree mate

Harassing is an expression mate, surely everyone does this?
No harm done, just giving them a laugh

Next time i will do just that, afterall he unclipped his seatbelt himself and climbed out, how can i stop that at 70mph?

[shooorn94]

Cool, i agree mate

Mate opened the door when overtaking a lorry on the motorway, I punched him in the face and got the passenger in the rear to lock the door.

Had to give alot of apologies in the morning. Anything is possible if you put your mind to it ;)

[Ben]

I got followed other day by a Starlet. He was right up my arse so I purposely went 10mph under the limit to cheese him off. He then overtook me, so I thought I'd have a little play, he obviously went past me but not as quickly as I'd of expected.

Good call, nothing like a brotherly brawl.

We were side by side up to 75mph then i left him to it.

Sound like a bunch of late night yobs lol..

Glanza is a bit quicker, but not a massive difference, maybe he was quicker but not quick enough to make it passed safely, so he gave up.

[Chico999]

Lol not atall!

As i said, i left him to it, he accelerated alot more once i stopped

[shooorn94]

Jessssus! what the hell made him do that?

Alcohol and being insecure. Tbh I was more concerned for my door getting damaged (he was belted in). He had done it before in other cars.

+1 jazz.

[Chico999]

Insecure?

Does that mean he didnt want to live anymore so wanted to loup out the car?

[Tommo87]

Galanzas are poop. and yes some are autos.

[aran2k2]

Galanzas are poop. and yes some are autos.

glanza's are great cars faster and more relible than the vts. just to damn expensive for me at the mo.

[rossfisher89]

Jesus fucking christ, whats with people being such saints on here? He was on the motorway ffs, wasnt gonna be elderly women and small children crossing the road now were there.

lol not gonna lie i street race almost every night it's fun. raced a golf gti to canterbury tonight. pissed him accelaration and chucked it up inside on round about, but my vts top out about 138 and he left me for dead on motorway. was stunned didn't think gti turbo's were that fast.

[dougieph2]

arent glanza's bhp standard? tbh his glanza's probably not well maintained so aye you probably did give him a good go

[titchster]

Standard form they're about the same as a VTS, maybe a little slower, I find.


But admitting to racing/speeding on a public forum is a good way to get yourself in trouble with the law. ;) Hence everyone saying its a stupid thing to say.

[craig180]

Regardless of whether people think "racing" is ok or not admitting it on a public forum not only runs the risk of being black marked by the police but threads like this are the ones that give sax-p a bad image.

The title impies you were racing, which on public roads is illegal

IMO save it for another forum

[Bickerton]

Standard Glanza's from what i have heard and read aren't anything special, but, they can become a sick sick car with some tweeking.
Maybe you "beat" the Glanza as he didn't fancy breaking the speed limit to prove a point, also to an onlooker a guy hanging outta a sunroof shouting abuse is not a good look atall and more than enough to get a section 59, you would be the person getting it tho as is your car ;)
On a side note, i would happily take a glanza over a 106/saxo any day of the week

[craig180]

Bick obv likes big repair bills :p
That also poses the question "why do you have a 106 then?" :p

[Bickerton]

Bick obv likes big repair bills :p

Read the 1st page of my blog ;)

[Ashleyp]

glanza's are 130bhp standard iirc but weigh more than the Saxo

the GT verision is lighter with same engine therefore quicker

doesnt take much money to be running a LOT more boost (and im not just talking cheapo crappy mods to enhance performance but reduce reliability)

either way. gay thread and ibtl

[Mochachino]

standard, the vts is faster raced a few n seen a few race. Glanzas are always slower.

[Heliosphan]

There are so many factors that affect who wins a race. If it's a street race the winner is usually the person most prepared to kill themselves or someone else.

Glanza V is slightly lighter than a Vts (925Kg) and is about half a second quicker to 60mph. In the real world, you'll hardly feel the difference. Then factor in the condition of the car, driver skill and the difference becomes even more insignificant.

[MiniGibbo]

From my experiances this kiddy wasnt pushing 100%.

matt.

[Bickerton]

May have even been a basic model done up to look like a glanza ;)

[Heliosphan]

There's a non turbo 'S' model that looks identical iirc.

depends if it was still limited but they only 1.3 turbo.. street racing is for idiots aswell

[fossie]

Glanzas with a TD04 conversion from a Scoob are meant to be well quick.......

[willo-1]

they are tunable to well over 200 bhp

[Bickerton]

they are tunable to well over 200 bhp

Few close to 300 on the glanza site iirc

[willo-1]

hdi fmic td04 turbo hks acuater cams de-cat s/s manni, ect thair are many gt,s and glanza,s with well over that marc they just a lil delicate some times hence why we sold ours

[V5J]

bai baiii:panic:

someone slap his wrist for breaking the speed limit!


BAD.. YOUR SO BAD

this iswhat gets to me about this site sometimes... everyone breaks the speed limit all the time, doesnt deem us all bad drivers

[Ferg]

Had a play with standard GT Turbo and there wasn't anything in it. VTS is a wee bit quicker.

One of the lads I know has 183 BHP GT Turbo with uprated everything. It's silly quick.

[fossie]

Gotta be careful with them tho....... they have shallow sumps dont they, my mate blew his bottom end going round a roundabout to quick, lack of oil................ boom

Very very silly thing to do. Strapped in or not he could've broken his back if you'd had to brake. I also think it's actually illegal to have a drunk passenger in the front seat whilst driving.....prob for above mentioned reasons tbh.

[D4N91]

one of my freinds got a glanza (quite highly tuned) and that leaves vts' it is stupidly fast lol

[jimbo06]

Standard form they arent that fast and dont handle very well at all....spend a few quid though and they can become very quick indeed, so if it was a standardish glanza i would edge my bets on the vts but one with mods should be quicker on the straights

[Bickerton]

Fred off 106oc has a nice Glanza ;)

[jimbo06]

Fred off 106oc has a nice Glanza ;)

Yeh freds is nice, he's had it on track with the 106 owners iirc

[Mattymcn]

i lol'd 75mph breaking the speed limit on a motorway...

do your research lads, now who can tell me the speed limit on a motorway?

and before smart arses post yes it is 70..... +10% +2 thats 79mph.

hardly Breaking the speed limit. so everyone needs to chill out.

[saxoboy1234]

Taxi's drive around every weekend with drunks in the front ?

Matt.

[Bickerton]

Taxi's drive around every weekend with drunks in the front ?


Mebbe different as they are "professional" drivers

[Foxdog]

A Glanza turbo would shit all over a saxo.

Ive drove both and there is a big difference

Standard the things do 6.9 to 60

my mate has one and its unbelievable how tunable the things are, his now is on par with my other mates celica GT4.

To be honest i think everyone puts their foot down now and again but dont expect to be hailed with praise when you boast about breaking the law on a public forum, especially when you look at how many people die each year due to reckless driving and speeding :n:

[carlos7777777]

Mebbe different as they are "professional" drivers

not really.. there shit drivers...

i know a driving instructor who used to be a taxi driver, and when he went for his driving instructor course he failed about 4 times because he picked up bad habbits from being a taxi driver...

saying thats professional?

all taxi drivers do is a course, hardly professional...

also, thats like saying people who deliver for a chinese are professional drivers loool...

Not atall, had to take a proper dvla driving test to get my badge past that first time like i did my original driving test , did it for two years, no points on my license no accidents, drove as a van driver for Tesco for a few years after and had no mishaps or offences also none on the road in my normal car. Don't tar all people with the same brush, it's not nice

Smart arse. The speed limit on Motorways is a maximum 70mph, not 79mph.....

What in your little mind thinks 79mph is the new speed limit???

[louis_23]

Jesus fucking christ, whats with people being such saints on here? He was on the motorway ffs, wasnt gonna be elderly women and small children crossing the road now were there.

i agree with ben, if we all wanted to stick to speed limits or wernt gunna be tempted to put your foot down now and again when safe to do so we wouldn't be driving saxo's lol we would all be in 1.1's :y:

[MiniGibbo]

Smart arse. The speed limit on Motorways is a maximum 70mph, not 79mph.....

Your right saying thats not the limit but it is the cut off for what your allowed. If your crusing at 80 and not driving like a wang youll 9/10 get away with it.

If you start banging on about your allowed to 78.9* (is what it actully is) youll jsut get a ticket.

Matt.

That is really a common misconception. It's all down to the discretion of the offer that spots you going over 70. They are allowed to be discreet within boundaries, if they so wish but don't have to be ;)

If you caught one on a bad day and they caught you doing 71 on a motorway and wanted to take you court with conclusive evidence you would receive a 60 quid fine and 3 points

[titchster]

A Glanza turbo would shit all over a saxo.
No, not standard for standard they wouldn't.
Or if that's true, then there must be something wrong with the one's that only crawl past me, and yes, that's trying. A standard VTS pulls away from me quicker than a Glanza.
The reason they 'feel' quick is cause of the kick from the boost coming in.


Oh, and a Glanza is 7.1 to 60, it's the Starlet GT that's 6.9 to 60. :)

[JamesR]

Never thought that this would get to 5 pages long lol

Thought it would have been locked before page 2 :panic:

Well a couple of my mates had both a glanza and a VTS about a year ago and we had a session one night of setting up quarter mile drags with other cars we had,

Both cars had the exact same modification wise, coilovers and uprated air induction kits.

The VTS took off better, but there was really no competition after that, as soon as the glanza spooled it was off. It wasnt complete destruction but there was a good two car lengths.

My mates car is well maintained for a 1996, but no rebuilds.

i recently got my VTS, i wish his car was what it was a year ago as i would happily drag him as the VTS is fresh with only 40k on the clocks but since then he has front mounted it and turned the boost up with filters off the turbo and its just mental how fast it is, like i said he keeps up with my mates celica GT4 :L

with most old cars though its all about engine condition, But i would worry more about a Citroen engine wearing than a toyota imo

[goodall3518]

:homme: thread.....people pissing their pants too much.

[mattzsaxvtr]

vrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[naturally_dizzy]

some glanzas are shit, some vts's are good, simple as really. . .
my vtr keeps into my friends gt starlet cause its losing boost

[Foxdog]

:homme: thread.....people pissing their pants too much.

How constructive... :ponder:

[MiniGibbo]

A celica gt4 is not a gauge for speed.

There heavy, dosile, and 4wd.

There shit slow and handle like noahs ride.


Matt.

[dj_russell]

ive done one too, i was genuinely gobsmacked so was my mate driving his you know when you had your play did you find as he was changing gear coming off the boost you still had more to go in every gear and everytime he changed your car got more infront. these were also rolling starts i found up to 40-50 his was a little bit quicker then into 60-70 even stevens after that it was a bit of a blur(we wont mention how fast)

[turbomadvtr]

Smart arse. The speed limit on Motorways is a maximum 70mph, not 79mph.....

What in your little mind thinks 79mph is the new speed limit???

LOL i agree , if your asked in your theory test the speed limit the correct answer would be 70 , not 10 +2 - 10 %_2 )Pie A214 -10 = 79mph

Nubs !

[joshg_7]

*yawn*

[turbomadvtr]

*yawn*

Your bedtime already ?!?!

[olly_vts]

How long till this gets closed lol

[Olly]

ibtl, I was told by a 'office of the law' that an allowance of 10% of the limit is there for innacuracy within spedometers. Therefore if it says your going 70 in the car and your speedo is a little out them you shouldnt get a fine. However a family friend had a speedign ticket from a fixed camera for 31 mph. So as said its how the law is interpreted i guess. With officers on the road cant really go wrong with staying with the flow of traffic.

[Japman]

a glanza would beat you

he cant drive

you suck

[pkhardman]

glanzas are 1.3 turbo 136 bhp standard, but ther limited stanard to 105 til 115 mph unsure but ther defo limited..

you got anyfin done to the vts?

[HeathyGT]

tbf the saxo vts, starlet gt turbo arent that far diff 0-60 etc people seem to forget turbo cars get lag, there is also a lot more to go wrong and affect performance of a turbo car e.g boost leak fcuked actuator playing up, (not saying saxo's don't) he may even be running low boost due to engine work recently carried out (how many passengers did he have?) I play with cars and turn boost down on my avcr to 0.8 bar in my pgt just to see how much faster other cars would be (not taking anything from you hear mate) you're saxo could be uber rapid, but you will never know if he was trying or not unless you know that person you race ;)

[Mr_P]

Your right saying thats not the limit but it is the cut off for what your allowed. If your crusing at 80 and not driving like a wang youll 9/10 get away with it.

If you start banging on about your allowed to 78.9* (is what it actully is) youll jsut get a ticket.

It's 85mph on the motorway anyway. 79 on a national speed limit dual carriageway.

Tbh a std glanza vs a std S would be fairly even. Who gives a fek if he gave it a little on the motorway (i forgot everyone's a saint on here lol)

I had a Corsa VXR up my ass the other night tapping it forward making it dump then his passenger shook his fist at me and told me my car was shit.. they get in to the outside lane and i write them a new one whilst they are accelerating... (up to 70 of course because breaking the law is bad)

no, its how you drive.:bored:

[Ferg]

You were in the Focus yeah Jamie?

[James_Skylit]

Ill give everyone £10 who doesnt go over 70mph on a motorway on occasions, i go about 75ish because you get 10% and everyone in the middle lane is traveling in excess of 70mph anyway.

And if your on your own, empty motorway, early hours, no avg speedcameras, why not blow the old cobwebs out, people on here dont half bitch about speeding and yes speeding is silly but its a bit peti when its a few MPHs more on a dead motorway.. Come on saxp lighten up :)

[Japman]

we are all saints

and we never speed

hence why we buy fast cars

[vts_mad]

exactly who gives a shit if someone drives a car theve tuned up fast id be more concerend if someone drove a tuned car slowly

[Jamie]

Matt.

No Corsas are as std around the same/ slower than ST's

& mine isnt std its 280 bhp so i left it like a sack of shit lol

You were in the Focus yeah Jamie?


Yeh i was in my Focus, he tried to overtake and was being a prick and i owned it (immensely), sounded nice with the DV and exhaust or was that my car i was hearing haha...

Nah he defo had a dv and exhaust because he was reving it behind me in the middle lane and it sounded beefy and tshhhhhh tshh

lol @ Chris

[Bickerton]

Spose it's down to the recession?

[kenny]

some comments in this thread make me laugh.

its all down to driver and whats been done to the cars tbh. dont underestimate a glanza tho.

[ally-vts]

for 1) its a 1.3 glanza, so hardly anything to gloat over.
2) racing in any kind boasting about it means your :homme:
3) he just admitted he broke the speed limit....

bai baiii:panic:

1. its a GLANZA, the 1.3 non turbo version is called a starlet, the turbo is a starlet GLANZA

2. i dont have to race, i regularly take the roundabout at the bottom of my street about 90 on the wrong side of the road.. im not gay?

3. i usually only break the speed limit once on the motorway.. usually because i dont slow back down..

leave the boy alone god sake.. :homme:

[willgsi]

I agree with VTR Chris- They are quick cars. To pull away with two passengers and the extra drag of ure bro out the sunroof is impressive! Is your VTS standard? Ive raced a Glanza round the twisty stuff in my mates type r- and that stuck to our arses in the twisty stuff. Prolly had a hybrid turbo on it. Rapid them.
