I just bought a Gloria as a replacement for my Cefiro. and am really liking it. so i thought i would post up some specs and pics

At first impression after having a Cefiro the Gloria is a quiter and smoother ride. the steering has less "feedback" but is still very direct the brakes are the same as the cefiro.

Interior: Brown velour and woodgrain(very plush)

features:

electronic

-seats

-climate control

-mirrors

-pillarless windows

-ariel

-boot release

-fuel filler release

-air purifier

infact you name it, it has it.

its the most pimpin interior i have ever seen in a jap car. it has about 15 interior storage pockets and the rear passangers have cigar lighters in each door and climate control.

Exterior:

Strange looking at first. like an 80's VIP cruiser and i guess thats exactly what it is. it could really do with some 18" rims. The style is dated but kinda kool.

The model i have is the "Grand Turismo" and its a VG20DET engine and a auto gearbox. The auto is very smooth and predictable you can hold it in a gear or ghange down with a quick foot stab.

the little engine is superb. it reves to 7k and delivers very linear ultra smooth power. i would estimate it puts out 115rwkw in standard form.

i suspect it has a strange twin wastegate setup more on this as i have time to investigate it.

this car was at UAS ? ....i remember seeing it on there website i think.....

its quieter than the cefiro??? ...holy crap ....i thought the ceffy was dam quiet .....

i thought about that car when i was looking for a new car but .....i couldn't buy another car with a brown interior ..........last car had a brown velour interior......ithought was very nice but seems to be a weak point in selling the damn thing....

cars looks good though!

hehe yeah i thought i would never buy i car with a brown velour interior but i really like it its so comfortable and i will be keeping it for atleast 3 years so in 3 years it prob wont be worth much anyway. and who knows! brown interiors might be back in fasion! LOL

nice cef11e nice.

gloria's are the ones that are pillarless right?

if so you need 20" rims and talk to kursed bout some air bags :D

nice set of air struts in that puppy and you will be straight pimpin!

GROUP BUY!!!

if you want 1990 luxury model, you should check out the nissan president... all the features of a Q45 and more automated pampering.

I know someone who has an '86 one, they were insane even then!

But those top of the line toyota things just axe them something chronic.

hehe really? where are u getting them from and how much?

i've pm'd you about them.

Did you find a set in 4 stud? I haven't been able to yet, I think if i get them i will have to get them redrilled to fit...

you wont get any dish on them whatsoever with the offsets available.

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
