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.

    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
    • Modern oils are amazing. Add tyres to that as well.
    • Probably a smart choice to buy one vs build, purely for the motivation part as you said! Imagine the metal dust everywhere from grinding all the steel to build one. Ha ha ha!   Also, post a photo of your garage.   Mine is below, this is where I've been cleaning and have already half filled a caged 6*4 trailer. And this is after my cleaning expedition mentioned previously... The middle normally has a car in it, but I'm dumping things in the middle as I sort through them. And poor skyline was dusty and has had the lightest few drops of rain and now it looks atrocious and needs to be dragged back out and washed thoroughly! And yes to the right is technically another bay, you really can only see 2 bays out of 3 in this picture.
