i got my friend into UC gundam, and she wants to broaden her

It depends on what she enjoyed really. If she liked the romance then Macross, Godanner or something like them would be a good recommendation. If she enjoyed the action, characters, designs or whatever though there's other stuff that would make better recommendations.

Getter Robo, Mazinger, Giant Robo, Votoms, Dougram, Patlabor and less /m/ stuff like LotGH and GitS.

Depends really on what she liked about it.

Everything? Well, any good show is a go.
Romance? Kawamori shows, Eureka,...
Politics? Geass, LoGH,...
Spectacle? TTGL, Gainax shows, Bones' works,...
Warfare? VOTOMS, Dougram,...
Comedy? FMP!, Nadesico,...

Imo, the main pillars of most mecha shows are the robots (designs, fights, animation in general), romances (usually cheesy but still present almost everywhere and fun) and either policitcs or ideologies depending whether it's more real or super-based.

Giant Robo: the Day the Earth Stood Still

Surely you jest OP. But if your friend is real then I suggest getting her into the shows that aired from the same era.
