Hello all, ive mainly been on themgzr over the last 6 months or so but remembered I signed up here once upon a time! Thought id get some pics up of the progress on my ZR 120 so far

A quick one as it was to start with:



And then the stripping out / refitting began!

















Thats how it sat for a while untill I managed to get hold of the centre console and window switch panel (kudos to Fast Alan!) which is on the p*** in this pic.




Trophy lights and rally mud-flaps also added:, although the flaps are a bit off centre, refit probably needed




Wheels refurbed and powdercoated in shadow chrome thanks to wheelfixit:




Cheeky shot with a mates A3 cabrio:=p:




Armrest fitted and replica BRM lid added, not 100% happy with it yet need to refit really



And a new manifold heat shield and BMC CDA added this weekend:



And thats all to date!




Next up are BRM door cards and some Janspeed goodies, and sorting out the bloody tappetts which are doing my head in! Other than that maybe an incar PC and a brake upgrade. Cheers for looking!

Quick update although not much has changed recently. Had to rebuild the drivers side front brakes as they had seized up and were pretty knackered, also replaced all tappetts following replacement head gasket. Runs so quiet now!

Only visible change is a bit of engine bay work, nothing major but worth a cheeky shot




Got a mk2 rear wiper arm, next task is a good clean and polish, tonnes of scratches to get out!

Havn't been on here for ages, but have made a few other changes to the Zed. Replaced all the tappetts before Christmas so shes running smooth as anything now, and made a few cosmetic changes mainly the MK2 rear wiper conversion.

Main new piece of kit is an in car pc. Was originally planning a double din conversion but really couldnt be bothered with all that work! Went for a flip out single din Lilliput monitor mated to a windows based pc. Best thing is the iPhone capabillity, airplaying songs soooo much easier than getting songs on the hard drive:

Sorry for the naff pictures, sun was making life difficult!



















Also had a couple of emulators (playstation 1, megadrive etc) running using a wireless Xbox 360 controller (also in red!) for an ultimate geek fest!
