Hi

 

Live in Portsmouth just getting a lovely ZX TT as a project car to do work on over the winter months with a friend :eek:. Will be asking a lot of questions as it will be the first project car we have ever done.

 

I want to get the engine out and go the whole way with it! then complement it with everything else possible on the car. Its such a great car and IMO you can just keep adding to it. :rofl:

No you can't. There's a point where you can just go waayyyyyy too far! Too many people go that route! Many ruined/ugly Zs out there. lol

 

Welcome and good luck. :)

The externals of the car I will leave alone as it looks very sharp as is. Just really interested in what we can do with it performance wise for a bit of fun. I was going to get a Supra but just love the look of these cars.

 

Will be trying to get to about 5-600 BHP I think its about 380 ATM

On another note I cant believe what good value for money these cars are, I am buying a more expensive one (collect it monday) but I still think its great value. The seller reccomended this forum.

Good question I dont know... sorry all my cars have been done by garages and I never asked the question!!!.

 

My Porsche 911 TT is 680 BHP and was specialist tuned from new it has uprated turbos and had a re map etc. The reason we bought this ZX is because its not so risky doing a 5K car when it comes to making mistakes and you can do most of it yourself for some fun. I have never had a Jap car before but I know they can shift as one took me out in my Ferrari 360 F1. I pulled up at the lights and told him I was running a new clutch in, but TBH I gave it everything and was so ashamed lol.

 

My Porsche on the other hand is the fastest thing I have ever driven, wipes the Ferraris ass and has never been beat yet on the road.

 

How do you post pics on here?

This is the car I am buying on Monday, the seller sent me lots of other pics and its exactly what I was after for Starters. I can just focus on doing the mechanicals, rear brakes and further improvements to the suspension. Its very exciting having something you can mess about with yourself!...

Its a nice car and he seems to be a really nice bloke. It was clear on the phone that he was a genuine guy and an enthusiast and has been very helpful regarding what else can be done to it.

 

It is exactly what I wanted as a starter car, something that is already nice that you can throw some time and money at to get the BHP up.

Is Z1 somewhere I can buy all these bits from? if so can I have the web address. I want to get a load of stuff sorted as soon as I have a proper plan about what can be done. I was thinking of getting the engine taken out to 3.2 then cryo treated and take it from there. Anyone come to mind for doing that?

Click on the top right of the screen mate, its Z1's banner and will take you straight to their website :cool:

 

Disclaimer - its sometimes advertising Adrian Flux, but refresh or whatever and Z1 will be there lol :D
