Had a little bit of free time yesterday at work so started doing some bits on the zed project!

 

Removed the rear spoiler - should knock about 0.5 sec of the 0-60 time with the weight saving! :biggrin:

 

 

Pic of the nasty rust hole!

Pics not great quality as taken on my iphone!

 

Need to buy myself a spoiler as a xmas prezzie now!!! :santa:

spot on mate, it looks great, its amazing how a set of wheels can easily change the appearece of a car

Bloody gorgeous! You lucky sod :D

Thanks guys :)

 

Still loads to do!! But at least its drivable - just cant take anyone out in it cos Im doing the passenger seat leathers!

Stunning mate just stunning. You have built a really nice car :drool:

I wish mine was this colour :( Stunning looking car mate, very jealous!

looks stunning mate,

 

the rears look spot on, if anything you could go out a bit on the fronts and perhapse very slightly lower all round. the wheels look great though as does the paint

Very nice, the new wheels are much better.

Looks absolutely stunning, wheels look perfect on her

jaw dropping paul... you must be one proud puppy!

Its going back tomorrow for buffing & polishing - outside will be pretty much done then! :)

 

Interior to finish next!

Looking proper nice. Loving the colour and the wheel choice. Those bigger wheels almost give it the deceiving looks of a shorty. Really handsome looking Zed, and has been said already, a credit to you.

cars looking lovely nice choice of wheels i put a set of the jade r on my silver z 3 years ago and they still look good today

Lovin the car paul, its mint, Im glad the Jades suit the car and 19s arnt too big as that was one of my worries, Top job fella

Finally got round to finishing lots of jobs this last week!

 

Refitted wheel arch liners, undertrays etc under the vehicle.

Rebuilt the interior today - all boot trims, rear side trims, rear seats back in etc

Removed the RLTC adjusable controller & LED from the stick on box & fitted it nice & neatly in the dash trim next to the clock - looks much nicer.

 

Drivers seat to retrim next week & thats the interior done! :)

 

HID's still to fit

Engine to go in at some point!

May get around to upgrading the ICE at some point - have 2 subs & an amp at work that I have been meaning to fit for years LOL!

 

Been enjoying driving it again! T tops off the last couple of days! :D

Ah crap - I wondered why it was such hard work! LOL!

 

My engine is running quite sweet actually! My turbos were smoking before I took it off the road but after 2 years of standing they dont appear to be smoking at all anymore!!

 

bought a freshly built engine with uprated tubs, injectors etc sitting at home waiting to go in

Wow - that's looking superb Paul.....:bow:

 

Seeing your blue ZX with a 99-spec front; and CarMad selling replica 99-spec bumpers for £260 is giving me ideas.......:whistling:

 

No, no - I must resist; no more spending now my new SLK is on its way......:death:

thanks, patrick

 

275/30R19 rears

235/35R19 fronts

Thanks!

 

Would you think, 295 rear are too big?

Would like to get the jade for my lady too B-)

Thanks!

You could probably fit them but even my size tyres run very close to the wheel arch - I had to run a bit more camber on my rears to tuck them in.

 

I was also considering adjustable lower arms from driftworks to reduce the rear track slightly.

 

:)

Thanks!

I know this is an old thread, but I have to say, very sexy looking car! I can't quite make out those wheels, what are they?
