Decided I needed some time off from working today and fitted these - quality bits of kit! :)

 

A bit fiddly to get the accelerator pedal to fit, but got there in the end.

 

That's almost phase 1 of the interior blinging done - just need to get a Z Centre gearknob and a handbrake handle cover before moving to phase 2 - the Z Centre leather kit, some white dials and maybe an aluminium kit.

nice :cool:

ZCenter Gear knob? The prototype was developed by myself and Martyn(Nomad racing) As no one had ever done a Zed specific gear knob for our cars and I wanted something abit special,Martyn and I came up with this idea,around at his house one afternoon.My old stock knob was the basis for the thread size and overall chunkie feel,the Z logo was a pic off my car and Martyn and his engineer worked on the gate and three ringed grip design.When the first one was made I test drove it on my car for a couple of weeks to see how it stood up to being in use.It was found to be great in feel and weight and I was well chuffed with it.It then went into production for the world market. I hope you like it .........Vinz

Excellent stuff Vinz - my mate Metalwop has one on his poorly Z and it looks fantastic (although I've only seen photos).

 

How about designing a Z handbrake handle cover? Maybe with the Z logo on the release button - sometimes just knowing it's there is as good as seeing it :rofl: ;)

Thanks Mujina,check out me ride pics(interior)Is that the kind of handbrake you mean.Now that was a pain to do :hyper: I think it was one off an MG which I altered to suit.

Yeah mate, that's exactly the kind of thing I'm after in mine. How much hassle was it to alter to fit?

The stock hand brake lever is a square profile which you have to make round to fit the hole in the new handle.A lot of vice squeezing and grinding plus you have to take out the linkage for trigger mechanisim and make good with a bolt with a coach head other wise it will fowl up.The button release has to be modified also.A spare hand brake is a must have incase the worst happens.Like I said a pain to do :rolleyes:

And they say you can't get a square peg in a round hole...

 

Hmm, that sounds like rather a horrible job - thanks for the heads up before I started on it :)
