Mods are - Full stainless (cats out) exhaust Blitz induction Greddy Profec boost controller Switchable ecu (on the way) Aftermarket I/C's HKS bov's Seperate oil cooler for auto box Grounding kit Stainless slam panel Hard pipes........+ engine dress up parts, not going to list all! When it comes to components, its easier to say what I haven't replaced. 9/10 they were working fine but I replaced with new anyway- Heater matrix PTU AFM TPS Temp sensors Injector & coilpack connectors radiator viscous fan and coupling fuel pressure reg battery starter motor elec fan New OEM shocks AVO progressive springs poly bushes Brembo discs Porterfield pads INTEROR SPARCO steering wheel & pedals Silver clocks with chrome speedo rings double pod A-pillar Stainless door sills/scuffs silver console custom mats Sony mini disc ......I'm getting bored but you get the idea.....its quite modded! LOL.

Start modifying it?????? You mean engine wise? Interior? Both are sorted with more goodies than you can shake a stick at. Not putting anymore vents in, I want it pretty subtle. Anyway the whole bonnet would have to be painted again!

Thanks again everyone. I'm pleased you like it. Alex........they are on the way!!

Thanks everyone for the kind words. I'm afraid there will be more pics the next time the sun is out!! I just can't help but keep looking at it now. Even have to have a wander down the garage every now and then to go see, lol. I think you may be right Stu..........hmmm, manual conversion maybe.

Dave! That seems ages ago eh? You have done well though eh with yours. Well, I have a front end to show off now! But you're right.....still prefer the lines from the back view! Come on Pete/Ryan.......change that and quote me as saying "I like it from the back". LOL......was good to meet you guys on sat, feels like I can take the pi$$ out of you more now! Be a bit more insulting maybe....:)

He he, I was toying around with putting the stickers on or not for ages. I put them on (as you can see) and thought, yep, like those. Then I thought no, now I think yes again. Some will hate them, others will like them......they are staying on for the time being! Chris got these for me and got to say they are excellent quality - like 'em or not!

LOL......like you mate. Don't mean it bud, you know that. And thanks very much. Pete.......only about 6 months and a billion phone calls! Nice one for the decals Chris! Top quality bud. Have a spare "WingsWest" one now though. :(

Finally picked up the Z saturday afternoon. As you can see no skirts or rear bumper as first planned but after actually buying them it was worked out alot more work than I thought to fit them. So I have sold them and got all the stone gaurd taken off instead. One day maybe go for the SE skirts. So it was - 99 spec front vented bonnet H/L panel smoothed rear wiper smoothed stone gaurd smoothed new wheels new number plate. Hope you like it. There will be more pics when the sun is shining!

Sorry to hear this mate, it sucks for sure. I can imagine its a right mess and horrible to look at! Hope you get it sorted soon.

Randy Ryan???????? PMSL!!!! You snake in the grass!

Ah sh1t Mike.......what a fooker. I think most of the time these days people will pi$$ off if they hit a car and no-one is around. Sorry mate, hope you get it sorted asap. ..........might have to scrap the t-shirt now????

LMFAO! That is a good idea! I might just do that. He kept bragging how it was 150 bhp.

FFS!!! I have just got back from my bodyshop. Its not ready, surprise, surpsrise. Very nearly, I did see it with my own eyes. He said it would be ready by 10:30 tomorrow morning but I want to be there early so I will be coming in the Golf.........HIS Golf that he leant me cos he felt bad. Its a new Golf turbo diesel, well pokey as it goes. Anyway, Z was looking a bit nice, he's re-sprayed the whole car! The stone gaurd taken off and smoothed looks REALLY nice........just a shame it won't make an appearance tomorrow. Oh well, next time.

Its ok, Mike on MSN has told me!

Just after how long a l/w/b Z is????? (clearing out garage! Wondering if I have cleared enough yet!)

Of what??? Mike, now is not a good time........doesn't look like my car is going to be done in time. I am not in a good mood.

I know what you're saying, I'm just not bothered about a "now" and "later" bhp figure.

Nah.......not till I got it tweeked up.

:rolleyes: I was expecting a "bald" joke....... :xxx: LOL.......see you tomorrow mate! I'm bringing the s/skirts up?

Looking forward to this, be good to put ugly mugs to some names.........Ryan. If my isn't ready today I am going to fcuking freak out.
