that quote made my day,lol.

wheres the afters pics? keeping a garden tidy is a full time job.

running 255/35/19 front and 275/35/19 rears. really should get some 30's tho as 35 catch. get some pics up when you got yours fitted.

you need to be subscribed to pm.

its a shame you had to stop making these smithy. no one else seems to make them to the same quality as when you did them

i always wanted one of those. one day, one day.

be best to get the turbos checked as most likely may of been starved of oil first and could explain the symptoms your having now. hope you can get it sorted out without too much cost.

is it trying to start? i.e turning over?. if so there is a connection on the wiring behind the drivers side headlight that can be forgotten about when refiting the engine. have a look. hth.

may be overboosting and detting. what air filter have you got on?

what boost controller have you got fitted? is the settings correct on it?.

only on this forum do we find a generosity that wont be found anywhere else. top spirited community.

will a import speedometer work ok in a uk z?. mine doesn't work properly and would like a working speedo cluster again. cheers dave

I like the bumper, but I think although the skirts are good they are too square(ish) compared to the rest. may blend better once in colour.

Thankyou.

Finished all the repairs for themot and finallyfor the first time in 3months started her up. Was sweet music to my ears to hear it raw again.

The red one looks very nice. Them rear arches are done best ive seen on a zx.

After spending years delivering to houses on them style estates(including the one shown), i can truly say they is only one reason they live the way they do and it isnt because they skint but because they are lazy, no good scumbags. I used to see the state of there homes and they really are scruffy smelly s#!t holes. They all want a big wall building around them and then filling it up with waste water.

If anything i would of changed the engine to a twin turbo v8. Seeing as the zx is a grand tourer and not a sport racer a v8 would of been a good choice. Plus it would sound loads better.

Did you get this sorted? Fancy swapping ya white z for another cupra,lol.

Thats low. Couldnt get it around to most areas i live. Wanted mine abit lower but there is always a limit, so be careful how low you go for practicality. Any lower and it wouldnt even fit into my garage.

Found a side pic for ya

Thankyou.

Cant believe ive not got a proper side view but here you go. Lowered around 45mm, sat on 19" wheels. Hth.

Same cupra as mine then I got same big turbo hiss noise on mine. My advise would be to get rid now as these are nothing but trouble,lol. Had mine since feb and spend loads on trying to find a hesitation problem. Mikey couldnt even find what the problem is, niether can my local machanic mate who owns his own garage nor can the local seat main dealer themselves.

Very sad news indeed is this. My condolences to his family at such a sad time. R.i.p. barry.
