Cheers?
I think you should take all the MG kit off, make it look like a standard 25. Have an RSPB Sticker in the back. Drive it with a tweed cap. Then smoke everyone from the lights
Does look so mean, has a nice stance to it!
Contemplated it, but then it just looks a bit gay. In essence bodywork wise though its just a standard ZR. Everyone seems to think ZR's are faster tho, when in reality they're exactly the same so its never going to be a sleeper...
Cant please everyone
looks great with the poke to match
Cheers dude.
400+HP, Nitrous, FWD. Your either crazy or a hero, or both. I cant decide.. But s**t me its gonna move like MJ at a kiddies birthday party..
Most people would back up the fact I've got a screw loose tbh.
This is true.
Ford Bantam 1.6
haha yeah dont fance waiting that long.
Could have had mine Scott if there weren't half of theMGZR after them.

I'll try too but I work at a slow rate...
Normal GAZ ones on ebay are alright if your not doing solid track days tbh.

Bit of a boring update as theres limited pictures. Got some custom forgies off GB-Ent to suit my M series rods. After talking to Grant and a few others familiar with the engine - general consensus is that it should be good for 1.8bar (26psi). Limit of the engine is now the Turbo... Temptations to upgrade to a GT3037 or a GT35R, but tbh that can wait. Got bigger issues atm. Like my lack of Samco coolant hoses which are 3 weeks late. Fkers.
Got a bit done this weekend, finish uni on Thursday so hopefully some decent updates should start rolling in. Went and picked up a full ZR160 Brake/suspension setup. For a bargain basement price of £150. The struts themselves go for about £80 on ebay with the front brakes going for around £80 as well. So this leaves me £10 up and with a free 160 rear brake setup. Car used to be on hubs, now on 260mm solids at the rear. Makes no difference in braking but all the n00bs were whining at how gay it looked. Now ive got the great advantage of the ZR handbrake (chucking a fatman tied to some rope out the door would be a more effective way of stopping/holding the car).
Gratuitous pics. Socket is a 10mm long reach for an idea of scale

Info to come once its all done, might look s**t for all I know!
Looks like a money pit atm :/
Anyway, update. Went over to find out when my Samco's were arriving at Merlin Motorsport. This week apparently, which is only 2 and a half weeks late. Samco are a bunch of ****s is all I can conclude. Anyway, couple of pics of a new purchase.

Nice MBP.

Shame its old now :/
Samco's have finally arrived at Combe. Sadly I cant go get them until tomorrow which is a pain. Either way, few little bits done today.
Sorted mounts for both of my main Gauges. Boost on the left, air/fuel on the right. Going to get some oil pressure/temperature ones as well for mounting on the A pillar.
Started thinking about interior electrics more as well. Need to find space for my nitrous controler/nitrous arm switch and the switch for the bottle heater. Problem is, theres not alot of room on a Mk2 dash for stuff to go anywhere. That and ive got switches, but not the connectors at the back. So ive been thinking, relocate the hazard switch down to the bottom right by the headlight level switch. And butcher all my switches to work on aircraft style 2 way switches then mount them on a bit of carbon fibre in place of the standard facia?
Ideas?
Just seen this, awesome mate.
I used to have a 1.4 25 back in the day, was always tempted to drop a t16 in there but never had the balls/knowhow to do it!
Any photos of the rear with the mk2 bot lid?
I bet you get this all the time: but god damn it spray those door handles lol, not a big job I did mine. Oh, and sideskirts

Dont have any pictures of the rear yet. Ive got pics of all the seperate bits but none of it sprayed the right colour and put together. Door handles will be going red once it gets MOT'ed and I can drive it over to a mates bodyshop where all the final touches are getting done.
You ever get to drive/have a ride in a T16'ed ZR ever? They are quite interesting cars. So so so lazy to drive about, but once they get going they go like a stabbed rat. Only problem atm is ive lost both sets of car keys. :dapprove:

Best be ready for next Sat!
Come round and help me sort this f**king omex out! :rasp:
BRM rack baby. 2.4 lock to lock iirc. But yea, it is a bit turn the wheel and then see what happens? Supertanker handling ftw.
Cheers
Mmm cheers?
Lol il pop over some time over the weekend, prob Sunday fella, let you see what a proper engine looks like :rasp:
Drop me a text tomorrow
2.2 bar shed.
Cool beans. Proper engine? If it doesnt leak oil out of every possible hole its not a proper engine... :rasp:
2.2 bar shed.
oh dont worry it does lol
I mean to say il be round as long as my pain killers have kicked in, having proper back trouble
Ouch. What painkillers they give you out of interest? I f**ked my leg up a while back, got some painkillers of my sister that were for period pain, f**k knows what was in them but I was in a good place. Driving a car was certainly off the cards. Controling my mouth was enough of a task...

If you do, get an early mk1 diesel. They're built better than the later models and are pretty much faultless. That and with £450 of spending they're faster than the 160 petrols as well

STFU, tell him to buy mine FFS.
P.S, we have the same boost gauge

Worth it to skip the wait on coil overs alone t-b-h.
True. Can't believe the effort required to remove them. Do not want.
Sod that, you're not allowed up here.
