All i can think of for now.... i'll edit it if i think of anymore :) Enjoy!

OMG..... awesome.......:bounce:

Looks awesome Dan, well done mate :)

wow that is some car:D love it, see the clocks if your doing the conversion can you keet the zs clocks or you got to go 400?
some car but think everyone will be turning green

Well Done Dan ..... :thumbsup:

Apparently you can switch 2 cables on the back of them and the ZS clocks work with the 400 loom.... I never tried it because i fancied something a little different :)
Really depends how u decide to do the wiring, keeping the ZS loom obviously means you can keep the ZS clocks.

Hopefully it'll only be the passenger going green ;):sick::sick:

im still not sure as to what i want to do with mine after i buy something else, t series makes sense but dont know if i want to be different n try keep it light weight
would the mk2 be more difficult because of the scu to convert, ive not really looked at whats required wiring side.

but anyway that will be giving a few big cars a run for theyre money:P

Top job that car looks like it's gonna be a monster

just plain awsome dude, nice to see her up and running... roll on march and seeing it.

Thats some zs that well done mate
