So lots of tinkering this weekend on Clown. First up the suspension all rejigged and she now handles like an absolute dream, chalk and cheese from before. Also raised the height of the coilovers from silly low to acceptable. Then took off the twin pipes which weren't to my taste and fitted a lovely single from Cybox. Need to decide what to do with the holes but may well cover it up with some carbon.

More importantly though the depurpling was accomplished! Also fitted some vinyl supplied by Daz of Locking Vinyl, he did a great job supplying just what I asked for however I made a hash fitting the boot parts. I'll have it redone by a pro but it'll do for now.

So the all important pics....

Selling the old exhaust, I'm just not a fan of the twins :joker:

Shame I didn't know that before I cut my bumper for my duplex, we could've done a swap.

Email just off to Z&F to see if they can help me with a little idea I have, should make the weeny 1.6 a wee bit different, here's hoping :D

Also been looking in to different brakes as the front stoppers are puny! I guess a 180 set-up would be sufficient, have to change master cylinder and servo too, but I've also been tempted by some nice 4-pots. I think from my research the EK ones should fit as you can get them at a much more reasonable price than anything branded for MG.

Hmm, overdraft abusing time hopefully :D

I might still have a 180 servo and m/cyl kicking about if you end up needing, I emphasize the might as I had a big clear out of bits I no longer needed.

adam 19-02-14 06:15 PM

If you have Pete let me know as I'd definitely have it from you?!

petet16 19-02-14 06:29 PM

I'll try and find it tomorrow, although I'm using Brembo front calipers with the 1.6 zs master and servo with no issues, I originally sourced the 180 bits to use, but decided there was no need.
