Very nice car but really only reiterating what others are saying. I would consider it a step back to get a ZR even in T16 form I'm afraid. Would be a fun track car though!

Didnt George do the conversion?

Smokey 27-08-12 12:45 AM

Yeah, mentioned on the throttle bodied thread.

Lukeus101 27-08-12 02:04 AM

AHHHH i see :)

I was starting to like it until...........nice car btw. Never driven a ZR in anger, am I missing anything?

Much the same as the rest of the guys. The main thing i like about my Mk2 180 is the power delivery of the V6, never really been a fan of turbo cars.

There's no replacement for displacement

Tbh George did do the conversion

But his work quality is top notch.. Iv noticed people mention his name and go defencive :yawn:

Got bored of that already :chair: Haha..

But apart from george`s Slow progress in the conversion the quality is better than most iv seen, The loom looks OE.. The Battery was relocated to the boot etc..

And iv had it since 09 and the only problem iv had mechanically is the Alternator and Battery?

I was off to send the car down to him to get it forged.. But a baby on the way forces a swap.. or Sale...


Iv seen all Georges previous History but that`s all i see it as "History.."
But on his defence 1 bad job tells 10.. 1 good job tells a few.. On a forum one bad job tells thousands lol

Bit like a credit report..

When i was 18 i was in dept and had bailiffs etc credit was extremely poor..

Now is a different storey 5 years later....

But anyway

Old Chinese proverb, "those who ignore history may be destined to relive it" that is all.
