few pics of new mods

Flocked dash in. New wheel. Just few new switches/baterry cut off to go into centre pannel.
Rear braces for honda civic off ebay.
Some more weight saving. Heater boxes + A/C removed. Few more things to do, such as Polycarbonate windows and bit more weight saving. Adjustable suspension arms all round to be fitted and adjusted......(and a good clean inside....lol)

Look on ebay for honda civic braces.
about £20 each

Yes I under sealed it a few months ago. Just gave it a quick blast underneath. Needs doing properly really.

Looking good Dave, I bet she sticks to the road like a blanket, do the braces make alot of difference to the way the car handles?

They make a bit of a difference on the Civic's, so should imagine it would have the same effect on a ZS...

I guess that you could fit the camber arms to a ZS too, along with upper wishbones... Unless MG changed them for some odd reason!

Love the dash Dave, stops the glare on sunny days. So what is it like with everything stripped, noise levels, droning etc? The only thing stopping me is the 70 mile a day commute, I don't think my ears could take it! Nice wheel too, I'm on the lookout for one similar as mine has been scratched by a certain females sharp nail!
