i really like the wheels, chrome, rimmed dished wheels always look an inch smaller. I think they set it off a treat

Pfew, just noticed it's been way too long since my last visit here

But, I haven't been sitting still in the meentime

Here's an update:

I started with fitting some decent ICE, like woofer, amp, new speaker around and a new HU, the Pioneer Avic X3-BT:

The woofer


The Amp


The capacitor


The Set-up


Head Unit


Another shot of the Head Unit


A very cool movie



Next, I fitted MKI indicators




After those it was time to change the rims as the black Sato's were losing its paint Fortunately, it was done under warrantee
They are 17" Bellini Bella Black Chrome:






Then the search for more Horse power got me again. The garage told me that they had a fully revised ZR160 cylinder head including a the ECU. Didn't take me too long to decide that I wanted that one.
Now, I'm most likely the only ZS160VVC racing around The Netherlands

















And to finish the job I have added some ZR160 badges:







Near future mods are Citroen Saxo jet washer jets (already have 'em, just need fitting)
Blue dash ilumination (lights ordered)
Change orf steering wheel (also already ordered)

That's it for now.

Cheers,
Pete

Nice... Is the car Black or 'Blue'...? It's hard to tell from some of the pics.

It's Royal Blue Pearl Escent mate


Sorry for the size of the pictures. If they are too big, I'll try to make them smaller or if there is another way plz let me know (I knowa site that uses [ imgR ] [ /imgR ] to automatically resize pictures to forum layout.

Thanks for your replies guys

Looking good Pete, how long have you had it? Interesting to see the interior paint is looking like trophy blue there.
