My Mk1 MG ZS 180

Well heres my zs, thank you for who voted in my poll about what colour i should paint the brakes, i went for black and green, but thanks anyway

Whats done so far:
Added extreme spoiler
18" lenso stage 1 alloys with toyo proxies4 215/35/18 tyres
painted brakes with xpower stickers
Rover 45 headlights
Dipped beam and foglights fitted with HID kits ( good quality hid kits)
xpower/janspeed inwarly rolled backbox
'MG' logo mudflaps
Pioneer X1R headunit with 6 Cd mulichanger and road angel
+ probably other little things that i have forgotten about.














Plans for it:
A wee Service ( oil filter, pollen filter, air filter, motul 10 40w chrono oil)
renew drivebelt and timing belts alogn with new waterpump tentioner and idler, and a coolant flush while im going to get covered in coolant
new drivers side driveshaft or new CV ( ABS ring went a few days ago) will renew gearbox fluid while im at it
Drivers side doorcard draft excluder
Goodridge braided brake hoses ( had to get specially made up as they sent a kit with no brackets ) have already stuck the goodridge sticker on car lol will use 5.1 fluid.
Rear electric windows (why this car came without them i will never under stand)
New trailing arm bushes

Dreams for it: - sometimes come true

Alacantra interior with rear headrests and heated front seats
janspeed intermediate pipe, sports cat and v6 manifold
ITG maxogen air filter
xpower springs and fully polybush the car
upgrade sound system

Sweet ZS mate, the wheels suit it very well, as do the painted brake combo. loving the flip up display, are those gauges for show or real time?

Not so keen on the MKI shape, but still looks good. Like the screen gauges.

they are set to forward/back acceleration and sidewards acceleration ( how many G) and the speedo in the middle, and yes they do work, hate things that are just for show

Thanks for you comments guys and gals of course

Yummy. Got basic G meter in mine on my headunit. Good fun pushing the guages around when playing.
Love the look of your car. Wheels look ace and the calipers look great. Like the badging on your engine cover too. Must get some new pics of mine up again.
