few more mods on my road zs

added a few more mods to my road going zs which is now becoming more and more track focused. seats are out and ive carpeted the rear. loving the scangauge though as its a really useful add on.

scangauge! I'm jealous
carpeting in the rear looks really smart mate

Looking good, soon have as many track cars as road going std cars.

Have fun.

Can see a track meet coming up.

looking good, liking the carpet in the back, reminds me of my old Corsa Van with rear strut.

Looks good.

I've cut a grove in the top of my steering column cover so my scan gauge sits down a little.

I notice you have an inlet temp of 43', what sort of temp does it normally run at?

Also how do you get 28mpg? I never see much over 20 except on a long run where I can get it up to 30+, bet you've got the upto date version which has UK gallons.

Please don't say that's high lol I've seen much higher than that :s

mine is still in US gallons, so I never bothered with the MPG aspect of it

The rear looks really good flat like that!

Looks nifty carpeted, just as well it's a hatch then!

One thing I learnt taking ZS's, ZS to bits is that on the saloon the bracing behind the rear seats is only bolted in. Not as I thought it would be, welded.

So in theory you could have as much clear width at the back as a hatch back.

I was queing in traffic for 45 minutes yesterday after a 30 minute 70mph run, mine got up to 69' but didn't go higher for the last 20 minutes before I stopped.
