mossy Posted July 18, 2013 Author Posted July 18, 2013 Well finally got my club permit today so besides tidying up a few things the zeds finisihed, although I have to admit I'm not as excited as I thought I would be, maybe I'm just relieved? :-\ Quote

And its a funny thing about zed cars they just develope over time. Is baby come home in the Zed from the hospital ?, Mate take the Golf Im sure it will be more comfortable Quote
dazzed Posted July 18, 2013 Posted July 18, 2013 You only have a stock head on it really, later on if you wont more its easy to gain 50hp more does that mean that the exhausts ports are rescricted and require further work to enhance flow . Pete and to do so the head to be removed from the cylinder block once its just been fitted Is there a possibility that if the cylinder head is removed from the the cylinder block that a distortion in both the block an head may occure that cannot be reprodused as far as sealing goes ?

Cozza Posted July 18, 2013 Posted July 18, 2013 Looks great Mossy, love the colour and wheel combination and am really impressed by your attention to detail in every element of the rebuild. Congrats on a job well done and good luck with the fresh Bub too. Mick Quote
thriller Posted July 18, 2013 Posted July 18, 2013 Gorgeous. Hope mine looks even half as good when it's done. Quote

benny Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 Bring the bundle of joy back in the Z!!! What a start to life, especially in yours mate! great idea... put the baby on the floor in its capsule... fingers crossed nothing happens Quote
dat240z Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 great idea... put the baby on the floor in its capsule... fingers crossed nothing happens Nah I was thinking of the spare wheel well and some double sided tape!! Quote
mossy Posted August 22, 2013 Author Posted August 22, 2013 Couple more pics while out on a drive. On another note sent some pics to speedhunters over a month ago to get some pics up of the zed, no reply, didn't think the zed was that bad. George_Zed 1 Quote
d3c0y Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 Speedhunters lost the plot a while ago when Larry Chen took over and it went all Euro. You should have sent it in as your wife, you would have gotten your own column. Quote
thriller Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 ^^ Spot on. SH is a bit of a joke (half the time). Your car is 5x as good as any of the Z's I've seen 'featured' on there ever. To be fair, they're probably just so inundated with submissions of sacked out Z's that the mail automatically gets directed to trash. Anyways those photos look fantastic! I think watanabe center caps would top it off perfectly, but that's a lot of $$$ for not much gain Quote
mossy Posted August 22, 2013 Author Posted August 22, 2013 All good, would have been nice to get some professional piccies of the zed in action though Quote
