On request, the English version of my topic 8)


It all starts in september 2003. The 16V is imported from Germany that year, it was build in '93.

This is how I got it
Image

Image

One of the first mods is some debadging of the rear
Image
The 16V is gone too, but that's because the original glue let loose..

Replaced old dirty mesh with black mesh
Image

Next mod was the exhaust system. The Musketier system was worn out. We made a custom catback system.
Image

The brakes were a problem too. All discs are replaced with Sandtler RS discs, and brakepads are replaced with Ferodo DS2500. Also new brakehoses from Goodridge and new handbrake cables.

Image

Image

Image

Waiting for an overhaulkit for the front brake callipers

Image


Image

The kit is in, so time to put it all together

Image

New brakehose front
Image

Brake bleeding
Image

Result with the standard alloys
Image

Detail
Image

The shiftknob has been completed with a piece of stainless tube to make it look better.
Image

Foglights come on too when I brake, made a switch to be able to switch it off too
Image


Small start of some ICE
Image

New licenseplateretainers
Image

Centerconsole colorcoded, but I don't like the color. It got damaged anyway so needs to be done again. Where the cigarettelighter used to be there will be a start button :)
Image

Image

Really tight for ICE cables :?
Image

Little fotoshoot
Image

Image

I wanted more color under the hood, started off with the largest piece of plastic :P
Image

Image

Killswitch (never put in, lack of space)
Image

Update

Pics of the modded brakelights
Image

Image

Stainless airintaketube in progress
Image

Privacyglass
Image

Image

Dark side indicators
Image

Dark rear light clusters + Saxo wiper, CS Stickers
Image

Blue leds in instrument panel, but I dont like it.
Image

Green CCFL's
Image


Yellow fans
Image

Stainless airintaketube finished 8)

Image

Image

Bottle stands in for an oilcatch can which has yet to be made.

Building in some stuff:

Image

Image

Center hole will be housing an AFR meter 8)

All meters in 8)
Image

Image

Image

White indicators at last.. For a mark I ZX they need to be modified to make them fit.
Image

Image

HID conversion and Sparco pedals 8)

Left xenon right halogeen:
Image

Both Xenon:
Image

Image

Image

Expensive PIAA leds for parklights
Image

Trying to extend a Fiat Brava wiper.. still too short

Image

Image

New Peugeot Aiddel wheels in 17" Chrome Shadow 8) With 205/40ZR17 FK-451 Falkens tires.

Image

Image

Idling valve moved and put a K&N filter on it
Image

More yellow
Image

No more privacyglass, no more rearwiper, modifying the trunk to open it electrically 8)

Image

Image

Wiper gone
Image

Image

Trunk opening mechanism
Image


More follows (lots of typing :P:P:P)

No heavy is not it. But, how I find, too expensively! Anyhow in Germany.

The conversion is simple, see the story at the frontpage.
Conversion is at this moment around €200. I paid more, but that was over 1.5 year back.

ZX-Cruiser, I only don´t understand how to dismount the head light, in the xenon article in one picture the head light was there, in another pic it was removed! is simple to remove it?

humm, in Brazil is prohibited to install xenon kits, but is prohibited to lowering the car, to use a window film and many other things lol

it is very expensive, is about to 650 US dollars :(

Wow it used to be that expensive here too but that's like 3 years ago..

Headlight is mounted with kinda paperclip-like clips.. can be a little struggle to mount those back ;)
