DannyZR's 1.8k Turbo MK2

"Well im sure most of you guys know my car as its been around for a good few years but this is how it stands today;

Originally an MG ZR 105 Trophy its now running a fully rebuilt (by AMWmotorsport ) K series 1.8 turbo engine with a few little tweaks such as running a fully rebuilt and strengthened T25 turbo from a T16 turbo and a one off custom AMWmotorsport manifold. etc etc im not going to blab on."

here is the actual car:

here are some engine bay pics from when id just had it done to earlier this year where ive hand the inlet manifold powder coated black;

here are some pics of my 100% custom one off 2.5 inch turbo exhaust built originally by Zorstec and then modified again by AMWmotorsport, too my knowledge there is no other like this anywhere i as had the spare wheel well removed and then the dual exhaust centred and split in the middle to come out duals as you can see by the pictures.

Here's the interior of the car nothing major ive replaced the seats with some blue monaco's carbon fibre wrapped a few things and its running the standard boost and volt gauge mounted, also ive put a mk1 dash pocket in and also has some custom Xpower matts made for the car which i think is a nice little touch

Wheels; now as most of you know i have my 18" mini cooper S BBS works wheels which have to be one of my favourite things about my car and are like rocking horse poop to find

Now these been expensive wheels i didnt want to get them damaged but the grit and dirt of the winter so i picked up a set of standard straights and thought why the heel not and this is the result, as much as i love my BBS's i love these in a different way, as when i got these done i hadnt seen candy purple wheels done on a ZR before and it was abit of a risk and i think it pulled off.

since summer was over earlier on this year i thought i might aswell do a few other candy purple bits so dervjunkie on here sprayed my mirror caps and my interior mirror candy purple aswell which may i add was a PIG to match but i love it and well this is how it sits today outside my house;

Also one last thing is im sure you lot know my car is known for been clean so here are some reflection shots to finish my post off

And lastly heres Damos ugly mug

"Thanks again for voting it car of the week its my pride and joy and well in january unless something happens it will be going up for sale so keep your eyes peeled "
