they where custom made, on the rovertech website they did a group buy for the full set and where made in spain. very hard to get now but i think i paid £160 for the full set :) they appear on ebay now and again but arnt cheap.samco coolant kit was from ebay for £180 and the aditional hoses where £30 for a meter needed for the oil feed pipes.You will find most parts like heatshields etc on rovertech as they always have group buys and parts for sale
check it again now with the rally bumper and see what you think. stripes arnt everyones cuppa but i went without them and it looked boring. I like people to see me coming and i always here from locals that they have seen the car around :) never heard that about any other car ive had as they all looked boring. you see STs with stripes and they all look aloke but now im a one off and love it :D The rally bumper and smoothed rear now finishes it off a treat
a local mg owner/fan called lee121 on forums (mgrover.org or southmids sportsters)does them. he sells them made for each car and installs them ofc if you are close. hes striped loads of mgs ( mainly tfs) and can do the custom door decals for extra and as far as i know im the only person to have the door decals :) ive replaced loads of bits so went back again and again.
its still the t25 turbo so the bhp top is around 250 but plenty for me atm, only thing i havent changed is the bonnet and 2 front wings si everything else that can be removed or changed has been :S must have spent about 5k roughly maybe more but i love it :)
For sure, they look amazing and are a great bhp and on the 1.4 a new throttle body will get you over the 100bhp mark and will eat most modern hothatchs. check the insurance tho
Hi m8 where did you get your stabilising bar from on the drivers side mount, I'm just in the process of turboing my 160 and need this piece also did you get your hazard lights to work after you put the mk2 dash in
best to get one done AND all the paperwork as proof. i may be selling mine soon as i cant drive due to surgery. keep an eye out on the cars for sale on rovertech
Hi Kevin - can you please tell me where you got your Angel eye headlights ? thanks. For those that want a "different" M.G. badge - a company called Capricorn One have a good range.
hello mate, i have a mg zr and have recently bought an rover 620 turbo, im just wondering how you did the engine mounts, power steering pipes, gear linkage and how did you change the cable clutch to hydraulic clutch?
hey kevin, i have an MG ZR and would like to do it up engine and everywhere else. Can you tell me the best websites to use for parts and can you tell me what you've used and what company sold that product? I know its asking alot but i dont have a clue where to look and do. Also where can i buy lime green vent covers etc for inside the car?
you said you changed they gear box was it by any chance a type a before you changed it to a type b as the type b are shorter ratios but if it was a type a you have lost out in some respects as you have a better top end on a type a but you have done a fantastic job on it ive also just finished mine running about 350bhp and a ti running about 390bhp and bout 420 pounds of talk but you have done a fantastic job on this mate
The bonnet mg badge? that was custom made for my by a friend. the plates where 3d gel plates from ebay. they arnt legal tho so had to ditch them at the mot
Sean Griffin I think I had a couple testing the hks dump valve that's all haha it was quite a while ago now but they should still be on here somewhere.
+kevinwoolford123 i just bought a zr 2.0 td for 700 quid mint condition, its also my first car. So i was just wondering if u got any tips on what i can do with it
+BossPlayMatrix They are great cars just take care of it and it will last forever. See what mods you like and go for them you only live once =) The injector mods on the diesels are great but I don't know much about them but it's a mod to look into
+kevinwoolford123 ah make me some!?;) i actually lobe you engine bay aha, all the chrome mirror plates and shields, did you make them or buy them? also wherw you hks valve is on that T piece blue section where did you get that and what size is it? sorry aha im just looking to get one and like asking questions😂
+Zion! Ghosts Commentator! I honestly can't remember much about it anymore likes sizes etc =( most of the chrome was custom made and wasn't cheap but I don't think you can buy the kits anymore. Sorry mate
+kevinwoolford123 ah no:( at least i know i can get something like that aha, only way i thought of was welding the hks adaptor to the intake piping and attatch it aha, and ok fair enough looks nice tho but guessing you no longer have it?
+Zion! Ghosts Commentator! It changed alot over the time I had it but it's gone now sadly. the hks was put into a t silicone pipe. I think you can weld on the connectors tho if you want to take that route =)
£2600 ouch! When i got mine they wanted £1600 if it was standard and with the engine conversion £900 lol how do they work that out! I pay £600 now and thats still a joke. when you get it register on mgrover.org as that has all the onfo you need for anything to do with ZR inc mods etc
