thanks man. It really does look better in the flesh and needs a loving home.

gypsycatcha

Ok I know its the wrong time of the year to be selling this but I really need to find her a new home. Had this nearly 5 years and its been a great little car and never really gave me any problems. Spent allot of money and time changing this from standard to as it is now. its a 1.9 late 98 (r) auto w...

I did it on a fairly long journey and it was fine. I had the front bolts in and just went easy. Because the roof is quite heavy, i found i had little movement and the journey was pretty straight, flat roads so it was ok.

gypsycatcha

Yes you can fit them to standard lamps. Fitting to the projectors is a tricky job as you have to modify the lamp for them to fit. I was going to do it but then decided not to. You may get through mot's with them but they are not legal. I think you will be more than happy if you went for the projecto...

Funny, I just sold a pair of brand new BMW carbon splitters for the 1er this week, when I put one on the car it looked great but then I thought I would forever be worrying about every kerb, speed hump etc I decided not too fit em. Whilst they will look great on the M, just not convinced of their pr...

gypsycatcha

Im very interested in seeing how this all looks once the wider wings and wider bumper are fitted. If the rear wheels are spaced to line with the arches, this will look great.
Fair play for doing this

gypsycatcha

Thx for the help guys.
its really bugging me and im going to have to drive with it for a few weeks until i can get it looked at.
Just hope its an easy and cheap fix.
Fingers crossed

gypsycatcha

They do make a massive difference to the look of the front of the car and it will look alot lower.
I have the reps on my non m but love the m flippers and if i remember rightly, i think the copies were in the 150 or more region so its not a bad price.
Wouldnt be right putting copies on your car

gypsycatcha

Well im running on eibachs 30 all round which have been on for approx 2 years but the roads round here, if you can call them that, are terrible.
If the spring need replacing, Can you buy them as a single or is it another set??

gypsycatcha

Right need a little help. Im getting this really annoying noise from the rear. I think its on the offside and the only way i can describe it is like having a bag of bolts in the boot. Its much more noticable with 2 people in the car but i even get little knocks and squeaks when i go over bumps. Also...

gypsycatcha

Not sure if im the only one here as iv never been sure of them but i thought the 3 piece spoiler looked pretty good on the zed.

And i will defend the 1.9 as a great little first time sports car. Pretty quick, nimble in the bends and not bad on fuel.
Atleast we didnt see a piano

gypsycatcha

Great little project on a great little car. Very interested in the rear arches. when you say wide, do you mean they are off the 2.8 zed?? Gonna have to have wheels that will fill the arches now they are wide. Daft question, but isn't the axle width different on the M from the other models? hence wh...

gypsycatcha

After a 30mm drop and a set of shnitzer rep splitters, my zed is now a snow scoop clearing the roads for others

gypsycatcha

I just find myself trying to like them beacause they are rare and i lke the idea but i know deep down, i just dont like them.

gypsycatcha

Yep i have these and they look great.
Someone buy them

gypsycatcha

I love those wheels and because of the curbing and me fancying a change, i may go for these too.
Cars looking great.

gypsycatcha

After alot of reading, i chose the eibach set up and have never looked back. Like Naeem says, the ride doesnt hardly change and i have no rubbing issues. you will pay a bit more for eibach but you get what you pay for and even more so if your using the car daily like i do.
Great set of springs.

gypsycatcha

Thanks for the comments guys. Gypsycatcha- that's exactly what i thought when the bumper went on so I got online ordered me some tpi 15mm spacers. I think I'll have to get the arches rolled though to be on the safe side as the tyres might just catch the inner arch lip. Overall though really happy w...

gypsycatcha

Looks great. The only thing id say is i think the back wheels would look better with some spacers fitted just so it lines up with the arch and your aero sides and rear bumper.
you made some great mods to your car

gypsycatcha

I agree with gookah on this. For zroadster to not even do the decent thing and reply to an email is wrong and a real shame. To be fair, i think most people check how long members that are selling have been on the site, how many posts made etc. I sometimes ask for there ebay id so i can check feedbac...

Sorry to raid the thread but just noticed your number plate

gypsycatcha

Im afraid i got burned on here a while back when i first joined. I even met the guy but he turned out to be very un-reliable in returning mails and calls and i even hed to pretend i was someone else when asking about another item he had for sale just for him to respond. I was told he was ok but warn...

gypsycatcha

Not sure if the ac shnitzers are different to the replicas but i have some reps fitted to my 1.9 bumper.
Been meaning to post some pics but been real busy. Il try and add some pics.

ps they really make a difference to the front of the car.

gypsycatcha

Yep the other guys comments are a little odd to say the least. I like what u have done and i totally agree that the gills are a really good idea and something know one else has thought of. I was thinking of taking the badge of the gills and having it filled until i went with the m side gills. I thin...

gypsycatcha

I think it looks great on tims zed but still unsure with the darker colour...
U have any pics Brent?

gypsycatcha

I know what your saying but i do think it will stand out more on the dark blue. I too think the black will be a bit of a waste of money but would prob look alot better on the 2.8 larger opening. I may just go for it and if it doesnt work out, il try amd move it on on here... It is a quality piece th...

gypsycatcha

I actually dont think its a bad price as the guys obviously gone to alot of trouble to get it looking like that. Milage is fairly high and i know you dont always get your moneys worth when modding a car but if you look at other 2.8s similar age, miles... this isnt to bad. The thing that would bug me...

gypsycatcha

I want to add this grill but i just am not sure if the silver will be to much on my montreal blue as i have quite a bit of chrome already.
I was going to go with the black but im thinking on the 1.9, u might not hardly see it for the price u pay

Really am not sure

gypsycatcha

I quite like it. The backs a bit ott for me but it still looks pretty good.
Pretty sure its no ones on here.

gypsycatcha

I like it and the splitter has really grown on me.
Id keep an eye out for some m mirrors although they can be dear, they look great.
Nice work.

gypsycatcha

I went for a straight spring swap. My advice to you would be not to buy a cheap spring. After lots of reading, i went for the eibach 30mm pro set up. Car looks superb drives so much better in the bends. I would def not go lower than 30mm. I have trouble getting on my drive which is quite high and so...

gypsycatcha

stealer will have it. Cant remember the price i paid, in the region of £80 i think. I didnt take the screen out and its not come off. Well, not yet anyway.
My mate said it was a bit of a pig to fit mind.

gypsycatcha

Not sure if these will be of interest but i have some standard springs that come off my 98 1.9.
Pm for details

gypsycatcha

Well done. I had exactly the same problem and did exactly the same as you. Just found anything i put on the zed sounded real nice but way way to loud.

gypsycatcha

Thats right i remember now. Might look into this later on but still trying to locate some side spats.

gypsycatcha

Give 007 an email at justroadster.com. He should be able to sort u out.
Was thinking of getting the same but never got round to it

gypsycatcha

The shnitzer diffuser actually looks good on the pre facelift.
Wish i got one when u was selling them

gypsycatcha

I like the all black grill but only on black cars. Was talking about this recently, why dont you get the oem chrome grill but change the outside to black so u have black trim with the chrome insert? Someone posted a pic of it and it looks really good. Not to much chrome but also not to black. Thinki...

gypsycatcha

Get yourself sorted Wendy and come back with a differebt colour zed later on

Hope you get a good price and a loving owner.

gypsycatcha

Quality

gypsycatcha

Mark i remember a while back you had some brambe discs for sale. Did u shift them?

gypsycatcha

Yep, looks better on the zed. Nice mod.

gypsycatcha

Im 50 50 on this. I think its worth spraying as it would look so much better.
Not sure i like the intakes. Could look good filled in then painted...
Nice little idea for the money.

gypsycatcha

Thx for the reply. I did notice yours is pretty much the only one with a progress page on the z4 which is a shame. Im the same, I love the sides and back of the 4 but love the front and classic look and feel to the 3. Then there the width of the 4 wich i prefere and the newer engine.... If i can get...

Can new members not be restricted to selling items until they have posed a certain numbers of time? I know they could just add comments or emoticons to any post but at least the buyer can view their posting history before they make a purchase. As they say in Latin "Buyer beware" :) Im a m...

gypsycatcha

Was going to hijack jonttt thread but thought id post here. Theres a pic of your car from the back at one of the recent meets and i gotta say, looks very nice. So be honest, how u finding the z4 and do you prefere it to the 3? I am thinking of going for a z4 then maybe going for another more powerfu...

gypsycatcha

Whats wrong with the cobra??
Iv heard remus are meant to be pretty good and im sure they do one for the m44.
I had one hand made which sounded great but just to loud for me.
If u want a proper job made to spec, i would try hayward and scott.
Had an exhaust made there and they are very very good.

gypsycatcha

Cant really go wrong for £450. sure theres one near me (leigh on sea) that are asking closer to £550.
If i keep my car, I will look into getting this done.

gypsycatcha

Yeah it does look very good aswell.
Still very stealth but just has a little chrome to compliment the side gills, wheels....
Nice little mod
