Hey Guys,
Excuse the lots of random questions but want to start cracking on with things.
Some of you may know I've got a ZX, I use it as a daily and run it on veg. As much as I don't want to spend money on it ( have the 306 for that) I'm getting a bit bored with it!
It's a 3 door Volcane with a Bosch and a T2, rear disc beam as standard.
I've got a set of GTI6 calipers here waiting but I'm wondering what discs and pads to go for? It needs rear discs and pads too so open to suggestions.
I'm happy with the height at the back and often carry loads so don't want to go any lower, however I wouldn't mind dropping the front 20-30mm. Can I use any 306 springs or do they have to be for a ZX? Obviously as it's not as popular as a 306 so it's harder to get bits for it! I recently bought a set of Xsara VTS alloys but these take flat seated bolts and I only have tapered. Suggestions on tyres for these? They currently have winter tyres on them!
I need a few bits for it so if anyone sees any at their local scrappies please give me a shout. Need :
Boot lock
Parcel shelf
Drivers side wing mirror
Tow eye cover
Flat seated bolts
Also I'm currently running around 20-22 psi which is fine as a daily but I would like some pump mods, too busy and not enough tools to do it myself but if there is anyone local to my locations and fancies helping out I don't mind paying.
Sorry for the huge ramble, when I have time I will put up project threads for both cars!
Cheers, Anton
