Nice upgrade Jet! Really makes a difference, the 17" look much more in harmony with the Z1 than your previous 18" Azev and Alpina wheels.
I must admit it looks like Sennas old car now which was in BMW car magazine. But never the less it looks amazing. I hope Apollo is happy now with an other Hartge zedder on his side.
Mister Slick time to do a AC schnitzer conversion to keep us on top of the game.

Jet any time m8 and just as well we did not do it today lol, nonstop freaking rain all day today
Yes we had loads of fun! I love doing all the work on my car as it saves loads of money and it's a great feeling knowing you did the work yourself
I’m now very happy after seeing Volkers wheels and falling in love with them; I knew I had to have them!
Outstanding work:
1 - Change front lenses to clear, new ones should be here next week
2 - Have roof fitted that’s been under my bed for the last 2 months, but no time to take to fitter
3 - Looking at Jet’s brake conversion I might start collecting required parts to do ASAP
4 - Order new seats, I might wait till winter to order these.
Anyway more pic's courtesy of Jet, who’s better with a camera than a tool box

Thanks HH, and no you chaps where spot on! no need to lower front any more, im very happy the way it is. You chaps have been a good source of information, making sure I got it right first time, so many thanks to all that contributed in finding me a perfect solutionHolland Harry wrote: Terry your car looks very nice and has a good stands. I would leave it at this and wouldn't lower the car anyfurther. The decision is up to you!!

Yo
Can't decide which ones i like best!
Well done chaps you both must be very happy with your choices.
I wish I had the money to follow suite and buy my dream wheels. My wife spent £29,000 on house improvements. Home is where the heart is though, so she says. On the other hand I will figure out how to get some new rims on my car soon! Lol
take care guys, don't go near any kerbs dudes.

I am glad Apollo's car is a source of inspiration, It was the most unique Z1 in 2005, so you have had 5 years to catch up. You just need the power now.Jet wrote:Your welcome, but not quite, I made it bettersenna wrote:For a moment there I thought the car on the left was my old Z1, Green with Gelb, Hartge wheels, 4 pipes!

As for my car now, it is nothing like my old one: Red/Black S62 power and M5 wheels. A bit of a sleeper/council look. Just waiting to put some Luftwaffe decals to compete it.
Apollo's S62 is in a different class.

The comparisons to your car were inevitable once I bought those wheels, even though they are totally different. Hard to avoid a clash, when you keep changing cars and own a warehouse full of neverending styling goodies and performance partssenna wrote:I am glad Apollo's car is a source of inspiration, It was the most unique Z1 in 2005, so you have had 5 years to catch up.

I was just about to reply to your response on the Dbilas system and its gone, why did you delete it?
Its all this talk of wheels? Blame Terry for that, no serious thread gets started before it turns to wheels, he is solely responsible for 80% of the Z1 forum traffic this year

Only Joking Jet
Ironically it does look like I copied Apollo`s car, but its just a coincidence, after selling my Black Z1, Green with Lemon was next on my list.
Coincidentally you finished your Z1M in 2006, the same year I had the leather, exhaust, reverse sensors, roof, fitted.
Ah forget it, im putting my Azev back on

Finally got the original steering wheel delivered and installed, it’s like brand spanking new and for under £200 delivered I must say feels so much nicer than that bloody M-Tech wheel that was on the car when I bought it! So to Fleebay with it lol
Now ill I need to do is feed it ETC to keep it looking nice and new
Next week I shall be changing both wishbones, track rod ends and while I’m at it all bushes due to a little play in the strut joints

No way, you 2 can keep your ideas. I now have some nasty scratches just above the rubber spoiler, thanks to a ridiculously high nasty speed bump last week. (but I do need a mother-in-law for babysit/cooking duties, I gather Apollo has a few of them?).senna wrote:Jet you might need these to complete the Apollo look
£50 for you
Myself and Jet where going to install these, but changed our mind. Bought them for £15 the pair from Germany. I just sold 2 pairs on Fleebay for £18 a set!senna wrote:Jet you might need these to complete the Apollo look

Re: Anybody know what wheels these are?
The Manual says 2.0 bar (28.4 psi) fronts, 2.3 bar (31.3 psi) rears - although google disagrees with those conversions, and as Ivor says that's for 17" standard wheels

All good thanks m8, hope all is well for you! I keep meaning to give you a Bell
