You'll be supprised at the amount of zx related items are on my watch list on ebay, lots of zx badges in red to all sorts of random stuff.
In other news stripped the gt20v down ealier needs a dam good clean out the vanes were very sticky so gonna clean it all up, come to the conclusion if I do control it with a boost can it's gonna have to be gearbox mounted so I can get to it so.I can easily adjust and mess with it to get it just right, all tho I'd prefer to sort out electronic control if possible.
Oh and my wishbone bushes are on there last legs now so definitely need to make powerflex bushes my next thing to buy and ball joints and track rod ends get it all done on one go and tracked up so it don't need to be tracked again.

What about partner bushes?
RE: chris_90's zx volcane project..... - Chris_90 - 05-11-2014
Lifetime guarantee with powerflex rather spend that extra money to know I'm gonna get the guarantee, it does get some hammer so don't think the partner bushes would last that long tbh.
RE: chris_90's zx volcane project..... - clarkey2010 - 08-11-2014
Any link to the powerflex's your going purchase? Mine are also on the last legs

RE: chris_90's zx volcane project..... - Piggy - 09-11-2014

RE: chris_90's zx volcane project..... - Chris_90 - 10-11-2014
Front bushes come this morning look like the new design to me with the rounded of edges?

Not sure why there's a gap in the middle of them tho?
Also in other news I've bought the 2.75 inch exhaust system off wibbz on here so that'll complete my exhaust system for the gt20
RE: chris_90's zx volcane project..... - Piggy - 10-11-2014
They are the new design
Its not just the rounded edges that are different
That gap will dissappear once they are fitted!
Out of curiosity, why did you plump for the black and not the purple?

RE: chris_90's zx volcane project..... - Chris_90 - 10-11-2014
Don't worry probably won't go on car and be for sale soon no doubt knowing me.
Tbh considering sacking the whole lot off, if my new project of making bio diesel works and I can make it successfully then I'll certainly be giving up and going for something more modern and probably german.
RE: chris_90's zx volcane project..... - Chris_90 - 12-11-2014
New motor come this morning
![[Image: DSC_1419_zps53me8pfe.jpg]](http://s552.photobucket.com/user/mazda_323f/media/Mobile%20Uploads/DSC_1419_zps53me8pfe.jpg.html)

(04-11-2014, 04:44 PM)Chris_90 Wrote: You run waste veg?
Also pump in a bowl of derv soaking hopefully clean it back up.
Pump look similar but much worse than the one in the corsa. I have pics.
I get my veg from a guy on the veg forum who has been filtering for years and has whole shed dedicated to it.
First time I'd had a problem with any of the cars.
Soaked mine in some waste petrol (been sat in tank for literally years) and the stuff just came off with agitation after a few hours.
Do you heat it up at all before injection?
The corsa had a FPHE on it from a combi.
That too has been settled and flushed through. Less gunk came out of it which was a little surprise since the make up of the FPHE to add turbulence is just asking for settling veg to bake on.
I'm heating to about 70-80C and it does take it toll. Fuel lines become service items. Any passage will get some clog over time. But it works a darn sight better in any weather when the viscosity is closer to derv.
Pump was fine after changing seals.
I'm running on new now as it's 65p and not worth the trip to collect the waste filtered stuff.
Over the last few seasons I've seen the quality of the waste veg get worse as the suppliers are switching to worse oils and more palm. And I fear something is slightly off with the filtering as I was starting to get a lot more drop out even in good weather over summer. - I think there is a move to hot filtering unfortunately.
65p is still getting on for half what the pumps are and you can't buy 300ltr a go on loyalty
RE: chris_90's zx volcane project..... - Chris_90 - 14-11-2014
Not got a heater on mine just 10mm lines to pump all the oil I have currently was off a couple if different people on veg fourm unfiltered and I filter it my self, I've found out what my issue tho wasn't going though enough 1 micron socks now got 3 inside each other, now the oil is crystal clear and very thin probably cleanest oil I've had since being on wvo.
I'm moving on to bio now starting to build a possessor so eventually I can move on to more modern cars.
RE: chris_90's zx volcane project..... - Chris_90 - 11-02-2015
Advice on this
What's it worth
Citroen zx volcane
150,000miles
Mot July/august
Bosch pump
Center silencer converted to back box
Boost gauge
Powerflex black series wishbone bushes
Tow bar
Team heko wind deflectors
Gaz adjustable rear shocks
Needs tlc
Drivers drive shaft inner boot split causes shaking at low speed (new drive shaft with car ready to fit)
Needs tracking (powerflex buses throws it out) brand new track rod ends included with the car.
Knock from arb link 2 arb links included
Body work isn't the best (just bring honest) comes up well with a polish tho.
Can include some brand new adjustable koni shocks. And 40mm lowering springs.
Might be selling due to getting an estate for more room. Be nice to see it keep going but would brake if enough intrest!
chris_90's zx volcane project. what's it worth? - Sambarker - 11-02-2015
I'd say £750
But with jobs like driveshaft arb etc done

Rather sell it with out me having to mess with it, but I will if it means a price like £750.
I was hoping for £600 as it is, if that's fair?
chris_90's zx volcane project. what's it worth? - Sambarker - 11-02-2015
Yeah seems a fair price. Retro peugeots/Citroens are doing really strong money at the moment. I'd hope my 305 would be worth close to £2k when finished due to rarity condition and spec
