They look good mate, Its great to see people doing different things. What colour is your car by the way? Any more pics of it? Looks like a matt colour from that pic.

Re: Mk1 Carbon / LED rear clusters...
Its matt black...well..."Satin" actually!
I really must take some better pix since the bodywork has been sort of finished!
This gives a rough idea: think F-117 Stealth fighter.....
Its had new rear arches, drivers door and front wings, and is Waxoyled virtually everywhere that matters!
Next year: lots of tuning to do...!

Boo, you pinched my rear badge idea 
What have you done to the engine to justify it?

Re: Mk1 Carbon / LED rear clusters...
Mods so far?
AE101 S/C engine, Magnex SS box, K+N cone filter in boot compartment, with modded pipes, Water Injection, uprated brakes, removed intercooler so no pressure drop/heatsoak ...
New year......replacing the Roots with something....er...a little more efficient , Megasquirt 2 ECU, uprated fuel pump/injectors........and maybe a Pace I/C/ Spal fan setup.....?

Ooo..very nice. I've got 288 deg cams, throttle bodies and a GEMS ECU. Not running very well at the moment so tuning has been put back again. No idea what it's running but should be a bit more than the standard 125bhp.

Now cams and TB's appeal to me
I dont think i'll take my tuning much further as regards engine internals, though...
Everyone seems to be ditching the 4AG engine and sticking tubby/V6 lumps in the back!
It seems there is a craze for power, but the 4A engine in a mk1 chassis has loads of potential: I know that I can get a reliable 200-220hp out of my engine by next summer without spending really large amounts of dosh!
The 4A is proven in racing and can get 250hp NA when well tuned!
So I wont be dumping my GZE...I love it! 
Are your cams/ECU part of a"trakpac" from RAW engineering, by any chance?
When I had my NA a couple of years back, I was looking(as you do!) at how to increase power, and came across the trackpac, which appeared to offer 170hp from an NA for around £850?

Not from RAW. The cams and ECU are from eBay and the throttle bodies were imported from Japan.
