Thanks mate, i don't really know in all fairness, never raced one or even driven one for that matter, would be interesting to see how it faired up against one.

Thanks for the welcome, ayee nothing wrong with the hatch lol, im from Birmingham..no doubt theres some ZS owners this way too..

As for future plans im hoping for a custom manifold, full exhaust with dual exits and maybe a 270 piper exhaust cam and Z&F Remap.

Will be interesting to see what it does with all that lot it will deffo be quicker than a 180 then,and having driven the vvc and my own 180 I would say there isn't a hell of a lot in Pete.very different power delivery but damn quick.

I'm thinking that the lighter vvc would offset the extra bhp of a v6.

Very nice Mathew. :hi: to the site.

very nice mate and welcome to the forum . Dont think there would be that much in yours and a 180 . I had a little play with a 160 zr a year or so back now and to be fair not much in it at all dont know if the 160 was standard but my 180 is

Nice looking car.

The V6 has more torque so will pull better at higher speeds but the VVC will be more nimble at lower speeds, just as the ZR is.
