My trackday is at Castle Combe, Im really looking forwards to it!
Im really torn at the moment as I would like to do the Reyland conversion using the Audi engine, but I like the V6 which is characterful and a nice engine with decent performance - plus sounds lovely with the ITG, but with my suspension and brake mods the car feels really underpowered!
What do you guys think?

Dont blame you! Its nice to have a track and road going car with all the comforts. Thats the joy with the 180. The fact it performs so well on track, especially with a few tweaks. It does deserve a bit more power.
Have you done the flywheel and diff yet?
The reyland conversion is a tricky one! I love the Kv6 it is a great engine just a shame big power cannot be had easy like other lumps.
Personaly I think it would be a shame to loose the V6 soundtrack, and it wouldnt really be a ZS180 with a different engine. Plus people wont be so suprised when you pass them on track
