That was was a complete car design tho, rather than just chucking in a bigbhp motor into an otherwise unmodified car.


The k conversions would be hard work with lots of custom parts.

The b16 motor such as used on the mb civic should be easy enough? The b18 is essentially the same thing as found in the teg (which is similar also).
The b18 nasp will tune to 285bhp (I know of one out there and its fast)

Problem with a fancy honda motor in the zs is it will always be a 4/5 door zs and carry the weight, the honda eg/ek/dc2 came as 3 doors and were lighter, the eg weighing in at sub 900kg.
