Drew's ZS180

[R1CSO]

i was gona get a charger for my car, couldn't justify the huge price tag though.
Glad i made that decision looking at your graph.....your's with the charger is only about 15bhp more then mine without!

[Drew]

wanted to go past 200bhp, from what id read no-one had anything more than piper 270's, so bought myself a set of piper 285 cams. had them fitted as i didnt have the time. started and ran, but not very well. played with the idle a little. drove ok, didnt really make any more power! stayed like that for a while.

took the car off the road march '11 to play with it. got me a nice 220 turbo hatch to get to work and back..



looks good, handles a lot worse than i remember.

[ZS Phil]

wow! cant wait to see all that lot fitted, looks like a great project with not a penny spared!

Some quality looking parts there Drew. Shudder to think the cost of them all. The upper arms look far superior to the Moto-Build ones I have seen. The sort of stuff I have on my wish list! However I already have a house, three daughters, three cats and three dogs and no money!

I'm only too happy to still have my ZS after nearly 7 years of ownership.

Very interesting thread!!!
Some very nice suspension parts there. Few of the bits I have already collected for mine but that rear asr arb kit I havent seen before. Yum!
