What next?

yea meant induction kit got a bmc on mine well worth it, bit expensive imo, but the noise

Tyres, forced induction, NOS, Lightened balanced flywheel crank, forged Pistons, close ratio box, depends how big your wallet is.

If you are wanting to pursue something on track I have some suggestions....

• coilovers (prices vary)
• polybushed suspension
• mk2 Straights with 215/40 R17's for a little extra grip (just had mine fitted with Goodyear Eagle F1's - thanks EMS!)
• NOS (frequent recharges may be needed lol!)
• gas flow, polish and port the cylinder heads (can be done cost effectively if you get 2 spare heads and find someone compotent to do it correctly)
• rear lower brace bar from Motobuild (cheap enough)
• LSD in your PG1 (not sure on price but I have a low miles PG1 available)
• bonnet scoop for induction intake (working on that one when I get some spare money)

I reckon 200bhp up to 250bhp is more than enough power for the ZS........concentrating on getting that power to the tarmac as best as possible is where gains can be had.

Coming up to a tight corner and being able to drive through it quicker than you would expect is more noticable and more fun in my opinion than a car that is ballistically quick in a straight line and struggles when it comes to the twisties. The ZS is well known for it's good handling. Build on that with the small power gains and you can end up with a car that can put many 'better' cars to shame.

Best of luck on your quest James Hope to see you at a Kent Meet soon Haven't seen you in ages.

6-7 bhp...............I think you have missed off a few noughts there, I'm sure there is a supercar waiting to get out somewhere

polybushed suspension - where? I looked a while ago online and couldn't find them...

[Boot Hill Bandit]

Well there are plenty of places to try......probably best to contact 'Polybush' direct and ask....

Next time we are going on a track day I will give you a shout....it may open up a new path for you to try

Thing is.....from past experience.......with my karts......

I bought it end of 2004......used it in the last races to understand it....

Rebuilt it over the winter and came to the grid for 2005......and gave everyone a big shock......finished 2nd in class and 4th overall.

over the winter of 2005 we rebuilt it and developed it for 2006 and albeit a bit fragile......it was quicker than before and plenty of other area to improve in.....finished 4th overall again and lost 3rd by 1 point

with anything.........there is always room for improvement and development as new parts become available and lessons are learnt from weaknesses you encounter along the route.......

biggest thing to make your car quicker.........is the driver......and judging by 1/4 mile time......your reaction times must be pretty damn quick James ......build on that by going on track and you will further yourself as a driver or at least make yourself more complete.

Just don't follow me thats all.......I get quicker and quicker then crash that ain't gonna happen this time round though

Jim

well wont be a what next now
