E30 Zone

so none got a impressive time to report?

http://www.classicrsfords.co.uk/quartermile.htm

got a good list going always being updated but its a bit thin on info where modified zimmers are concerned

So c'mon guys get submitting

ps angel eyes is not an accepted modification to be listed

think Gaz shocks do similar kit and much cheaper

(for those that don't know Gaz is owned and run by one of the original founders of Leda)

was here at the start
still pop in now and again just to keep an eye on you lot

there are still quite a few of the original members that still lurk about

Turbo it Simon,. I need the work :lol: lol :o simon i think the drive train will be fine but that prop doughnut issue could be resolved with a custom one piece prop perhaps? that guy with the cossie engined tourer is still running on standard LSD rear diff with no probs, obviously its all down to t...

Ahh yes i remember that car i still stick by my not impressed with 2.7 N/A power then :o i went in the white one owned by michael we convoyed to santapod with Ste and michaels was faster and was supposedly putting out 240bhp then. seem to remember ste had issues with his at the time though. Fact rem...

nope not had a ride in karans
what power is it putting out?

Si u have the crank to take the boost use if wisely we need a high boost M20 lump on here and a 2.7 is perfect for the job i think. don't waste money on lightweight flywheels and lumpy cams just build up the engine as standard with a worked head and a hybrid T3 turbo. i seen and been in a few of the...

chip your a legend

Si
low comp and boost is the future save the money and fit a standard cam and get a turbo conversion would work well on a low comp 2.7

lol glad the parts suited they have had rave reviews

catch ya soon

leave it to rust imo

buyer beware indeed
although the fact the car was a insurance right off should have been clearly stated in the auction as it affects the value
i would personnaly never buy a car without viewing it especially not for that money.

But live and learn ehh

Having sampled the Goods and having known Ant for quite a while now i would highly recommend him to anyone

Turbo E30.............. its the future

Also had a little spin in the Turbo Ant special today winkeye (Cheers Ant) also my first drive of a E30 for over a year :mad: My report... Idle spot on and general drive is superb still a few little kinks to iron out but i am sure Ant will get there. Because of the low boost application it boost ear...

Full rebuild on a cossie engine can be done cheaper than u think
Ãƒ”šÃ‚£1500 all in

try and rebuild other turbo motors for that money

the flat 4 engine idea would be different but they are not the best for tuning also i think you will have a nightmare with the steering rack

check the wheels themselves for buckling common problem with our crappy roads

also were the wishbone ball joints checked for play? not the antiroll bar ones. and any play in the wheel bearings?

Get an M30 not a sports box, short shift up at 5k and it will still be pulling like a bastard when the next gears in :twisted: lol thats true but it feels like its not trying hard enough mikes E28 535 trackcar still feels like your popping down the shops even when your flat out round a racetrack :w...

keep us posted mate

i think it should be in the 12's if you can get it to launch

i am right and everyone else is wrong

lol

sport deffo only manges 55mph in 2nd on the limiter well my old one did.

and i have driven a boggo 325 and that deffo did just over 60mph in 2nd

So whens the 1/4 mile testing?

and more to the point whats the best time recorded by a zone member so far?

The only reason a standard 325 box gives a better 0-60 time is because u can hit 60mph in 2nd you can't do that with the sport box so have a extra gear change hence it ruins the 0-60 time But the sport ratio's with the 3.9 lsd are perfect for a tuned M20 it will always be in the sweet spot i tracked...

fuzzy
i am guessing it breaks traction before it breaks the diff then

you gonna get it up the 1/4 mile and get some performance figures? could be the fastest Zone member perhaps

Novel idea
think a nissan skyline engine would be even better though

great job

its the conversion i have wanted to do for 3 years now
quick question

are you still running on the standard rear diff? LSD.

That V8 M3 looks the business see that featured in PPC mag
LS1 engine is a peach and actually very light for a V8 as its a all alloy version

mine owed me Ãƒ”šÃ‚£1000 not including the tax and insurance
but i never fitted a rollcage
but costs soon mount up wait until you start adding the costs of actually using it on track

Strada has the good old 2.0 twin cam lump in it circa 135bhp on twin 40's (tuned easy to 175bhp) was running on colway F2 road legal slicks (excellent tyres) i was lucky and the owner james let me have two sessions driving the car 8) Got to say it was the best handling FWD hatch i ever driven and we...

Fozzy

i laughed so loud at that pic i woke the dog up

when did adam take over the zone then? (been away for a while)

what happened to steve?
