Jordo's Zed is Dead :(

Thanks, gents Will be doing a few things a bit differently. Probably going with PPE headers instead of TP's and spending money (eventually) on stickier tires rather than different wheels.

Thanks, gents

Will be doing a few things a bit differently.

Probably going with PPE headers instead of TP's and spending money (eventually) on stickier tires rather than different wheels.

That new intake project I had mentioned in other threads is still on, but moving slowly, so eventually that.

Also planning on koni's + swifts and a few other suspension mods that I have been accumulating... I'll share details as things get done for those who may be interested.

First thing I need to do, other than tune the shift speed and throttle response is get a baseline -- back to stock for the moment.

Heh heh -- eh, not the first toy I've managed to break in some way.

Oh, and if anyone was wondering, it's actually a line from an old Slits song -- it fits

Some new (crappy phone) pics -- tinted, body matched solar wing II, shiny EVO-R emblems, swift spec R springs, Koni yellows, and spacers (20 mm F, 25 mm R)












If anyone is wondering, alignment is set with -1.65*camber in front, -2.38* in rear (thanks, in part, to SPC adjustable rear camber arms), and +.1* toe all around -- feels like a go kart!

Better pics later on.

Baseline dyno on Saturday and then on to the power-ups
