Hey zedders... has any 1 got a link to this zed that i saw in a HPI mag DVD... its bright yellow slick top 2 seater zed with a built NA VG30... looked pretty stripped out and i could see a custom plennum with direct port NOS and 6 butterflys... had a lot of fibreglass stuff but i wanna read up a lil more... had full set of slicks and very stable take off.. time it ran was 10.65 @ 135MPH... damn not bad for an ATMO zed ;-) Jedi looks like you and I got more work to do to our NA's! Frank
yeah i got that yellow zed on vhs but no recording equipment to put it onto pc.. boy does it sound tuff
Its from HPI V5 and i just so happen to have it on my computer *naughty* It first appears at 17:25 and they do a small feature on it, if anyone has a program where i can put the video in it, cut out the bit i want and still have it as a MP3 i'll post it on here for all you zedders to see. Bloody thing spins through 1st and 2nd :zlove:
OMG ME IS WANT. try downloading Vdubmod. hopefully you can open up the clip and cut it out. http://www.free-codecs.com/download/VirtualDubMod.htm
It probably was this NA drag racer build by Escort Japan: http://www.escort-jp.com/gallery/detail.php?num=4
This is sooooo coool but what I want to know is what are al the things doneto achieve such power. I want some for my NA
there is more to it than that forged pistons and stronger rods,no doubt lighter as well for less rotating mass,equalling higher rpm available.... stronger spark courtesy of msd ignition and upgraded plugs,upgraded fuel system 550cc injectors(also used on lots of tts!) exhaust extractors and the big power adder.....NNNNOOOOOSSSSSS....yeah baby thats how you get an na cranking...lol one thing that does surprise me is that its running standard capacity from what i can tell,would of expected oversize pistons at least.....oh well im sure they know what there doing ...lol i have a tt but i still admire/appreciate this car,and doesnt the engine bay look tidy without the standard plenum and intake!
I id say higher compression has abit to do with it aswell, gathering from all the strengthened internals .
yes that is the car.. i can play the video on the tv and record it from my video camera if u guys wanna see it that bad?
please do so....i saw this car in a hpi magazine a few years back and it really helped spark my interest for zeds,it wasnt a feature just a small blurb and picture,and ive wanted to see it in motion since
