Posted October 15, 200519 yr All i can say is Ryan and gregg and the gang down there have worked absolute magic im not a 20 year old novice i know my cars and i know when something has made a remarkable difference ....the unorthadox underdrive pulley kit and RPS lightened balanced flywheel do not IMHO make the car feel rough or uneven it has turned a very fast car into a very free revving motorway ( and traffic light :)) ) flying machine, it seems to have livened up the whole car akin to having lost 200 kilos off the rolling chasis, its more dynamic and feels like a rottweiler straining at the leash it just wants to rev and spool those turbos up, for anybody considering this mod ........just do it its worth every penny and makes the car feel like a samurai kitted 240z but faster ..much faster especially at 70+ mph and accelerating throttle response is greatly improved also from what was once the same in the handling stakes as a big red, tail happy spaniel at the mere thought of a white line or cats eye its back end was all over the place ...they have turned my car into a 160 MPH limpet with the new shocks and Eibach springs ( excuse the dyslexic keyboard ) the zed now feels very forgiving , ( watch that statement come back and bite me in the arse later on in the year ) and inspires confidence and i pushed it on the way home like i have not done since buying it 2 years ago ..i cant thank those guys enough ...i will even forgive him for picking me up in the poopra at swindon train station ..nice one Ryan and thanks again .......by the way it goes a lot lot LOT faster when it has petrol in it .....Ryan knows what i mean :rofl: ;) :bow: :bow: :bow: :bow:

October 15, 200519 yr Nice one bud shame the summers over not yet - been driving around today with the tops off :hyper: :D
October 15, 200519 yr Author maybe we should form a group within the club like the dark side :)) ..took it out for a blast today .....even when sideways off the lights after too much throttle its totaly controlable and predicatable ......i am very impressed ..dont think i will ever sell this car ...........you never know one day they may well appreciate in value ..but i doubt it somehow .............had a chav in a pug 106 gti trying to race me and show off to his grilfriend ..what a pillock !! as i was overtaking him normaly ,he booted it and the response from me was down to second big bootful of 350BHP and nearly sucked his doors off.....hope his chav bint gave him stick for having a slow car and a little tadger

October 16, 200519 yr RPS Sport street kit with RPS lightweight Fly combo £685, with the lightweight underdrive pulley and belts from SGP £125 or the Unortodox £130 or you can go for the full Unorthodox set (4 pulleys) £250 with belts. Fitting for a clutch and fly should be between £170-£200 and underdrive pulley and belts from around £50. hth cheers smithy
October 16, 200519 yr thanks smithy :hyper: next on my list if ryan says my car is ok p.s what if the cars a auto
October 16, 200519 yr thanks smithy :hyper: next on my list if ryan says my car is ok p.s what if the cars a auto then you wont need a clutch and flywheel ;) obviously you can still have fitted the unorthodox crank pulley and pulley wheels
October 16, 200519 yr Author in my honest opinion its a great mod i was dubious at first after reading threads of lumpy tickover and harsh engine charecteristics ..but there were no ill effects ..zip ..nada ..nowt ..bugger all ...nichivor ....just loads more useful revability quicker power delivery ( much quicker ) and unbelievably more responsive to the right foot ......
October 16, 200519 yr Oh my god im doing this this week :hyper: Allthough i have the RPS 6 puck.Also 555s and GT28R turbos to fit while im there.Its going to be fun driving it with all that lo t on as its still got a auto in at the moment.Itll be like a new car. :hyper: :hyper: :hyper: :hyper:
October 17, 200519 yr cant agree more about the lightend and balanced flywheel, great mod :D Ditto :bow:
October 17, 200519 yr tbh steve you would not have problems with the unorthodox pulley as its pretty much the only one that is balanced correctly and within spec,seen a few cheap ones from ebay tested at an engineers a couple of grams out,dont sound alot but spinning at 7k rpm its a lot more,unothodox are spot on almost
