Also i already have The Greddy 16Gs with wastegates etc and some Pace Side Mount intercoolers :D

 

What do you think?

Lee, what I would suggest is to work out what you want from the rebuild, are you hoping to get the most of the 16gs?. If so, the clutch youve got, is it good enough for the job, cooling? do you have an uprated rad, brakes, are they upto the job?

 

Best thing would be to sit down with your engine builder and go through all aspects, of the build and try and make sure all your parts are together before the build starts. As you dont want to be waiting on parts while the engine is in bits.

as the song goes, HEY BIG SPENDER, lol

should have bought my car and spent the money on mine lol

eagle rods? how much power will you need lol

 

good luck to you bud, deserve some good fortune, hope it works out well.

bazza, i have not sorted the breaks out yet but will be coming once i get the car back, besides the car will only be as fast as i drive it.

The clutch is the one from z1. Im not sure sure what power i can get from the above yet

Breaks being the oprative word, by christ I hope not.

 

B.R.A.K.E. as in to stop

BREAK as in to snap.

$5K aint that much, given the current exchange rate! Havin said that, thats a very nice shooping list u got there!!

Well it's certainly a decent little list mate, i assume from that and that you've kept the TD05's your looking for some decent power, the only downside with that, is the expense in other parts and looking at Z1's website, i can only see 1 clutch that would do for quite a while (RPS MAX) and 1 clutch that would do indefinately (Carbonetics twinplate) a lot would depend on the mapping of the car, if done for high BHP then the MAX would last some time, if done for pure torque, then the only clutch there would have to be the carbon one at another $2500 yikes and personally i'd pay the extra for the RPS version.

So i would strongley suggest not buying the z1 clutch and flywheel, though the flywheel on it's own would be okay.

Think you posted previously you had injectors ?

IMO as your looking at spending almost the same amount of cash again in labour/machining costs and a basic map to suit to finish this, it's not the route i would have reccommended for yer. Sorry if it's not what yer wanna hear, it's just i know how much pain and hardship you've been through the past 2 years by being involved with Zeds and a simpler,quicker and cheaper route could have been done.

That said bud, i wish yer all the very best with the project, i realy hope the wait is gonna be worth it for yer ;)

its duffer who's doing the car mate so i would have thought he knew which clutch would be ok lol.

Sorry mate, been seling clutches for bleedin years and i can tell yer for a fact, the Z1 branded clutch whilst useable, is totally unsuitable for a Zed of the spec your doing and using TD-05's, However it's your money and time not mine.

Good luck!

Oh and LOL
