beat all them in me punto HGT mate apart for 4motion never had the pleasure but a v6 4 motion times are 0-60 7.1 top 146 so it should of been close

 

Hmmm

BMW M3 E46
RS turbo * loads
RS Fiesta * loads
Honda type r`s
Other ZS 180`s(not stripped out ones)
Sierra cosworth

i gotta make mine faster u tried it on with any scobbies yet?

 

What wins?

Heres a twist to the question

What wins between a ZS180 and a 600Ti from a rolling start 20mph till top speed?
Specs

ZS180 1150 KGs 145bhp@ wheels 190lbf torque

600Ti 1355 KGs 160bhp@ wheels 225 lbf torque
What ya reckon then?
Kev

 

It has to be the Rover Kev :lol: :rofl:

 

"It has to be the Rover Kev "

Ok Keith, I'll put your vote down.I just want to gauge peoples opinions on the out come.

600Ti 1 ZS180 0

 

I think the greater spread of torque from the KV6 would make this one pretty close. Can't decide.

 

Well Kev Im gonna go with you on this one....


I BACK THE ZS180....


George

 

thought the ZS180 was 1220 kg ???
or is this one stripped??

 

Not many willing participants to date, but so far:
Beat
2 litre 16v calibra. (The one that every one dissed at Thruxton)
Saxo VTS
BMW 325i
Mazda MX6

Lost
EVO 6
Cosworth escort

I gave up quite early on the last 2, I just wanted to see what the power difference was. I know when Im out classed.

 

Well Kev, I know the answer to this one because I was there when you did this.

As for my scalps, please consider I live in Paris and they like the Diesel over here.
Mind you, they like to try there luck anyway.

Ferrari 350 (off the lights in a traffic jam in Paris)
Porsche 911 Turbo (off the lights in a traffic jam in Paris)
Audi TT’s both variants
Golf GTI’s
R5GTT’s
Peugeot
Renaults
Merc’s
BMW (they are a ****** pain in the bumper, you waist them they catch you up and still insist on more punishment ‘usually X5’s)
MG Z’s (way to much respect for each other, like shooting at your own troops)
Ford (sometimes its nice to humiliate people because I’ve had a bad day)
Loads of different motorbikes, there is a nice stretch of dual carriageway on my way home, both sides of it are protected with concrete barriers very long sweeping flat out in 4th right hander then it straightens for about 400 meters and flat out in 3rd left to right S bend change up to 4th flat out on exit. Not one of the bikes I’ve raced on this stretch has beat me yet, although on the exit they do pass me. (NOTE, I only do this in the very late hours on my way home from Paris when there are no other cars on the road).

180 Boy

This thread has certainly journeyed. Keep it up fellas, excellent amusement !

:crackup:

Im off to get myself a ZS - seems there's nothing safe on the roads whilst it is about. :unworthy:

 

180boy what bhp u running?

 

Done these on a regular basis
saxo vtr/vts why do they bother
vx corsa only because he had his main beam on me
escort gti nuff said
focus st170
bmw 316/318/320 just no point at all
audi tt

But the one who had a lot of nuts was the guy in a TF160 we were 2 abreast on a roundabout and he was sideways top respect,round two won,t be long i hope

 

"round two wont be long I hope"

byron,look again at Blah Blah-not for the faint hearted,take care.

 

i have only got a ZS120 what sort of stuff can i play with when its run in so i dont show myself up lol

 

Gnasher i do back off if it gets a little hairy and i don,t take silly risks,i have to much to loose and nothing to gain

 

how many miles u done greed

 

how many miles u done greed

Its got 1300 on it now but am still a bit weary about pushing it

 

I have played with a couple of cossies when in my espace (V6 2.9 145bhp), lost to one, the other blew his engine. I also beat a BMW B30 Alpina from a set of lights, 1/4 through a roundabout and another 1/4 to a drop in speed limit to 50 mph where I backed of to 50, he came flying past.

The best fun I have had in my MG Maestro 2.0i (currently waiting a T16 conversion, George call me please as your mailbox is full and you are never there when I call) was an EVO7 over about 10 miles of high speed dual carrageway with a number of roundabouts and traffic. He was much faster but kept being baulked by other cars and his inability to plan ahead, at one point I actully pulled past him in the inside lane. By the end of it he was 3 cars in front and pulled into a shop forecourt.

I should add I beat a Lotus Eliese over a 15 mile run once, he cut me up on a roundabout, he almost drove into a petrol station off another, he gave up after trying to mount a kerb.

 

i beat a 2seater honda thing today he had to change down gears coz i heard his exhaust but i still maaged to overtake him

 

seems to be more boy racers out now nearly everyday i ran a litle run in with somin last night was a interga type R a white one it was a single lane carrage way then went into two i stayed on the inside he was on the outside after about 1 mile i had to slow doewn coz someone was infront then he past if that car wasnt there i dont think he could have past me

whats the spec on one of these?

 

Integra Type R's are quick cars. I was going to get one but the ZS was £1000 less to insure (amazing - just 2 insurance groups difference ). 0-60 in something like 6.6 seconds, 100 in about 16.5 i think. Not a million miles from the pace of a ZS, but I'd really expect the Integra to be quicker.

 

Some of the Tegs at the G force day were putting out the same power or less than the ZS180's there.The modded one's were a lot more powerfull though but had lots spent on em.The Zeds killed em on Torque :guns:
Theres on local Teg who ive had numerous run- in's with and although it pulls a bit in the low gears i managed to do it in 4th the other week but it could be that he's engines shagged or he bottled it-who knows!
The one thing i do know is that Clio 172's are **** slow

14.6 second 1/4 mile with the only modifications being a de-cat pipe and an open K&N induction kit. I don't think my nice new blue canal boat will touch that 172's seem to vary in power output, much like the ZS180's. My first 172 was about 8bhp down on other standard cars, but my most recent one was much stronger. Always worth a try against a 172 as it might be one of the bad ones.

The extra torque in the ZS is really pleasant, i must say, but I am missing the top end power from the 172 Never seems much point in going over 4500rpm or so in the ZS. I'm trawling through the forum to see who and what can give it more go above 4000rpm.

I still can't see a ZS touching an Integra, but you never know how much the other guy is giving it i suppose.
