Mais non il déconnait, c'est par rapport au message de "asiat30" qu'il dit sa. Ben ouais, pour le peu de chevaux qu'elle développe, elle en fait 180 quand même....
the kv6 engines arnt the ones with the head gasket probz. its the kv4 with the v4 light aluminium head that tends to blow if thrashed from cold and not looked after, kv6 i find are very reliable engines, abit lazy when revving but you get nice low down torque from any gear.
Correct except there was no KV4 - K4. Although they did successfully race them in BTCC in 2L form and they proved quite reliable - they even managed quite a high placing in the table. The reason for the 'lazy' revving - the long stroke, short stroke engines like those used in Hondas S2000 have a short stroke but rely on high and instant revs to produce power and acceleration.. down side is not enough torque.
My rover kv6 sterling has 175k miles on it now never had any head gasket problem has never had a service starts 1st time and goes like stink got a pic of me doing 130mph at 4.5k revs (private track )wasnt even breaking a sweat the engine is fantastic when rover went bust i bought a new engine for a spare just in case lol
i have just fitted an induction kit and have booked it in with superchips in salisbury. been told the chip adds 10-12bhp and induction kit 5 bhp. what will this take the 0-60 time down to. thanks
Be careful with the superchip! 10-12bhp is optimistic, especially for around 300quid. Second, the superchip is preset to remap a standard ecu, on a standard car. Generally you should do ALL the mods you plan to do, and then get the remapping done. Superchips cant make a custom map to accomodate your modifications
PS, Dastek do can do a custom ecu remap. I'll be taking my zed there eventually, but I'll finish my list of other mods first. There's no point getting an ecu remap, and then adding more mods - the chip wont accomodate them.
what is the top speed of these cars. just brought one and have had it to 130 no problem and it still felt like there was 10-15 mph left in it. and what is 0-60 mph
The ZS180 is based on a Honda platform with double wishbones and is lowerred 20mm with gas shocks so it handles very well. It's real advantage over (any) car at this level is a V6 - all its rivals like the Focus ST, Clio182 and Civic VTR have high revving 4 cylinders which this engine walks all over.... it will have a better lifespan and is smoother on a cruise. Sensational.
Yes it's true, just at the beginning of a motorway, with 2 people on board and any luggage. But I didn't made it for top speed or espacialy to show performances, but for sound and show how long must be the gearbox... sight...
great engine, very good car, i ve a rover 45 , the look is the same

seems pretty fast, careful not to blow your HG with the high revving.

Before someone else comes out with yet another stupid comment about head gaskets, you may wish to get your facts right first.
The V6 does not have head gasket issues, only the 4 cylinders are prone.
If you'd have done a little research you would have known this and you would not feel like a idiot right now.

standard top end 145 0-60 7.3.
i think its booked at less than 145 but can achieve standard
