ZS180 Daddy

The X Power Grey ZS 180 is being driven by "probably" the most famous ZS owner in the country and it may be hard to believe but 3 years ago when i first came across Dave Breen at combe he was my wipping boy ;) but this is the end result of 3 years hard work on the car that any engineer at MG -Rover would be proud of! shame they didn't come out the factory in this spec.

Both the cars have piper cams,manifolds,sports cats and stipped(no supercharger) but the grey one also has a Quaife LSD and a big brake kit.The owner timed his car doing 1.21s/22s which is quite fast for a road car at combe.

Brad-Do you still own the supercharged ZS?

hello buddy, how you doing ?

Still a good video isnt it but by heck we were slow back then ,lol.

Are you still driving the zs?:

7-9 secs is abit optimistic mate, but i do agree with him, you definately need to get on the pedal a little earlier, you should invest in a quaiffe also, i havent used or even seen one but i've heard they are the dogs.

its a good vid btw, would love a stripped out zs180, how good does it feel in the twisties??

[ZSeXtreme]

regular weight is 1235 kilos ,mines actually slightly less than 1000 kilos now.

I have removed everything ,its just a shell with an engine.

[TNBS]

What have you removed? Is regular weight around 1200kg?

[ZSeXtreme]

lmao,7 to 9 seconds a lap !!!what planet are you on,do you realise how much 7-9 seconds actually is !?

Trust me im pretty close to the limit and not even lewis hamilton could get anywhere near 7 to 9 seconds reduced lap time out of this car!.

I was doing 1.22 laps if that was able to be reduced 9 seconds that would put me at 1.13 laps ,the lap record for british gt cars is only 1.06,do you really think i could get within 7 seconds of a gt car in a road going mg zs!!!.

NIce video... if you want to improve your lap times get on the throttle earlier - your a bit late through the bends. Also the ZS180 has some pretty monster brakes as standard without any special pads so you can brake later than you are doing - practice these and you'll lose 7-9 seconds a lap.

The ZS features an uprated drivetrain and gearbox to handle the V6 - hence the noise... but its a nice noise.

[ZSeXtreme]

no its not the drivetrain ,its my tyres ,the car is perfectly quiet when on standard tyres.

[lardrat]

The whine is the drive train - a trait of the 180.

"he was my wipping boy"

Lmao!!.

Both cars are also on toyo r888's and x power springs ,but more importantly than any modification,both cars have Good drivers ,especially the Grey one !!!

Mine is now fast closing in on a kerb weight of 1000 kilos.
