parts are kinda hard to get. JG or Exospeed does camshaft regrinds, but other than that, Don't worry about an intake manifold unless you have other supporting mods to go with it (cams, tb, etc). I assume you have I/H/E already. Are you running a chipped or tuned ecu?

pretty much all cams that are avaliable are regrinds. type in JG, webb, or exospeed in google to find the websites.

i dont know about him but i loved the 2 that i had. the last one i had made 208whp with 7-8psi from a t25 turbo i only spent 1500.00 on the whole set up motor trans clutch turbo kit tuning and it ran really really good. until the new owner got high or something and tryed to run 15psi and blew it up.

just face it tree, dohc ZC's suck. lol

nah, they're great motors, but it's hard to see real power with them unless you go turbo. cam's would help it about 10-20hp i'd say, but turbo is where you're going to see the most power.

I've pretty much faced the face that my ZC isn't fast, but i love the fact that i get 32+mpg :yes:. And dont you have yours in a coupe? cause mines in an EF, nice and light so it feels a little quicker.

Dang!!! I can't remember the site, but there's a company that intake manifold adapters so you can use any d-series intake manifold/supercharger on the ZC. So search for that.

ZCspeed.com

is that wut ur talkin about darryl? i thought thats what it was...

and hit up h-t or www.thezcr.com for more info on the zc, you'll get more accurate info over there. doesn't seem like many people have/had a ZC on here.
