Hi there! so that make 10.5 kg/mm in the fron and 9 kg/mm in the rear. Stiffer than I thought, interresting  Any pics of the front steering mod? Btw, I wanted to know how much mm does the steering arm move in each direction. I thing the astra steering rack can move 160mm in each direction. Something that could move more (like 200mm) would be more ideal for us. Hope you can make it to the KOE  Cheers |

Oh yeah, and did you improve anything on thw weight balance? Or you think it isnt so important. Im trying to make 50-50... And the other thing is, that Im trying to mount everything as low as possible. So my boot is goint to be cut, and make it deeper, fabricate a very low fuel cell, mount it very low, and the battery as well. Sorry if Im writing to much, but it seems you are way far ahead us Cheers |

Nice! Im running the same fiat engine, but with sidedraft carbs. Zola has the same setup, but with ~300° cams, big ports, big valves, etc. We are hoping for around 170 ish hp. I love the rear section EDIT: Is that a golf wheel arch? Guys use it here a lot like this: Imageshack - zorrowwwkepfeltolteshu Imageshack - zorro3wwwkepfeltolteshu Last edited by mancs; 07-07-2009 at 21:21. |

Why do you guys run so high compression? Yes I know that the cams need it, and it is good in general, but we always use a littlebit less compression, it makes the car much more "lighter", I mean that it revvs up better, it doesnt need special fuel, etc. Yeah, watched the pic again, but first it looked like golf arch |

|  rhis is my father's car... he was runnig with it ten years.... after many many chenges thew best result was with that compretion ratio with abarth cams but webber 48 sidedraft carbs dcoe... so when i started tu push uo that engine i belive that it was right to to something like my father did... i don't know if it was mistake but the engine is too powerful and it can rev up to 8000 rpm easily... |

I can quite honestly say I have never really been a fan of Ladas. That is until I saw this! Keep up the good work I'm looking forward to seeing more of this!
