zakspeed...

[5hane]

say some one could get hold of a certain zakspeed engined mk2 flat front rs2000, how much would all that kit be worth ?

 

any one clued up on zakspeeds that could tell me what these engins are/have in them (steel bits ect.) power output, price for an engine..

 

 

o, if a certain zakspeed car has a solid floor, a certain harrier might be up for sale (dont pm me about this atmo though)

 

 

thanks

what Zakspeed is it .. Gp2 , Gp4 or Gp5

 

Theres only 2 surviving Gp5's that I know about. One is being rebuilt and is almost complete, and this is one is a Gp4 that was upgraded to Gp5. The other one is the press car.

Havnt seen a genuine Gp2 or 4 car for many years,

 

Gp2

Engines where normally BDA with Kugelfisher Injection, around 275 bhp and a lifespan of 1 race before a rebuild was needed.

Bodyshell .. standard apart from Gp2 Zakspeed arches.

Suspension .. coil-over mchpherson struts and the rear had a solid link into the front spring eye, the rear part of the 'spring' being plastic, the top links where antitramp bars .. coinl-overs in turrets did the springing, the props where split as the bodshells couldn't run diff/prop tunnels and axles where Salisbury 4HA's or possibly 5HA's , its hard to tell from the avalible pics. Used a Panhard for lateral movement.

 

Gp4

Same engine and transmission except it was allowed shell mods so they had proper 4 linking and a Watts link, the arches where wider versions of the Zakspeed kit that was fitted to cars over here. The shells where normally flatfronts.

 

Gp5

 

too many mods to list, and i very much doubt you would see one today for sale. And if you did have one of the Genuine built from scratch Gp5 cars the thing would be falling apart from aluminium fatigue .. but a clue to if its a geniune gp5 is the fact that the only bits from a mk2 that they used was the roof and the A, B and C pillars. If it has a steel floor its a copy or a Gp4 with the Gp5 body kit and TC engine of 1400cc or 1700cc.
