Hi
I have been on the site for the last couple of months and thought it about time i posted up some pics of my z900
Bike has a 636 rear end and a ZXR750 front end
J model head with the older style rocker cover adapted
Autronic SM4 injection
TDO4L Turbo
Frame Gusseted and Braced
Hope you all like
who wouldnt like that??
ps- chalky loves u [:X]
Rev the fucker!!!!!
Turbo lives up under the rear here is the pic
Wow thats horn!
Love it! Welcome aboard Jaffa!
Welcome abord mate,
nice work there, any chance or seeing more of the turbo instaliation
Born again Juvenile delinquent
Very tidy,
The only thing that may give away its power adder is the airbox,and that could just be a custom item to match the front and back changes.
Do the handling improvements help get over the old skate, skitter and flex the z9's had when turbo'd?
That's magic Jaffa !!
What a way to retain the original style and lines of the bike with all the good bits added on !
Does the colour choice have anything to do with your name ?
What does having the turbo so far away from the cylinder head do to the boost characteristics? Would that give it a bit of lag while the engine pumps up all that pipe?
Man, that is nice !!!
Welcome aboard JaffaZd, neat job with the turbo, did you build it yourself?
I see you are a fellow Victorian. If you check out the events page, we are having a get together at Winton raceway on the 11th of August. the more the merrier.
"It's the eighties and I'm down with the ladies"
seriously tidy unit there mate,welcome to hell.
WOW! love it mate, very cool...
Cough! hmmph er for a Kawasaki... lol
So Sweet...[^]
thanks for the inspiration to keep going with my 750turbo
THAT is amazing. really tidy unit looks old school while getting all the good gear!
OOOOOHH YEAAHH ! []
Welcome JZ, Sweeeet ride mate, tastefully tough !
Where abouts in Vic you at?
Fuck mate! Where have you been hiding? Welcome aboard and I just have to say that is one awesome bike you have there. Anyone who knows me will tell you I love the Z1 shape. Always wanted to do the GSXR11 lump swap model like I saw in England years ago. Best looking bike ever. (well, almost). Het Tony, have you got the photo of the maroon Z I'm on about. Streetfighters mag, about 1993 I'd say.
Thanks for all the great comments
(03gixxer) yep can grab you some more pics of the Turbo installation, I will be away for the next week so will put them up when i get back
(Booster) the handling is still not up to modern bike standards but it does nothing nasty lets put it that way , i'd say it is 90% of my TL1000s for handling but leaves it for dead for HP in all areas
(Rocket) yep power comes on strong from about 4500rpm and boost builds steady , it is more like NA performance with the turbo mounted back so far, still has a savage hit but nothing unrideable, It is also the heat loss in the system that seems to add to the boost delay after a couple of squirts boost come on quicker.
(Turbokat & Iceman) Been following your post on Winton , i am in Wodonga so not to far from the track at all (50 mins), don't think i will be around for this one but count me in for the next, i will probably rock up on the TLs and still bring the z900 for a few laps for fun. Never done any track work before so it should be interesting.
(Iceman) yep 100% built by myself, including the motor and exhaust system all in a back yard shed
I forgot to add to the top post that the motor is a 1327cc kitted
The Carbies are really dummies that have been gutted and sleeved the butterflys are still in place and the injectors are hidden in the top hats, U can just pick the fuel rail feeding them.
Also running some high lift cams but am not happy with these Camshaft performance is great but they are to noisy on the shimunder buckets , Anyone played with old school 2v motors with camshafts / Turbos who would like to throw some advice my way.
Thanks again for all the comments ,. won't be around for the next week so cya when i get back.
is the centre of gravity low on that like the 1100 katana?
i love how the kat sits into a corner and u are right on the ground
really looking forward to putting the modern rolling stock on and getting some diablos [:P]
but i swear i didnt even notice the turbo setup til now
fucking excellent mate!
Rev the fucker!!!!!
That is a very nice bike.And hello.
Nice I like it. Neat trick with the carbs. How do you find the SM4?
Awesome looking Zed mate,love it.
If your looking for some info on cams etc for the turbo post on WWW.kzrider.com there area few turboed zeds on there and a lot of info.
Cheers
Dave
