Hi mate, I have not had the car corner weighted yet but i see what you mean regarding battery placement. My thinking was getting weight over the back axle and keeping it neutral for the time being.
-
Ill try and answer any of your questions guys! I would say Go DJI ronin or Ronin M or Movi, I have had these and they work very well. I have had others that did not perform and caused issues. I did build a 2 axis system a few years back along with a later 3 axis system but there were never 100% spot on

Nice to see chris harris test vs the one I filmed Good to see the P1 take the best lap time as we got so many people telling us we faked the results of ours as most tests have the 918 coming out on top!!
-
I was made up! lol
-
LOL... Didn't exactly get to spank it but just round the pits and roads was good enough for me!
-
Connected up now! (No where sold ring crimp connectors for this size cable! Ended up being ripped off for gold plated subwoofer ones from ripspeed ) Covers back on. All sorted in the boot now too!
-
This was epic for me Getting to drive it was just insane lol..
-
Both are incredible cars! Im quite luck to say i have been in all the big three recently (Laf,P1,918) and the Laf just has the edge for me Even if it is the slowest
-
It was only the head unit/amp and door speakers left anyway! Not i have the intercom that you can plug an iPod into then its not really needed now!
-
I want to get the car weighed accurately as its had loads of bits changed and removed but has extra weight from TT kit and cage??
-
From demon tweaks mate
-
Ill weigh some of the other bits that have come out too mate, only some light parts but still counts. Will remove door speakers tomorrow to save another kg or so Next big saving will be the passenger seat i think. Weight balance will be better now as I have lost 16.3kg of battery plus 6kg's of head unit etc, so 22kg ish from the front end today and gained the extra 16kgs way out over the back axle.

Little more done on the lightweight zed quest.. Dash centre removed. Passenger side airbag cover removed. Air bag unit. Air bag and mounts on passenger side plus head unit and brackets removed and dash refitted. Dash where head unit is removed will be blanked off with carbon fibre sheet. The head unit and air bag set up have removed more weight from high up and in the front end of the car. plus my battery relocation has helped this massively. Air bag unit head unit. Bose amp. Sound deadening from rear quarters X 2 Rear bulkhead plastics. weight removed = 9.470KG

Started a little work on the zed this afternoon.. Looking at mounting the battery holder.. Battery removed and trim off... Heavy duty cable run through bulk head grommet.. Into the car. Fed though into the boot area. Alu holder drilled ready for riveting. Car drilled and single rivet in.. Painted the holes just for extra rust protection. In place. Battery in place but not fixed down.. More work on this tomorrow when its light again
-
Few new bits for the zed today! Anti-sub strap for my 4 point harness to go tot 5 point. Light weight alu battery holder. Extra heavy duty battery and ground cable. Brake caliper temp strips. (See if I'm over heating the Motul brake fluid) Carbon sheet for blanking off the bose head unit space And a TRS soft tow strap for the rear to match the front.

Thanks mate TC MEDIA is coming on well!
-
Have a chat with I4N (Ian) he had the same problem and solved it. Thanks mate, Ive seen where its leaking in from now. Need to have a good look under the dash to sort it
-
Fitted my headset hooks Nice and out the way now when not using them
-
Very fun.. Just been out sliding about in it

Just a quick one guys, A few days ago I noticed the windscreen steaming up which was strange and found the pax footwell mat wet! So wet when i picked the floor mat up and held it vertical water ran out the bottom edge of it! I assumed a bottle of water must have had the cap lose.... Ive dried the floor mat out and again today its damp again? I've only just noticed this so not had time to see if I can find where its coming from yet. Has this happened to anyone else?? Thanks
-
Any one ever had water in the passenger footwell?? Just started to get a small amount of damp in the footwell carpet and mat??
-
Thanks man, Not sure on total weight I can't remember! Im hoping to get the car weighed soon so Ill post up that when I can! Power its 469whp similar torque figues.
-
Thanks man! Coming from you with a very cool ride means a lot!!
-
Fitted the intercom system today. Not full complete as its on a temporary mount until my Alu roll cage mount comes from safety devices. Music via iPod works but sound quality is rather shite LOL.. Still intercom works well and is clear but I'm getting some base level noise when no one speaks so Ill look into fixing this with a filter or voltage stabiliser. Its powered from a switched live 12v that used to power the old 12v socket behind the driver which is handy
-
Rather strange new mod for the zed today Intercom system for driver and passenger! The car is very noisy now and on longer runs over 10-15 mins I tend to wear ear defenders. This means music is muffled and talking to the passenger is hard with or with out ear defenders so I though this would be a cool mod for comfort and a little weight saving as I can now remover the bose head unit, door speakers, rear amp and wiring! The terratrip system uses a small 12v amp that has twin volume control for driver and passenger, AUX input for MP3 player, Line out to record you voice (for pace notes etc not that ill uses this! lol), Noise cancelling mic's to help cut out engine noise coming though the mic's and the ability to connect to a 2 way radio which could be cool for convoys etc! Ill install them soon and see what there like!
