Hey gang, just wanted to check in and say hello as well as to provide a quick update. I've been really enjoying developing my race bike and it has come a long way. A lot of cool little trick stuff is going on under the hood of this beast and more to come. There have been a lot of changes to the Ohlins suspension and braking system. Somehow Brembo comes out on top, big surprise? :)
The next big upgrade I have lined up is Kawasaki kit race ECU/Harness, which will allow me to mess around with just about everything from fuel maps, timing, traction control, to engine braking. I can't wait to dig into it next month. I'll include a few recent action photos from Laguna Seca below.
Very glad to see that the ZHP community is going strong. I miss my ZHP and all the joy it brought me (when I didn't have to sleep under it). I also miss hanging out here with you guys. Sniff. Funny story, my neighbor couple (who own an e46 wagon and sedan) approached me recently wondering where my ZHP was. When I told them I sold it, they were disappointingly shocked and said that if they had known I was selling it, they would have bought it from me. Ahh :facepalm. It would have been so nice to see it parked outside every day, even if it wasn't mine. Especially in the hands of e46 lovers. Oh well :)

Hey Giya! :coolpic
Looking forward to see some cool mods to the race bike! Might as well keep this thread alive one way or another. Hope all is well in Cali.

I'll just leave this right here for now :)
So I picked up my race ECU setup from a friend who used to race the same bike. Unfortunately, before retiring from racing, he had crashed the bike and it caught a small fire (gas tank hit the pavement). As a result, the harness (which race ECU requires) got a little torched. I was hoping to possibly rebuild it but the branch that connects up to the injectors is pretty much toast. So I'm out on a hunt for a harness, which isn't hard to find but I'm just looking for the right deal. This obviously isn't stopping me as my current stock ECU has been de-restricted and re-mapped on a dyno and is actually pretty good. It has 3 power modes whith different levels of aggressiveness. The downside of it (and this is the reason for the race ECU) is that I can't make any changes to it. Even to increase idle speed, I can't do it! Drives me bonkers.
