gazchill 0 Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 I've seen the two belts on a ZR1 charger replaced with a single belt which stops the two belts wearing at different rates causing the slips..... Link to post Share on other sites

binliner 0 Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 They are good chargers but wouldnt pay £1400... go for a ZR2 over a ZR1 Link to post Share on other sites
jaysVR6 2 Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 I paid £1250 for my ZR2. I bought it of some scrote who lives in Ipswich!! Fitted (with a little help from Tom telling us all what to do!) and completely reconditioned and chromed. Excellent charger in my opinion, shame it doesn't produce more boost, but nice and safe in my opinion and sound far better than a V Link to post Share on other sites
