where can I get an air induction kit like that one?
Gary

Direct from XPOWER. Virtually all of the bolt on goodies came from there.

S n R catalogue is here -

scroll down - is this the same system as yours, Gary?

and how, I wonder, does it compare to the Viper from Pipercross. Same induction method maybe. But at least the XPower version is bespoke for the ZR, which could mean more effective.

Unfortunately, I can't take credit for the ownership of the ZR. I have something else with just a 'little' bit more power ;o)

X-Power regalia and equipment will be on sale at MG Saloon Day in Coventry on Sunday 4th July.

I noticed on MG Rover's NZ website that the ZR, ZS and ZT are on sale there. Is that right? In Australia you can only get a ZT and a TF. I think NZ must be the only place in the southern hemisphere where you can buy a ZS - can anyone correct me on this? This follows a similar pattern with MG Montegos and Metros.

You can get ZRs in Mexico as well, but not ZS! (Useless fact there)

Matthew Semple

Yes, models on sale in NZ are ZR120, ZR160, ZS180, ZT180, ZT190, ZT-T180, TF120, TF135, TF160 at least.

And as far as I know, two SVs have been sold here in Auckland.

Followed a ZS onto the motorway the other day. Also 'borrowed' a brand new one from MG-R for the Dunlop Targa Tour last November for the week so they are definately available here :o)
