Bridgestone visited jeff's workshop when I was there in September and filmed the Ultima and the Temptress for their blog.

Hi all
I thought you might be interested in seeing a bit about the ZCars Ultima. Check it out from 2'.44" onwards (unless you want to see the turbo Hayabusa Carver!)

It's on Pistonheads.tv here: clicky
and on YouTube in HD here: clicky2

That's looking stunning Chris. You gave an overview of your chassis mods a while ago, can you give me details of what you've done overall?

Thanks Guys. It's truely been a labor of love.

I, like many other Ultima builders, have a long list of modifications i've wanted to make to my car to make it my own. I'll attempt to list them out once the car is complete but one of the last minute additions is the 2" hydraulic lift system. I already had the pushrod suspension in place so it made a lot of sense. I think the entire hydraulic system adds maybe 20 lbs to the car. The car also has a completely flat floor (extending front and back from the lowered cockpit floor) so my ground clearence is worse then most.

I'll add more videos in the coming days.

Thanks, Chris

Guys,

Here's a Ram Lift system I've been working on for some time now. The system is comprised of four 30mm ID x 50mm stroke custom made hydraulic pistons capable of ~1200 lbs each, and the pump is standard issue off of a lift gate for a utility pickup truck. Total system weight is ~22 lbs. This video shows the basic operation but does not exhibit the full range of motion which should be about 50-60mm of overall ride height lift. It maybe wishful thinking but the lower I drop the standard ride height the better my chances are for proper operation of the rear diffuser, under tray, and front splitter.

Thanks for looking, Chris
