Ok guy's...I know it's been a bit but here I am wanting to know....My Stage 2 460hp Turboed Hayabusa is comming along right nicely I must say.....The question is....Which chain are you guy's running on your Zcars ?? 530 or 630 and which brand and how are they holding up???? Triple zzz chain???? I'm going to be puttting some big hp to er and don't want to have any problems...Also are any of you guys running an automatic chain oiler ?????
I'll post some pic's of er if ya want....Cheers...Willieeeeeeeee....

On the hayabusa and other bigger bike engines they use a 630 chain, with that much horsepower even that will need constant maintenance and won't last long

The silver huddersfield turbo hayabusa mini needed the tensioning every time they went out for a few laps according to the owner

Piccies yes please

Cheers

Just going by the person who owns a turbo hayabusa mini said, I have no direct experience

I think there is a bit of competition between Zcars and Huddersfield Minis so.......

Huddersfield basically bought one of Z Cars first kits, with Holeshot Busa engine, then miracously they bought out their own kit a few months later, that looked pretty similar to the Z Cars one!
