The Z3 was stroked (meaning it has a longer piston travel) to 1.9 liters instead of 1.8, so you wont notice that mush of a difference, just make sure the work was done correctly (ie, at a good shop).

cheers for the reply mate so im guessing it wouldnt be much faster than a stock m42 in that case? Provided that all the work has been done buy a proper machanic would these mods benifit me in the future? cheers
