ozy Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 i was just looking around the net and couldnt find any info on crash tests for early zeds. i know that these things werent as common as today where folks brag about their safety features, but maybe, there is something somewhere... id just like to see how a zed fails or does anyone have crash pics or is this all a little too depressing for my fellow Zedheads?

zr240 Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 Have a look in my gallery and you will see some of my racecar. It did have a alloy 4 point cage in it though. I think in a front or rear impact the zeds are ok but Im not sure how they would go in a side impact (the intusion bars in the doors are pretty small) Hopefully none of us ever test them! Ash Quote
xa1973 Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 European companys such as Volvo and Merc have been doing it for years, Western block companys started much later, its very very expensive to wreck cars!!! Check the net for info, all will be revealed Cheers Quote
ozy Posted February 23, 2009 Author Posted February 23, 2009 ive looked a few times on the net, but nothing satisfying. i feel that the doors look a little miserable, wouldnt fancy another side crash in a nissan. Quote
Administrators gav240z Posted February 23, 2009 Administrators Posted February 23, 2009 I'm sure I saw it on Zhome http://www2.zhome.com:81/History/history.html Mentions crash tests. Avert your eyes children! Good thread on Classiczcars.com http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9346&highlight=crash+tests Quote
