The main reason I have 3 Zeros is that you start with a $120 chassis and can upgrade or replace parts at your own pace. 2 of my Zeros are like yours, pretty much fully upgraded, but as I said above, don't assume that just because a part is alloy or CF that it can't be the cause of the problem.
You have a good point there, I was even considering trying the lower deck that came with the kit, I would have tried the upper deck but I loaned that to someone.
I was even contemplating on buying another S kit, build it to out of the box spec and then try adding the alloy & cf parts one by one. But as before, I'm not willing to invest a great amount of $ & time unless I'm absolutely sure that will fix the problem, as I'd rather put the $120 towards a different car.
