1.Can the Jeep wrangler body fit on the Zipzap SE chasis?...... I basically want the SE's capabilities in my jeep ZZ (and so i can use the new SE controller).
I dont know how the lights work on the SE chasis, but i figure that I could rig it (& mod my jeep body) to where I can make it work...I'm not completely sure though. I HAVE seen the button battery headlight mod & would rather not use a button battery, that I couldnt turn on & off easily.

The SE Chassis does not have lights. It has a plug. The SE Bodies have lights and a connector. The headlights come on when you're moving forward. The Tails come on when you're in reverse. The Jeep body will fit on the SE. You may be able to take the lights out of the body that comes with the SE you end up buying, if you're careful, and make them work in your jeep. If you're near KC, I might be able to help you out.

2.Are there any mods or ways I can get that would allow me to have bigger tires on my jeep zz? The tires that came with it are too thin (Looks like racing tires...jeep isnt a racing vehicle lol). I want slightly bigger tires so that it would look more like a stock jeep.

I don't know what the body clearance is on the jeep bodies. you might look at various toys at walmart that have similar size wheels to the jeeps, and see if any have rubber tires. You could also try looking at pencil grips or other rubber tubing type things, and slicing them into "tires" with a pair of scissors.

3. Is there a 68 camaro style body available for the ZZs?
|
No, but there's a 1967 Camaro SS / 2002 35th Anniversary Edition Body Upgrade Set (click here)

4. Is there any way to extend the range of the controller or car? I HAVE seen the coffee-stirrer/straw/antenna mod & the copper wire/controller antenna mod, but is there any other methods?

Aside from also replacing the antenna on the controller with one of a myriad of other telescoping antennas that RS sells, not really. There are other ways, like using a linear amplifier, but that's both expensive, and illegal per the FCC rules.
