well supra dude ur actually right, the car will beat our cars but its the driver that has to be able to use the car to its max capability! neways fords suck and skylines rock ps my dads got an M3 i think that would easily kick ur dads XR6 turbo with out even using 1st and 2nd gear haha

Its nice to see ur dad has turbo charged ford. Bout time ford realised what the japs have known for years on how to keep an engine light and still get good power out of it. But the fact is that no one here really cares how fast ur dads car is, i would be prepared to put my car on the line if you or him could keep up with me round Mt Glorious or somewhere similar if i felt like i had something to prove. If u have nothing better to do then to come on a forum and try and stir something or get a reaction u must lead a very boring life, maybe one day daddy will let u drive his car and then u'll have something better to do to fill ur time.

haha, it must be something like that.

newayz, back on topic, i hated my stocko rims, they were the first things to go. Umm i dont really know what else it could be, have u run it down the strip yet? how long u had the car? did u find it went better when u first hopped into it?

I havnt taken it on the 1/4 yet..

Ive had it for just over a yr and its always been like this, got it with 91km on the clock.

And yeah the only time i noticed any power increase was the night i installed my pod filter on a reallly cold night and took it for a spin that nite..

other than that i really didnt notice any real improvement over the cat back exhaust or filter.

thats wat i think anyway

unless im just paranoid :D

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
