haha, mine's in 2WD at the moment, getting ready for a dyno hopefully......I'd have to be suicidal to give it too much right now. I hit it hard at just over 60kph the other day and it got sideways on dry road almost immediately. If I fang it with a slight ripple in the road right now its too much of a handfull.

chad, would be interesting to see how she does in 2wheel drive, id say nowhere too fast lol...not in a straight line anyways. Im up for hillzy when you are mate.

you'd be suprised how much grip it still gets, my coilovers a fair soft, so it grips well, wont even spin the rears when boost hits in second gear, keen as for the hills, might have to get Jenkies to organise another Gorge mission, but i think i'll keep it in 4wd, i seem to still get sidway with it on. :D

impressive pete. geez, mine is a handful with 260rwkw, let alone that much...can i ask where you ended up choosing to get it tuned?

I haven't decided yet Ryan.......I want someone who knows PFC's backwards but doesn't want my children as payment, lol

yeah I think my very stiff suspension doesn't help because it lets go of the rear every time in 2nd as it starts to boost and I don't think the Attessa Pro likes it too much.

If your talking about hills, im up for it when i get my suspension done, trust me i do know how to drive.. Tom was enjoying the nice easy drive cough cough this morning while we were late for school.

doesn't matter if you can drive out there! depends on if you can keep up to some of these nut cases :)

but Pete..... isn't it more fun breaking traction like that? :banana:

its ok if it keeps some sort of reasonable line, but this thing just snaps too quick to be fun so I'm looking forward to 4WD again

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
