Nothing gets people on a car forum talking like "I have x to spend on a car, what do". Patiently awaiting the inevitable left field decision to go with something not mentioned by anyone.

dunno about the left field thing, also definitely no jeeps.

Because people like to inflict the cars they desire onto other people.

upgrade... he has a 7 and wants a newer car etc

he is looking at a 10 already so i thought i'd throw the 9 in the ring

also what birds said

/prioritylinesaustraya

what's with people lately? I don't want my hair ruined in my car, want climate control, want auto, want heated seats etc.

sounds like people got a case of the wimminz

if i buy a place, which is looking more likely with the rental place being a PITA lately. i want something fairly new that i can keep for a few years without having to spend a fortune on it or having a huge temptation to spend a fortune on mods.

had to laugh last night.

Went to get some fuel, (saw price did not laugh) bunch of Bros there standing round the mates new A5 4door coupy things all in their muscle shirts and shit, (turned out to be a smart move)

trying to impress the ladies, showing how swag they were.

Guy finishes putting in fuel, pays. about to leave...genius who jsut bought his car goes super pale..bros help him push car to the side of the servo...

guessing the TDI badge on the back and the fact the petrol station only stocks Unleaded might have had something to do with it tho.

    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 🙂 
    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
