Yeah it's good, handles crazy good and brakes are awesome. 

It's cool having a new car with heaps of modern features with an old school feeling turbocharged engine & manual gearbox.
The turbo lag and when it hits makes it feel faster than what it is, which in a way is good for the street. Once I'm nearing the end of warranty will do some mods surely, but for now happy with how it is, maybe just get a catback exhaust soon. 

160awkw? not sure :D

Just mod it already, no need for warranty in one of these subies.

They're pretty reliable.

All good. I bought what I needed for $11.Still got a gremlin where with one of the rear parkers plugged in, it prevents the brake light on the other tail light from working... :confused: I've got a homemade CAD wiring diagram from online, but doesn't really help narrow things down.

My $400USD venture into various crypto is now worth $570USD in under a month. Take that bank interest rates!

It's a bit confusing where values can be estimated/defined to USD, or altcoins against Bitcoin or Ethereum. So with bitcoin rising so fast, it looks like the altcoins are dropping, but against the USD they're increasing too.

What else are you on?

I’ve doubled in probably 7-8 weeks

I've heard mixed reviews of the engine reliability, not as bad as the Focus RS headgaskets though :O 

It'll be catback first as no tune required then down pipe intake tune once I've saved enough side cash to help fund a engine rebuild if that happens :P

not a bad idea actually...

Apoc, Switch, Oracle, Trinity, Cypher, Dozer.

Very cyberpunk. Much anarchy. Such rebellious.

 

So some amateur car photographer posted a photo of the gloria and put it on instagram 6 months ago, mate tagged me in it, nek minnit she inviting me to a "secret cruise" in 2 weeks in Craigieburn. I cant see the facebook event to suss out who is going, but is this how kids do car meets these days? invite only. I mean, I am VIP, but driving through northern suburbs with P platers is not my idea of a Sunday arvo well spent.

 

Edit: think ill buy this and put it on my fridge

Yes, everyone is a bunch of invite only elitist flogs who are scared to have their idea of "this is a nice car" challenged.

I now have cancer from reading about "secret cruises" in Craigieburn for VIP cars.

You can attend those smashed gearbox or beaten by Birds meets


The "I stripped first when I launched it" cruises? followed closely by the "I got a built gearbox and a tough clutch after stripping first so I blew up the diff when I launched it" cruise.

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
