nah i was on the freeway going north (on the on ramp near the city) and it was an 80 zone (however i thought was 100) and because no one was in front of me, i gave it a bit of stick. Because i didnt see them (they were well behind me), i just kept going faster. They had to acclerate to WELL over the speed limit to catch me (i wasnt running and they knew that).

They were nice guys and said i was at license loosing speeds blah blah blah. Which i was (so no point getting upset at them)

They reduced the speed down a bit so i wouldnt loose my license etc.

THEN they said theres a time and place for everything and havent i heard of ISD's WTF!

yeh that was the odd thing. I just played dumb and said i've never heard of them or never been.

I mean the freeway, with little traffic is one of the safer area's to speed. I could have been booting it down a suburban street with kids playing (which i dont)

Ohh well shit happens.

Shuto boy. my mates wrx is phucked. He got a quote to fix it using a JUN stroker kit and MOTEC. 19K all up!!!!!!!

    • 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.
