Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172
Just found that video on youtube today and thought i know that car, the scooby was driven by my mate lol not even his car it's only a standard wrx though he must of tried pulling your leg about power but i love the video mate nice car!
I'm not back in huddersfield, Im just unfortunate enough to live there haha, but are you all good mates having your own meet or just a huddersfield meet with who ever?
ye thats it they do say take it easy just not too easy, so dont drive like a granny, and dont drive like you stole it and it will be all fine!! C W worded alot better than me haha
as far as i know the ecu learns to your driving and doesnt let u use the cars full potential if u drive too slow and use low revs from the off but i may be wrong im not sayin im deffo rite gaz may be rite it's just what i heard when i bought my motorbike from brand new that is what they told me...
Its all about how they get driving from new cause they learn, if u drive too slow your engine will never be loose free reving if u drive too fast the car will be faster just not as reliable in the long run drove my mums fiesta 1.25 down motorway today, some t*sser in a 316 beemer just kept...
gotta 'lol' at some how peaople are putting 1.2's any where near a 172 in there minds, i have a 172 i then drove a 1.2 16v and to be honest you really really cannot try say that it would be that close on a track my 172 handles alot better and tbh honest 100 more bhp comes into play a fair bit...
nono actually inside the unit, apperently you shud just be able to see the solder that has broken and thats obviously the fault, but i just havnt had the time to get round to doing it tbh
well i hav'nt done it myself but the lad who told me about the problem said to send it off as to resolder it is realy hard because it's only 1mm wire or summet but i suppose if you get an iron with a sharp enough tip you could open it up and try it yourself!
well iv got a pioneer head unit and apparently there known for the earth in the head unit goes, if it's less than a year old i think you can send it off and get it fixed for free, mine did the same thing still hav'nt got it sorted.
Always said id prefer a mk 4 meaner car mk 5's look like a hair dressers car but this is a nice car love the wheels and i think the photo's are good not best you've ever seen but i like them.
O ye he said it was very fast he said he'd just put his foot down an then saw the intercooler and fort s**t thats got something special haha i kno thats what he wants an ST far from any other with stripes and stickers every where, but he's been telling me t start saving for something like that...
Well ye i said it was faster he said he got arsed off line but said if they were going faster he cud of caught it because all be 250 brake but 200 torque, the st has around 330 torque
Ye that was my brother was it a blue 1 slammed on coil's bbs's on?? if so it was him, it's kicking 270 but he say's it was awsome to hear it, begging me to do same to mine haha
Ben stevo172 did you race a blue focus ST slammed on coily's last nite near white rose area?? if you did it was my brother haha he said your car was a far bit faster haha and his is running 270 bhp aswell!! he said it was nice egging me on to do sumet like that to mine now :D
Mine was doing that and last nite i rapped it in towels to heat it up because my brothers mate said it worked on his and then i realalised i hadnt turned it on so opened up the towels and turned it on and it worked :S Id try the towel trick tho because it wont void warrenty as it hasnt been...
