Rezz can you tell me why those cars have stupitly fat flares,oil cooler's dominating the front,weird ass angle and length exhaust pipes and stuff.

Can I have a try at answering this one?

Because they can. :headspin:

Astounding... I mean for a moment there, I though you might've had some background information into the twisted psyche of the average Bosozoku/Yanki... Ta.

The Yanki are just trying to out do other Yanki, what with the outrageous modifications and all. Show off factor maybe? About the only mod that has any credit would be the oilcooler hanging out the front of the car, as this was widely used in the GTS racing category in the early 70's. Alot of the mods (flared arches, front splitters etc) were more or less racing mods back in the 70's, and the Yanki have just taken them out of proportion. The upturned exhausts are for maximum loudness (remember, these guys are tools) and some of them can spit flame, so once again, they're going for show-off/nuisance supremacy. Some of the mods are over the top, so I hope you can figure how these guys think from looking at those horrid Toyota TownAces alone...

But yeah, they're good for nothing tools most of the time, and they need suitable bosozoku (violent racing clan) type cars to back up their mentality!! :)

Did I flame 'em enough???:flamed:

**Edit: Heres a link to a game called "The Super Fast Friends Car King BU" which, just by looking at the pics alone and realizing someone can market and actually make money from this, should make people realize that Yanki are a force to be made fun of...

Anyone have any links or idea's as to where /how I can source the "The Super Fast Friends Car King BU" game? I have a chipped PS2, need this game bad!

    • How do you go about diagnosing ecu's that don't have data logging, is it more experience at that point and just trying out things that you think will fix the issue?
    • Stock O2 are basically useless beyond anything at stoich. Any misfire will also be seen as lean. The stock O2 also read a collective exhaust gas volume, not each cylinder. Sputtering and missing means not each cycle is firing, and some are. Which means even if rich, as shit, on cylinders as they miss, they'll read lean, but the cylinders that did fire will read rich, and combined, well, they can read anything from rich to lean.   Start with the basics before even going looking at sensor values.   Edit: I say the above, and that's coming from the guy with a few thousand dollars worth of scan tools sitting right beside me right now that I use frequently for my job.
    • I just finished up a manual swap and I have a 1999 S2 AWD automatic in my garage, depending on where you are located. I'm in the the midwest of the US.
    • I’ve heard it can be done, you need to redrill the holes where they bolt to the chassis and apart from that they are the same. I’ve never done it or know anyone personally that has, it’s just something I’ve heard 
    • If it's reading full rich prior to a misfire that gives one directional hint, if it's already reading lean, etc. If it's reading pretty cleanly stoichiometric then suddenly drops out from a misfire that suggests it's not air mass estimation that's the problem. Could be ignition, could be something more subtle. Could be the CAS has decided to start dropping out at random or the drive pin is worn leading to excessive lash and trigger errors. LTFT can tell you the same but it's slower to react and if this is a recent issue it might not have stabilized. STFT stuck in one direction vs fluctuating back and forth can be used instead but I like to read O2 voltages anyways and interpret directly. If the O2 voltages make no sense in general or are super slow to react it could also be a failing O2 sensor. There's no real error correction for failing O2 sensors in these cars.
