Fess Up!

[Roy]

Im just curious...how many people come clean when they have had a problem with their car?

Be it blowing a motor, be it crashing a car, or simply claiming you are running something you aint & vice versa.

I find it disapointing from time to time that the whole story isnt told...if only for the fact that ppl could be spending/wasting money trying to achieve the same thing when the reality is the facts arent at hand.

Isnt the whole point of this Forum to share the good and the bad, as quite often more help/assiatance can be gained from hearing the bad

Anyway...

Well, I have no qualms about sharing the bad - accidents, breakdowns etc - talking about it's the best way to learn new things IMO.

But as for the good stuff, I feel it's probably not a great idea to go announcing to the world just how many goodies you have stuffed under the hood or in the trunk. After all, this is an open forum - anybody can read, right? Food for thought anways..

I find it nearly humourous all the troubles I have had and I do post them.

I had my ecu installed about a year ago and the longest I have had the car on the road for is about a month.

Soon after the ecu install it blew the inlet manifold gasket, so back it went and I decided to upgrade the fuel system while the plenum was off meaning I could run more boost.

Got it back and after about two weeks the coils died. Went back in again to upgrade ignition system and got it back last Thursday.

Drove it around for two hours and pretty sure I damaged 2nd gear as its whining its arse off. Didnt drive it Friday but took it out Saturday night just to cruise around. That was fine for about an hour and then it started to sound like a WRX coughing and farting everywhere. I checked all the obviuos things and cant find anything so called a mate with a tandem where its still sitting on waiting for some time for the 100km round trip to Bayswater.

There you have it. How many Hail marys will fix this curse I have Father Roy?

Hey, i thought i deleted this thread:confused: It seems to have deleted the poll section, but left he rest..???

Anyway, i good drink this weekend will purge the demons on my shoulder:)

[WazR32GTSt]

my jedi powers sense a lot of hostility in you recently, Roy

... hostility leads to hate... hate leads to anger... anger leads to the dark side

(yes, i just saw starwars)

what was the stimulus for this thread?

[Roy]

Yeh...meh, each to their own...i think i need to worry more about myself and forget what others are up to:)

Hi Roy

I have to agree with you

I dont know how many times I have read of 200rwkw with only an exhaust and pod filter :bs!: even allowing for bad dyno results I cant believe these figures. I guess its an ego thing.

I admit I dont always tell my wife the cost of some of my mods, but on the forums I tell it as it is. 220wkw isnt a lot, but I have it, and my rwkw seem to be better than others who claim a lot more but cant keep up with me.

[oscar32]

Hey Roy!!!

That 200rwkw mark isn't that easy to reach, certainly more than a pod and zorst.

Man, I agree. I've been told so often that my car should roll more than it does considering the above, however I wonder how real those figure really are. I thik its more embarassing saying you got something you ain't. Nothing worse than 220 rwkw's beating the amazing 250 rwkw claim.
