johnnyr6 Posted October 24, 2003 Posted October 24, 2003 S'pose it could have been worse m8, 6 months should fly in.
jacqui_robb Posted October 24, 2003 Posted October 24, 2003 Hey, whats all this "1 sec buffer " cr#p??!! I dont think so. I lose time off the line as it is so ur already getting a head start anyway! Was unsure whether putting my babe on track cos of chat on S.N. about engine "detonations" very likely on STI Type R's. Getting all gauges etc fitted over winter & dont want it to go BANG b4 then........but oh the temptation!! Can hardly use car at the moment though (i like my freedom!), so maybe.....
jacqui_robb Posted October 24, 2003 Posted October 24, 2003 Tim, sorry to hear that, as prev-it could've been worse. Mine'll be off the road 4 winter 2, but at least I get to drive the fast (NOT) Clio!
jacqui_robb Posted October 24, 2003 Posted October 24, 2003 JohnnyR6, just been checking out the last times from Crail (12/10) and our times look well sh1t!!! 4 scooby's = 13.604 @ 101.1, 13.232 @ 102.3, 13.192 @ 101.1 and.....12.96 @ 105.9!!!! F@#k F@#k F@#k!!! So f@#king frustrated!!! (12.96 = Car 10, desc says Impreza STI - check out the times) My speed crossing the line was faster than all of the other 3 cars so just shows how much time I'm losing off the line!
johnnyr6 Posted October 25, 2003 Posted October 25, 2003 I've seen it, one of them is the guy with the P1 and he kicks the c##p out of it and has had 3 gearboxes replaced. If you see it at the front its got more stone chips and dents than a 20 year old allegro. I don't have a knocklink fitted either so i'm taking it carefully. Although i had it on the rollers and its running fine, i'll need to fit one as i want to take it out on knockhill but i defo need a knocklink for that. I did beat a bike and a sti type r so our times can't be that bad, in fact the only car to beat me was tims.
gardner Posted October 27, 2003 Author Posted October 27, 2003 b at crail but my clutch is slipin so wont b up the 1/4
tim_wilkinson Posted October 28, 2003 Posted October 28, 2003 Craig - friction disc could be glazed up a bit, try a few full throttle starts and see how it is. Mine was doing it a while ago, went to crail, did a few of my usual 'light' take offs, and het presto, no more problem!
jacqui_robb Posted October 28, 2003 Posted October 28, 2003 Craig - ya big jessy!!! Do u reaaly think u'll go to Crail with ur car and then not put it on the track??!!! 2 Fast 2 Furious out on DVD now - watch it night b4 and there'll be no stopping ya! Why r guys so funny about girls having scooby's? Had a barnie with someone at weekend .............................................."After all it was only a subaru, not a sports car, and therefor nothing special"!!! Slagging of my babe - not a way into my good books . MEN
tim_wilkinson Posted October 29, 2003 Posted October 29, 2003 Now then Miss Sti, what we need is this aggression on the start line, u'll be knocking in 11's before you know it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
johnnyr6 Posted October 29, 2003 Posted October 29, 2003 Well if two girls were at lights in front of me one in a scooby and one in a saxo the one in the scooby would get my attention first. (better still if on a bike). Hope my wife doesn't see this!
gardner Posted October 31, 2003 Author Posted October 31, 2003 rite then rite then il fekin take uz all on. thats it jaq call me a jessy ur 1st. LOL 2 fast iv had it for 4 months fekin gooood
jacqui_robb Posted November 7, 2003 Posted November 7, 2003 eh, that might be a bit of a problem Craig.....def going but dont think I'm running!!!!! Big (and not very cheap) weekend - getting new tyres Friday (hopefully delivered in time), heading down the road to get car rolling roaded , going to SECC Motor Show on Sat then off to Crail on Sunday Should be good weekend but might be a bit hard on the car to take it onto the strip as well!!! Bit nervous (but excited ) about having car rolling roaded - but figure if it's gonna go bang might as well be there rather than Crail! R u guys all running? Gonna to be itching to get on strip, but must resist!! My brother's going too so look out for my black scooby and a yellow MR2 Turbo. Oh and in case I dont see any of u on Sunday, ur mission, should you choose to accept it, is to annilliate a blue MR2 Turbo. He says scoobys r cr#p!! Have fun and hopefully see ya's on Sunday.
johnnyr6 Posted November 8, 2003 Posted November 8, 2003 Dunno bout the rest but i'll be on the strip unless theres a huge queue. If your up come over and say hi. Silver sti2 with BBJ reg.
jacqui_robb Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 Did ya run on Sunday then? Was lots of scoobys there!!!!! When u had ur car rolling roaded, how did u get on? Had mine done on Friday - BHP about what I expected () but MAF sensor is f@#ked. Have to get new one asap and some octane booster, then return! Hoping to have it done for crail on 23rd - last run of the year b4 he goes into hibernation and get his xmas pressies!!!
johnnyr6 Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 Yes i did run the car in the morning, my fastest time was 14.2 which wasn't bad considering it was damp. I was spinning all four wheels off the line at first. It was so damp early on that a guy with a kit car span it off the line into the tyre wall. When i got the car r/r'd i found out the chip in mine was making the car detonate so it had to come out. I also had a knackered maf due to an aftermarket filter letting dust through it. What's your car making? mines is now making about 270 (227 @ wheels) but it is much slower as the chip was removed, it must have been nearer 300 with the chip.
johnnyr6 Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 Tim what happened? did you not find a driver then? Miss scooby was it your car i saw sitting round at the back of the drifting oval near the exit?
jacqui_robb Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 Was it black & dirty parked next to a yellow MR2? If so yep! (late on - over at drift ring once strip closed). I saw ur car - just 4 a sec though cos was trying to find somewhere to park up at one point and just saw ur car as I was turning then Fireforce started up...and everything disappeared!!!!! << I also had a knackered maf due to an aftermarket filter letting dust through it. >> When u replaced the MAF how much were u 4 a new 1? Did u change ur filter? Getting prices 4 new MAF but then if I dont change air filter thats on it is it just going to do the same again ?? edited to say - not putting BHP on here 4 anyone & every1 to look at but about what I expected and a good starting point!!
johnnyr6 Posted November 13, 2003 Posted November 13, 2003 Hi there my maf cost £112 but if it for a later model it's about £70 (97 model on i think). I changed to a standard filter was about £30 it was recommended by the tuner and a few on here.
jacqui_robb Posted November 24, 2003 Posted November 24, 2003 Did u take any photos on the 9th Nov? My brothers looking for a pic of his yellow MR2. Thats the thing when ur on the strip - never get any pics! Tried loads of cruise sites for both 28/09 + 09/11 but nothing of his or mine Anyone go to Crail today? No way was going - winter has set in here over the weekend. Went to get into mr scooby today - car had turned from black to white (this was late afternoon, still hadn't defrosted!!), and the doors were frozen shut!!!! aaarrgghh - access denied!!! Came in 1/2 hour ago and it was -2!!! Winter car definately on road tomorrow!! So, what cars is every1 going to drive over the winter then???
