rapidcossie Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 Tell him to come to Knockhill on the 11th We will see how his WR1 Compares to certain STi's round there[] CraiG PS Frank, note the signiture below[][] i think the WR1 would spank up most scoobies there.... normal stis/P1's are too understeery(good word LOL) on track
craig mac Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 LOL, Please please tell him to come along. And we will see who issues the spanking [] CraiG Sorry is my car not a normal STi?[]
frank c Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 Project Classic.....Sounds Intriging ) R/Cossie..too understeery ?, depends who's classic's you've been driving And what's classed as normal ?
rapidcossie Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 LOL, Please please tell him to come along. And we will see who issues the spanking [] CraiG Sorry is my car not a normal STi?[] has your STI got DCCD fitted? no? then it is a normal STI, KH aint all about BHP
frank c Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 How does your Cossie compare to your mates WR1 ?
rapidcossie Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 Project Classic.....Sounds Intriging ) R/Cossie..too understeery ?, depends who's classic's you've been driving And what's classed as normal ? normal i meant a car without DCCD as this transforms the handling of a STI and makes alot more like an EVO. only been in a few classics on KH but know guys with P1's with full whiteline set ups and they still aint happy with them
craig mac Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 Yes my car has DCCD And am not talking about BHP, i was already aware that BHP means zip, as the furry rodent already clearly explained to you. My car is an 05 Sti, and the DCCD was standard, so why it that classed as not normal[*-)] Think maybe you should ask a few of the regular K/Hill lads, and maybe look back some of the other threads before you lay down the gaunlet[] Like this one............... http://forums.sidc.co.uk/forums/808050/ShowPost.aspx My car pi5hed on an ultima round Knockhill last trip out, What more can i say.[] CraiG
frank c Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 Understandable R/C as K/hill is quite a tight track..but i wouldn't change my set-up or car just for K/hill, I'm quite happy not having DCCD for back roads and the like. and i certainly wouldn't want my car to handle like an Evo.. Or i'd buy one

My car pi5hed on an ultima round Knockhill last trip out, What more can i say.[] CraiG apologies as i didnt realise your car was an 05..i have you mixed up with some one else... i have not thrown down any gauntlet, i only stated that the WR1 handles better than a non DCCD equiped sti. it was you that said Tell him to come to Knockhill on the 11th We will see how his WR1 Compares to certain STi's round there[] CraiG was it not? i said that a WR1 would beat most scoobies on track..which i believe it would? true or not?
craig mac Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 Frank C Project Classic.....Sounds Intriging ) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Oh it will be m8 [] It wil not be ready till maybe April May time, Well maybe sooner.[] Canna wait to get started, Give the 9 a wee rest[H] CraiG

It is an inherant problem with all out the box scoobies.
rapidcossie Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 How does your Cossie compare to your mates WR1 ? the two cars are so different they are uncomparable.. one is a bang up to date rally machine and one is an ancient old sierra..

Possibly yes, but to be honest, not most scobbies on track are standard either It also has a lot to do with the driver too, You could have a 500ft/lb car and an avearge driver, and a 300ft/lb car with someone who can drive it on a track, I know who would win that[] CraiG

LOL Nice quote. Not often you hear cossie owner say that about there car Quality CraiG
rapidcossie Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 there you go then... we both agree on something
st3ph3n Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 Out of the box Imprezas suffer from an easily curable problem - Geometery by Stevie Wonder. Best £40-50 you can spend on the cars IMHO. Obviously doesn't entirely cure the understeer on its own, but it is front heavy car obviously.
slo2 Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 My bug eye with the ppp is great!!!! St3ph3n knows, been on the private track with him and had fun. Mind you if I had uprated the tax disc holder I d have left him standing!!!![]
sma01 Posted October 22, 2006 Posted October 22, 2006 Seems very strange that you now come out with that response now andy, since you were aware of problems both times and even removed the first map.... at first map u told me the air was flowing "too well" for the turbo, so car goes back with new turbo, headers, FMIC, injectors, etc etc and still no further progression, hence the change to gems, car is on rolling road whilst still with ecutek on day of change to gems only for me to be told my car has been left running "dangeously lean mid-range"... also, i find it strange you think my exhaust headers were melted, in the fact that they have just come of the car and been sold on and are having no troubles and were in good condition, secondly, i might ask, what engine problems??car is in for upgrades now and none due to anything braking.... as i said in an earlier post, everyone is entitled to their own opinion and i was only stating mine, i know you have mapped a lot of newage cars since then and people have been happy with them, but i felt both times that we tried it that theecutek map did not work for my car, have had other people look at it who agreed,so it was changed to gems, which i am finding suits the car a lot better. scott
sma01 Posted October 22, 2006 Posted October 22, 2006 "How does your Cossie compare to your mates WR1 ?" seen the cossie go, there would be no contest, eh Euan.... scott
craig mac Posted October 22, 2006 Posted October 22, 2006 Scott This is very interesting, Andy mapped my car with a few choice mods[] Sti9 and has been on 2 seperate rolling roads and both results were totally spot on Fuel is actually highlighted in one print out and it quotes " Fuelling is spot on" [] I look forward to Andy's reply CraiG
andrew_forrest Posted October 22, 2006 Posted October 22, 2006 Scott I have given up trying to educate both you and your tuner Steve Simpson. I explained to you a number of times that with the APS parts fitted your car was suffering from boost creep, a mechanical issue with the turbo that is outwith the control of the ECU, any ECU. Any tuner relying on an AFR figure as displayed on a rolling road on a car with a maf sensor and induction kit has a basic lack of understanding of how these cars work. See you at knockhill shortly ? I'll also have a new age car so level playing field [] Seems like someone is going to have their mirrors full of blue and white eh Craig []

ANDYJDMSTI Posted October 22, 2006 Posted October 22, 2006 Nice one Andy! by the way I touch goats []
