Spotted tonight...

Snowcrash's DBM complete with "This is a quick car" FIA World Rally stickers...thrashed by another DBM with only 220bhp

Haven't laughed so much in ages!!!

Seriously though Fizz - are you taking the p1ss about 220bhp?! What was the noise coming from the turbo - it sounded a bit like an EVO washing machine! Me & Siy reckon you had something done at Powerstation this morning...

Oh well whatever it is, atleast somebody has put Snowcrash in his place...

hahahahahahahaha.
Nope seriously it's 220, so the graph says I showed it to snowcrash.
It's Fuzz by the way not fizz, Fizz is a girl.
Last time I checked I most certainly was not

Nice to meet you all, just got in

EDIT: to say I havn't got the foggiest what that noise is,you can hear it in snows motor, over "that" back box :ekk: squeals like a stuck pig inside my car.
Is it not supposed to do that then ????
has always done it, even on test drive, although noticibly not on the Rollers this morning !!!(yesterday morning now)
Spooky !!

in all fairness you were 3 up, all I had was 40 quids worth of optimax.
So how "standard" is that DBM then "snowcrash" "*****" <delete as applicable>
I didn't exactly leave you for dead, you were only just behind me but Hey ! behind me is good enough

yeah what happened to your brakes???

The only mods on mine are full-decat, dawes and itg panel filter. (shame i was 3 up). Other than usual crappy mods which have no power effect (i.e. AFR/Quickshift/Clear indicators/FIA Stickers , yours was pulling away from me... and i dunno what that sound was (sounded wierd) almost high pitch...

I also use standard Hairspray fuel (Sainsburys Unleaded)

Good laugh anyway

Shame Jamie left and we could then see the difference between ours and a standard.

also i think your's would outhandle mine easily..

cheers
snowcrash

Fuzz - I thought your tyres were squealing at first but then noticed it made that squeal at slow speeds as well.

I've never heard one like that before which is why I thought you'd done something since that graph was produced.

Fair play to you m8, that car is quick - the camber settings are also really noitcable from the back as well which makes it look a lot meaner that standard

The brakes were just burning off the coppa slip and probably some paint as well. That was the first time I had leaned on them, I was supposed to be bedding them in you barstewards that big stoppie didn't do them a world of good
I was trying to come down on the box as much as I could but ran out of road.

That heading is bugging me now...Fizz

trundled off back to powerstation to ask their advice this afternoon but they too busy to give it a ramp up the road,
the only recomendation they could give was about the lack of power.
The fix was to remove knock sensor, grease bolt and replace at 7 FtLb torque and no more, otherwise it senses knock too soon, will try tonight, got some poxy brake pipes to fit for a customer first tho.... Bosses daughter best I concentrate...

All you guys with MY99 and MY00 I can log your ECU with Delta dash if you drive to Yate and are worried. I'm not sure about all of the reading, but am getting there

What would it show up ???

I take it that was you on Monday in Yate flooring it past me out of a side turning just up from the station.
All I remember was a flash of headlights and this grey streak went by me

Delta Dash will show every measurement your ECU is seeing an will log it over time. I can do resets and adjust the idle if needed

Its a great bit of SW

Was the grey streak an RB5 WRSport ? If so then it was me!!

Cheers Phill C

PS I may even let you boys try my TEK 2.5

what length of time does it Log your ECU,
<scratches head> that's not very clear

How long does the logging last whilst driving?

Can you input a reference point? e.g. If you have an intermittent stutter or stumble, can you press a button to show on the log file where that occured ??
Hope that's not too technical for you Brizzolians

Andy
P.s Love to try the Tek2 but not till I have this annoying sqeal sorted (off to Listers in the morning)
