That would probably explain why they were at warp factor 9, on a soaking wet day through a residential area.
Though going on the standard of driving in most places that could just be someone popping to the shops.
I agree that that the 86/BRZ are under powered and do need a good shove to get them moving, but personally I think that's half the fun.
If I wanted loads of power for no work I'd have kept my 508 GT. That had 330 something ftlbs from literally tick over.
Compared to my 200 RCZ it's not as well...
I'd just had the chain and tensioners done on my RCZ, then about 2 months later it started making this quite loud chattering noise,
and the clutch had started mooing when hot in traffic
Neither of which the dealer seemed fussed about after the salesman had driven it. So hey ho!
Yes, Magna Steyr.
So if anyone mocks it for being French crap, you can point out is in in fact Austrian crap. Which was my favourite retort to the Peugeot non fans that I met.
My current car is pure Japanese rice, assembled in non other than the performance car Mecca that is Gunma Prefecture.
"Brembo" discs from Euro Car Parts.
Everyone I know that waved their willy around after having fitted them then moaned they'd warped within a year.
My cheap Blueprint ones? Absolutely no problem.
So the turbo gives no boost, or it's going in to limp mode?
Also P2191, if read with the correct PSA equipment and not some Mickey Mouse £1.75 ebay reader is an engine timing fault code.
Which given it's a THP is more than likely.
Turbos stifle sound.
Pretty much all you'll get is what mongs with straight piped Bora diesels get, a horrible farting noise and the whir of the turbo.
I put a cheap exhaust on my petrol RCZ and it sounded ok if not overly loud.
I installed a camera in my RCZ, off the top of my head I piggy backed off the driver's side window/mirror control fuse.
Maybe. Either that or the electric seat fuse. I've not owned an RCZ for nearly 2 years, so my memory is a little patchy.
I used the frame of the dashboard as an earth, seemed...
That's odd, I've never seen that before.
It's not my old one is it 😆
Though being fair, it looked good, it just made noises that made you think it was going to die.
