FS/EOI: Megasquirt, l-jet circuit v2.2

Really? I thought it was a great drive actually. I had a similar problem with the semi-auto, only a different gear, and yes it has to do with the adaptive gearbox that learns your driving style (or at least the driving style of the salesperson who drives it the most) and uses it as a memory feature...

Too bad it is a dud build and driving experience.... perhaps the stick is better, but the selespeed i tried is freakin' schizophrenic. effin held 2nd gear and would not let go @ 70km/h and this was in 'normal' mode.... freakin terrible. The dealer tried to 'splain it...

hrmm, now this is interesting.... does the US constitution apply to aussies on an US website - does the jurisdiction reach that far? is it the medium or the place of dissemination that counts? us aussies don't have the freedom of (all) speech, but the high court has implied a freedom of political sp...

Re: GTV6 Restore

Hi PietereQ, Thanks for your post. I do think the wheels are modern too and I have my stock wheels for my back up. I am going to get them reconditioned and see if they will still fit over the new brakes. We think that they should. This is personally my first car to restore and I did get side tracke...

hrmm, can't remember what changed when Gleich made the 2.8L w/ 190bhp... I think you're right, it was just the pistons... but i spose from a claimed 160bhp by the factory, a further 30hp is possible(ish) given the capacity increase, but also be mindful that the gleich forged pistions had a lot more ...

whoa, that is beautiful !

everytime i see an original example, i'm won over by the simplicity of its design.... 80s theme an all !
