skidxr6t skids Donating Members 2,754 Member For: 12y 5m 10d Gender: Not Telling Posted 11/05/16 12:27 AM Share Posted 11/05/16 12:27 AM (edited) mmmm hows the cold weather in perth lately! I love early morning turbocharged drives! This morning I gave car stick in 3rd > abs/trac ctrl/handbrake light flash? > speedo cuts out > restart car and all good. Anyone had this situation? It's all fine if I turn trac ctrl off, car spins wheels and I sh*t myself cause not used to the power I'm enjoying this car too much, almost wrote it off yesterday so have decided I need some training. Probably still alive because I put half decent tyres on the car. I can definitely see why people fit brembos too, I've only ran out of brakes once though. No brake shudder FTW.

Also seen people here report fixing it by changing coils or something though IIRC. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/21890-wa-spotted-chit-chat-thread/page/3420/#findComment-1589833 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did wyalkatchem realise it's the only thing that ever brings people to their town?

From AL: "How's 1800m long, 30m wide and with a surface better that most public roads sound ? " "the new potential location has an awesome strip, is less of a sh*t hole, and the town wants the event. " Still lots to figure out to make out happen though, it's not a sure thing yet. 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/21890-wa-spotted-chit-chat-thread/page/3420/#findComment-1590198 Share on other sites More sharing options...
