Asad Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 The something new will no doubt be bigger and better = cost more, im pretty sure ull start modding it too...back to square one but this time beacuse its bigger it will cost more.Id keep it, enjoy the hard work Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza_cl Posted May 12, 2009 Author Share Posted May 12, 2009 my mate just got a ek9 and there lovely cars, i kinda want something a bit more modern, just the feel of the glanza interior is a bit bland.i'm not really worried about running costs for a bigger car e.g. evo etc but i feel that the money i'm putting into this is a lost cause.

Guest Enzo Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 i ran silver v at .7 for the best part of two months with not a hint of creap. thats not why your getting creap. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza_cl Posted May 12, 2009 Author Share Posted May 12, 2009 hhmm i'l get it upto a bar and see what happens creep wise CMR went as soon as he got it over 0.85 i'm hoping mine will do the same.it's all on the list of things to fix lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Enzo Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 cmr suffered from it due to his top mount intercooler, it went away when he fitted a front mount Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Galliano Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Ah thats a shame man, but, if its for the best its for the best, now get another! Just get one that works Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza_cl Posted May 12, 2009 Author Share Posted May 12, 2009 i wonder why mine does it, as soon as i get to the bottom of this bogging down issue i will look into the creep.isnt as bad at the moment, get about .1-0.2 creep.i'v got a HKS evc 6 coming soon from a friend so that might control it better Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Enzo Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 .1 ???????what actuater are you using, and also what gauge do you have? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza_cl Posted May 13, 2009 Author Share Posted May 13, 2009 .1 ???????what actuater are you using, and also what gauge do you have?I have a HKS actuator, it creeps about 0.2 in the high revs, i'm using a Apexi gauge.i'm not to worried about it as i'm sure it will all sort it self out. got a few bits which should help get rid of the bogging down, and with therealy nice ebc i shouldnt get any.
