rev limiter

[ViolentJ]

does it ever catch you out?

i keep hitting it in 2nd and its a tad annoying, might help if i didnt have my music on so loud so then i could hear the engine.

Si.

 

[swelch]

usually catches me out if it is not quite warmed up, when it cuts in early

people who rag their car to a soundtrack.................its very odd.

 

[ViolentJ]

you dont listen to anything in the car then ben? I cant stand driving in silence.

Si.

 

[boyracer666]

[ViolentJ]

if it was the same for most i doubt wed have an ICE forum

Si.

 

[BenR]

i dont have a single peice of ice in my car..................

wouldnt mind just a HU and 2 speakers upfront, but that sh*t is heavy man!

Ive seen vid where people cane it to really loud music, i just dont see any point to it.

 

[RobFenn]

Agreed, i wouldnt mind some upgraded speakers for better quality sound but all the gizmo stuff should be left at home. Cars are sh*t for a good sound anyway arent they?

[ViolentJ]

i cant explain it... its erm "nice" *shrugs*

Si.

Hehe I quarter mile to music Ben, "Rage against the Machine - bombtrack" - keeps me focused LoL

 

[ViolentJ]

that reminds me

the mechanic who road tested my car after the service on monday obviously likes music too, i got in and the volume was seriously cranked up and the clutch pedal was soft, dread to think what he was doing.

bit suss though, never had it road tested after a service before...

Si.

 

[BenR]

your joking!!!

nah, i like to chill to some music, have a giggle at radio 1.......but apart form that, i dont really need surround sound theater quality stuff. The motorway does get a bit boring after an hr or 2 with just a hum.

 

[Ben P]

lightweight ice is the key

At the moment I reckon all my ice weighs as much as another person in the car with me at all times.

When I upgrade to a valver etc, I am ditching the lot. A couple of nice speakers up front and thats it.

 

[cliomk2]

I hit it in 2nd and 3rd once when i was coming down a slip road, but not hit it recently!

Not as impressive as y0z at the weekend. He sat in the queue for one of his runs with a stigg like helmet on and Nancy Sinatra - These boots were made for walking blasting out of the car.

I keep hitting the limmiter in the first 3 gears all the time. Nothing wrong with driving round the engine bouncing of the limiter from cold. Shame the car isnt faster as I dont seem to accelerate changing p as the car hits the limiter.





Dont worry its a Micra coutesy car I wouldnt do that to my beloved Clio
