On the way back home from work... I saw this evo at red light, i was like " oh~ yea " and i pulled right next to him. We looked at each other, he started rev up and i was like 'that's annoying, i let you hear my APS TD'. I looked at my A/F and temp was around 60 degree... I was like " i'm ready to GO, you better push hard "

Light changed.....I pushed......guess what...F*AKing my car got chock up( Feels like fuel cut or something) at 5~5500 RPMs in the first gear ...I shifted it to second but it was already late, his half of body was head of me. I didn't get behind but couldn't pass him...

i really hate this...

 

Nothing worse than losing because of a technical difficulty....Hope you get this figured out man.

 

Maybe a stupid question but, did u have ur vdc on or off? I done that before and it sucks

 

So much for street racing...

 

1 - street racing stories are a no no

2 - do you have vdc on?

 

Need more NOS...

 

Mine is base model.

You NOS lover haha

 

Get a Turbo? hahaha j/k

 

He is not talking about the actual race he is talking about what suddenly happened to the car in the race so stop being such a girl about it.

kinda sounds like vdc

 

Vdc ftl

 

Vdc?

 

Go supercharger or go home!!! haha

 

VDC or belt slip.

Either that your your Z was too busy pissing itself at the sight of the EVO.

 

Belt slip? it happens only at first gear. And if there was belt slip, is it possible to make the car feels like cutting fuel ? Because what it happend was like something got cut...similar feels like something gets cut when you hit redline.

VDC? i don't know i did mention that i have a base model which don't have VDC.

 

Belt slip feels almost the same, depending on how bad it slips ... the car basically falls on its face. Has it done it since? Do some data logging if it does and post it up.

 

Drive belt is tight enough for sure.

I can not really say "since or when", beacuse i don't really push my car all the time. You know what dave, i only know how to play with fuel map on utec....gotta play with it more. This thread became a same thread as my other thread 'hiccup'...lol

 

Try it out today, do a few launches in 1st gear somewhere and see what it does. Data logging is easy, just read the UTEC manual and it'll tell you how.

 

Could you have overboosted? I think UTEC has overboost fuel cut - don't really remember for sure though.

 

Not possible with an SC.
