Stew Posted October 1, 2006 Posted October 1, 2006 The way they are burning up it looks like kwik fit remoulds! That's Z power for you I guess! Quote
hagar Posted October 1, 2006 Posted October 1, 2006 sadly practically impossible in a uk zed why? All you need is a dislike for your clutch too or a quick dab on the brakes Quote
Dash Posted October 1, 2006 Posted October 1, 2006 Unfortunatly due the ESP,VDC,EBD kicks back in as soon as it realises the front wheels arent moving. Trust me we had the chance to do this recently and no amount of effort will make it work. Its due to the ESP function on the car which not all american or jap cars have. If you dont believe me try it. Standing burnouts are impossible in a uk car. standaing starts doughtnuts all possible standing burnouts sadly no. Quote
hagar Posted October 1, 2006 Posted October 1, 2006 i remeber the jap test drivers commenting on how even with the esp turned off it still wasnt fully disabled - made issues for drifting or somesuch. No issue in the monaro though Did I mention my new toy? I'm sure I did Quote
lomoto Posted October 1, 2006 Author Posted October 1, 2006 could do that in mine ...no ESP only TCS which in turnoffable Whats the point though? Quote
Dash Posted October 1, 2006 Posted October 1, 2006 Is yours a jap model? TCS despite being turned off will come on again. In the UK cars at least. Quote
Removed Posted October 1, 2006 Posted October 1, 2006 wonder if the trick of keeping the tcs button pressed for a long time (some 30 seconds) disables more electronics, so i read in the US forums? Apparently it would disable all but the ABS IIRC. Also the slip light would come on permanently (until you turn the car off and on again that is) Quote
Dash Posted October 1, 2006 Posted October 1, 2006 We tried that too! It didnt work the ESP still came back on and "caught" the back brakes to prevent the rear wheels from moving! We spent nearly an hour playing round (and video'd it too ) Fortunately it was a "donor" car. ;) Quote
