What do you hate about the Euro?

**shmivic** · 22-09-2011 06:39 PM

Lol na,

Let me break it down like this;

Whines all the time (supercharger)
Hisses (toda race header)
Two kinds of fuel (pump 98 + water/methanol)
Smelly exhaust (toad test pipe)

Sarcasm was intended lol!

I think you need to update your thread if there is a whirling sound

Lol. I was thinking Hiss usually means a leaking flex pipe on the header!

And with the 98+water.. Lol can't you just use 98oct ethanol + octane booster instead, it's got 1% water content iirc

"....... Mosman is the number one postcode for a host of expensive imported brands, from Audi and BMW to Range Rover, Mercedes and Volvo.

In fact, the suburb has three times as many Porsches as it has Kias. In the rest of Australia, Kia outsells the German brand by 13 to one......"

Pump 98 goes in the fuel tank, water/methanol goes into 4L boot mount reservoir.

No power in the low end! I can actually feel the sudden increase in torque crossing 3k RPM...
Head unit has the dodgiest random track function ever... it consistently picks the same three tracks over and over lol.
Lots of effort to tune.
Fuel economy nothing to write home about if you drive in the city.

What do I really hate about my CU2?
1: The weight of the car. It's a lot stiffer (lol) and handles better than my old CL9, but I just wish it was the same weight!
2: The size of the car. No longer is this a medium sedan which I like, it's bigger in size than a falcodore! Parking can be a PITA because of it. It's easier to park my Prado lol!
3: Throttle response. It's put your foot down, wait 2 seconds, then it responds. Why is it so? My Prado has instant throttle response FFS!!!

What I love about the CU2?
The fuel economy! The price! The quality! The standard features on the base model! It's only a few $k more than the civic, but shits all over it quality and features wise. It's the perfect run around car. Even better now at $30k drive away!
