I realized that when I drive from a cold start, my car feels faster; especially when just on the fixing point it seems to roll faster but as soon as the temp goes higher and my engine begins to warm up, the car feels slower but mostly noticeable when rolling on the fixing point in gear one. Anyone have any idea what's going on with my car?

Hmm, possibly 02 sensor going bad.
When the engine is cold, it should run on open loop and rely on the ecu mapping and not the sensor. Once engine is warm, it runs closed loop for part throttle, and relies on the 02 sensor maintain stoichmetric Afr

thanks for the help, would you recommend changing the primary O2 sensor?

Probably ask a mechanics opinions first and if he also thinks its possible, probably should inspect it first as these sensors are not cheap

By fixing point do you mean clutch biting point? I thought on a cold start the car runs heaps richer and would be a little more responsive, and because your idle is higher on a cold start the biting point would be as if you're revving to move? ...if that makes sense
Question: anyone know if a KPRO made on a AUDM DC5 ecu would plug straight into the JDM EP3?
vtak + jrsc = bwwaaaahinneeeee
IF GUNS don't kill people, people kill people does that mean that toasters don't toast toast, toast toast toast?

Really starting to finish touching up the minor imperfections of my car, maybe ready for my first engine modification.
Already got Toda exhaust system up to cat, kind of on a low budget $300-$800, best bang for buck?
Suggestions please

Injen intake and some headers, PLM headers are good bang for buck

If you have your battery connected without driving for an extended period of time - it will drain.
