you should add throttle progressively as the torque comes, you're lugging the engine by adding full trottle on inadequate rpm - friendly tip so you don't ruin your next engine

Fucking dogshit uphill corner. I lock the rear diff at that turn now, it turns off the TC too. Fucking nigger shit, I don't care if I have to flip the ass end out to get around that corner.
but how
the shifter would literally drop itself right in front of 4th
how do you fuck that up nigga
Because I'm a fucking retard. I got the engine rebuilt instead of writing the car off, so I feel less bad.

I'm surprised the tranny didn't explode, usually it'd go first.

what kind of displacelet shitbox do you drive
my car barely turns 2,000RPM at 130kmh
Not him, but my econobox does 3000rpm at 100 km/h, its cries are very audible in the cabin. Car is comfy for what it is, so it's fine, I rarely take it on the road.
1.0 Zetec is trash btw.
He drives a 5 speed 4 cylinder car, going at around 70 mph.
I commute at 6000 rpm
So do I.
BY CHOICE.
YYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH NNNNNNIIIIIIIIIGGGGGGGGGGAAAAAAAA
Tfw never have go past 3k rpm because high displacement.
>BY CHOICE.
Well I do, I could as well rev lower at only 160 km/h, but that would be boring...
>turn wheels full lock right or left
>rpm drop
Is this even a thing?
No replacement for displacement bruther. Hurf durf.
I guess it could be since the power steering pump draws power from the engine? Maybe having the pump actively turn the wheels increases load and RPMs? Sounds like dogshit engineering, but lots of shitboxes on this board.

That is what happens when you cross a controller designed for a small car, a robust hub-motor and batteries designed for drones.

Car is a Fiesta, the generation before the one in the US. The 1.0 4banger Zetec is dogshit, supposed to have 70 hp, but no way in hell it has. Driving a Sandero from work (1.0 3cyl) feels fast because it actually moves when you press the gas.
Still, the Fiesta is prettyt comfy roomy with nice seats. I like it. Many adventures with him. His name is Ishi.
Aw shit, me too user

also random water gurgling noise when car start, plus random binding from subaru awd
it's just a secret turbo :)
you need a better alternator senpai, your sub is drawing more than the car can give it
