This is a thread for everyone whos cars don't have problems to post in. I see alot of "my car is broken" " yeah there always broken" type posts and think we just don't have enough re inforcement from the guys whose cars run fine.
I get to start the list, I beat the crap out of my car, try random mods and mess with things and my car hasn't missed a beat.
All things considered, my car does run great; it's had a few minor issues here & there, but nothing to dampen my mood for the car. I beat the living piss out of mine too, and it still starts up & acts fine the next day. I love my car.
I beat on the car pretty good, back and forth through rush-hour traffic to and from Chicago 5 days a week. Raced it a bit, beat on it daily, but don't go out of my way to destroy it either. I wait for the oil monitor, I've yanked the blower off, installed the K&N, plugged new wires in the the ECU.
So far so good... I got a code for the K&N (I think) for a couple of weeks, and that's been it.
Mine is running great too. I just fixed the intercooler pump wiring and now I can keep any fluid in the resovuar . Other than that It has been an ok car
Mine's doing great. I beat the heck out of it at the drag strip by WOT shifting. It's holding together good. That may change once I put the new light flywheel and performance clutch in. Best time so far 14.82.
same as everyone else, love the car, beat the piss out of it and runs great. few minor things here and there but they tend to clear up after a day or 2
Beat the crap out of it and power shift every race until I get tired and go home then once I turn her off she calls me a pussy and tells me that I drive like a girl. Then I go and kick her panels but it doesnt do anything and she yells "remember im dent resistant a-hole", then I go upstairs and cry and wake up the next morning and do the same thing.
Mine's been doing great so far also. almost 14000 miles and nothing major so far *knocks on wood*. I've got the K&N, threw a code twice, both codes cleared within a day. Worst things the have happened so far were the shift knob popping off (fixed by hammering back on) and my rear door on the drivers side became misaligned (which seems to be an isolated incident, only happening to me). Both fixed, and everything runs great. O yeah, and I can scare cars because of the blower sound that reulted from the intake . I take the car on trips, short and long, and beat on it both times. I love it.
Mine has been great! No major issues, I even thought I broke the Blower hehehe when I was trying to change the pulley, and not a single thing happened to it. I beat on it daily (Why does this sound wrong to post here) And it doesnt give me any problems, havent had a single CEL for more then a day heheheh. All in all its been an awsome car..and Im at 21k miles..
Mine has been a great car.. Just had a question about the clunk in the front end and it seems that everbody has it, so it is not a concern. I have added wiring to the PCM, taken apart and added wiring to the underhood fuse box/buss, added wirring to the BCM then removed part of it (original foglight install, keeping dimmer circuit for boost)
AEM SRS (05 fit check with AEM), starts and runs great, eats ricers for lunch on a constant basis and when I keep my foot out of it, is good on gas. No complaints that would come close to making me sorry I bought this car.
This car has put up with my use for about a year (7k) and has not had any problems that were of any consequence, I think I'm just picky. I certainly get my 16k worth and totally dig the sleeper aspect.
Mine runs great. Had 2 CEL's just after installing the K&N both cleared out within a day never to be seen again. I have GG torque brace in rev a. tried rev b. back to rev a. now with my home made rev 3.1.
I drive it every day to and from work and use it for work 5 days a week the only complaint I have is the price of gas.
I'm looking to get the windows tinted in the next month or so and in stall the B&M Shifter.
Mine also runs awesome. Couple of codes with the K&N but nothing that made it run any less than normal. I did get a scare when I hopped real hard down the track last night, but again, nothing happened so I was happy. Can't wait to do more to her.
Garage it. This thing sucks even with snow tires. A few winters ago I drove my SVT Focus with the same tires as I put on the RL and the RL didn't like it nearly as much. Why I asked. The answer is torque.
Mines been fine til the shift knob came off today! Nothing a little superglue wont fix Love it, and no real problems, and ive been beating on it since day one - I learned to drive stick on it!
yeah ive had no problems with mine either I had my CEL light come on today after I put my short-ram in but it cleared in no time about winter i might be screwed the RL is my only car and the winters here in Indy can get pretty shitty any ideas
It's good that many people here have had no problems, but a lot of these posts sound like "Mine runs great except..."
I love the car when it runs right, and if they get it to run right for good, I will keep this car, just sounds like i have one of those that finds every problem in it.
Dan thing teases me by running great, then craps out again.
