But Martin you can't be Martin if I'm Martin.

What if Martin is really Martin?

Greentea wrote:@Daniel,

I have no idea about the flywheel. Just going off what the previous owner told me there. Hahaha. The only thing I have done to this car since I bought it, was put in the airbox and panel filter, empty out the boot, give it a wax and replace my melted cup holder (5 cent coin melted in)

Not sure about a turbo FTO? But I do know that near me (1-2 minutes away) there's a house with two FTO's in the driveway.

That would be me *waves*

Dont know why im so happy but i learnt how to rev match today ^^ watched quick youtube tutorial then tried out. First 3 tries were terrible but now its as smooth as my upshifts :)

Gonna learn heel-toe soon once i am 100% comfortable with rev matching.

Also, would it be sensible to remove my spare tire and jack? My jack is missing that turning thingo so i cany use it anyway. I also have free roadside assist anyway.

What happens if there is no mobile coverage or there is a 4 hr wait? And roadside assist may help you fit a spare, but if you dont have one you will be screwed. They wont provide one for you.

    I was happy when I learnt to rev match/ heel toe, can make driving much smoother, when you can be bothered...

    No way you can heel toe with stock fto pedals... have tried :/ Rev matching skill was carried on from motorcycling for me subconsciously...along with some other negative habits. :(

    I can, although I find it easier with no shoes on as the pedals aren't perfect for it, but it still isn't too bad.
