ABS Question....

NO it dosnt have ABS and I would advise every Typhoon owner to Remove the system as I have done....

Doing 80mph up to a round about and the The Brake pedal going solid and not applying any force to the brakes is a big problem.....Thank god for the E-brake just managed to slow us down (new shoes supplied with the truck..lol)

This problem is a common fault with the TY & SY's  and has caused many crashes/right offs in the states

Now with out the system on the TY the braking force is Much better and it slows down quicker... Also less brake fade

The Drive system already gives the power to the wheels that has the most grip...

But all the sensors are still there and are working (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/up.gif)

I took £4200 for it which means I lost around £250 in total.... on what I spent and what the Phoon cost in the first place.

What I have lost is Hours and Hours of my time fixing the damm thing(http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/down.gif)

Losing £250 on a car is good going imho, especially when you've factored in what bits you've bought for it.

Try that with a Eurobox...


Plus you sold it quickly really (due to the price imho), some yanks sit around for months on end.

Post by: Finlay on May 24, 2007, 03:53:42 PM
Ive always moved them quick, and sold them at the right price for me at the time

Its not your normal Yank owner that come to buy the Typhoons....

Many of the people that phoned were used to Jap and Euro cars (a of 911 and a couple of BMW M3 owners) one guy came over and just slated Typhoons and Syclones for 20 mins....Saying he had seen 5 so far and all were crap.... I suggested he went to have a look at the 1993 No 2200 Typhoon in the states...(Its in GM's lockup and has never been sold)(http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/rolleyes.gif)

The guy that did buy it knew what GMC build quality was like..lol



Im happy to sell it so quick as I was expecting the long haul with this one. And them pound notes sure look good (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/up.gif)
