Well, last nite, at 7:30, my baby left my possession.

It was time to move on, it wasnt practical anymore, couldnt take anymore than two people with me, and its hard for an elderly family member to get in and out of the thing.

i loved every minute of owning it, and yes, i also hated it sometimes, i even gave it the nickname of EMO-032.

it wasnt a bad car, it was just, well, a whinger. lol

i didnt really have a chance to properly say goodbye to it, as last nite before the new owner came to pick it up, i had a phone call to say my grandmother had passed away. not a great nite, i must say.

i hope the new owner takes care of it, and im sure he will. im looking forward to seeing it on the road, with someone who can enjoy as much as i did, and possibly even more.

as for my plans, well, i thought about buying a new hilux turbo diesel, but alas, i cannot afford the 30k+ price tag, even with the staff discount lol

so, ive been considering my options, and i am now in the market for a Stagea, preferably an S2 with dual sunroofs.

here are some of the photos i took last nite before it left, sorry for shit quality, was on my phone.

cheers

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
