Forgot to mention this the other day, and it's far from a Supercar. It was pretty decent for its time when it came out though - I spotted an old Mazda 626 coupe in mint, original spec during the week. It was the factory two-tone silver over blue with a red stripe, had factory alloys, etc. I'll post a link of what model it was when I jump on a PC.

A mate had one of these back in the day; it was such a nice handling car; really nice to drive.

When I was a 1st year apprentice one of my instructors had one with a 13B in it; now THAT was a nice car.

The driveline it should've had from the factory.

IIRC; the suspension is identical to S2/S3 RX7; but on a slightly longer wheelbase.

You're talking about the old RWD ones, Dale? I knew someone who had built a yellow one of those too, with 13b built by his brother, interior done by another brother (who did my interior retrim in the Stagea), and it was beautiful. Their attention to detail is incredible, they all take pride in their work.

The car I saw the other day was the first of the FWD ones, though.

Like this, with these factory alloys, etc., but no body kit:

Yep Nick, the RWD ones. :yes:

I'd forgotten about the FWD one; christ that bodykitted one is ugleh.

Always had nice interiors though.

Needless to say, we had some catching up to do at Jesus Racing's "Life In The Fast Lane".

Some people might know his son Adam Leung - Driving Instructor

      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 !

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.

      By ARB26 · Posted

      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 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.
