Power steering is gay. If I had it, you could take it. But I don't :)

MR2 powersteering is used on track car builds cos it's full electric. plus it's bang for buck better than a lot of aftermarket units. pretty easy to control on and off etc via in switch cabin. Turn it off to conserve power, turn it on for quick maneuvering (ie, drifting/racing).

road going MR2's couldn't care less, but when you remove the power steering pump and all that shit off an RB/SR/1J/2J there's a substantial improvement in engine power. Then bolt on electrical MR2 pump and instant partytime. Weight loss + response is awesome. lotta Mazda/VW/Datsun/Nissan/Toyota guys do the mod.

Reason you don't have powersteering in your car is cos it was a very expensive option, and a lotta peasant spec owners didn't choose it when they ordered the MR2. The reason it's electric is cos your engine's in the back, and your driving wheels are in the front. It's cheap for us from factory cos everything's in the front. Make sense?

lol I had 3 very long cracks through my dash after parking it in the heat one summer.. bitch to swap over :\ I recommend not pushing your luck with that..

those louvre things are cool but what the fu..gly colour...

justjap have aircon vents, not sure if they still have stock but for the time u spend looking for them and find nothing, might as well spend the $100odd and buy them brand new

R-Spec: just go for a drive, bound to find some right behind you within minutes

haha its been going strong for 5yrs. Bring it on 2011 summer!

Does a rear strut brace on an r33 make a noticeable difference? I was pleasantly surprised when I put the front brace on the car but I'm yet to put a rear on. Any opinions?

dunno, i know on r32 suspension they do shit fk all. (as expressed by sydneykid)

Yeah, i noticed an impressive difference with the front strut brace on. Just not sure about the rear one given i've seen some posts from SydneyKid which states they do absolutely nothing.

So you noticed a difference with the rear brace Grant? Can you give some details?

went to pick up a little dough mixer in my car today, at the lights, cop pulls up next to me

im thinking, oh f**k my life. (i had a paper from the boss so i was all good, just hoping they wont pull me over and defect me for the tee and the tt)

so.. i cant resist the temptation and look to my right to see if their looking, whattdya know, their looking.

crack a sheepish smile and get a nod back. that was it..

Yeah, my old gtst came with rear brace not front for some reason, when I removed it it felt sloppy around corners, with that in place felt much better, then along came front brace. That was with standard suspension btw.

You think a letter from your boss supersedes the law?

You really are a douchebag

vicroads website says im automatically exempted if a letter is written by my boss bla bla with business hours, telephone numbers and shit when i drive the car for work

have to keep it on you at all times, and of course no ridiculous hours like 9-1am etc i got 7am-5pm thats when i go to and from work, after that its cruising like a hard kent in the territory lol

    • 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.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
