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?

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

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
