You guys are jerks. Don't you remember how stoked you were on your first car?

I had a red manual camry and I LOVED that POS.

Spent more on a stereo than the car was worth, lol. Used to get excited about shit like seat covers too haha.

Now I'm sad and wish I was 17 again :(

bought it back in 03 for 1500 bucks, it lasted about 2 yrs before a mates gf rear ended someone on the Iron cove bridge and blamed me for 'not like, fixing the brakes, and shit'. Was a great car considering it was an auto with flood damage (too many spilled mountain dews).

almost miss the thing. almost.

upgraded to an A4 which was an absolute lemon. now im in a skyline i aint ever going back..

Was an awesome first car, had it for almost 3 years i think before trading it in for the stagea. It went through all the standard p plater phases - the massive power increase of an exhaust + pod filter, half a bodykit, big wheels, stereo, etc

EDIT- first car was one of these. Bought it for 1g kept it for 6 months then sold it for 2g or 2.5g. It had been sitting in some old mans shed for years was in pristine condition and under 100ks.

I used to pull chicks in my old EA falcon.

True Story

I let some cvnt snooze on my couch one night and the dirty f**ker pinched it while i was sleeping..

Yeah, no more.... Sold for $1000. Totally original, but so much rust it wasn't really a feasible resto.

Had the original wheels, but my old man pinched them for something else, and left me with R30s I think? Spend pretty much every weekend fibre glassing some part of it!

Was a 5 spd too.... Still got the Warranty/Service booklet!biggrin.gif

Mine was one of these

7SC094.jpg

Same colour same year

Bought for $2700 with 217000kms on it

had it for 3 years

I never had to spent a cent on it. other than servicing it,

And the cd player I put in as soon as I got it

Drove it to all the shows and band practices for a whole 2 years

Some f**kwitt broke into it one night when I was playing a show, lucky nothing was in the car, but he broke both my door locks so I had to get in through the boot and unlock the door from the inside

Took me and the wife (GF at the time) to bribane and back with the entire car FULL and I mean full of our shit.

It died at 320000kms the cv joints and shocks were totally gone and it wasn't worth fixing

This was my first car:

85456241.jpg?t=1274912378

Bought her for $4500Was a Manual Turbo with around 170,000KM on the clock.

Was making around ~150Rwkw, was quite fun to drive while it lasted. I had 7k saved to drop in an RB25, however it was defected prior and it ended up sitting for a year before i finally decided to flog it off. By then idd already bought my 32 GTR, so didnt see the sense in keeping both.

Was sad to see her go though :(

    • 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.
