if you read it he says needs alot of new parts, does this mx6 have an auto or a manual gearbox cause i blew the diff on mine (89 model, auto) and it's gonna cost me 1700 for a new auto gearbox and to put it in, so if it has all the parts for the manual gearbox or if it has an auto gearbox i might take it off ya hands

need cash asap...

as it states it is an auto with heaps of options ibought it for $4500, it broke down the next day due to intercooler piping leakn etc n a few other little problems ive spent about $5500 on it and sik of it..it was originally for work but now i have a better work car (r32gtst) and i just need the cash...its been sitting for a while ever since it broke down n i bought the r32 straight away and wasnt interested in the mx6 anymore...all it needs is a head gasket to run...$500 if you can do it urself..

Cheers Dan

pms replied to. ....i dont think the head cracked ?it has a blown head gasket thats all i no..nrma just tested it and said the gasket is blown...

still looking to sell it for $1600 or thinkin bout fixing it up then selling it.....

ive got no where to work on the car, it is at my sis house..another reason 4 selling...

Come on guys i thought this would go straight away..good for the home mechanic that can replace the head gasket..

i might get interior pics and convince some people

Cheers Dan

    • 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.
    • 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
