Re: Larry's 200sx s14

Thinking of where the wastegate should be positioned ? Towards the back, side or front. I have seen it many place. Would like to know where it works best.

Re: Larry's 200sx s14

I might be crazy but I want the car to pull like it use to before fitting the new parts. Then I know i am not mislead by the new parts and think the car is better. Then it still has this "lag" problem. New Parts: :mrgreen: Front mount cooler Boost pipes or intercooler pipes The bigger Turb...

Re: Larry's 200sx s14

Checked the plug and checked the sensor. There is also power on the sensor but still no VCT. Okay next I think I am going to clean the MAF sensor again. Then check for boost leak. I notice the pipe on the intake has had its days too. Doesn't look good.

Re: Larry's 200sx s14

Question: Any reason why the VCT is not kicking in ? There is very very low power or the car is very lazy in the low RPMs. I tried to clean the MAF sensor, checked the wiring, checked the ECU also all the pipe are solid. But still its lazy from the low revs only once boost is loaded it moves nice. A...

Took on the mountain again with a different type of drive. Just cruising to Du Toits kloof lodge with friends during festive times was really great. Really nice route with great views.

Re: Larry's 200sx s14

After many different options and long searching. I decided to go with this wheel and color. The reasons was simple it looks good and has always been a nice fit on the s14. I might change it in the near future but for now, I am loving the look with the soft blue color. Nothing too hectic or so. [smil...

Re: Larry's 200sx s14

Finally, I order the window motor. I checked many options and many sites to find the right window motor but there was always a problem and just decided to go OEM and get the part that is original. Yeah might be a bit of a stiff price but I know it will fit 100% and i can send it back if it's not the...

Re: Larry's 200sx s14

So that explained my slight panic driving back from a quick trip to Cape Gate side to get some Nandos haha. We limped home slowly but surely. Now its time to replace and fix. I am super lucky to always have my dad on my side not only when it comes to the car and life choices but also as my car buddy...

A really fun day taking the cars out on some backroads in Paarl. For my really nice roads and hardly any cars on a Saturday afternoon.
