I had a look, and found this thread - https://forum.miata.net/vb/showthread.php?t=226162&page=30

It turns out the Mk1 MX5 uses a very similar CPU to the 200SX - 6800 based; the ECU used a mask...

I have got the emulator to version 2 (actually version 2 alpha); I am a bad programmer as I don't plan ahead; however, what I do do is learn from the challenges the coding presents. Specifically, I...

Regarding engines, the 1NZ-FE is derived from the 1NZ-FXE. Interesting that they got 150BHP out of it! What are you aiming for with your build? (also, are you on a Toyota forum somewhere about that...

I've been out of the loop with the 200SX for a long time now; but have always liked the CA engine, having had a carby 1.8 bluebird back in the day - CA18S!. I also have 3 turbocharged Bluebirds (T12,...

Hi all! I was wondering. Would there be much interest in reverse engineering the CA18DET ECU? I am currently reverse-engineering the Toyota ECUs from the 2000s and later, which involves multiple...

Thank you for pointing this out; it probably is that, given the car has been sat for a while! I will check it when it is daylight (7am in winter here - NZ - still pitch black outside!). Still...

I have just started up my 200SX; it has been stored in a garage for a few years. The oil is OK, but old, and is going to be changed etc. However, when I drove it from storage to my place, I noticed a...

I should also add... The rules are basically that any car 1990 onwards needs certain safety features. This means Micras, Primeras, 200SXs, all of them don't pass frontal
impact standards. I have a...

Thank you :) Should be able to bring most of those on the plane but will check with the airline too (would hate to have to leave behind some good tools)

If the timing belt looks OK I will trust it...

Hi! I hope it isn't this but worth checking;

My Bluebird (2.0i CA20E) developed a head gasket failure; the symptoms were no oil or water mixing, no white smoke from exhaust, but pressurised air...

Im getting it for NZD8250 which is the equivalent of £2805 at the old exchange rate of 0.34... With all the problems in Europe, the NZD has got stronger and stronger, and is now near the highest is...

This happened recently in NZ:

There was at least one classic car on that ship :( And the fuel-oil from...

I was trying to find out how to post images, but will post the auction for the car I'm buying :)

Comes with a fairly cool number plate too!

Thank you :) That is kind of what I thought!

They charge a fortune to do the timing belt, and I have another running car (a Toyota Prius - have had it for 4 months now - kind of the opposite to...

Hi!

I haven't posted here for a few years since moving to NZ and leaving my prized S13 behind (it is still in a garage, with no rust, in the UK - and will be put back on the road one day)...

In...

I think the most worrying thing about the situation at Fukushima is that, although they are minimising the damage with their reports, one thing is clear; the situation is worse with each passing day...

A friend of mine has a U13 Bluebird 2.0 non-turbo, which seems to have had blocked spray
bars. The engine makes all sorts of interesting noises, but I think the big ends are OK (for now). The spray...

Let us know how the mpgs went then when you get back; hope JAE is good :)

There is plenty of room in the back of an S13 with the seats down to fit two bikes :)

Engine sound at 1:58 sound just like it is about to die (which it did!). It kind of sounds like Jeremy Clarkson's car on the 1000 pound coupe challenge on top gear (just before it put half the engine...

It definitely doesn't do the noise when stationary, when revving the engine to 2500 rpm and 'feathering' the throttle so it revs between 1900 and 2500 rpm (letting the revs drop to 1900rpm or so and...

petrol prices : http://www.aaroadwatch.ie/eupetrolprices/default.asp

In the UK I protested by driving to get higher miles per gallon. This isn't something people here would do, so the only other thing to do is to sell the 200SX and get a Micra or Yaris D4-D or...

I would agree, anything with a D4-D engine in it (Toyotas) are very good on fuel. That Avensis I mentioned above was a D4-D 2.0 turbo - very nice to drive (for a diesel). It got 50mpg with people...

Nissan Micra 45-55mpg - not bad at all :) 200sx 25mpg or so.

Toyota Avensis 45-65mpg in my experience (well, 90mpg on long journeys at 55mph but that is another story!). This is the newer 2003->...
