Whoa! 13psi @ 1100 rpm....haha

lol
He was telling me last night that the boost gauge isn't work properly / at all.
I'm hoping that I'll be able to pinpoint the problem if he can post a photo of the wiring of the Omori, or at least describe it somehow.

There is an extensive build thread for my car here: http://www.mr2australia.com/mr2play/tm.aspx?m=18316

I took it apart this morning and found an air gap in one of its plugs. So now it's all sorted. So much better than the factory gauge which sort of just said yes/no when it came to boost pressure.
 
 
Here's the link to the place I got the gauges...

I dealt with Alec there, very good prices helpful with enquiries too.

Well, just walked in the door a short time ago after returning from the Melbourne 30th.
 
Car drove brilliantly there and back without missing a beat, hitting roadkill or meeting the highway patrols.
 
As I may have told some of you, I can't take this car with me where i'm off to for the foreseeable future so I have to sell it.
 
I'll do a proper 'for sale' thread and comply with the requirements soon enough - don't want a 1/5 start rating!!

A shame you have to part with it, and that's a good pic BTW - something different.

Should have told me earlier would have swapped exhausts.
What a shame you have to sell man. It's a very nice looking car.
Good luck.

And one more pic. Was odd weather, after driving through rain and some fierce wind the sun came out just before it set.
 
The clouds in the background were moving quite fast, if i had some more time and not so far still to go to get home I would have done a bit of time lapse on a go pro. That's the colours as they were, no filters or photoshop. Couldn't get back any further to avoid the damn shadow!

Your car is lovely in all white. Good luck with the sale, I'm sure it won't be too difficult to find a new owner.

I think you had multiple MR2s? After the sale of this one will you have any left?

For a minute there I thought you were leaving the MR2 scene. Clearly not haha.
 
So you are selling the lovely white one pictured here.
Own a black one that is also looking for a new home.
and have just bought another? Any details or pics of this one?
 
Awesome :)

Yeah both my cars here have to go, the black ADM GT is a nice car, interior is close to faultless, clear coat is starting to go on it's roof though.
 
This is my new one. First registered 2000, but as far as i can tell SW's stopped being made in 1999/08. It's in damn fine condition, n/a and 100% non modified. No turbo but still fun for pushing through a corner.

Nice purchase :) The Sonic Shadow colour scheme looks great. Haven't seen very many of those around!
