I got some pics of it, and one vid of it coming back down the hill. Sounded very cool with that familiar brap, brap, brap of the rotary engine.

When I had my FD, single turbo (GT35R) street port and v-mount setup I once got 24mpg going from Bristol to Southampton. I was rather pleased with that :)

Was It You I Spotted? / Red FD southband M5 yesterday

Saw a nice red FD on the M5 southband at 16.30. Went into the services...can\'t remember which one though! (Was between Birmingham and Bristol!!)

Hey lucasl - don\'t spose you have a red J-reg FD with number plate J277? Just that i saw my old one for sale on Pistonheads being sold and the seller was saying they were planning on putting a 1JZ engine in it.

It\'s lost the scoot bonnet and 98 spec lights since I had it. It\'s also gained quite a nice set of front lights, a horrendous set of mats, a boring bonnet and quite a nice rear diffuser. Nice to see her (just about) still going though.

Lee, I was just seeing what sort of prices were about. Just wondering what sort of silly price an FD can be picked up for these days. Not really considering it - going to be getting the Evo tuned up to approx 400/400 on saturday with some nice bits of carbon fitted to boot! Can\'t wait! :D

Anyone on here who sold it, or bought it?

I might have a standard map sensor hanging around somewhere. Email me if you want me to look for it, as I don\'t come on very often (Email address on profile)

Its both. Its the gauge one and the one used by the ecu.

erm.....you forgot the one that sits under the oil filter. That\'s the temp sensor that the ECU uses, so probably the most important one!

If the wastegate is not opening i would suspect you have the vacuum lines attached the right way. As blitz says, ditch the boost controller for now, and fit a single boost/vacuum line to the wastegate to the appropriate port.

I can\'t pm you as i am not a full member: my email is available on my profile though.

Yes, i did have a red RX, but sold it about a month ago now. I now have a black Evo 8.
