Is it here yet????? Is it here yet?????

I am incredibly unhappy.

Toll are incredibly unrelaible, but they are the only option to transport vehicles from Melb.

Next week it will have to be, I am getting so impatient, I'm dying here.......

Hey Colin, is she here yet????? I'm getting impatient to know and it's not even for me... You're gonna love her when she does arrive :thumbsup:

IT HAS ARRIVED!!!!

Went to get it last weekend, got it registered couple of days ago. Havent had time for a polish yet, in fact really annoyed cos hardly had time to drive it. But I'm loving it though, love the sunroofs, and its just so much newer than the little MR2 in the background with heaps more buttons to push...

Short on cash now!!! So im spending more time fixing the MR2 for sale than driving the Stagea, its so annoying.

Sam, heard u have probs with your head? The R32 back on the road yet?

Some pics I just took:

Cool, glad to hear its going!

MR2 will be in the paper on Sat for $6,600, i'll take less for it though. SPECS:

1988 Super Edition (Targa Roof)

107,000kms (major service, all seals/belts replaced, just done!!)

Mechanically A1

Front panel damage due to wallaby

Is a bargain tho, compared to what other AW11s are for sale, one on carsguide thats done 230,000 is for sale for 8,000!!!

I'll see how it goes anyway.

There is a white series one Stagea down at JDS auto in Hobart at the moment, thats one more.

I just put a deposit on it today. Once we sell the wife's Honda CR-V Sport, in with the rest of the money and away we go!

Might be the slowest Stag in Tassie (you know, totally stock and loaded down with the pimp leather interior and all), but the wife loves it!! So will the kids!

Cheers, Greg.

P.S. You guys know that Sam (Dr.Drift) can now ECU tune R33 ECU's? I'm getting a final price for it now. Not sure about the R34 based Stags though.

Really. :P Your from NSW so i'm not sure i believe you but then again you know about Red Grasshopper so maybe i do! I'm confused. lol. pretty sure i'll be ordering pizza sunday night! Lol.

i'll crack up if that pizza is delivered in a red stagea with that huge Red Grasshopper on the roof(if it isn't tell OZ he should buy that stag and stick that grasshopper on the roof) :laughing-smiley-014:

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
