What are you going to do regarding the engine harness? The question is, IS the stagea plug the same as a R34 GTT?

If need be, use a R34 GTT harness

There is one for sale at the moment for $400

When my 2 Stagea's get here in approx 3 weeks, I will be able to compare my S1 and S2 side by side, and also have my R33 GTST to compare with if need be.

Also my importer mate has 2-off S2 Stagea Neo engines with "manual boxes" attached coming this week, so I will be comparing them aswell.

i Spoke to John at UAS yesterday, he can supply, fit and dyno tune a power fc onto a S2 rs four s stagea for $2200

Bozidar, who i work with for saikoogarage.com can do an installed an tuned pfc for 1800. You'd probably get change.

And he can sure tune em - he built a 180sx w/ SR20DET up that does 11.3 quarters.

the next thing of course is which specific model FC to get? as there are a few different ones available?

if anyone has a specific part number/model number would be a good thing to go on.

would make life easier when searching the net or shops for prices etc.

Thats really does suck, because i do believe well in my case anyway that it is a waste of time and money going manual, i would just be better off buying a 260rs which im not going to do as of yet anyway, or just going back to an S13/14/15 manual standard from factory.

If you want manual buy a car manual from factory, conversions are always a pain in the arse.... and that is from experience

but for the guys who bought their stags a while back when manuals were up around 30k self import and autos were 15 to 20 grand still a cheaper proposition to go manual via a conversion and also with the ratios of manuals to autos it far easier to find a car with everything you want and the colour you want for a good price than a similar manual

my 2c

I fully understand what you are saying, and i give props to anyone who has done or is going to convert to manual.

Basically my point that i was trying to make was its a shame they dont make auto pfc, as i dont intend on going manual, well in the short term anyway.

And im sure a lot less people would go manual if they new they could get pfc for auto.

    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
    • It's TWO steering wheels actually. 😛 one for each hand They are wheels, and they steer!
