LOL :P

I'll continue on in that vein:

*Im over 2meters tall, so have no hope of fitting in with a manual AND have a useable seat behind me,

it is afterall our family car & needs to be used that way.

*Mine gets driven 75% in the city, always peak hour traffic, & after 7 knee surgeries I dont need to push

my joints unneccesarily - auto takes out that push in/out in/out in/out effect; that'd kill me.

*Yup, the car still drives well with auto rain or shine - mind you Id like to testdrive a manual Stagea

*I currently have a '6spd-manual' Fireblade if I feel in the mood for a fast-blast :P

Cheers all.

Gee it'd be nice if someone just punched me in the face and yelled "GET A MANUAL" haha. Make my mind up for me..

There's positives to both - just need to figure out what the purpose of this car is. Hmmm.. Either way, hopefully there will be another Stagea owner in SA soon. :)

Go the series 2, I hope everyone buys series 2, meaning that series 1 will be the rarer of the two.

Sorry but I actually perfer the look of the series 1 over the series two, each to thier own though.

I was under the impression that there are Series 1 RS Four S's out there......?

hey cyrus i also reckon the series 1 looks better except the rear lights on the series 2 are better, but the front series 2 lights look abit weird and same with the grille with spotties in em. just my opinion though :)

Well as for us we have a series 1 auto...and a series2 manual....it took us forever to find a black series 2 manual...but it will be better for the hubby with what he wants to do with it.....as for me i wanted an auto with city driving and two small children in the car i dont need to worry about changing gears etc...

Go with what you like the best...

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.

      I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
