Hey guys

My new bus has just arrived complied and ready to go, and should be on the road by this wednesday - just what Pawley and I needed after many backbreaking moments trying to get the baby in and out of the GTR.

A special thanks to Pawley for all his help and for washing it for me for the last 6 hours!

RB26DET engine

Have seen 96 RS4 models in adelaide for between 18-20k, but ours was imported.

so is it like the Autech model cause standard they come out with RB25det and theres also like a RSR26 model so i belive

on further looking its the Stagea 260RS

I think she just done a typo..

The Autech is the 260RS, no other Stagea's came with the rb26.

Went through regency this morning, no probs... except i forgot to take the 'owners manual' with the car.

"I'll let it go this time".... phew!

I have also spent over 100km in the car today, and must say it is a dream to drive. Quiet, silky smooth throttle, yet goes like a skun cat.

Worst part so far: $50 = 1/2 tank of fuel... sign of the times though.

Mate - mine (Stagea, yes, exactly like your photo, as you well know!) had the petrol usage problem for the first few months, I reckon you'll need to replace the oxygen sensor. Just by putting in a new one (they only last for around 40000kms) gave me an extra 120kms per tank of fuel.

Now, whats this about a owners manual? Thats simple got to be crap as far as I know - like my car didnt come with an owners manual! Id like Regency to try to make me contact the Japan owner and have them send it to me! As if!! LOL - I ended up getting the $50 one off ebay.

Also - have you got your batman suit ready to go??? Ive got to see that! LOL again. If ppl dont understand, see pg2 of : http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=104667

Lastly - I had to change the look of my Stagea from yours, I couldnt live with myself if someone waved to me thinking it was you, so it now looks like this (with a nice fmic protruding thru the Dayz front bar): http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...ic=103899&st=40

ok first it was funny but now i am seriously concerned that you two have some wierd dress ups thing happening when i'm not around? ;):ninja::P:spank:

I fail to see the problem........................ ???? :D

Nah, I can see it now, crnr of Pultney st / Rundle St, Friday evening, Paul in his batman suit (I assume he already owns one, but you dont have to tell us that Miss_N!) with a sign on his back saying "My Wife Made Me Do It"

Hell, Id pay to see that (one way to recoup fuel costs?). Think we should have a Poll on the subject matter.

      Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...

      Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.

      Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z

      Wanna rewrite all of that in, say, 2 or 3 separate sentences, so that we can read it?
