hahahahahahah!

10% of the population - almost 23% of the stageas

WA FTW!!!!!!11!!!!!

Newbie,

Tamborine has a population of 4,000, and we have TWO Stageas.

At about 150 for 20 million our effort works out at, shit you figure it out.

Tambo Rules as the Stagea capital of Australia.

Concord, too easy!

I'm just past Parra. Smack bang in the middle of Parra and Blacktown, actually.

I hope you'll be bringing your new beast and displaying it at the Show and Shine in just over two week's time... :thumbsup:

I've just joined the stagea ranks today! :)

Pearl white , leather sat-nav auto etc..

BTW anyone know how to fiddle with the satnav and TV to get them working?

Only hours into it and the solenoid boost mod is done and K&N panel filter is in.

Next up split dump & front pipe.

Ahh I could kick myself. That boost mod makes soooooo much difference in the stagea, much more than I ever noticed it in the gtst. Its a must-do for everyone with standard boost.

Sorry to be noobish, what boost mod are we talking here?

boost mod is to cut the black wire on the boost control solenoid and earth the part of that wire coming from the solenoid to the body. The connector part going back to the ecu remains cut.

Normally you have only 4psi of boost before 4500rpm, then it goes to 7psi. Using this mod gives you the full 7psi at all times.

I just worked out that the satnav requires a japanese only CDROM for maps and the tv is ntsc...doh!

    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
