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.

Welcome aboard, Anthony. Where abouts are you located?

thanks mate,im located in concord [inner west] sydney.i love this forum..ill get a bit of time soon and get to a couple of easy mods like the boost bridge,it will be nice to see how much better the thing will go at constant boost from get go.ill let you know how i go.it goes to show how much we miss out on thanks to those tuff import restrictions when these rs4 were released.it would be nice to know why they held this back from getting imported to our local nissan dealers back in 1997?they are a great package,very impressed.well done Nissan.id love to take the gtr version for a rap. :cool:

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!

    • A few suggestions: Do you have the option of retarding your exhaust cam gear to bring the power band over to the left? VCT would be turned off after you make peak torque, you see the power/torque will decay faster with it left on all the way to the limiter Once VCT is turned off, you'll find the motor will take a bit more timing being ramped in Send its mum, more boost! Of course, depends on your exhaust pressure.

    • I was back on the dyno again yesterday after completely revamping my methanol injection system. I was making 440kw at 19psi. Great, this is more then I was making last summer with my old meth system at that pressure, and I figured it would be smooth sailing up to 30+psi. We continued increasing from there and by 25psi, I had only hit 455kw. Dyno sadly lost utility power at this point and I left. We seemed to be on course to hit the same power wall as last summer (477kw@27psi). This is a built RB25 S1 stroked to a 2.8. Built and ported head with Kelford 272/262 cams. Precision 6466 Turbo. Tuner last year believed the power wall is a mix of RPM limitations (Hydro lifters/Limit set at 7600RPM) and fueling. With my new meth system, we're seeing zero knock now but it still won't go up.  What else can I do at this point? Here's my train of thought.  - It's clear from the dyno graph that I would easily make power to 8500+RPM but I'm limited to 7600RPM. I could risk increasing my limiter, but hydro lifters have me worried. What are my options here besides going NEO head or solid lifter conversion? I'm rocking a 1.05AR turbine on my 6466. Would dropping down to a .84 help shift that power down in anyway? - We're only seeing roughly a 30kw difference at the top end with VCT on or off. Is this normal? I want to confirm VCT is working properly. - Should I look into other cam options?  - Should I just keep increasing boost and see if she wakes up later on? I would expect to hit 600rwkw around 35psi with my 6466.   
    • First thought is to use a ram mount (to hold the ipad) + windscreen suction mount. The arms on the ram mount can be as long as you like, should be able to position the ipad pretty well with that setup.
