I hate coming into the qld section, I feel soooooo homesick, still miss all of you so much.......................

I have my 30th bday coming up and am doing nothing for it, well instead of having a party I'm going to a skidpan in July, cant afford to do both.

Everyone I know is in Brissie anyway, sif they'd all drive up to rocky!

yeah, know the being far away thing.. by the time I drive 80 mins to bris, and another 80mins back, for something that may only be 2 hours long - kind of not worth it.

30 eh? you old man you! that makes you AS OLD AS ME.. actually, not quite, few months less..

how is the stagea rocking along?

Yeap it's ok, I sooo wish I could afford a Z32 afm + a full retune at matty spry........................... just dreamin, but still even in the cut down tune it currently has, it still shames most thing up here, even wrx's and man rocky has about a billion of them :teehee:

There is a guy who bought a stagea for $10k who picked it up on Sunday and is driving it back here, so I wont be the only stagea in CQ anymore, not that I was anyway, there was another S1 floating around, and when I had mine in for a service, he came in and got a wheel alignment done........... but I havent seen it in the flesh myself so to speak.

it was never proven!!

I just bought an LS400, so I will at least have the car to go with it ... I can sell all sorts of good drugs using that.

wanna buy a pulsar? does skids..

2 door or 4 door? price?

2 door or 4 door? price?

they're all 4 door? the 2 door is sorta the SC400 (soarer), but not really.. price: $8k? :teehee: like joshies old one, except less f**ked/undercoated/saggy. It even comes with a medical kit and spanners! ha

the question is, ska, how well does the stag skid? :teehee:

Bloody AWESOME! in the wet I can hang it out and keep it out for ~10 secs before the awd finnally brings it back, and how awesome is that, I go from nearly 90 degrees side on, right back to straight and no kickback slewing from side to side down the street.

But with a better tune i reckon I could get it past the 90 degrees and bring it back :P

cool.. so you'll be able to have your own 2 car stagea cruises, and maybe even produce little baby stageas if they really get along :teehee:

hmmm.. tune.. stock tune ftw!

yeah stock tune for good fuel economy...................

$8k for a pulsa, pffft tell him he dreamin!

yeah.. that's the shitty thing.. to save money, you gotta spend money..

I had my powerfc all sitting here, then decided 'nah, i need some money, plenty of them around'.. suddenly they're discontinued and now cost $1500.. ouch. My friggin pulsar isn't even worth $1500 !

bahaha that's funny as, i can just imagine that happening! :teehee:

Yeah and even funnier, when the cops drive by and stop you and ask if i had just seen a "sports car" doing skids, I tell them I saw a white commodore doing skids just a second ago, he went that-a-way officer, and off they go, cause i drive a slow volvo, it doesnt skid at all :P

The wieght of the rear of the stagea is what keeps the backend out so long, you just need to get enough momentum into the rear end, chuck it out and it seems to just hang out there for aaaaages, funny but normally all 4 wheels are spinning too, so the front end does weird things when the rear end is out.........

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.   EDIT:  Not my channel but i saw this and i know that is what i want (and i have exactly this)  
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
