pics up tonight. this car is fkn amazing. bitch of a thing to drive (Twin plate clutch + short shift kit == rough), but its soooo worth it :)

the twin plate and short shifter in my old car were the best mods it had! you will get used to it..and do you revmatch on down shifts?? That makes it alot smoother

atm i usually just cheat.. break for a bit, then blip the throttle while i change then start breaking again - its a lot smoother when i do that. gonna start training myself to heel toe. im very happy.. car is just insane to drive..... atm ive only been game to use low boost (~450awhp).. and that still feels too fast... high boost is ~ 550awhp.. gonna be taking it easy for next few weeks.... i still get speed giggles after giving it a squirt.. its just insane.

dude that is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo nice

ihateu now gtfo and drive that shit

well, if you had foot to the floor from a 2500rpm start, it prob wont really hit boost till about 4000rpm.. full before 5000, but its not designed to be driven down low.. anything below 2000rpm and the car doesnt like it. im usually changing gears at ~3500 to drive smoothly. if you started off at 3500-4000 it still takes a couple of seconds to spool up, but its not too bad for a single.. T04Z is a good turbo.

btw when i say full, i mean low boost setting only.. high boost will obviously add a bit more spool time.. car revs out to 8800.. and only thing stopping it from going further is the crank.. forged crank and it would rev to 10k prob.

current list of things to do:

- raise car ~15mm (currently front lip sits 90mm off ground)

- plum back screamer pipe and add a cat (well.. something that looks like a cat anyway :))

- touch up tune @ Matt Spry's

- QR racedays :)

how good are screamers :)

you dont happen to know who did the roadworthy on this car do you?? Sounds like they may be useful to me over the next few weeks!

i still get speed giggles after giving it a squirt.. its just insane.

:(

sweet looking car!

Ditto :(

remember to always double the clutch!!!!!

"You amost had me, you never had me, you never had your car"

Sorry, F&F quote time again... :D

Car looks nice, few questions but

Does it have a back seat or rear interia or was it bought with the cage in and the mod plate for the cage???

Hey whats down on the mod plate in terms of codes??? Cause i notice there is no drivers airbag either ands it said it was a series 3 right...???

So I assume that the mod plate is for the 2 seater mod (rollcage in other words) and for the removal of the air bag from the drivers side.

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
