When he clears his back log I suppose. I am guessing leading up to powercruise this weekend was a hectic time for them. I am not really in a rush any more, Anna has started working so when those funds trickle through I will go get it done.

I R Jelly

lol re backlog........guess that includes me too. Yep, 100 bucks I dont get my car this week......................again.

Just spoke with Richard, That thing is going to be mental man, Sweet they look meaty

My car? Hopefully. Richard is such a good bloke could talk to him for hours.. I was just posting in the spotted thread. they have a 34 GTR at the moment getting some HP upgrades too. to skylines both getting precision turbo upgrades.

hahaha, Will be a thrid down there in a week or so. How long are you expecting until you get it back. Are you going E85 straight off the bat with this one?

Yeah ill be going e85, in my opinion is not worth tuning on anything these days. specially if the car isnt driven as a daily. I would highly recommend giving your's a go on it Clint. It will feel like a totally different car.

In regards to time frame. I havent really set one on it and am happy for it to take as long as it take to get it right. Id like it to be ready for the downshift QR day on the 28th of this month but if it isnt im not overly fussed. Next big event i want to take it to will be powerplay or a SAU event

I'll do mine the day E85 is readdily available on the North side, that is the only thing holding me back. it is still (for now) a daily.

    • 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.
