Black & white for sure - nice contrast... but you gotta colour code the grey ARX "beard".

Done the turbo, exhaust & rims, got the ECU (Emanage Ultimate), dreaming of the CV8 with paddle shift, swaybars will be by the end of the year, can't do suspension until I move into a house without a rediculously steep driveway.... *Is that my bank account I hear screaming?*

btw. Did you get the wiring diagram you needed for your Haltech?

(in the workshop manual thread if you haven't)

Just got the diagram then....sent it onto Haltec......looks to be the poo! GOLD!!!...thankyou.

P.S.Where the F..k did you get that......someone must have alot of time on there hands....not you, the person who did all the wiring diagrams.

P.S.S I nearly did the ARX plastic's colour coded...then I found the pic below....kinda reminds me of my Grandma's couches....after that I figured "cannot polish a turd" and left it as it is...after all it is only a stationwagon....or is it!!!!.......hmmmmm!!!!.....just started raining outside............HEH HEH!

Google is my friend... It was the 6th page down on my search, although I can't seem to find it now :D

Black colour coding looks much better than white (black is "slimming" remember). Now where did I put that pic...

Rain + NM35 Stagea = :D

Light rain + NM35 Stagea + hilly, twisy road = :(

When are you getting the Haltec installed? Did you say it was the Interceptor??

I have been told by a turner that he has improved economy by ~10% & power by ~20% with the Interceptor.

Buffed my car today. Knew being a detailer would come in handy one day........

Anyways. Then I got a new DSLR camera, so buffed Stagea + awesome camera = pics. More tonight at sunset and a wash.

lol. I don't buff a car for less than $200 I'm afraid. Some people are more than happy to pay that because the paint will be as close as I can get it to being the day it left the showroom, but others don't think it's that important.

If your paints silver then it shouldn't really show up scratches anyway?

And I definatly don't have many skills with the camera yet. That was the first time I used it and all I was changing was the focus, zoom and aperture, the rest was all on auto :)

Glad to hear mate!!

This will probably be me this coming weekend!! :( Yours must've been on the same boat as mine, and got through compliance a little quicker? Mine's still at the compliancer's but I'm pretty confident I should get it in the next couple days.

I've owned a s2 stagea before so will be very interesting to see what Nissan have done to improve on it with the M35.

Looking forward to seeing the pics, and I'll upload some of my own hopefully soon! :)

OMG. Just you wait!

I looked at a series 2 (with pod filter & exhaust) before I got mine, but left less than impressed (so did the missus).

Got in my NM35...

Addicted.

Just want to drive it everywhere (and do).

My Fiance looooves it - so does everyone else that sits in or is chauffered around :D

Fits my (very large) dogs & suprises most (including that red HSV 255 R8 yesterday in Berwick :cool: - man was he pissed :rofl: )

hahaha im finding that i want to drive it everywhere too!!

in coffs i stacked the back end with furniture for my mother. fitted no problems. ended up fitting more than i expected!

i think i should have asked for a different interor colour. the beige is a little bland in colouring. i mean all over the dash and console area. looks dated. or maybe im just used to all black from all my other cars....... still extremely happy!

and pixel youll be happy as this weekend! i didnt sleep the night before i picked mine up. yeah im a kid when it comes to cars

i've been losing sleep over it for the past two months!! :rofl:

just hope i do get it this week...dont wanna wait yet another weekend :cool:

i never knew how hard waiting was till i started buying cars.........

agreed. i thought I was a very patient person until now...

Still dont have my car...obviously things are taking a little longer than expected. :banana:

Will have it today or tomorrow at the latest. Will have plenty more to say after I get it, but for now I'm gonna keep my mouth shut.

never been able to take a pic of this before with my crappy old camera. anyways its my other stagea :P

I have the same Stagea! It was the only one I could afford when I was 14 :) . I got it when I went on a school trip to Japan. Good times good times.

Anyway, I'm still stuck with my camera phone, so my pics aren't flash. Here they are anyway (with Dad's WA32 Cefiro in the background).

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
