It was an un-timed 80% day, with passengers. Plenty of care was taken, as we were getting booted if the wheels hit the dirt. That said, I was scooting around there in about 1:30 on a good lap which is fairly quick, especially for the weight of the car.

The brakes held up fine, I never push them too hard as I like leaving some stopping in reserve.

Sandown is an older style track, to run there fast you need to cut the corners, meaning hitting the high ripple strips hard. I don't think the Stagea will ever be fast there as I care about the chassis too much.

Thanks for the love..

Is it actually that shiny or is there a trick involved? Looks awesome!

Well, I did spend the previous day cleaning and waxing the car.. so I hope a majority of the shinyness comes down to elbow grease, sweat and carnauba wax, and not just all shutter speed and aperture settings! lol

I love that rear wing! What is it? I want one. :yes:

I dont know what it is.. possibly a dolphin rear wing? I havent seen them on other Stageas much.

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
