I wish everything wa sonly 15 minutes away but the government has been building anew Perth to Mandurah rail link right down the Middle of the Kwinana freeway whilst this doesnt put anymore cars on the road the numerous speed changes from 100 to 60 to 80 to 60 to 100 and so forth seem to confuse people as well as the lane diversions and closures which only sloq us down as Perth drivers seem to have an inability to merge with other traffic. I drive to work in Joondalup in the mornings which is a 50k drive from my house and if I leave early enough it only takes 30 minutes but if I get stiuck in traffic it takes over an hour.

Once the roadworks are done at the beginning of next year though it will all be good

and I am sure anyone who lives north of Perth who has to use the Mitchell freeway to get to work will tell you how bad that is with no roadworks

lol, if i get stuck in traffic in sydney it can sometimes take more than two hours to get where i need to go

If I go the long way, and if I get every red light and if I get stick in traffic............

If all that happened, then it would take me a whole 15mins to drive from one side of Rockhampton to the other :yes:

You are lucky to get such a long trip. Prolly even get into OD and even lock it up on a fine day.

Mt. Tamborine is 1min 37secs on a foggy day and dont bother if the weather is fine. Its much better to walk.

How I loooove my retirement.lollollolhahahahaha

PS... It ought to be ESSENTIAL that location is part of registering.???Moderate.

Location is not manditory :dry:

And since you cant get 98RON petrol up the top, you have to travell down the goat track to the coomera BP and damn have to go shopping in Beenleigh, means that you have an AwEsOmE! little exciting drive ;) I have 4.3kms of straight with one 90 degree turn in it, and that is about as exciting as it gets in rocky :yes:

true, he's actually spotted my car. missus was usin it for the day. completely forgot! may seem him around soonish, will be moving to the sunny coast. He'll show me up, though... i am pretty proud to be the owner of the slickest wagon for 129km...

ps you actually looked up those distances?

been started already, but it's quite an old thread. i don't know how many of those people still have stageas

I remember that thread, and I wonder where some of the old members are now...

mcnamg (Glen) is back, but where did madwagon and Jay95R33 go? They were also very instrumental in the early days...

Does anyone else remember any missing members from when we first started posting?

Gary1, he was the previous owner of my stagea, and I dont see any stagea's either, at all.

There is a rumour floating around that there is one in yeppoon (25kms away) but yet to see it or have anyone confirm that yet...

what about DRIFFT or DRIFTT i think it was from perth, he sold his ages ago though and i have spoken to him a few times since. top bloke and very helpful ;)

saft from NZ doesnt post on here very often either but he is a wealth of good info on going fast in a stagea as his dads one ran a high 11 ages ago in a rb26 rs four.

thats about all i can think of.

Nick,

As you probably remember madwagon wrote his stagea off most likely he got something else with the insurance money and is on another forum talking about his new ride.

I thought Jay sold his car as well.

Brad yeah Nigel is very helpful I have also spoken to him since he sold his stagea I think he has a Chaser and a Delica now he is active on the delica discussion forums www.delicaclub.com I think he works for a RAW down near mandurah and he knows the blokes at autowholesale

true, he's actually spotted my car. missus was usin it for the day. completely forgot! may seem him around soonish, will be moving to the sunny coast. He'll show me up, though... i am pretty proud to be the owner of the slickest wagon for 129km...

Qiky - your stagea will show mine up any day. By the way, my sister lives in Narangba/Burpengary, so maybe we'll catch up when Im visiting her. If you dont move closer then 129 k's beforehand

    • When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?
    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
    • yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
