I see the lack of any truely "new" stagea related topics recently.

There was once a time that I read/reply every topic, but these days, i reply in maybe 30% of them.

Bring back the glory of the suspension/brakes/SITC/transmission/attessa threads :D

Yes... I am just killing time :yes:

Ska/SK, SK particularly, you are both funny bastards.

SK. Sorry mate, we are building an office in our factory at the moment, its been hectic as a whore house on friday night down there. Carpenters buildings, plumbers/aircon people/tilers/plasterers/painters/customers in/out ALL day.

At one point, I had two customers, 2 painters, a plasterer and a plumber all there at the same time. Along with the 3 guys building the wooden frame.

PS; I will have a thread soon on how to fit DAYZ side skirts

if you like, i can take some photos to help you out with your DIY DAYZ side skirts Thread.

I was reading a thread in Skylines about all the hassles with RBT sites giving the FSkies the once over and the defects that were given.

Are WE still safe out there or are there some who have been defected?

We could always have poll on who is the worst typist and/or the worst spellar.

ive never been defected

ive never been pulled over

i regularly (weekly and/or several time a week) attend certain events which attract attention. never even had a double glance. Biggest comment I got was "wow, thats a big pipe you have out the back"

....then they saw my tail lights....

Or who double posts's? :yes:

And another thing , where are the air deflectors? And is BJ a cousin of FM?

I had the same thought yesterday Alex

It has been a bit slow

I will have something to talk about in about 2-2 weeks once my car gets complied

New R34 front and gearbox, along with the other goodies

hey darrin im waiting for the tutorial on putting a r34 gtr front on the mighty stagea :)

whats the cost worked out all up for you? and do u still plan on making a mould of the masa gaurds or are you not bothering?

im planning the 34 front one day thats for sure :whistling: and a respray in black maybe, inspired by the SWAT car club stageas i seen on those SWAT websites, they are absolutely awesome :laugh:

ill do abit of info about putting brembos on a stagea in the very very near future as i got mine all ready to go i just need some custom braided brake lines made up :)

who was chucked their stageas on a wieght bridge????? mine weighed in at 1690kg without a driver and half a tank of full, and a few bits and peices in the car, so around 1650 with low fuel and clean interior i reckon. thats with the 26 and single turbo setup as it is at the moment.

ill post a dyno video maybe as tune is booked for late next week and i just wont show the power figures for the other knobs that i dont want to see it.

ill be doing heaps more bits and peices soon when the engine side of things is done, so ill post info on stuff as i do it.

joy times ahead :D

Talking about braided brake lines. I went into PIRTEK, who are a major sponsor of motor sport, only to be told that they are not certified to do brake hoses. I thought that very odd. This is inBrisvegas.

Anyone out there know where to get braided lines here, not only for Stageas, but also S13 and 180s?

PS Hope I havn't double posted this.lol

i got my rears made up by a local shop called HOSEMART for about $100 i think and they are ADR approved (unlike jap brands and the like) which makes them 100% legal for street use.

i went to get my fronts done there but they couldnt use the same mounting blocks that the factory lines use for some reason and i didnt like that idea as i'd have no mounting points and i suspect that would be illegal if i had to ziptie them to the strut :whistling:

im going to try enzed and get a guy to come out to my house to fit up a set for the front brembos in the next week or so i hope depending if i can get some time off work.

i reckon the brembos braking distance will give me a shock compared to the stock calipers/rotors :laugh:

    • Waaay ahead of ya....(evil laugh!!) Will show the fitment and spec details later when it isnt as rainy !
    • Thanks Dose.....    I appreciate it!!
    • I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.
    • I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.   
    • Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.
