Just throwing an idea out there.

I know this is different to almost all other car specific forums, but I think that we need a Stagea off topic section to ourselves, or for our section to be more loosely policed.

I find that I feel very comfortable in the stagea section and I really like the crowd we have in here. I think many people agree with me and that is why sometimes we get OT topics, because we dont want comments from general dicks in the real OT section.

The alternative to another section (like the classifieds) is just to be very loosely policed about what discussions go on in here.

Anyone else got an opinion on the matter?

I'm all 4 it. I also like our little community - almost like a family!

However, I've noticed that many of our threads are read and commented on by outsiders (ie the GD's that we are trying to avoid).

So how do we prevent them taking over the OT Section?

Man, are we cliquey or what?

Hey Dan/Ska are you able to make this idea a bit like a Members Only section?? Like the SauWA etc members sections...how they are hidden from non members... perhaps we could only open it to those with stagea's ??

I don't really think it has to be "exclusive" to us, it's alright to have the opinions of others once in a while too... If they do start to act like idiots and start causing trouble, then we could then deal with that appropriately when it occurs.

haha, good to see that I was on a winner.

we couldnt make it members only, unless, we start a "Stagea Club" where we all pay to be members, but then I doubt that because uhh, we are australia wide and organizing cruises would suck.

either a wasteland thread or another section, either way I think it could be the go for us.

I reckon it is a good idea, seeing as not a lot of the stagea guys here even know or look around the other area's of the site.

I think to start with a wasteland thread would be good, and I'll sticky it, and go from there? If a single thread is not enough for any OT disscussions, then we can look at making a new section?

Personally I think a wasteland thread will suffice, I mean it does for all the state sections, and NSW & QLD do have some post whores!

    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good
    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
