S2 for 17k next to Yamaha World on South Rd overpass, at the VW Car Yard opposite the Mazda dealership.

S1 for 11k in the small car yard right inbetween Adtrans and the Fire Dept. at crn South Rd / Daws rd.

meh - Id rather a Stagea ;)

1997 Stagea's can be had for like 15k onroad freshly imported. Generally with around 80000kms etc, twin sunroof, AWD, most are auto tho.

Plus I highly doubt youd be harrased by the LAW when driving a Stagea ;)

this one's for you Nozila - the LAW thinks a Stagea is a cheap-mans Volvo! :D :sorcerer: :D

Tried carsales fella? always plenty for sale on there, even thought about a 34?

Yeah looked over most of the car sale sites and trading post and local paper. Got one lined up now :)

edit: btw thanks everyone for the advice and help, the forums have so much good info in them :)

Vange, mate I just noticed that you have an external wastegate. As in screamer pipe?

no idea, have a look next time and tell me, the exhaust place got all excited (when i first got car got new cat)when they saw some tube coming our of the turbo and connecting to the exhaust pipe n they called it an external wastegate lol, so im assuming its somthing good.

Sounds good mate just make sure and keep looking around anyway as you may find a bargain, also make sure they do all tests on the car to make sure its all good.

no i dont think youve got a screemer pipe you would know about that

and isnt your turbo stock?? therfore your wastegate would be internal

im thinking just a fancy dump pipe

here is a pic :)

the top pipe goes around the exhaust pipe and re-re connects about under the gearbox.

also the turbo looks diff from others...i dunno lol, the rust doesnt look normal either! haha

Cheers

Brad

    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 🙂 
    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
