Hi all

Seeing as the VIC stagea clan has not had a meet in such a long time I though it would be good to keep up with the other states.

As most of us (Alex :yucky: )should have our stags on the road by the weekend of 18th Nov I thought this would be a good time to meet up and actually have a cruise with maps etc

it would also be good to meet some of the new additions since the last meet.

Firstly we need to confirm a weekend and day that EVERYONE will be able to come as it sux when someone misses out.

Secondly when we have a consensus of who will attend then a central meet point can be arranged.

Previously we have spoken about having a Great Ocean Road drive. Any other ideas would be great. Once we have the interests then a route can be drawn up

Give me your thoughts

Cheers

Ian

So at this stage the Sunday seems to be the preferred date.

so far options are Great ocean Rd and the Black Spur.

Any other ideas would be good.

If you have contact with other stagea guys that done come here often let them know about the cruise

cheers

Ian

Sounds ok, I will have to check that date.

Do we want to list up the Vic Stagea owners? There are 6 that have replied here so far, I know there are more, lets see what we can do...

soz guys i might not make it. Im not in the country and i dont know when will i be back as i am enjoying my newly born second son on the 1st. But if i make it before the 18th i will definetely make it.

Correct me if im wrong but Nov 18th is a saturday, if this is the date i am not going to be able to make and if its sunday 19th of nov i wont be able to make it either, but any other sunday would be sweet.

Please make it on a day im free i really wanna meet other Stagea owners and check out there cars!

I have the 19th marked down as a tentative at this point, a Saturday or Sunday is fine with me.

There are a few clashes happening on the 18th so I think that might be too hard for some people (or not possible at all). Should we be looking at another date just to give some options? Is a Sunday possible for everyone as it sounds like FLYSLY (Simon) can't make a Saturday at this stage? Sorry for hijacking Ian, I will let you run this, I'd like to see as many Stagea's there as possible! :)

Cheers

Luke

Oh and congrats Yudy! Enjoy!!!

Edited by munchdesign

Nice one Yudi congratulations mate. They are a blessing.

Luke mate no stress. This is a group thing so any suggestions would be great.

It seems that the weekend of the 18th and 19th might be a bit short notice for everyone. What about the weekend after that??

As you said luke it would be awesome to have everyone one come along

how about people post up dates that would suit them best and take it from there.

Gareth get an autograph for me you lucky bugger

cheers

Ian

    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
