Many thanks to Mona for a well-organised cruise! It was a beautiful morning, and if the weather had stayed like that all day it would have been spot-on - warm, but will a decent, cooling breeze.

I think sorting the suspension on the Stagea will become a bigger priority now, although as it is now (standard, and very high) it did mean I could drive straight onto the ferry with no worries about scraping. It's always looked too high, but I think some work to it will also have it leaning a bit less in the corners, so SK's stabilizer bars will probably be my first suspension purchase.

Sooooo many nice cars, so little time to capture them all in photos...

Thanks Mona, it would have been an even better pic with Sam's camera and the right lens attached to it, but I had neither the skill or the right camera (although I am VERY happy with the camera I bought just before Christmas). It's also a shame that most of the cars can't be seen properly because they weren't "perfectly" lined up, but seeing as we were out for a cruise and not a photo shoot, it turned out alright...

definitely not :D

Haha, my sister was asking what your car was, Charlie, and I told her it was a bit of a forgotten '80's icon. She then says to me "OK, so we've got some Miami Vice action going on..."

Yer i didnt go to old pac speedo was dead and went with GTRsean for a cruz home and check some stuff out was a nice cruz glad N1 R33 GTR knew where the cruz was going because we(me&GTRsean) would have got lost

Good work with directions, maps and a nice cruz Moana i just cant read.

I better add the Miami Vice soundtrack to the other '80's tunes I had.

:laugh:

It's white and wiiide, but it ain't no Testarossa.

lol!!! marrrrsss said it perfectly when we were at wisemans 'i'm a man, and i don't read or need directions' or something along those lines! lol!!

'i'm a man, and i don't read or need directions'

Damned straight.

I even mute the speech instructions on my Sat Nav, because no-one's going to tell me when to turn and shit. Especially not the posh British chick whose voice I've selected.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
