Tassie Spotto:

Spotted a white Stagea with the hatch spoiler (and R34GTT mags?) down at Tas Laser Skirmish today at lunch time.

Whoever it was, I was the fella who shot up the guy doing the demo for your group to show you what happens when you get shot!

WAS SOOOOO MUCH FUN!

Cheers, Greg.

Yeah, I organised for my work mates to head down there, skirmish was pretty cool!!!

The mags are standard on the RS FOUR model S2 Stagea, it is the model with the R34 GT-T (NEO) engine, so I guess they were modelled on the R34GT-T.

I'm actually doing a major suspension upgrade on Tues, really looking forward to it, gonna make it a lot more predictable to drive!! Losing 4cm in the process too, so look out for the slightly lowered white Stag after Tues.....

Hold on, are you the one in the white S1 which people keep confusing for me??? I WAS the only white Stag in Hobart, not any more :(

To my knowledge, there is 3 of us now. We have a Pearl White S1 RS-Four, a flat white S1, and yours. Apparently another one has come down from NSW in the last week or two but I don't know who has it down here.

Oh well, bound to happen I guess.... :ermm:

I'll just have to teach my friends the difference between a S1 & S2, seems pretty clear to me but they just dont get it!!

Suspension is being ripped out right now, cant wait to get the car back!!

Spotted by a mate a fellow S2 Stagea (grey, silver thing) in New Town today with a badly damaged front end, gonna cost a few pennies to fix that one from what I hear.

Also, MadazR33 just posted on the Stagea forum, what Stagea is he getting around in?

just spotted 'stage name' on the skylines aus forum, what skyline is he getting around in? :(

You might want to venture out of the Tassie section Ross and you will see there are sub forums for things other than skylines :D

Besides they all share the Nissan badge :(

Lol, madazR33 was in a forum requesting a Stagea specific sticker, as to why I assumed he had one.... but I get the sarcasm!! Surprising how many skyline drivers do not know that my car is like 90% sklyine though....

Anyhow, back to the spottos, couple of 'real' skylines, black R32 and grey/silver R33 down at salamanca just then. The R33 had some interesting head light features going on but I wont go into detail here.... :domokun:

u assumed right! i have a silver S1 stagea (currently being fitted with a full dolhin kit) just concentrating on the outside for now, maybe more to come under the bonnet (although i promised myself i would just do the outside as i bought the stagea to stop me pouring money into my R33) so yeah i also have a R33 with some nice mods inside and out. im up in the north (devonport) when the stagea rolls out of the body shop i will post some pics up like i said i was going to when i first got it a couple of months ago

I was so close to getting a dolphin kit for mine, they look so damn awesome, but I cant justify spending more money on cars, plus they are so damn low at front. Like you I bought the Stagea so I could stop spening money on machines, but it hasnt been much better so far!!!

Yeah, I realised you would have knonw about them slyhcr32!! Insane little features is about the right words, why does a car really need self closing rear boot?? Only the Japanese will know.....

    • I have an R34 GT that had a turbo added. It runs for a couple of mins then the engine just cuts out.  And requires pumping the throttle to start it back up. I unplugged the MAF and it runs without cutting out at all although the AFR is all over the place. I have replaced the MAF but am back to my original issue.
    • Right. Of course i knew the turbo inlet is sucking air. Just testing you. 
    • Im re-inventing the wheel lol
    • Issue resolved.  So I was driving a couple weeks ago and noticed everytime I got on or off the highway (long right hand turns) the car would bog for a second and then pick back up. Decided then to just change the fuel pump.  In doing so when I pulled out the fuel pump I noticed that the fuel strainer was very dirty on the bottom. Additionally, there was a little rust in the tank. The fuel strainer was only partially seated on the bottom of the pump which I was surprised to see was an AEM 340. I removed the fuel filter and it was clean coming out the out end and straight rust water coming out of the feed side.  I changed the fuel filter and replaced the fuel pump. While I was there I went ahead and installed radium studs in the fuel hat and rewired the fuel pump with the relay mod, correctly this time. Used 12ga straight from the battery with a 20amp relay and inline fuse.  Car feels much better. Only thing I have left to get it up to par is replacing the exhaust gasket and installing new exhaust mani studs to fix the missing one and the broken one. Once I do that I'll be investing in some data logging equipment. Looking forward to enjoying this 32 this summer. Wanted to thank all of you guys for all of your help and post the fix in case anyone is dealing with a similar issue.
