Oh, for crying out loud

and slobbering down the sink! :)

I've created another monster :) ...I left the numbers blank because there is nothing to hate..

(except maybe the lack of cruise control)

My wife warned me this would happen...but then when do I ever listen to her... :laugh:

1. lack of drivers legroom

2. lack of drivers headroom

3. lack of backseat legroom once drives seatrail extended to make up for deficit #1

4. should have come stnd with a higher flowing turbocharger

WTF were you expecting?

If everyone loved their stag unconditionally, this forum would be a pretty damn boring place with everyone talking about how they AREN'T modifying their car because it is perfect just the way it is.... :)

The thing that I love about the car modifying culture is that everyone has their own ideas and perceptions on how things should be done.

Oh, and ALWAYS listen to She Who Must Be Obeyed....... :)

Just to piss everyone off

- I have a tow bar

- I have cruise control

- I have the gauges mounted nicely

- I have enough leg room

- I have a highflow turbo

- I have decent fuel consumption (10L hwy, 14L city)

- I have found the upgrade kit (Bilstein/Whiteline) excellent, double wishbones are the bomb

- I have wheels that look great, fit well and don't rub at all

- I have found aftermarket support pretty great, I've gotten every replacement part pretty easily. Just had to use my brain in some cases

BUT, what annoys me

- auto, 4wd and heavy (not AS fun, cant drift/skid it, chews tyres/fuel when on the fang)

So then my question, why isnt someone buying my reasonably priced, well equipped, well performing wagon?

1. I don't drive it enough to enjoy the superior handling from the double wishbone suspension all round :laugh:

2. I don't have enough time to fit all the parts I have for it in the garage

3. The fuel tank isn't big enough when towing the race car (which also has double wishbone suspension all round)

4. People keep wanting to borrow it, fast waggons are not exactly common

5. I keep thinking what it would be like if I just slipped an RB31DET into it :rofl:

:laugh: cheers :P

excuse my nOObness (again) but WTF is a RB31DET??

I have read up on the RB30 upgrade (and am currently in negotiations for my left testicle :rofl: )

as I think the torque gain makes it the most viable mod for the ol' family truckster but what is the 31 bit?

Overbore perhaps?

    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
    • I started removing the tank a while back with the intent to give it a proper clean. Got to a bolt that I couldn't undo completely due to a diff being in the way, so just said f**k it and siphoned the gluggy old fuel out and called it a day. Looking it the tank it looks less corroded than the one in the pics for that billet hanger from Frenchy's anyway. Isn't it the fuel filters job to worry about this stuff? I scraped off most the crusty shit of the hanger but will give it another go before reinstall coz maybe the fuel and return pipes are also full of gunk
