Just a suggestion, this time we really need to get our sh!t together and do a decent group photo. I am pretty sure we have the best attendance in Australia for Stagea cruises and we need to have proof! If we are going to do the dam run there will be plenty of opportunities.

So, if you are in WA and own a stagea, make sure you come along, even if you don't post here that often!

Lee the trader hahah, i new he was lookin at getting rid of it but didnt know if he was or not, i suppose he got an evo like he said he wanted?

i was meant to take him for a run in my stagea a while ago but shit went bad before i got a chance ;)

i havent even seen him on msn in ages, he must have better things to do :)

i am not online much anymore either, i am out and about these days doin other stuff and i dont have the opportunity to get on the net at work.

anyway let us know the final details and ill be there for a look and a chat to ya all :D

hahahah he is not a trader...he got another turbo, but your guess is incorrect :) :) you will never guess actually :)

yeah i offered him seats in the stagea if he didnt want to bring his new car :)

hahaha so 'doing stuff' whats the next project your working on ;)

yep should have a confirmed date by this weekend :) will be good to catch up with everyone again :)

got a couple of new toys to play around with and i havent actually touched my stagea in about 4 weeks to be honest, im losing motivation again from all these setbacks. should be running in about a month or so if im lucky (which i never am :laughing-smiley-014: )

sorry for getting the thread offtopic :)

cheaper alternatives to real cars ahaha, remote control monster truck (traxxis revo 3.3) and a schumacher nitro fusion onroad remote control car that does 100kmh+

been playing with the old mans helicopter too (electric one not petrol) as well and its rather difficult to fly

so what cars Lee got?

Puuuuhhhhhlllllleeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaasssssssseeeeeeeee?????????? :O

the extra detail definately sucked me in :D:P i would hate to think how much fuel the stag would use on the trip over :D

another good cruise is to head up to mundairing and stop off at Little Ceasers Pizza! ( for a late lunch early dinner)

do you ( stagea drivers ) ever plan country trips? ie to dwellingup or whatever?

camping trips etc are good cause you can get on the booze and not have to worry about driving anywhere.

we would need a third mortgage then...2 stageas to fuel up :)

I could probably dig up receipts for an estimate if I got motivation, Brisbane to Kal but. dunno if that is the same. Anyway it's not the gas it's the meals & accom/showers/bed that screw the moths outta the wallpaper.

Cheers GW :):) oops

Hah I haven't been to mundairing for a while but last time I went I got freaked out by the road, and the steep descent on each side.. Seemed like a 5-10m drop on each side.. The creaky old bus I was in didn't make it any better. I've got to say that is a far way away to get some pizza :) As much as I do like pizza...

i drove my 260 stagea back from brisbane to perth and i think it cost about 650 in fuel but that is doin 130/140 most of the way, running it on bp ultimate and payin $1.68 and $1.63 a ltr at two stops. It was about another 500-600 for two people for food/accomadatuion etc. and this was in march 07

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
