Hey guys me and my brother were just talking about his next car, he has 2 to chhose from and he feels a lil stuck as he wants em both lol so i thought id post it up in here to see what other ppl rekon...

he has the choice between:

1 - r33 GTST Series 2 manual, black, full body kit and 18" deep dished rims, lowered, power fc, front mount, exhaust, boostd (not sure how much psi its running), pod filter...and cant remember what else...

or

2 - Manual Stagea GTR engine twin turbo (sorry dnt no the proper name 4 this model LOL :D), lowerd, deep dish rims, pearl white spray job, full body kit, exhaust, brembo brakes...i think thats all lol

too bad i dnt have piks ;)

well, u know what i would pick.

especially an autech 260RS...mmmm

i'd go the R33 just coz i'm not a fan of wagon volvos :)

right....

stagea definitely.

r33s are like arseholes.... (just stirring, Al!!)

lol :)

Wagons may look gay but trust me, f**kin awesome, best ever young person car :laugh:

yes ;) but not gay

but, id definatly take a Stagea over an R33. only becoz im sick of r33's, and you dont see many Stageas floating around. and if he/she is a P-Plater, then thats a bonus in my eyes.

#3 MOPED FTW!!!!

Didnt Alex say his car was around 1750kg's?

That number sits in my head for some reason. And thats pretty hefy.

FARK that!!! May as well buy a Falcodoor :w00t:

And people call 33's whales :blink:

JVP: I have notice that you have avoided answering the "how heavy are Stagea's?" question... :rofl:

sorry, i didnt see the question asked.

the rego sticker says 1680kg tare, i dunno if thats correct. but its heavy. but i didnt buy it for it to be a lightweight track car. doesnt bother me how heavy it is.

and i dont see the volvo in a stagea, nor does my family, workmates and friends.

someone enlighten me....

    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
