Hey everyone,

I have been on the forums for a bit but nver really said much. I live in the same ouse as one of the guys off here and am good mates with a few other guys. I think i have been converted to nissans :) Anyway in the future once i sort out work and sell the wags I am thinknig of either a 4door r32 or a stagea. I have only had a quick look into stageas and there dont seem to be many RWD versions. How different are the drivelines of the 4WD ones to the GTR? Also are there many in the ACT? How differently do they drive to normal 4 door skylines and how are the autos? If someone on here in the ACT has one would they be willing to take me for a quick spin just to show me how the car behaves etc.

any help would be muchos helpfull

regards

-Andrew

I'm always out and about, I've been involved in the ACT crew for about 3 years now.

RWD aren't rare but they're not as popular as the AWD. You're essentially buying an R34 wagon. If you want a Stagea get the AWD model or buy a commodore wagon.

I'm undergoing a Manual conversion at the moment, When I come out again with it I'll show you what they're like.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.

      I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.

      Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
