I saw someone else in this thread asking for vehicle details using the VIN for a stag, so I'm hoping I can do the same - it's NM35315451 - checkitout.com.au doesn't give me anything. It's a car I'm thinking about purchasing, and just trying to find out a little more about it before going to look.

Cheers.

I hope you are not in Australia Richard because that is a VQ25DD engine in that there 250RS four.

Not eligible for compliance.

Otherwise;

March '02 build

No HICAS

Cold pack option

and another option that I do not know (Code: GLSSW)

EDIT: I suppose if it was a private import that is already in the country, then you would be fine

Hmm that's interesting - this is the car for sale here: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Nissan-M35-STAGEA-2...7QQcmdZViewItem

As you can see, it's listed and being sold as a turbo.

BTW what's a cold pack? I've only just discovered the Stagea in the last couple of days and I've been devouring all the info I can find as it's fired my interest.

Oops. Sorry mate, dyslexia starting to kick in :rofl:

Don't know what the options are though, maybe someone here that can read Japanese can tell you.

id say wrong number

the pics are showing an RX turbo (seats have electric adjustment, plus rear facing vents in the back) but fast is showing an RS

Agreed.

Perhaps give Carizma a call to let them know that either their pics or the VIN they have listed is incorrect.

i meant where you confirmed the above details as an RS four, when the picture you posted clearly states RX four :rofl:

yup. go sleep mate hahah you can FAST your heart out tomorrow

I know what you meant.

What I am saying is that the details are for an 250t RS Four, but the pics are for an RX four.

We actually agree, but it seems that you are having a bit of trouble accepting this.

im lost!

i was just pointing out you wrote RS when i think you meant RX. no big deal. go sleep mate lol

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.... *sigh*

the first incorrect VIN I put in was for an RS.

(it is right about now I am so glad that my hours are extended until 6pm :rofl: )

My apologies for the confusion Richard.

no worries, I think I get the drift!

I might go check it out this weekend - anything else I should look out for while I'm there, seeing I'm a newbie to these things? Is there any easy way to tell if a particular vehicle has the side airbags installed and not just the drivers and passengers front airbags?

yup!

there will be 'airbag' or 'SRS' above where the seatbelt attaches to the B pillar. also i think on the A pillar. i cant remember........

just check the usual wear on the pedals, make sure it looks like it lines up with the amount of ks on the car. check for unusual sounds, especially in wheel bearings... also any harsh sounds coming from the turbo, hi-pitched squealing etc....

from the pics it looks clean and tidy!

Should be RX - have another look at the FAST info you attached (this is what Iain was referring to, not the pics from ebay).

Excuse me for pointing this out - it was starting to get confusing...

Perhaps give Carizma a call to let them know that either their pics or the VIN they have listed is incorrect.

again, looking at the FAST info above, the VIN does in fact appear to be correct.

Yeah, thanks Steve.

I am well aware what Iain was referring to and I did realise the error of my ways - check out my post 3 above yours.

(has been a very long and rather arduous week - and it's only Wednesday!)

I mixed up the 5 and the 1 when I originally put in the VIN which caused me to site that it was a VQ25DD, this is what I was referring to.

I thought I was clear in explaining my errors. Perhaps not. Maybe Nick will delete/edit the confusing posts to make it clearer?

haha sorry cam i didnt mean to hassle you that much :)

Haha! Nah man, no sweat.

You were just trying to tell me I missed something, and then that I missed that I missed something, and then that I was ignoring that I missed that I missed something...

...and I STILL didn't catch on! :)

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
