how did you try get them out ???

did you drill through the stud then use an easyout?

thats the easiest way to get them out

oh and put a lil bit of heat around them with an oxy torch can loosen them up a bit

To get broken studs out if you can tack a piece of metal to it and then just undo it. I understand that it may not be possible without the room to do it or if the stud is too deep in. Just an idea that worked for me

iv found a mobile thread repair service

"peter whitefoot thread repairs", says he does broken studs and re thread etc so ill give him a call tomorrow :(

hopefully he can get it done then i can get the manifold back on, then the new turbo, then s15 injectors, then pfc with z32 afm............

then hopefully my car will be faster than brads (RDIRTY3's) car which will put me at rest :)

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that

      Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

      What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
