any1 giving away a 2 seater lounge??? wanna put 1 in my room, just bought the new HP touch screen computer n everything is wireless (mouse, keyboard) so i dont have to sit at a bloody desk all the time

from memory there we some seats in the for sale thread (dw just checked they were yours :ermm::P

hello everyone

;)

Ok just got back from Dyno. Boost controller having trouble holding boost as it spikes to 25psi and by the end its at 19.5psi.

1st Run wheel spun its titties off so Pete had to tighten the straps more (made 279)

2nd run right up the top off the torque range it lost traction again and the graph fell away (made 323.8)

3rd run the heat had set in but still managed 323.2 and still wheel spun a touch up the top of the torque.

If i can get the boost to hold more stable who knows possible. I will post the dyno graph in the RB25 upgrade thread sometime today.

I owe all this to AD (aka180or200)who has done an absolutely brilliant job on tuning my car. Your a legend mate.

Needless to say i'm stoked with the outcome.

yea and we got one person to thank for it.

Niel is only doing his job....if you have a defectable car then you run the risk of being picked up....it's simple....we have regulations there for a reason and if your car isn't within those regs then pay the price to get it fixed.

Thats one reason why I've removed the mod stuff from my Stagea. Even the exhaust which has a big muffler and tip is very quiet for its size. I took it to the exhaust shop 3 times until I was happy with its noise level. Still got the cat in it too, and fitted a larger resonator, even has a new O2 sensor to ensure its running clean. My car looks great with the body kit and thats about all I need right now. I have my bikes and track days if I wanna go fast.

Getting the silver S1 Stagea registered soon now I've replaced the waterpump, O2 sensor and timing belt. Engine and gearbox has been serviced. I'll be driving that around next month when the black S2 Stagea's rego runs out. The silver stagea is as stock as they come. I can't sell it, so I might as well drive it.

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
