my weekend rocked

saturday. sat and bored myself shitless with a heap of lessons for this army drivers course. came home, went for a mud bash sat nite

sunday: went to u pull it for a couple of bits, sold my roof rack to a mate in the arvo, then went for a big mud bash with luke and flick and a few of my mates

monday: went across town and worked on the skyline all day, then worked out i had homework from this drivers course, so went for a drive last night

today: RDO, finishing my homework off hehe

Damn ...

Stagea is stuck in 3rd gear. A/T light flashes at me and stag drives in 3rd gear (since lunchtime today). Had a service and shift kit installed by MV Auto 10,000kms ago ... whole car only 61,000kms old. Anyone got any ideas? I've already hit up the Stag section for an answer.

:happy:

Registered the silver Stag today, so I guess thats a sign to take the black stag off the road for a while. :ninja:

maybe the speed created by the downforce of the JDM MESH caused some to dislodge and wrap around you transmission dooflickey

i think it is related to the blue mesh....too much downforce, power, torque almost too much everything really with that BLUE MESH :happy:

i think since the blue mesh has given you too much power etc your transmission cannot handle it anymore.....time for more blue mesh and a better trans maybe.....

on another note check if your ecu hasnt gone into limp mode.....if using aftermarket ECU maybe check the data and see if there is something unusual in there....goodluck with it all ruby

No aftermarket ecu. Stock ecu does appear to be in limp mode. I've browsed the Stagea and Transmission threads and have a few options (although none are definite solutions). I'm going to start with the easiest solution and work my way up to the harder (expensive) solution, by checking the trans fluid level first. I doubt its the solenoids (and hope they're not) as the car is only 61,000kms old and MV serviced the box less than 10,000kms ago ... plus the shift solenoids are expensive!

If all else fails, I guess I'm doing that manual conversion sooner than I thought. I'll also check the Mv invoice for the warranty period and have them dianose the box problem. I'll drive the silver stag around in the meantime.

    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
    • But if you had to go bury a body in the forest, would you not put that in the boot? Most of them are >=90kg these days.
