Ahhhh... That would have been my Stagea. Awesome day for the beach, lol. I was there with my new housemate and a few of his friends, one of them owns the maroon R32 you saw. Well, providing it had 19" meshies.

i see ur stag fkn everywhere!, very neat i must say

Did it have a Hybrid Intercooler and gold rims? If so I seen this guy just round the corner from there trying to drift into my mates street and he had a go at us as he drove past. He's my hero. :banana:

Yep, that would be the one, its still parked there now with stuff on the roof and something on the front windscreen, almost looks like its been dumped there.

also today i spotted (RBR 260) at Seacliff, a blue 32 GTR on Anzac's had the plates (IGTR32I) and Matty in the Patrol crossing Anzacs. Also going up cement hill at about 4.15 i spotted a whit stag going down the hill.

spotted a newer stagea today on montague road. headin towards bridge rd from ingle farm.

was silver.

had an autech badge and an axis badge.

That could be Andrew's Stag (Blue32), his is silver and has both those badges and i think it has CC plates also.

^^ true, i look at it everyday reminding me of when i had mine. Im just round the corner in the silver stag.

haha that was me in the red R33 in front of you along comercial rd the other day.i tured down aldam and went along jane street and came out on clif av.you turned onto clif av from comercial rd and just passed me waiting to turn onto clif av.

i recognise your patrol now matty lol! i always see that 31 parked out the front of that house but iv never seen it driving before.

yea i seen them. followed em for a bit till i got pulled over for random BOV, Turbo and turbo timer check. think you went past while he was almost under my engine looking at everything. no defect yay. but then again not much to defect on my car.

Hey, was that you i passed going down Jetty Rd??? I got pulled into that defect station they had set up at the bay, checked my licence and rego, then started looking over my car, i was waiting for them to tell me to pop the bonnet, but they never asked. :thumbsup:

yea that was me. gave you a wave but a lil late :thumbsup: that RBT was staring at me the whole time i passed them. had to stop cause i had a cop infront of me wanted to say hi to them and stop traffic.

id alreay had enough of cops checkin my car by that stage. never had my car checked as thoughly as that before.

Spotted a black s2 Stagea with gold rims last night on Anzac Hwy, rolling with some other (non Nissan) cars, including a wanker in a rotary. 4 door 808 type rotary had "Madaz" sticker on the back. Anyone know this fool? Got a few words for him about his driving :banana:

    • I'm looking for some real world experiences/feed back from anyone who has personally ran a EFR7670 with a 1.05 exhaust housing or a .83 I'm leaning towards the .83 because its a street car used mostly for spirited driving in the canyons roads. I"m not looking for big numbers on paper. I want a responsive powerband that will be very linear to 8000 rpm. I dont mind if power remains somewhat flat but dont want power to drop off on top. The turbo I've purchased is a 1.05, although the mounting flange T3 vs T4 and internal vs external waste gates are different on both housings, I not concern about swapping parts or making fabrication mods to get what I want. Based on some of the research I've done with chat gpt, the 1.05 housing seems to be the way to go with slightly more lag and future proofing for more mods but recommends .83 for best response/street car setup. AI doesn't have the same emotions as real people driving a GTR so I think you guys will be able to give me better feed back 😀   
    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
