Hey Mate,

I've send your updated details, but no reply as of yet.

i did send this direct to acpt tho.

i also asked moar questions and shall report as soon as i know!

Did not get a reply yet from Acpt,

so i sent details thru to Aussie distributor, which have now been updated with him

as for time frame, still unsure, still in queue as we got in just after big promotions for Acpt.. which has caused a delay.

I have the news everyone has been waiting to hear :D

I have an email at home but have not been able to post it as the forums have been moving..

the 18th i will most probably be making the final deposit and they will be getting sent out.

we are on the production line at the moment i think. so not long now :woot:

will post email when i get home

thanks for the patience

Andrew

Nice one mate. My R is is getting the gearbox and rear diff done at the same time. Then it's on the dyno for a pass or two. I have'nt made any changes since the last dyno run so it should hopefully show any gains from the CF shaft

great to see they have started. Do they have an ETA on delivery as you have stated final deposit on the 18th...

Hope they got the shaft length correct on mine

Edited by Dr R

yerp the 18th and onwards they are expecting the shafts to be ready

and i figure something like fedex for delivery dew to their size,

so thats usually under 3 days..

i will confirm all this with him

niiicee this will be interesting :laugh:

Hey Andrew..

I got one small drama in that I`m heading to Korea 26/8 then onto Oz and wont be back to Jappa until Sept 18th..I dont mind paying extra coin for fast Fedex or UPS from the states if it can be delivered before 26/8.

Whats the chance they`ll be ready by 18th this month??

Hey Mark,

I'll check with him to see what he thinks the date will be, he thinks they will be ready by the 18th but i will check again.

i'm sure dew to their length they will be fedex 2-3 day delivery anyway. its the only way to ship out of the us i know this from snowboard purchaces

Cheers bloke....

UPS do it as well..2-5 days..the more you pay the faster it gets here..

Andrew if you want snowboard gear, buy out of Japan as its cheap as chips...Boots are a hassle cause not many big feet but but last seasons boards,bindings,snow wear goggles etc are usually half price or less. The Japanese always buy the latest and greatest and hardly buy last seasons gear, plus everything goes on sale here in Oct and by Dec its heavily discounted..

More than happy to help out if your after anything...I live in the powder capital of Japan and am regularly digging me GTR out of 60~100cm plus snow dumps..sorry bit off topic

Edited by elrodeo666

Ok they should be out before then, checking up on this.. but if not is there another address we can use?

i buy my gear from america with similar situation, got a whole 3500 retail here setup for 1500 mmmm powder, i might have to visit sometime!

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox !
