Hey Lachlan

I'm in Dunners with a white Series 1 25X. It's pretty stock as Stageas go, and it has a couple of battle scars, but I love it! Have you had a look at the Southern Skyline Enthusiasts site? There are a couple of other Stagea drivers there. There's also a meet at the Dunedin ice rink on November 1st if you can make it. Always good to see another 'hearse' around the place.

:P

There's a few Stagea owners on SDU http://www.skylinesdownunder.co.nz/index.php but no where near as many as on SAU. There are several stealthy RB26 powered cars in Auckland but they are going too fast for me to speak to the owners. There's one stock looking car with a number plate surround that says "2.6L V8 eater" that shot by out West at the speed of light. My own ambitions are more modest...limited by lack of $$$ so currently 155 AWKW and probably have to settle for about 220AWKW when I have saved up for a new turbo.

I know this video well, but all I know about the car is that it was from Empire Imports in Christchurch, and that info was from when I posted it in the SSE forums.

      R32 Sedan - Grip and Drift (have my cake and eat it too build)

      By CRSKmD · Posted

      The 32 still sits untouched with the broken gearbox. So a little off topic but not worth having a whole new thread. The daily starlet has gotten back on the road after 9 months. Suspected blown HeadGasket at a track day resulted in a bit of scope creep rebuild. The motor got a full tear down, pressure testing, machined for MLS HG, ARP head bolts, new bearings, all new seals etc also noticed some fatigue on the stock exhaust manifold so obviously the answer was a steam pipe manifold and highflow turbo. The exhaust was also looking tired with some rust holes. So I got a slightly over kill system made up consisting of Vibrant resonator and muffler with a highflow cat. The new highflow turbo had a larger inlet so instead of adapting the old intake got a case of the might as wells and had a nicer alloy intake made After the run in was finished i bought a (probably considered retro/vintage) EBC becasue "might as well"

      R34 GTR Front Diffuser/Guard Liner questions.

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      This is kind of what I expected given the use case. I took my liners out for track days too.... It makes me consider just getting a diffuser and not bothering with the arch liners themselves. For the most part I would like to avoid water/mud/jank splashing up from under the car onto the bottom of the engine, lines, wiring, etc etc. (but brake ducts are cool too). Especially given this post on SAU here: Where it's implied you have to cut them because the actual tub is different? Which is pretty damn worrying because that is where the liners rub in a GTR with wider wheels... I definitely won't want to pay $2000 for plastic then cut them up. It also means said wider wheels rub on the tub in a GTT? FML. That said, I have found some evidence someone ran a 295/30/18 without scrubbing these liners. (and by extension.. the tub).
