The weekly Coastie Cruise is back for the new year, starting tonight!

Oh, and by the way, I'd like to organise a cruise for Sydney and NSW owners either late this month or early- to mid-February. Who's keen, and who's got suggestions for a route and destination? I was thinking taking Putty Road up into the Hunter Valley...

  • 3 weeks later...

Who's coming up this week? We're thinking of taking donations for the bushfire appeal - my sister works for Unilever, and they're matching all monetary donations dollar-for-dollar.

Okay guys n gals, some of you may or may not know about the weekly thursday night meet/cruise to the coast. For those of you who

dont know, just click here or here for a full explanation. Basically we meet at the truckstop at berowra around 7.30pm, and aim for an

8pm departure. You can take the regular highway or go up the old road, its up to you. For the stagea owners who do know about this

weekly cruise, WHERE ARE YOU? I want to seriously get some major stagea representation up there! If you have any questions just

post in the thread or send me a PM i'll be glad to try answer any questions you might have.

If anyone is a little unsure of how to get to the truck stop i'd be more than happy to meet somewhere close on the way, i live in the

hills area. No excuses people, i want to see more stageas up there cos its currently only Nick and myself and we both want that to

change!

Hope to see some more of you up there over the coming weeks.

Once I get my M35 which probably won't be till this Friday I will make it to a meet.

I'll read up on it, but it sounds pretty good to me!

Count me in guys.

2001 M35 Stagea (pending)

Correction to my last post, I may if things work out collect the car tomorrow (Thursday).

All going to plan I may make the cruise tomorrow night.

Any other M35's going? :huh:

Regards

ill be able to drive probably next week, but i cant make this week :huh:

and yeah we need another M35 to show up Stephen! lol

I take it there is a large amount of WC34's but a lack of M35's?

I can understand why, I was initially after a WC34 but the mob I was dealing with didn't have anything I liked in that range. I started looking at the M35 and decided it was a better choice as everything was newer and it's a more current driveline. It's a nice vehicle it just doesn't have the same lines and appearance.

Is your car off the road or are you out of action? lol

Pic of mine attached, make sure you come up and say hello if we both make it next week.

It's a metallic wine red, it's not bad I think it grows on you. I'm led to believe it's a fairly rare colour for the M35.

As for brakes, do you need them? :P Just put a brick on the go go pedal and you'll be right! afterall it's 4wd yes? :huh:

i guess i could just back off a little earlier. they weigh 2 tons so it will come to a stop by itself :huh:

hahah nah its mostly the drugs that are making me drowsy. and if i bring the mrs to drive, theres NO way we could keep up. she has a feather foot. and last time she drove it she scraped half of one wheel on a gutter!!!

Stephen, it would be great to have you along if you manage to get your car tomorrow. We need more Stageas in general, whether they're C34s or M35s... It's usually just me along, Alex comes on occasion, and there's another owner there sometimes because he lives locally to the meet-up spot.

Ian, you should come along even if the missus is driving - it looks like the rain will continue so we'll most likely be taking the freeway anyway...

I might go tomorrow....just have to check with my social director.

If you want to go Ian I don't mind picking you up and dropping you off....let me know....and don't worry I will go the new road if you want......be good to have more M35's than C34's for once aye! :P

    • Its also worth mentioning that 30 years after it left the factory and god knows how many missed oil changes since, there is every possibility that one or more lifters are ticking because they are sticky/gummed up. To resolve that you need to pull the cams then pull each lifter, disassemble, clean, reassemble, soak in oil and re-install, and they should come up good as new.
    • What air filter are you running? Is it a panel filter in the stock air box, or a pod filter? Is the air filter the type that is oiled?   If you unplug the IACV, what rpm does the engine idle at?
    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
