not a prob...raised the setting on the front....springs seem to be working well now....though I still need to do the sway bars.

Don't forget, if you can contribute to the Bushfire appeal, me and my sis will be taking donations and her work is matching them dollar-for-dollar!

Anyone coming?

Anyone coming?

I've got to go up anyway now so I will be there.

Picked up the new car this afternoon, it's going like a dream so far so will be good to give it a bigger run.

Leaving Blacktown now so should be there about 7.20pm or so.

See you there if you go.

Small turn out last night :D

Weather was good until we left Berowra and hit the Freeway, the clouds poured a great deal of rain from a great height :thumbsup:

I lost everyone as I was just easing myself into the power and the 4WD.

Goes great though, when I pulled out of Macca's when everyone left I gave it a gentle boot and she got up and partied :wave: Nice traction and great power delivery.

Anyway, I'm over the moon and can see this thing is going to cost me an arm and a leg in fuel ;)

Sorry about missing last night.

BTW....If Stephen, Ian and myself are go next week does that mean that the M35's will outnumber the C34's? :P

All good, the rain was a bit of a deterrent and it bucketed down while we were heading through Mt White, if I remember correctly. But it was clear enough once we got there, just a bit too cold. Are we still in summer?

Who cares about C34s outnumbering M35s or vice-versa? :D I think we should first focus on Stageas outnumbering (or at least approaching) the number of Skylines there!

lol....just looking for a bite or just a shit stir :P ....I agree lets try and outnumber the Skylines for once.

hey don't be hassling the mighty corollas. here is the beast i built (and sold):

130rwkw / 850kg = fair bit faster than stock M35 :)

but seriously though, i'm jealous of your red wagon Stephen. its just the sort i'm after. once the warranty is up on our other car i'll be looking for one with the Aero kit/cloth seats/3 gauges/tv for sure.

I wasn't really hassling the rolla's, they were huge back in the day.

Still a few getting around here and there, the rest of probably all rusted out and died painful deaths :)

I should have got a rolla for my first car instead of the sh!tbox Holden Sunbird I got, haha.. that was a shocker.

Good luck with finding an M35 when the time is right, hopefully you'll find the ideal one you are after. With the situation of the Aussie dollar tho the prices will probably keep going up :)

Like Benny's yellow KE55 wagon that you saw last night? That car's funny - it tears through the corners, but as soon as it sees a hint of upward incline, it disappears from your rear-view mirror as you easily maintain speed up the same hills with just a mild flex of your right toe.

Hahaha, but rolla's fly down hill!!!

I just took the stag to the RTA at St Martins Village, in the wet :thumbsup: Didn't miss a bit, manual changing hi rev's, engine braking and it doesn't even slide a jiffy!

It is madness, how did I last 34 years without a stag?? I'm left wondering now, shame that Nissan isn't manufacturing them anymore :rolleyes:

ok so it turns out im not ready to drive just yet.......

had a hard time pressing the brakes, and not being able to stop in time isnt good when driving a car. might have to give this week a miss. sorry guys!

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
