lol i really wana know how it feels 'winning' awards no one else enters. winning by default.. classy. and all i get is gay best jap trophies :(

how about we all just get the f**k over it!!!

wanna bitch and whinge at each other like this, go to NS. f**k i wish we could back to the days when this forum never saw shit like this.

Steve, surely you can understand where Cara is coming from, its a skylines display, would look slightly weird with a silvia in there.

EDIT - not worth the argument. +1 to what Ruby said below, suck it the f**k up and go away.

Looking forward to this now, gonna be a good day, im looking forward to just chilling with some decent peeps who enjoy the same things i enjoy.

I agree.

Don't NS have a display there? I'm sure they're bringing the nappies and chuppa chups. I haven't been with SAU since the dawn of time. Wish I had been, when it had less sooks. I feel like I've wandered into a little kids sand pit. :D But there are a few grown ups here.

Cara, got your SMS. I'm bringing the gazebo, but not sure about the mini pool (who's going to fill it?).

Adrian, be good to see your 32 at the show. :)

And for those who can't understand why the Stageas are permitted at the SAU display and not Silvias ... the Stageas share the number of cylinders for a start. :(

i never mentioned i was gona enter, or even planned on entering. i just like taking shots at people up on their high horse. gota kinda slap them back to reality u know. otherwise u end up with.. lol yeah..

so by ur logic 300's and 350's can enter. and before u go saying its a V configuration, does that mean a R35 is not welcome lol :D

its all loop holes. like its been said, should be more about the cars than the stickers.. um i mean badging.

I'm sorry ... I thought you knew: the C34 Stageas (which is what my and Ben's Stageas are) share the same in-line 6 cylinder RB25 and RB26 motors and gearboxes the R32, R33 and R34 Skylines use, for starters! :D

If you can buy and enter an R35 Skyline, then I'm sure M35 Stageas will be more than welcome :)

Luke, as Nightcrawler stated in a previous post, "this is a new era on SAU".

There will be less tolerance shown towards those that like to spam threads and continue to harass contributing members.

We don't want to go the same way as some of our other counterparts down the road.......Steve if you have a problem with it, I'm sure you'll be welcome with open arms down the road.

Here's a slap back to reality for you, if I get another PM complaint regarding your continual derogatory spamming, you'll get a holiday.

Feel free to contribute in this thread but cut the crap mate.

Consider this the 1st friendly warning.

someone has been PMing u, instead of taking it up with me.. wow.

sorry not trying to spam.. ill go back to building cars, EDIT by SLED

and yes i know stagea's are almost identical to skylines bar the body. was just trying to make a point how specific someone was trying to make it for entry.

good luck on the day, at least the weather should be much better this weekend.

Cara, got your SMS. I'm bringing the gazebo, but not sure about the mini pool (who's going to fill it?).

thanks ruby, now we have two gazebos....yours and vu's so will have plenty of shade there.......

would it be worth some people bringing nibbles and others bringing drinks to share??

whats ur thoughts on this!!

I think as far as consumables (food and drinks) goes, people can cater for themselves. But if people are happy to bring the odd drink and/or chips, then no harm done, as long as they're not expected to.

I'll bring the camping pins and hammer too to anchor the gazebo so it don't blow away! :) However, I do need to double check with Tracy, as I'm not sure if we are actually to owners of it. :banana:

haha.

i have a massive gazebo that will easily fit us all in, but the box is half the length of my car so no chance of getting it there :)

You see? That where those poor Skylines fail ... you need extra room! :banana: Mmmm, something like ... a ... Stagea :yes:

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
