that's my car mate. I aint got the link for pics here (not on my PC) so PM me if you want more. It's on of 800 GTS-R's ever made. And it goes alright.

Or if ya want, e-mail [email protected] i got a few more that aint on the net :D

But yer... Megz... those photo's have done the rounds now huh :D

that car and 6000RPM, you hit boost and just hang on.

RWD... light as, its really something to be in to understand

To give you an idea of the sillyness of this car before it's rebuild... in 3rd, sam mashed the pedal and in 2 secs this car produced enough smoke to fill the entire street with smoke.

That's how crazy the wheelsipn was and that was with semi comps on the rear of it when it hit boost, just two fat black lines down the road.

And i can vouch for sam's driving, after seeing 1st hand the way he controlled that can i can definately say that man can drive.

he still struggles with my clutch though :shake: :shake:

yeah te car is awsome on testing on the dyno 4 th ran out @ 280 kph :)we believe the car was used for wagan and for drag stuff if it hooks up 10 for sure.

it is the one car that has left a lasting impression.

do you why cause I could get used to driving it :D

yep niotto's and slick are on the card remember peeps this was only at 16 psi wait till it hits 28 psi or 2 bar :D

I was not implying anything megs. Just curious. Cant wait to see it run some numbers. I know tuning is a very important factor in the life of an engine. Good luck to everyone involved

    • 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 !
