ohh nice dude!!!

sad to see that go, they are rare as hell, and rarer still in RHD!!

they were all RHD...only 16 built....here in Australia.

very sad to see it go...should have gotten rid of the wife instead :down:

only 16? i didnt know they were THAT rare. how many did the judge have? because he passed away in one of them at EC (i was there)

they released something similar in europe, might have had a different name. and it was probably done by alfa

I never wish bad upon anyone.....but this too will happen to you!...and before you realise it....I remember having a Giocattolo and a HSV and lots of spare time and money to go racing....then the now wife appeared and offered me something the those cars could never give me...SEX!....10 years on I drive a family wagon, have to report in every couple of hours, race maybe three times a year and only ever get sex if I can get her drunk....she doesn't drink!....so I have to resort to begging...yes I have no dignity left.

but apparently there is a good side....just ask her!!!

Off to the workshop for the last of my six pack holiday!

Blah blah blah blah blah....need beer!

Sooo, what did you get rid of the Giocattolo? :):P

Just because the Mrs has a "Great Idea"?

Hey man, nothing wrong with upgrading from an HSV to an M35!

I too am married, but we are both aware that there is to be no reporting in (My bro has to all the time - drives all of us CRAZY!).

I mean really! Why? Where you gonna go? Scared you gonna leave?

*HINT* Get a icypole making thingy (you can tell I am great in the kitchen, eh?) and put just a little bit of Vodka in with the juice/fizzy and freeze it.

Summer comes around & keep offering her icy poles... Problem solved!

Better still, make her a nice warm drink on a cold night to warm her up! She will love it!!

ingredients:

Milk

teaspoon of Honey

30ml of Kahlua "french Vanilla" (or the Haleznut flavour if she doesn't like vanilla)

Curl up with her & watch some tv (or play some PS3/Xbox), maybe make a second one. Wait. Enjoy! :D

The warm milk option is great because paints you as the caring husband!

Wyld is pretty poor though.

Try crushing up some Horny Goat Weed. Works a little better.

Oh, by the way, SAU-NSW are having a track day @ Oran Park on Friday June 12th.

This is one of the last opportunities to do Oran Park GP EVER, as it's going to close FOREVER either December this year or early January 2010 to be replaced by a housing estate. :laugh::( :(

I might be using this opportunity to finally take my car on the track, and have the honour of being able to say I raced on the OP-GP circuit years from now when it's just a distant memory.

Please don't make me be the only Stagea ever to hit the tracks here in Sydney - come along and enjoy the day (and the track) with me!

Use the link below to join SAU-NSW so you can have access to the Members' section and secure your spot early - if the day fills out with Members, then non-Members won't be getting the chance to attend (except as spectators)... You don't want that, do you?

What requirements does ones car need to have a gentle cruise around the track.

What requirements does ones car need to have a gentle cruise around the track.

Basically?

For the car:

  • check all engine fluids, and replace if necessary - an oil and filter change is a MINIMUM, and add extra oil for added track stress and temperatures;
  • replace and bleed brake fluid, using higher-quality stuff for the higher temps;
  • check the condition of your brake pads and discs, replace with better items if necessary;
  • check the condition of your tyres - buy a spare set if you think you might need them;
  • remove all excess stuff from your interior - jack, spare wheel/tyre, tools, subwoofers, CDs, etc.

For the driver:

  • long sleeves, long pants, enclosed shoes;
  • an Australian Standards Approved helmet;
  • a CAMS or AASA licence. The CAMS licence will require you to be a member of a CAMS-affilliated club, which is where your SAU-NSW membership comes in; EDIT: CAMS licence NOT required for the June 12 Oran Park day...
  • a good, ready-to-have-fun attitude!

Okay everyone, I went to see Jetwreck's proposed venue and it is THE PERFECT spot!

Sounds like time to set a date and time I reckon. . . .

I propose a Sunday . . . . of course.....LOL

    • oh they were with that motor, you need to remove the engine to change the spark plugs (don't have to, but it does make it easier)
    • I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly
    • I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.
    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
