Spoke to Nick(aka GoldZilla) on this last night....I am thinking we will extend the invite out to the C34's and others as we are all part of the same family of Volvo drivers! :D

P.S. Not that they were not invited in the first place!

Edited by Jetwreck

lol so

jetwreck pm me wat time u got in mindan well go from there :D

Just waiting on final list from Nick. Plus I want to give the c34's a chance to hook up....but I would say it will happen in the next week or so.

I am leaning towards a Sunday arvo though....say 4PM...then at least we get sunset, no traffic and it can hide all my paint imperfections...lol.

Danny, do you mind if I change the thread title to "NSW Stagea owners" to generate a bit more interest?

Can't support that idea

M35s are a totally different beast

I would support a separate M35 forum

We can't use the same mods

We can't use the same suspension

We have totally different cars

I fear you've misunderstood Nick's comment!

Nick is referring to changing the Topic of this particular thread as it is a general Stagea meet, not just M35's.

I read this as being for M35

There is already a general get together on Thursday nights

Yep, when you say that the Thursday night meets are a general meet, that's EXACTLY what it is, a general meet for anyone who wants to attend. In fact, it's not even an exclusively Skyline meet, and until recently when Xmetal, CL11QE, zei20l, Bis-e Bee, Jetwreck and andy65b (and a few others) occasionally started to show up, I was the ONLY Stagea there...

Correct me if I'm wrong, Danny, but the whole intention of this meet was to gather Stagea drivers together for a chat and a put-faces-to-screennames style gathering. His intention might have initially been to gather M35 drivers together to compare cars and discuss mods, but I don't think he meant it to be totally exclusive of C34 drivers.

I think I know where you're coming from too, Michael, but Stageas are rare enough that we should ALL be able to gather together and share experiences, even with the differences between models. I wouldn't try to exclude M35 drivers from anything I'd organise, Jetwreck and I discussed this the other night and he feels the same (although he likes to stir the pot :P), and I know that at least one C34 driver feels as though there is some "rivalry" between the M35 drivers and C34 drivers, and he doesn't like it...

That's pretty sad.

Yes the C34 & M35 are quite different, but we are all from the same family.

I don't think that a separate forum for M35's is necessary. Possibly separate sticky for mods and such but that's about it.

What about 260RS owners? They share bugger all in common with "standard" C34's (body notwithstanding).

At least most M35 threads are labeled as such.

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
