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!

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.

      Definitely a good “future upgrade” option if you plan on keeping the car and dialing it in even further.

      Nismo GT Pro LSD configurations

      No, you're wrong, and you've always been wrong about this. The Nismo has 2 sets of openings. One is a real 2-way, and the other is a 1-way. There is no 1.5-way possible with the ramps that they offer. A real 1.5-way does exist. That Cusco stuff I posted is a prime example. If the forward drive ramps are, say 55°, and the overrun ramps are, say, 30°, then you will get about half as much LSD effect on overrun than you do on drive. It is real, it realy works. OK, you're slightly right. The Nismo has 55° and 45° ramps on the 2-way, so it does offer less LSD effect on overrun. But, I think that just means that they've (probably) sensibly established that you do not want actually equal LSD effect on overrun. You just want "quite a lot, but not quite as much as the drive LSD effect".

      Yea, that is what I was getting at in my ramblings too. The nismo one actually is a 1.5 way and a 1 way. They don't do a *2* way because a true *2* way would have equal ramp angles. Or is that a true 1.5 way? Realistically I think a "1.5 way" does not actually exist. A diff can either lock in two directions or one. It also doesn't help that a LOT of people in Australia speak about 1.5 way diffs are referring to their 1 way diff.
