I am surprised and pleased at the responses to "the coolest' and "bad bits". It shows that we Stagea owners have feelings.

Next question is "What have you done to your Stagea that has given you the most satisfaction"

WTF....the biggest BUZZ> The most expensive BUZZ>The cheapest BUZZ>The most disappointing BUZZ.(No sex please) :thumbsup:

rear strut brace made the most dramatic difference to the driving experience (aside from the whole transplant/manual conversion thing)

Biggest thrill is any time you are upwards of 6500rpm, or when you have the middle pedal pushed to the floor (I love my brakes!)

Most satisfying will be when I finally finish the car: ihopefully in the next couple of months... :thumbsup:

I love it: best car I've ever owned!

best thing would be rebuilding the gearbox to stage 2 . . .. negative point about that is no more overdrive when cruising in 4th, i.e dropping off 500rpm. and i drive for 3hours straight at 110kph fairly orften

and it drags the gears out longer and holds them before changin, but thats where manual gearing comes in to play ;)

+ for responsiveness and power holding

- for fuel consumption now :(

I'm pretty happy with all the mods I've done so far (and I'm currently in the process of fitting freshly rebuilt Nismo-badged Bilstein S-Tune suspension). A few that stand out are:

Master cylinder stopper - a simple, cheap, and very effective little piece of metal.

Shift kit - the OEM 1-2 shift was pretty damn lengthy to say the least...

IEBC - wake up that stock turbo!

Rear bar upgrade - much nicer in the corners, especially high-speed sweepers on the freeway.

The ECUTalk display is a really cool thing too, like a mini-Consult, with 'trip-computer' features that Nissan didn't fit to the car from the factory

    • That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.
    • They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!
    • I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.
    • Define "starting to fail". Wy not just rebuild them?
    • Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
