Suspension and exterior

  • brand new tyres (hardly driven on)
  • factory green metallic paint in vgc
  • also comes with 16inch 5spokes (factory type wheel) with unroadworthy tyres
  • Also i have rs4stg plate for nsw buyers if interested

since owning the car i have spent many thousand of dollars to get it where i am happy with it, altho there is still a few minor problems such as -

  • needs new exhaust manifold gasket (i have a brand new one ready to be put on)
  • a/c need gas
  • need new dump pipe flange (which i will be replacing as soon as i put the new manifold gasket on)

the stagea is currently running 14psi (no wear near its potential) so after the new dump pipe and gasket goes on i will be getting it tuned, the workshop beleives it will make approx 400hp at all 4s

Previously before the plenum, fuel system, and new turbo was fitted the stagea made 260kw at all 4s on 18psi... i have tryed to list everything but there could be some things i may have missed out on

i want $19,000 as it sits, which is only a fraction of what it owes/cost me and seems more than reasonable considering the price of other stageas i have seen... considering how good of condition it is in being manual and all the extras... i maybe able to remove parts to lower the price if required (such as rims, headunit, boost controller etc)

Im very open to swap offers looking at everything really just wanting a change, can also be view on boostcruising and will be on car sales shortly

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
