So its finally gone, swapping it for a 4wd. Now before you all bag me its something ive wanted to do for a while, bought myself a cheap jackaroo a while ago and have enjoyed it so much i wanted something newer and better and this deal came through i couldn't refuse it. My house still isnt finished which i was going to use the funds for but the bank might be helping there.

Its been fun owning the stagea, there such an awesome and underated car, i had alot of problems at first but once all sorted the car hasnt let me down, performance and practicality in the best way, which i feel isn't matched anywhere else.

One day i might find myself back in one.

Will still be coming back to this section as i have made some good friends in here!

Go the Stagea's!

I am amazed at your fortitude. You had such bad luck with the original car and did a mammoth job building the new one. You would be entitled to have a poor opinion of Stageas so I am glad to hear you would consider another in the future. Good luck with whatever you are driving - you deserve a break from car troubles!

Brenden just rang me, He cant go through with the swap :cool:

Not his fault, his parents arnt to keen on him getting a fast car, which is fair enough, the folks are the last people you want to upset.

So its back on the market...

    • Order for the 2025 model R35 GT-R were accepted from 3rd March and 26th August the last order rolled off the production line at the Tochigi plant. Concerning the R35 GT-R replacement, current Nissan CEO Ivan Espinosa said "Nothing has been decided about the GT-R at this time, but we are well aware that everyone is waiting. The GT-R will evolve and reappear in the future. Please be patient until that day comes." Nissan has a lot of issues with management and finances so take Espinosa's words with a big grain of salt. From what discussions I've had and read about here in Japan, not a lot of people are confident about Nissan's future, let alone the next GT-R. 
    • Thanks. We getting some parts along too so he will be solving the speed issue like next week so i will let you know what he came up with.   
    • 21 is explicitly the coils detected as the issue. Is it guaranteed the actual issue? No. Just the ECU thinks it is. When you say rattling, describe it better, get an audio clip as best you can if possible.
    • Yea got me coppers. Bad news is I just put them in and the car still has the light and shakes. I also noticed I hear like rattling coming from the exhaust piping right under me. Does 21 also have a possibility of being O2 sensors?   So, coil packs are good, the harness is good, the MAF is working, and obviously the spark plugs just replaced and working.
    • Make sure you drop the GTT base tune back in, and set your injectors again, this will remove anything playing up with it you may have removed. Possibly lean there as it's normally a fast transient going THROUGH atmospheric pressure, and a turbo motor would then quickly go richer as boost builds. The only worry you MIGHT have is ignition timing, as the DE is higher compression than the DET from memory. But again, you're not in boost, so the DE motor will be a lot more forgiving at atmospheric.   Get Murray, Kinkstahs, and Johnny's input on tuning haltechs, those guys have played with tuning enough in the past to be able to help now you're past the trouble shooting stage of the MAP issue
