without tune its costs massive on fuel

the way to describe the turbo whine is $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$!

i have a tiptrinic and i find it likes to shift to 4th and just slip winding boost to 5psi under slow or slight uphill applications, hoding gear in 2nd or 3rd sees at the same revs a locked trans and 10 - 20 inches of Hg - no boost

invest in an exhaust to hear your motor (not rediculously loud) and a boost guage because boost = cash

still tiptronic is fairly quick and easy to use, normally although sluggish responds quickly and shifts without jolts etc.

i'm looking to get a nistune but i see no point w/o electronic boost, dump, front mount, cold air, fuel pump until then its rather pointless as you cant milk the gains as much

but the stagea does not have a fuel economy figure - it has a fuel CONSUMPTION!

still a great car and one of the nicest things to drive, tows brilliantly, safe as, sounds fansastic with exhaust, heaps of room

even in stock trim its brilliant

ahh i was wondering what that extra wear was from....thanks carl :P

Thats why Commonwhore drivers, when they don't have passengers, place their upper torso over the centre console ... to even the weight distribution, so their fuel lasts longer and tyres last longer for those one peggers. :D

Hey i have had my stagea for over a year now. I have an auto, no mods and i use it as my daily drive from aldinga to glenelg and i get 520 to a tank. When i was driving from aldinga to the hub every day i was getting 550-570. I don't drive it hard but i still have a bit of fun. I love my stagea and i have owned a 33 before but totally wouldn't go back. I do have some rust under my mirrors but that is about it.

i never wanted something that had been modified.. as for price it has to be the cleanest low km stagea i've looked at in adleaide for that price. and in the flesh it is immaculate.. buying another modified car didn't interest me, been down that road before and your basically driving some body elses creation. all mods i want to do myself that way it's all mine.

That is a good price for a tidy stag. Right priced :)

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
