Hey guys, getting my 1999 Manual Stagea in about 2 weeks, and have been told i have to go over the pits.

What are the queues like,

Which pits to avoid, any you recomend,

What are they going to pick on.

Any other info would be helpful

Ring up and make an appointment at Midland or Welshpool? (I think.. I've only made appointments at the Midland pits) dpi.wa.gov.au website is your friend :P

Haven't taken my Stag over but all the normal things apply.. tread/fluids/lights/leaks/seatbelts/etc.. just make sure everything is neat and tidy and don't try to hide anything.

Does it have any mods?

Welshpool and O'Connor work on a first in first served basis and open at 07:30....I rocked up at 06:00 and was out by 09:00 or 09:30, can't remember, was only one car in front of me.

All centres treat you about the same and they're all busy, especially busy with hail damaged cars flooding through.

Stop into a car was before you go, and give the engine bay a massive spray (its begging for one ...) :P

Get under the car and give the underside a good wipedown... make it look nice and clean. They really like that. Make sure all your hoses and lines are in good condition with no splits etc (they will find the tiniest split). I go to the Welshpool one and rock up at 6am too since you have to wait like 2 weeks if you wanna book an inspection at Warwick or something :P There's always another car there already lol and it gets BUSY

Oh and I went at like 4pm once and it was pretty empty, I was the last car to be inspected so sometime in the afternoon might be good too.

waiting on pictures, will be getting them today, aparently it has coilovers, exhaust pod filter and bov, dont know about bov but because my mate pulled it off one of the jap reports so yeah will see....

very excited, and yeah cant want to get the car after a month of waiting

If the coilovers aren't adjustable they should pass fine, make sure the exhaust isn't too loud and has a cat fitted, and make sure the pod filter is bracketed down. If the bov is atmo. venting, chuck a stock one on.

Post some pics when you get them :)

    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.

    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same. 
    • I have an elite 2500 running an adapter harness on an rb25de neo r34. I took the butterfly out and removed all that junk. But I also went Plus+t at the same time. The butterfly thing works in reverse to the boost solenoid on the Gtt if that makes sense
    • yeh they are 235/45/17 up front and 255/40/17 in the rears. I still didn't get my answer if i can fit a 18x9 up front. I want to get 4 of this and see if they will fit before committing as they didn't see an 18x8 as an option but there is a 18x9.5 also.   Enkei RS05-RR 18x9 35mm ET 5x114.3 75.0 Bore Matte Gunmetal Wheel
