picked my new Fujitsubo 3 inch rear muffler to go with the 3 inch system that i got from RBD2.

gave the stagea a service and one of the apprentices pointed out that my rims are actually Enkeis.

makes me sad they are covered in mad gutter rash, stupid japanese people that can't drive!

Had all bump stops and shock mount bushes etc replaced or rebuilt over the last few weeks: it's finally finished!! Although I have yet to take it for a spin myself, my mech says it's massively improved (and that's after the Bilsteins were rebuilt)... Looking forward to taking it out for a spin later in the week... :)

Just won a Nismo ECU for my M35 :laugh:

Paid a pretty penny for it, but i want to get the ball rolling with this car. more mods to come soon...........

also got a nice CF wing for the tailgate!!

Fitted my new turbo to my car. Only a slight high flow but a great improvement in power over the stock turbo and not too much lag. (turbo is Sierra stage 1)

A happy man. :worship:

Ps. Thanks Craig for your help and next time someone says turbo replacement and M35, it is motor out of the car time.

my mate said to not call him when i need to replace my turbo :S

.. he knows its a bastard engine out job.. just like our cousin 300zx's if you read other threads everything that concerns a zx usually has "engine out" 50 times repeated in the thread :)

damn i suppose that was the one on import monster for about 1150-1200$ i was looking at.

well least someone from here got it :)

how much did you secure it for in the end ?

Yes that was me, win price was $1125 :worship: + shipping + charges. it was a last minute decision, if i knew someone else was after it i wouldnt have bid on it. sorry for that!

So it will be around $1500 landed. A decent price IMO with the emanage ultimate i already have, ill have full tuning capabilities.

ANDY: do you still have a spare turbo for rebuild??

Edited by zei20l

i probably could have. but i like the emanage, had one in my S15 before. and im also a big fan of nismo products. HKS........ not as big of a fan. Not sure why.

also, i wouldnt have to go to melbourne for a tune if i went f-con lol

i will be buying an HKC CAMP 2 however! finally use one of those inputs to the screen lol

ahha gayest name ever!! lol no pun intended

yeah it will work well due to the throttle restriction removal. thats all i want it for.

hmm craigs engine 'mishap'. ill limit my boost to stock levels i think lol

im also hoping my transmission will hold up for another 12 months. 6 at least.

That's an expensive throttle restriction removal and speed cut remover you just bought yourself... :worship:

For anyone else with a highflow, Zebra is selling an Emanage Ultimate cheap, $450...

All good mate , i wasnt bidding on it , couldnt afford it atm :)

Iain thats actually quite good , because i was going to get that exact same ecu the first time it was auctioned and no one bought it .. for $1250 without + shipping + charges. so you ended up knocking off $125 of the original auction price.

so all in all you did ok.

who can tune the fcon v though .. without being a test dummy and spending 2k on a tune anyway for the vq?

cause thats definately within budget.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
