*Black Stagea now becomes invisible* nice one Aaron.

lol you have no Idea. not one person looked at me driving to work today

congrats dude

now you can legally drive it :P

lol Thanks man!

I spent my first 2 of my 3 years without P's up :) the only time I actually put them up is when they changed the law to green p's.. (and sent me some free ones ;] )

never got asked once! ( I didn't have a Stag at this time though)

There is a good chance it is the rear of the passenger valve cover leaking, not the turbo. I guess you really want to remove it to check though, and highflow it while its out of course. :whistling:

LOL, shit so the engine needs to be out to fix that valve leak!?

can't afford highflow ATM...just bought the HDi IC, the exhaust, emanage, in a single week. Kinda feeling poor ATM.

And now I'm going to need new shocks. BC's are what? 1200? grrrrrrr

i reckon those shocks are the cause of that noise if its leaking. :)

U reckon?

The previous owner was adamant that it's the BOV. this is what he said:

"It definitely is the blow off valve because when i blocked it off, the farting was eliminated straight away.

Here's a video i took of the car and how it sounded with the blow off valve blocked off.

No farting what so ever:"

Engine shouldn't need to come out. If the turbo needs to come out, then it is probably easier to take out the engine, but also probably more time consuming.

If it is the valve cover, no way would you take the engine out to change the gasket.

Yeah, BC's are 1200-1300 plus shipping from JustJap... or there is a second-hand set of Nismo S-Tune floating around NSW :ph34r:

I cant view vids.

maybe it is a BOV or IC piping. maybe you'll fix it by changing to the HDI like scotty said!

Well now that my position at work has been made redundant (after 11 years service), I've got all the time in the world to work on the Stagea. I attacking all those 'little' things (knocks/rattles) that have been annoying me for a while. Getting an exhaust hanger rewelded today to give a bit more clearance to the tow bar; got new wheel studs to replace the dodgy/stripped ones I have; putting in my order today for larger injectors and a 3076. :D

This weekend I'm fitting a new timing belt and pulleys; along with relocating my oil temp, water temp, a/f, and boost gauges. Also shopping for new slotted rotors front and rear!

So much to do ... so much time to do it :P

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • 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 🍻
