So there has been a slight knock over large bumps from the front of my car that wasn't happening a couple of weeks ago..... so I put it on a hoist to check it today and found this....................see something missing on the rhs? I guess when they changed the struts over for compliance someone didn't eat there wheeties prior to tightening it :domokun:

ffs.....the sphincter of the universe's.

Now you know why I don't trust people to work on my cars anymore!!!!

you might want to mention to the dealer what you found!

Yeah rang him as soon as I saw it, and sent photos. If I cant get a nut for it tonight I'll be ringing again and having a few very stern words

It was the demo car at musle car and I had to get it back to Nissan.....had ne etag so I took the long route.

Nearly went past isms house but I was a little tired after having a late night on sat after dad hit a wall in the r32. :(

confused.gif Sorry to hear that mate. Is he OK? Hope the cars OK too.

I got some Bog filler round here somewhere...wub.gif

well i finally commited to the swap yesterday!

to be honest, a few tears came down! and I already miss the stagea!(even if I did think it was a POS)

drove home in the s14 and its fkn amazing. the change from a wagon to a sports car is unbeleivably different.

Hopefully I'll get back into an M35 one day.

BTW, the new owner has already found the 3.8 stroker, and is planning on doing it. i just said good luck lol

hmm time for a name change.....

btw if I was looking for capacity I would be using the pathfinder 4l bottom end. I drove a 350z with that motor a few weeks ago and it was excellent

Who has some accurate production numbers of Stageas? C34 and M35 please.

I saw some on the interwebs long time ago, and can't find them now!

why you thinking that you might be in with the cool NM35 turbo crowd! :P

Or are you going to try and start a new group called the Lone Ranger PN35 turbo group!...maybe you shouldgoogle.gif to try and find friends! :P

U thinking of these figures or something different you saw?

Yes all Japanese new car registrations, and 09 was first year on sale for the Skyline crossover...

In context, the M35 registrations in Japan;

Year___2.5 Turbo___2.5 NA___3.0 NA____3.5 NA____Total

02_____6,118_____10,208___ 2,038________0_____18,364

03_____4,004_____ 6,679_____312_________0____10,996

04______656______6,502_____342_____1,005______8,505

05________0______5,149_______0_____1,354______6,503

06________0______3,028_______0______803______3,831

07________0______1,125_______0______309______1,434

08________0_________0_______0________2__________2

Sorry, no splits before 2001 but totals for all Stageas are;

01__13,631

00__16,021

99__20,456

98__25,344

97__48,313

96__18,006

yeh the s14.. im pretty happy man.

im gonna be jumping in a car that has had approx $70k of work done to it, and has receipts to prove..

completely rebuilt from the chassy up and engine rebuild and forged, less than 25,000 ago

Glad you went for something inconspicuous...

Glad you went for something inconspicuous...

yeh me too.

LOL....

defect time!

nah lol, wouldve been, ive put a standard airbox, and waiting for the Standard BOV tomorrow..

then its legal..

but f**k... i miss the stag!

This pining will only get greater.

i know lol, chances are I will sell in the next year for another stag. lol

the comfortability of the stag is seriously second to none! you seriously dont realise it, until its in fact gone...:wub::(

Haha... having come from an R31 and can remember what the ride was like, I certainly do realise how comfortable (and practical) my Stag is.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
