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:

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

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

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.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.

      Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.

      Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!

      Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
