can get a remap for 200kw + more torques + faster dsg, while under warranty thats probably all ill do.

ive really wanted a new(ish) car for a long time. ended up with an actual new car. it has everything, except electric seats which is really weird

WTF dude?

So now that you sell your Stagea, you don't understand torque measurements?

Can't have more torques. Your engine has torque and the measurement of this torque is in nm, lbs/ft etc. geek.gif

Sound as silly a Clarkson when he talks about "torques".

On an unrelated note, I wonder if Craig will crack 300 powers when his car is finished...

So, just bought the replacement for the stagea. Dont laugh!

Got it brand new, collect Friday.

147KW petrol with DSG. Mines a sedan, not a wagon shown in this pic. Same colour!

Does Dsg chip second?

I replaced my Stagea with a 130i. Black. Msport. 195kw.

Needs an LSD.

Euro ftw!

i dont know, i pick it up in 2 hours. give me a few weeks to bed the motor in and ill let you know!

im gonna say no, its very smooth with its gear changes, you barely even notice it at low speed!

Use a good quality masking tape and take your time putting it up :)

Cheap masking tape can either leave sticky residue or come apart when removing leading to unnecessary anger.

Nice avatar change by the way. Do love (and will miss) those Nismo tips thumbsup.gif

Also, if you're masking against a colour; paint the edge of the tape with the colour that is underneath the masking tape. This seals the edge of the tape stopping the new colur bleeding under the tape and gives you a razor sharp edge.

I f**king hate painting.

    • Probably speedometer itself if the odometer is ticking. If the needle is stuck from a bit of grease or something that can cause it to stay at 0. Or a cracked solder joint in the speedometer can do it too.
    • Thanks Fella’s   to take this off topic and to elaborate a bit more. I have an rb25/30 going into a r32 GTST.. expected to make around 600-700hp. Would you?   A) R34 GTT box   B) CD00#?  I’ve seen a few posts about the CD swap and sounds fairly involved with making it fit etc but if it’s worth the work then I’ll go that way
    • Lower at the hubs. Funny I forgot to mention that part. Do this pull here I turned the camera off too soon but the graph shows a drop at the top and that was because the pipe from the turbo blew off. The tuner said we could’ve made possibly another 15 whp. He also added if I switched to ethanol we could up the boost some more as well. I was comfortable capping it at the most of 20 pounds. Turns out the turbo pipe just needed a new worm clamp. Got home replaced that then did a third gear pull from 3k to 7200 rpm and the power was great to the top. I just got an ecu mounting bracket from IEE that I need to try and get everything to fit well. It’s a PITA to get the harness and ecu fit properly behind that kick plate 
    • He means "as opposed to mechanical cable drive". Older cars (R32 for ex.) had cable drive. Later cars with essentially the same gearbox, ie R34 GT (NA RB25) used essentially the same box as the R32 GTSt, but instead of a cable drive, had an electronic speed sender plugged into the same hole in the box, running from the same little gear that would have run the cable. Some of the shittier later cars use a speed sender on the nose of the diff, or the ABS sensors.
    • Lower than engine, or lower than it should at the hubs? Either way, that is a nice power figure and I'm not surprised you say it rips now. What stopped you from turning it up any more? Injectors? Or did it just stop responding to boost?
