Do you still have your standard Stagea seats? Build/acquire a frame to put around it and that would make a pretty sweet set up IMO. :P

I do, Mr Cass. Are you handy with a welder?

Also, I need somewhere to store it.

I have a welder at home, but I'm am pretty shithouse at welding...

However... working in a factory with MIG and TIG welders as well as people that are paid to use them may have its benefits :P

mmmm GT5 :) its slowly taking over my time I spend on blackops :D

aghhhh 2 new games = no "out of living room" life atm >.<

still haven't seen a stag yet.. just got 250k from special events.. gonna have to spend it on a Ferrari :)

good game = fun.

havent worked out how to put different tyres on front/back

going to need to setup a wheel at some stage, controller stick is too hard for some of the special stage events

^^ just before u start the race there is an options tab there u change to different tyres front and back there pending ur car has them..

Stag definatly need hard on the back to stop the understeer

I have googled the stigs lap times and been running cars round the top gear track to compare..

Yea I have a 260rs on GT5 with just over 450hp drive pretty well but as soon as you take traction control and stability control off it can be a bit of a handfull out of the corners when you plant your foot

just get one of these.....there cheap.....and then remount a decent seat to it.....works a treat!

If I can find something similar to that which can also be folded up for storage, then that would be awesome. I'm pretty sure there are some out there that do, it's just a matter of looking for and finding one.

soft :down:

anyone who uses traction and/or stability control isnt really driving the car.

tell me how good assasins creed is mate, im getting it for xmas

Iain, started playing it today, it's pretty damned good! Some new features here and there, but I'm still in the early stages.

Picked up a black 260RS the other night, haven't driven it yet.

Likewise, then took it for an oil change and a quick spin.

Man, what a slug... sorta expected when compared to the Tommy Kaira ZZ-2 though :P

Finnally got my car, a black 260RS. Havent had time to drive it yet. Looking forward to having some fun playing with the torque controller thingy and sending the power to the rear after fully working it!!

I'm slowly getting thru GT5 when i get spare time.

A-spec beginner and amatuer races all done, half way thru professional

B-spec beginner races all done

I finally got a stagea in used cars, and painted it Bayside blue FTW! now it matches my R34GTR Vspec with 800hp

Sucks that you can't change wheels on a non-premium car though :down:

I really hope they fix that eventually, its stupid. And they need more aero parts on a lot of the cars too. I dont want it to turn into Need For Speed type crap, but some more options would be nice.

    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
