I guess I'm not just talking about money more like performance gains for $ and hours spent:) can't even see the turbo let alone get to it :( don't get me wrong i have no doubt that ill end up going full house on it ( normally cant help my self) but I'd have to have a goal I'm mind over 300.( just having a whinge:) b4 i guess) but b4 I even consider that I've got the c34s new power goals to achieve . So ill just let the misses drive the m35 and remove temptation! Then again she wants more out of it already as well, bloody addictive stagea's

Well bang for buck is my creed.The new one has a done motor.Will go RB30/25 same as No1 son is doing for the S13 Drifta. He can do the hard yards and I can stroll along behind getting the clues.

And, I am definately addicted. Might have to get onto a Methanol Program LOL

Thats the one. The 4bidn1. Actually I got a Classics mate of mine to bid. He has a program that automatically makes a bid 5 secs before close.I am too effin old to grasp all the IT shifties.

Lol, the other day, I was trying trying to work out what I'd replace the Stagea with, when the time came;

I reckon it would end up being another one...

I'm pretty keen on an 86 GTS, or golf R32/GTI/R, Polo GTI, or 2nd hand M3/335Ci or a 370GT... to sum things up.. I have no idea

Not really sure where my motivation to get rid of it came from, its not the greatest for commuting (fuel), not that all of the others above are any better. Also I struggle to think of more than 2 or 3 times since owning it (so once a year) where I have actually needed the space it has on offer. That said still love it, and will/would be sad when/if it sells haha 0 interest in almost a month on the market :(

If anyone is interested or knows some one that is.. http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/newcastle-west/cars-vans-utes/2002-nissan-stagea-m35-250t-rsfour/1032449513

Transgo installed DRW Automatics in Adelaide kitted out many a Dinosaur mobile got the knod for the Job.

Guess I echo the many others who say was a worthwhile investment.

Thanks Scott Gold Label Nulon Trans fluid was a good choice according to Dave at the workshop.

Well let's see...on Thursday I inspected the bolt that had pulled through the rear left mud guard moulding after she-who-controls-the-marital-vajayjay back it into the garden edging, and yesterday I inspected the damage on the right rear door after my 5yo daughter threw open the left rear door of the Commodore with nary a care in the world.

Today I'm coming to terms with the fact that It's Started - that long, inexorable slide that a vehicle goes through from pristine fresh import to pile o' crap when it is subjected to the rigours of family life.

Sigh.

An emanage ultimate with universal loom

Who'd you get to install and tune that? Keen to hear about someone in SA with some hands on experience.

I'm finally getting access to a hoist and workshop this week and should get my dramas sorted out - I'm wanting to get an EMU install finally done soon after!

    • G'day Rob.  Have you sold your 370GT?  I have just started looking.
    • Could you have not cut off the OEM flange, weld on a larger flange for DBW?
    • Maybe of interest, a little while ago I spoke to one of the guys from Rajab Racing Developments and he hinted to me they could be developing a new cast exhaust manifold. Incidentally, they have already made one for the barra and it looks functional 
    • So Bathurst coming up so really need to get this new ECU in. I regret going to flex fuel and all the headaches associated with DBW with cruise etc....a miss the simplicity of Power Fc   I make enough power that I should have just gone back to 98 but...anyway Turns out with the std inlet I cant really go any bigger than 60mm DBW so wasnt able to play with that aspect of the update.  
    • We're bringing Pizzas back!! Pizza Runs, to be specific... We had a practice Pizza Run a while ago, and everyone has been screaming for a proper one... So you've asked, and now we're delivering! Since your tastebuds are tingling, feast your eyes on the event details: Date: Saturday 27th July 2024 Meet Location: Parking Lot - 1 Parkview Dr, Sydney Olympic Park Meet Time: Meet at 5.30pm for a 6.00pm departure Destination: Talotta's Pizzeria, 1-3 Bridges St, Kurnell Map: https://tinyurl.com/saunsw-talottas  We'll meet at the carpark on the corner of Parkview Drive and Australia Avenue in Sydney Olympic Park. When we leave the parking lot, we'll head down Australia Ave, and turn right onto Homebush Bay Drive at the large roundabout near DFO. As soon as we turn onto Homebush Bay Drive, we will be turning left onto the M4 to drive through the new M4/M8 tunnel! Everyone loves a bit of RB action through a tunnel.... We'll exit the tunnel at the Gardener's Road exit, and turn onto Princes Highway, where we'll follow it onto Rocky Point Road and then onto Taren Point Road. Once we reach Miranda, we'll turn left onto Captain Cook Dr, where we'll continue on straight until we reach Talotta's Pizzeria for some pizza goodness!!! There is a small carpark at the destination. Limited spaces are available, but there will be plenty of street parking in front of Talotta's There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost. If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior! This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our track days. This is an official SAUNSW event and will be run under a Motorsport Australia permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU:NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehaviour will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave. Thanks guys and hope to see you there!
