What Have You Done To Your Stagea Lately?

Hi Zach,

That's "interesting"...running different width wheels...have you had any issues with respect to the Attessa?

No issues after 6 months although I was a little concerned at first. Keeping wheel alignment and balance in check probably helps too.

I still have the urge to go 10" all round with 255, that'd sit noice ;)

Thanks Dale and KiwiRS4T.

Dale yeah I got the lines made up at Pritek.

Brick I bought all the parts separately and yeah the sandwich plate is a Mocal thermostatic one.

Didn't even think about an airlock issue I'll have a look how much play I have with the lines to try mount on top of the Reo bar. The lines are quite stiff though as they are steel braided inside and fittings are fixed in there orientation. Having to buy new lines to run in a different mounting spot will suck but I'll take a shit at it.

Why not just flip the cooler and make up some basic brackets to support the cooler?

If it were mine, I would make up two long C shaped brackets which would support each side mounting tab of the cooler and allow you to screw it onto the top of the reo.

Nice and sturdy :)

I would do that but as mentioned it the line are fixed in there orientation meaning that I can't rotate the end fittings so leaves me with limited fitting locations. It is mounted nice and sturdy in its current location just means I'll have to unmount it and flip in every oil change to make sure there is no airlock

That's exactly why I make my own lines to suit. The black Kevlar lines are the best I have found.

Who is game to run the new Hypergear turbo on their M35? Should make over 300awkw on petrol with the right supporting mods.

38mm wastegate and massive turbine flow capability with billet compressor. Should get your whale moving along nicely. :)

$1250, same price as the SS2 apparently. Should be equivalent to a GTX3071 internal gate Garrett setup in terms of response he tells me.

I have this one for sale, so I can do change over for your blown turbo, or sell it outright for a little more.

How is the GTX3071 in terms of response (if you know off the top of your head without me having to do a simple search) :whistling:

I am looking into a few other things at present but more power may indeed be on the cards later this year (maybe)

My turbo isn't blown and I don't see blowing any time soon. But the SS1 just doesn't have the go I am after. Not in any rush to swap it over right now but this will probably be what I do swap it to when I am ready. 300 plus on 98 makes me get the fizzles down stairs haha

The SS2 comes on hard well under 3k once tuned, this may be around 3500, but no-one has run one up as yet. it's all an unknown. It should outdo my external setup given the numbers he is quoting me, with better response. Mine doesn't hit hard till 3700-3800 but I run the .82 rear not a .63 stocker.

I run a ss2 now, as you know, with emanage and only one initial tune and it certainly doesn't come on hard well before 3000rpm. Sure it's not far off but still...

I am starting to think i need to bin the ECU and go stand alone or look to other tuners to have a crack with it.

I will look into it once i have finished my current projects

commitment mate... that's why!! :P... after all, I read in an old manual conversion thread you had a 350z 6 speed and other bits and yet your M35 is still auto :yucky:

Before I decide to screw more power into my M35 I would be doing the manual job first (if only it wasn't such a unknown exercise)

I have a 300kw evo now that's sucking up all my hard earned. :P

You are welcome to buy the box and Nismo twin plate off me. haha.

What price are you looking for scott ?

Outright? Add $400 and I will send it over Josh. You know you want it... ;)

Valid reason I guess.

I'll be in touch re: the box/clutch :P

Hi Scott,

What would "happen" if I had you to the swapover and install this without a tune? Or is it mandatory that this requires a tune to get it up and running

How long has stao had this out? I just got my billet high flow 2 weeks ago off him but he never mentioned it was new? It looks to be the same unless he's changed something I can't see in the pic....

    • 215/45/18 tyres are probably a little on the low side compared to the factory tyre, it should be closer to a 245/45/19, which will get you about an extra 11mm of height, and should make you speedo read a bit closer to reality. 245/45/19s will be a bit too far the other way and you risk a speeding ticket as your speedo might read slower than your actual speed.  245/40/19s would be correct if you are going to 19in rims, they will give you a similar total diameter to the 245/45/18 tyres.  
    • That's something I forgot to put in my list. The aggressive anti-squat in R32 is a f**king menace. I still need to decide if I'm going to drag the subframe out of my car and weld in the GKTech corrector kit. The main reason to dither is the need to switch to spherical joints in the lower arm to account for the twist induced in the rear pivot caused by lowering the front pivot. And yes...we do put better subframes in R32s, and I wish I'd gotten an S14 one instead of an A31 when I did the "take off and nuke it from orbit" HICAS delete all those years ago.
    • I have been looking at some setting on the alarms for the Q60 and what buttons do and so and also been looking for details on the alarm in my V37 which is a standard issue with the car. settings like window roll up and a few others seem to not work at all. i cant seem to find exact info on V37 alarms so Q60 is all i can really go off i have not tried 400Z alarm settings or info yet so that will be next. any one got like a sheet of info on the alarm system in the V37 as all my documents are in japanese but i thought the system would basically be like standard through similar models? 
    • I had a fuel smell coming from the drivers rear and pulled the tank out to inspect where it was coming from, turns out the breather hose from the tank to the filler neck was perished. I’m going to Japan next week and I’ll grab it while I’m there  pulled the oil tank apart and started cleaning this crap out of it, some brake cleaner and rags got it looking new again 
    • Hmm. Was quite a few years ago now. I think I bought from a crowd in the US called CDT Audio. The speaker is the HD-6. The HD-6CF would have been the better option (based on T-S parameters), but they were discontinued in 4 ohm at that point in time. The HD-6 is a better driver in almost every other way (than the CF) - just not as good in IB. They still do the HD-6. They might even have a more suitable (for IB) option here.https://www.cdtaudio.com/cdtnew22/products/components/woofers/midwoofers/midwoofers.htm But, here's the rub. I was working in the US a lot back then, so I got them delivered to my US office and then just brought them back to OZ myself. I don't know if they will ship to OZ, and it probably wouldn't be great cost-wise anyway. As to results. They're driven direct off the rear channels of my headunit, because the headunit can be setup to run the rears as subs. So, not a lot of power being fed there. Nevertheless, there's no shortage of volume - the sub levels don't need or want to be boosted at all. The bass is definitely not what you would call "tight". It is definitely a bit delayed compared to a proper sub. But, with the great front soundstage and really good 6.5" woofers in the front doors, I'm getting most of the bass detail from the front and the rear is really only to extend the bottom end a bit. Works for what I'm doing. I mean - until recently you couldn't really hold a conversation in my car due to the fuel pump, and for many years I had tyres so noisy (Kumho KU36 at <50 tread depth) that I had to drive with earplugs anyway!
