What Have You Done To Your Stagea Lately?

[joshm35]

Straight swap? Nice butt and rib hugging?

pretty much straight swap. Hugs the body perfect. Sits alot lower then stock seats but works for me as im 6ft. I had to use my oem seat belt retainers as the 350z ones wouldnt secure the seat belt. Driverside was 100% plug and play but the passenger side for some reason one of the plugs were removed and the inside front bolt hole was out so needed some massaging.

Nice. Good job with that. Guessing the plugs are the seat sensors for the airbags

[joshm35]

Yeah. Trying to source another one.

Fitted shocks to front so is same ride height as rear. Looks so much better.

Fitted rear white line sway bar with whiteline bushes and stock links. Find it very squeeky. Id say it may be the links causing it. I greased them up again and it went away for a while but is now back really bad. Any ideas?

Piss the links off & get a new set if they're creaking; they should be silent.

If it's the "D" bushes, replace them with either Whiteline or Nolathane PTFE lined versions; these require no lubrication for their lifetime.

They are whiteline bushes thats where i was shocked at the noise. Ill replace the links with whiteline adjustables and see if the massive creaking stops. You would have possibly heard it the other day when i dropped around

I did mate, if they were the PTFE impregnated ones; they wouldn't be doing that though.

Let me know if you want me to get you a set of links; I still get good pricing...

Whilst my M35 is on the hoist might as well replace things that need it...

Therefore upon closer inspection the radiator will be replaced... won't have to worry about the auto transcooler getting in the way with the new one

Over the weekend i installed the Fujitsubo Legalis R Exhaust. Huge difference in comparison as you can see. The muffler that was on the car was bi modal, controlled via a switch in the dash, not sure if its a factory option but maybe someone here would know.

I havent had a chance to hear the new exhaust as i did the rocker cover gasket at the same time and after doing that the Stag had developed a missfire, Code P1320 - Ignition Signal. Need to fix this before i can hear it 100%

You can see the adjustable valve, the motor is in the back of the car near the standard TV receiver.

Sounds like a coil isn't plugged in properly Luis.

[Reaperblitz]

Is the old exhaust you pulled off branded? Or do they come factory option that way? Guess that's the switch under the dash then right?

[DrLui]

Ill have another look tonight to see if i can find a brand on it. And yes there is a switch down the right that says sport which changed the exhaust note

Looks like the Skyline coupe mid section, repacing the usual massive mid box, and the Nismo accessory sound control exhaust... I had one sitting in my shed, as I never quite got around to installing the motor and wiring before i sold the car..

But I did have the coupe mid section.. Well worth the $120 and 30 minutes fitting...

Its not a nismo part, its branded a Nissan Sports Exhaust

[DrLui]

The muffler is a Nissan Calsonic

correct. i have seen the dash switcher once in Yahoo JP auction, it is Nissan OEM part.

[nickcorr]

I stand corrected... yes Nissan, not Nismo.

Had the airbag light always on and the A?T check light came on a few times too.

Did the sequence with the key to get rid of airbag light, and added trans oil (matic J).

No more lights showing up

Just have to look up that rear right noise next and it will be all good (will make sure I check the handbrake cable).
