Hi all, iv had my "00" C34 now for 6 mths and loving it. Got it for a steal with very low Ks for a car of such an age. Have just recently joined the forum and have found it very interesting.. Can't wait to start turning it into the beast it has the capacity to be. Unfortunately with 2 little ones draining my pocket it's going to have to wait a while. I live in adelaide and had never even noticed them about before I purchased mine and now I see at least 2 a day (aside from the 2 in my driveway lol). They seem to be very popular.

I hope to make it on the next cruise and meet some of you in person.

Will post pix as soon as I figure out how from my phone.

Take it easy ;)

Thanks ;) needed to upgrade from the subi but didn't wanna go back to a 2wd. Was a toss up between the stag and a legnum. Although the legnum went like a shower of shit it was too small and not as well made. Seemed they skimped on body and interior to throw more money at a cracker of an engine. It just felt cheap and nasty. That aside, parts for the stag are a dime a dozen here too.

I believe she's pretty stock aside from the rims and stiff as a board suspension .

Do u have any clue how I upload pix from my iPhone or do I have to jump on the comp?

Iv only got one from the day I bought her home. She needs a bath today. Once she's clean I'll take some more.

As for an input, I know next to nothing bout these beasts aside from what I've read on here.

I actually joined coz I received an engine light last week and was searching for an answer. Turns out it was packs and plugs. We changed em fri night and she runs better than when I got her ;)

welcome to the forums miss stag, hopefull we'll see you on the next stagea cruise.

have you got series 1s or 2s stageas?

easiest way for pics is to upload onto your computer then upload them to a site like photobucket click here

then throw them into your post in your post using the img code

there is a post a pic of your stagea thread here

and a what have you done to your stagea lately thread here

:thumbsup:

Howdy big fella, thanx for the welcome. :)

We have x2 s2's in the pearl white (mine with the full dayz kit, the other halfs has a towbar so don't have the rear spoiler but he has the dual sunroofs). Seriously couldn't have picked a better car.

Than for the tips on uploading pix and where. I shall get onto it as soon as the comp stops cracking it's fit. I really hope I can make it on the next cruise. I'm very excited to meet some of the Adelaide stagea community and pick all your brains. Take it easy.

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
