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.

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
