Yeah we have a tuners license and I have a mate that builds ECU's and wiring looms for a living, he solders the boards in for a nominal fee :)

Like I said above, if a bunch of you want a board I will organise a groupbuy and should be able to get the price down a little depending on volume. Whoever is interested, shoot me a PM.

Nice power!

hi guys...just swapped my r33 gtst for a silver 97' RS4 on CR-Kai's from a bloke named Jason-he mentioned he knows a few people in the stagea scene so i thought id say hi and am looking forward to poking around in this section a bit more, especially since i know diddly squat bout stags...flicked the r33 as my little brood is growing and it really was a no-brainer as to choosing a better family banger than this.-cheers.

Firstly Welcome to the crowd! Secondly Jason was gonna go manual and sell me his Auto interior console lol guess not anymore haha. Nice car to btw

well, all i can say about jason is that he loves to talk-lol real nice guy though...and youre right mate-he was kind enough to throw in the manual centre console he imported from japan for free-(he was quite particular on how hard they are to find too)... so yeah, when i manage to scrape together the cash to buy a r33 zilla box-(sounds very daunting)-ill probably just flick my auto one over to ya

jeez-let me know when you stumble across one that cheap again mate...anyways i was reading chuckies initial post on shockies which then had me thinking that for my own 1st mod on the RS4 id like to go the way of coil-overs. but then i noticed him mentioning "eye" and "fork" type suspension. So looking online @ shops selling them, would i be correct in choosing this type?--- http://www.justjap.com/store/product.php?productid=18617&cat=422&page=8

- ta.

nah mate-apparently none of the S1 RS4's came out in a manual option... dont quote me on that though-its only what ive heard. which i think is the reason why jason was re-iterrating to me how hard it was for him to find a manual centre console from japan for it...will be loking @ a manual conversion further down the track though since i have the console part sorted already.

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
