here what i have found

Midland towbars will get a towbar 1000kg from the eastern states and charge $795 fitted ....1 week wait and fitting 2-3 hours

rockingham towbars will make you a 1200kg towbar for $850 or a hayman (square tube type for $1050...needs car for 2-3 days

Someone told me that haymen reece make a 1600kg towbar but i rang them and these have never heard of such a car :(

Hey Mazzas,

Yeah mate, same guy on PSB :)

Was into cars way before I found bikes but now share the passion of both types of racing. I actually bought the Stag so I can pack all my track days gear into it and trailer the race bike around and sleep in the back if necessary. The Stag is much nicer than any ute in the same price range plus I already know how to modify work on them.

i am rsvpaul i went for a few rides with you until i had a stack on th aprilia

i will be looking at modifying this one alittle soon just got to remember its actually my mrs car.

I drove it back from adelaide last week and there is plenty ive room to sleep in her :)

Well hope ur rough idle is not the same as what mine has.

I have had a slight misfire and rough start in the morning for about 8 months.

In the last 3 weeks the misfire got worse and it started to idled rough at the lights. So I tried another set of coilpacks with no result

Only today I removed the spark plug from cylinder 6 only to find that it was full of coolant :-(

Now having to change the head gasket and hoping that is all thst it is

Haven't posted in a long time, but very desperate here. Need a set of stock wheels with reasonable tyres, or a pair of wheels with decent 225/40/R18 wheels ASAP close to Bassendean. One of my rears just started to delaminate, and the other one is very close to it.

    • 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.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
