LOL...you guys have not only buried me but have written my Will as well.

EVO goes this Frid.........picked up a taxi with a big snail on it a couple of days ago.

Username "Jet-Turbo" (aka Jet-Snot) and I are starting a new trend on these forums...........it's called "Boats with HP"........bit like Heslo's 33 :teehee:.............well, the one he used to have :whistling:

hahaha yeh we will fly the flag into international waters :rolleyes:

come stomp around on the s.a section in www. i got a big barge.com :rofl2:

lol it seems I have a Stagea owner customer (not sure who it was) who decided to have a run with a Commodore on the weekend in front of an unmarked cop car.

When he was pulled over, he tried to tell the officer that the boost controller and turbo timer were in it when it was complied and imported from Japan.

Whoever it was, next time you try it on, perhaps pick an officer that doesn't already know me before you start fibbing...the Iron Chef stickers on your car saved your arse this time, but they won't next time...

Anyone know where I can get some Iron Chef stickers? .. jk

considering selling my stagea for a lowball price of around 10k.

bought 6yrs ago for 18k, had over 30k in modifications over the years (parts/labour/tune/servicing)

piston #5 is shagged tho, requires new rings, before ringland went walkabouts was putting out 230awkw tuned to 1bar, had seen 250rwkw at 18psi on the dyno.

been dyno'd numerious times, and out to the track a handful of times (last time out lost compression to piston#5)

if you know anyone after a 300rwkw-potential project car let me know, or pm me for my details - would simply require new rings to be back on road with 250kw, or larger injectors and forged pistons for the 300kw mark. stagea is currently at a crash repairer having all panels looked at, was graffitied friday night. Potentially a complete respray, not sure tho atm. Will know more regarding the paintjob over the next few days I guess.

well car hopefully has been rid of its teething issues and Willall can get a tune happening in the next few days. Big thanks to them

:laugh: Yeah definitely a few gremlins. Hopefully all is well now. Pity the battery died before we saw the CAS was disconnected :(

    • 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.
