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 :(

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
