Hi every one, first time post, long time lurker.....

I'm from N.Z and have had our Stagea about 4 months.

2001 RB25de, 25x rear wheel drive, non turbo, standard except that the last owner changed her over to wasted spark.

fully serviced and well looked after

Haven't had any problems as yet, except as i was coming up the Bombay hills the other night the engine warning light came on for a minute, it when off again before i stopped to have a look, oil water plugs....

Now in the light of day i have had another good look over.

all i can find is that the two plugs under the power steering fluid reservoir look as though they have been getting hot.

i pulled one apart and its full of white goo. I'm assuming that it was white electrical grease. gave it a good clean with contact cleaner.

Just wont to know what these two plugs are for?

I would post pics but er.... have to figure that one out later....

They are two pugs attached to the passenger side fount guard in the engine bay under the power steering reservoir?

any help appreciated.

O.K so an over reaction to the plugs being melted.

They are just REALLY covered in baked on kack!

Given them a really good clean and put them back together.

Where the Kack has come from, i don't know, as the rest of the engine and bay it is spotless.

I will have to go out and get some water proof electrical grade grease. Any body have any preferences?

And of course, still wont to know what these two plugs are going to,

The third plug on that piece of loom, goes to what looks like a o2 seser on the exhaust.

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
