The only time I notice the thump is when I'm dawdling in traffic; get a bit of harshness into second.

I actually much prefer what I have now, even my missus gets a bit of a grin when it squats & goes on a gearchange now.thumbsup.gif

I have bit of a harsh shift when its cold shifting but only into third....the rest of the time it's pretty good.

Have you checked your flux capacitor levels?

Oh shit i'm not in the V35 section atm! :P

Dear Jetwreck; I think my Flux Capacitorz is borked, if I givez you dolarz can you do a highflowz on it?thumbsup.gif

Seriously though; how do I get better performance from my F/C? Is it time for a high performance rewind?

Jetwreck can you help me with a shift kit for the c34 stagea? I'm in Adelaide, I would like a trans cooler installed also if you can quote me on both that would be great. Need you to supply and fit the parts please....

Thanks Peter. Here is my email [email protected]

mines pretty good havent had a problem yet im dissapointed in the reaction time on full throttle but cant do much about it definetly a great mod!

I have found the box shifts perfectly if the temps are normal, if its too cold it wont change into gear at full throttle and if its too hot its not happy either.

I was going to try and trick the gearbox temp sensors so it thinks everything is fine but I guess it may cause issues. Best bet is to put an inline thermostat so the box comes up to temp quickly (due to the radiator) then diverts the fluid through the trans cooler once its up to temp.

    • 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.
