A bit of a pictorial wrap up of the first round of the Nulon Nationals at SMSP. Held on a wet skid pan, it's a Motorsport event that pits 9 forum based car clubs against each other in club level Motor

And here is some in car footage of the day, showing the wheel work required for such tight courses! Sorry for my fat melon being all over the pics

Stagea's paint looks bloody good Alex. Nice to see some more pics from the Stagea meet. Scrolled down for more, only to be greeted with the red crusty that fouls up this thread

Nice work guys, looks like she's going to be a sleeper engine bay.:ph34r: If you decide to get any of the exhaust ceramic coated down the track; let me know, I know a guy who's a perfectionist.:thumbsup:

Lol @ "Daleo magic" ; I thought you & the missus were looking the other way while I was shagging your manifold. Mmmm, cast irony...:3some:

looking forward to the finished article.

Well, did a little bit more on the car today...The ECU harness is now out of Medium/well done territory, heat wrapped and out of the way of the exhaust, as are whatever else could be moved from the back of the motor. Re-assembled the coolant piping, and trial fitted the intake which looks good. Bad news is that the Fabricator is in Fiji until next week, so that slows process down. In the mean time I'd like to sort out the rest of the intake, intercooler, and whatever bits and pieces are left over. Cannot fit exhaust - will need fabrication. Also try and dump my ECU for sending over to Abbey motorsports for Uprev.

Looks the goods. Have you got a power ballpark you're expecting when its done?

Is it going to be tuned on 98 or E85?

Its going to be dyno'd RWD, on 98 (there is no E85 within 40kms of me....) Power- we'll just have to see. 240rwkw would be nice... but who knows. Thats what a 350z that had the kit just got. Dynos can read so differently, its more about how it drives- and I suspect it will be a torque monster!

Well, Intercooler is mounted up, with the intake piping post intercooler OK. Quite neat. I'll get pics when I can.

Was fun buzzing a hole in the front member to fit the cooler.... whistling.gif

Custom parts should be sorted early next week, so hopefully it'll be on the road by mid next week.

Spotted 4 NM35's at Stagea Garage this morning! Good to see Spoolin back on the road!

Nice work mate, you must be very pleased!

What custom parts have to be done?

Just the turbo piping to the intercooler, and some work to the exhaust. Should be pretty straight forward.

That turbo to cooler pipe is a pain, especially getting around the driveshaft. Probably best to fabricate it from stainless for strength mate. Its coming along nicely.

How is the tuning side going?

Agree- Stainless is a good idea, I'll mention it to them.

Tuning, nothing much really. Enquiring if some tuners will use the Uprev software. I don't really want to dump the ECU until the car is back running. It needs good battery voltage to do so, otherwise the process won't run. Having a driveable car is a priority!

Well, today I dumped the ECU with the UPREV software and cable. 3 and a bit hours of waiting! Oh well. its done now. I have emailed it off to Abbey Motorsports in the UK. They are going to tell me if I can use the uprev software, which I am almost certain I can, and give me something able to be tuned and flashed!

Ever wondered how big an ECU was...?

The file I have is just 1mb of binary. For a very complex machine, the file is kinda small I thought....

In other news, I'm still waiting for this fabrication to be done....rant.gif

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
