It pulls then doesn't then it takes off again, like a massive hesitation. I want to try to send the tube I just don't know how nistune wirks

Do you know how to connect your laptop to the ECU via the CONSULT port? Do that, then go to file in NIStune and open your appropriate address file for the Stagea. Then siwtch the car onto IGN, and click the "CONSULT" button at the top right of the screen. Click ok to the dialog box that comes up. Once you've done that, there is a button at the top of the screen that has two arrows on it, from memory one is blue and the other is red. Click on that, then click on the button that says something like "Read data from ECU". The other one will say something about writing data to the ecu, don't click that one. Then go to file again and save the image file somewhere so you can send it to Jez.

I THINK that is all correct, but it's been awhile since I used NIStune. Maybe just get on their website quickly and have a read of the documentation, it's all explained in there.

This thread is epic haha, I have been avoiding it but decided to read start to finish. About 45 minutes later and here we are!

To whoever mentioned getting a scooter and living with that for 6 months while their Skyline was off the road - my R34 has been off the road for over 2 years now and I have not had another car during that whole period, much to my wife's disgust!

I was surviving with a 250cc scooter to begin with, then I bought a new Kawasaki 1400 GTR a little while after. Coincidentally this morning the 312kg GTR fell over and smashed into my Skyline... Not happy :(

Anyway sounds like you have had quite an adventure with your Stagea lilcrash, I bet you have learnt a lot during the whole saga. Sounds like you are getting closer to getting everything sorted once and for all though, hopefully! Good luck with it all. Hopefully mine will give me less drama and I put it all back together.

Scooter for the win while the skyline is off the road saves heaps of money aswell

Yeah true I got stuck in the big down pore afew weeks ago was not much fun at all

You just need the appropriate wet weather gear. You get used to it when you have to. Although my bike is pretty comfortable in the weather anyway with its electric screen, heated bits etc :P

Stable in 125km/h winds is it? :P

Fark that. I had a scooter when I was 16. Bloody thing would get blown around so badly, I remember driving home from my gf's at 1am, pouring rain, no gloves. Was so cold I couldn't move my fingers to squeeze the brake :/ Good times.

Don't know about 125kmh winds :P But it does feel completely solid on the road even in heavy cross winds, probably because it weighs as much as a tank.

I know what you mean though as even my 185kg 250cc scooter is horrible to ride even in moderate winds.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So yes. All of them. Something like 98% of all fuel in the USA has 10% ethanol: https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/ethanol-fuel-basics It's labelled as like, AKI, 87, 91, 93 with an E10 or E5 or E15 label on the pump. At a certain point, it's not just "E10" instead of 91. It is 91, 95, 98, and all of them have 10% Ethanol in them. You can also get E85 and E30 which is why you do see some people rolling around with E30 tunes in them.

      Blue slip

      By Stringycheese · Posted

      Thanks for the response. This is an 04 EP3 Type R. JDM spec. Fairly certain they're just basic BC racing coils. I do plan to keep as the ride quality on stock I've been told is pretty meh given Sydney roads. If I were to go down that avenue, does NSW require them to be a certain spec (close to original) etc?

      Blue slip

      By PranK · Posted

      I've had two super conflicting experiences with blue slips. My 30 year old E39 waltzed through with no issues but my brother in law was knocked back on 12 y/o 3 series due to wiper blades and some cracking in a control arm bush.  What kind of coil overs? Do you want to keep them after?  If it was me I'd get some dirt cheap shocks and springs from eBay or scumtree. Not ideal but will get you over the line and might even be less than $1k.

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Hey guys,  Way back when (about 15yrs plus), I picked up a beautiful set of Tein 'Super Racing Spec Circuit Master RE' coilovers from Russman. I have legit never fitted them to my car, as it was garaged indefinitely while i bought a house Yada Yada. They look brand new! Anyway its time to pick up where I left off, and have started doing some khanacross and am booked in for a hill climb next month. The car has some hard af Nismo shocks in ATM, which has me wanting to upgrade again, and now I am left wondering if it's worth having these teins rebuilt? I think they where an ok shock back then, but how do they compare to what's on the market now?  Shockworks/mca are 2800+, and I am sure they are great. But if I can have these rebuilt and be better than, say, a set of bc's for around the cost of bc's, I would be happy with the performance v cost trade off.  If they are considered outdated and rubbish these days, so be it, I'll put them on the shelf and be happy to look at the pretty green colour while I save for the SW/MCA option. Grateful for your thoughts on the matter, and suggestions on who could do the rebuild if it's a worthwhile pursuit.  cheers, Rowdy.
