Looking for the owner of a red stagea, gets seen everyday between garden city and the Ipswich motorway. What mods have you got, my father in law keeps saying how quick it is compared to mine.

During the last week & a bit?

Lol. What mods have you got? Got a power figure?

Hi flowed stock turbo, free flowing exhaust, Pod & a dodgy bleed off type boost controller. Last week I was going up the hill near the stadium & the wastegate thought it was a good idea to stay open... the gauge read ~25psi when I knew what was going on, besides the sudden loss of traction from the rear :)

The next few months will see a total upgrade:

Link ECU

A secret modded Intercooler (will tell what it is after I prove a concept)

Garret GT3076R

Mandrel bent 3 1/2 inch system w/Varex muffler

Bosch 044 & fuel regulator

550CC JECS Injectors

This will be tuned for ~300KW

I'm using the Stag as a test bench for my '85 Bluebird. Once it's running sweet, the whole donk is to be swapped over (bluebird has RB20DET atm).

A long LONG time after that, I've got another RB25DET that will be a crank up rebuild (I have access to a 6 axis CNC machine for billet fun) & I'll be hunting for the 900-1000hp mark :)

Forgot to mention the Stag is my work car :P

Sounds like fun, mine was tuned upto 306hp before one of my rings let go, I'm half way through pulling the engine out.

That's gonna be a quick blue bird.

The Bluebird weighs ~900 KG. It's been a project for the best part of 3 years.

Looks a bit different from this photo today

    • Nah, don't bother doing any actual measurements on the car. Just go ask the inter-f**king-net.
    • I currently have 18 x 9 +30 on the front with 18 x 10.5 +38 on the rear. Absolutely regretted it. Ended up putting 15 mm spacers on front and 25 mm spacers on the rear. Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers. Definitely would go more aggressive then what you were originally planning. Keep in mind my guards are rolled and cars fair low so you might possibly need to roll guards depending how aggressive you go and how low the car is. Im not an expert but the 18 x 8.5 +25 18x9.5 +30 Sounds like it would sit much better.
    • Hey guys, sorry i have been researching for a few months and absolutely cannot wrap my head around this. I am about to order some rims to fit my R34 Gtt with coilovers My original plan was to order Rota grid R in 18x8.5 +30 235 40 R18 Fronts 18x9.5 +35 255 35 r18 rears But then the thought in my head said this isnt aggressive enough. I want the most concave spokes i can get without too much of poke and scrubbing   So my thoughts now is  18x8.5 +25 18x9.5 +30   My question is will this be the most aggressive i could get it without any guard rolling and does the type of rim style affect the offset / size.   Thanks everyone.
    • Lower parts are there. On passenger seat, bright yellow bit is the release mount. On drivers, bright yellow bit is the lower buckle for the other side. My bet is lowers are tucked out of the way as much as possible for visuals.
    • I'm guessing its a 4 point harness, 3 of the 4 belts are visible. I'm guessing the hidden belt is tucked down between the seat and door.
