Hello Guys,

Thought i would drop by and say hello as there is alot of good info on this site :D

I will be using this as my daily / tow vehicle for my S15.

Car was stock when it came over from japan. So far i have fitted my ebc and a fmic now running at 0.8 bar.

Got r33 front and rear calipers to fit.

LPG conversion.

I put my Advans from my s15 on the stag. Going to swap for my spare 350z alloys though as I dont think it suits.

Now just need some masa wings so I can crack on with the r 34 conversion.

The intercooler was an easy fit to be honest just needed to cut away some of the bumper beam. The pipe work used the original wing mount openings.

Pretty sure there are a couple of LPG powered RS4Ts in Aus.

here's one:

I think your car will look better with the 350Z rims - haven't seen a three spoked rim that I like ever! Have seen a few Stageas with 350z rims - they go well.

Im also having some Fuel cut issue's

I have done some searching on here and i think i need to unplug another sensor.

I have an EBC fitted and every time the car boosts to my set level of 0.75 bar it drops off then fuel cuts :(

Yes, that's my LPG Stagea, there are a few others that I know about including NM35's however they are all dual fuel.

Started the R32 GTR brake conversion on the stagea the weeked.

Calipers arrived before bank holiday so I made a start.

FYI BnQ stock the 14mm od tube £3.94 for 2m worth. I tried every metal place then called to BnQ on a whim and result.

I also bought longer M12 Bolts.

After you remove the caliper on the S2 you will find this issue.

So use the 14mm OD tube and the longer M12 bolts to fit the calipers.

Cut the pipe and slot the insert into the S2 knuckle.

I will update with the finished pics tonight. I have not started on the single pot rear's yet. I will take off the stock S2 rear caliper tonight and see what needs to be done. Lets hope it bolts straight on......

You may find you have to trim the dust shield/stone guard whatever its called.

Didn't have to trim the front shield but did on the rears. Looks like when I get the big brake upgrade for the front I will need to trim them.

R32 Gtr brakes fitted front and rear! Finally !!!

Fitted some bc coilovers today! Not a lot of adjustment in the front shocks. They won't go any lower. Will need to raise the back a bit to level it out. Anybody else fitted these?


As for the ride they are brilliant :)

      Starting again

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Duncan · Posted

      Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
