Dale - do Insurance company call centre workers fit equally well in the rear of the Stagea as Backpackers?

Once they've had a phone receiver cable tied between their teeth; things get much better.

I do find it very hard to rid the load area of the all pervading stench of bullshit.

Three mates, one half out the sun roof, other two crouched in the back with the half hatch open, all equipped with nerf guns, shooting another mate's car with chalk bullets :D

but shhhhhhhhhhhhh about it ;)

A full PA system from kid's school, including front of house speakers standing upright. But that's not as impressive as:

We all have our reasons for buying these wagons, some as a practical way of disposing of bod moving stuff, or just because we like the look, but would you try to sell your car by showing pics of all the crap you've carted? Well there's someone on carsales doing that right now (apologies if you're reading this, but you've got to admit your pics need posting here, lol)

On that note Texikhana is on again 15th July. Lots of space, drive as hard you like, blah blah, you know the drill.

I lug my band gear (bass, amplifier head, cabinet and effects) around in the back of the Stag... gets a few more looks when I unload for a gig than the usual shit heap commodore and falcon wagons :cool:

I pretty much sold my Supra for a Stagea because of my boys...

I have a 61kg 16 month old purebred Bullmastiff "Frank", and a 54kg Great Dane x German Shepherd / Rotty Mix "Zeus" - but soon will be adding another Bullmastiff girl to the family to breed with my boy Frank.

Soon I'll be taking the Stag off the road to do some mods to it so they will have to squish into what ever daily I buy till it's back on the road.

This was a little while ago:

But thanks to my brother wanting to make sauce, my car smelt like tomato for quite some bloody time after this...

Sometimes Domo Kun and myself go for a drive and check out the hills (lol)

Or trying to get rid of a tree we cut down to make room for a dog run for a third dog...

(with Zeus kindly helping me.... rather not helping by trying to run off with the sticks..)

I've transported:

  • new foam double-bed mattress, which took a bit of convincing to "fold" so it would actually fit through the tailgate aperture;
  • about 9 of those large plastic tubs and about 10 of those cardboard boxes of paperwork (in one go) when my sister's old boss was moving her business out of a small factory warehouse and into her garage;
  • plenty of trips to Ikea;
  • a pair of R32 GT-R front seats and matching rear bench;
  • my dogs (used to have a German Shepard x Rottie male, he weighed in around 45kgs; still own a pure Border Collie, she's not that big though);
  • 4x 18" wheels and tyres plus 3x backpacks full of photography gear when I went with two friends to Wakie last year.

Can't really remember much else at the moment.

Let me see.....

  • 50" Plasma still in box from the TGG
  • Twin bunks steel frame + 2 x matress (had to push the driver seat forward so far my nose was on the steering wheel)
  • various boxes full of clothes & house stuff when moving house
  • R34 front bar
  • DRIFT R34 style bucket seats + rails
  • air matress while camping in Kangaroo Valley

When working for a tactile company as an installer I permanently had
  • False floor to store consumables
  • wet & dry vac
  • Various Hilti power tools (hammer drill/core drill)
  • large carry tool box
  • 2 wheel trolley

And the list will continue no doubt

    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
    • It's TWO steering wheels actually. 😛 one for each hand They are wheels, and they steer!
