Andy, where's the videos???? :D

had no idea what you were on about, turns out tomei call sumps oil pans? Or am I just retarded :P

Would your car really need a larger oil pan/sump? Might be a shitload of money for minimal gain... Could be spent on that exhaust instead :) Happy to be proven wrong on this, sif I know anything about SR20s (or engines for that matter)

I think its around $300 (excluding shipping) for the oil pan from who I can get it off. Heres a link to it.

dude, just get out there and drive it

there is no need for those mods for a few fun days out and about and then you can decide where to next!

says she who just spent 10k on mods for a car that has seen one track day in 2 years! lol

I drive a mostly Stock Stag ( suspension and brakes only - stock power ) and I have a ball. Stop thinking so much , get out and do. The beautiful thing about SAU:NSW , there is no judgement, just encouragement.

Thanks again for a fantastic day guys.

Had a ball, apart from that black ute making me feel inferior - next time i will have semi's and run in 4wd! (if he decides to bring the wrecksie)

quick clip of the double garage course - haven't edited the rest yet...

this is 99% true

other than one or two people who will flame on no matter how hard the new member is trying to fit in and play nice its by and large a very welcoming and supportive community.

I have been to track days with multiple other clubs and sure, everyone was friendly as and it could be that with SAU im seeing the same people over and over again which helps in building a 'relationship' somewhat but i still think its arguably a tighter knit crowd than the larger and more unwieldy groups you might find over at say the HSV club.

They dont even let you in if you dont have a factory delivered HSV (not just a badge modded commy), imagine if we tried that with SAU? we would have half the members lol

anyway back OT

only got to see the second half of the day but it was as impressive as ever, especially the 'rolla's sliding skills and Daves runway long powerslide. I jumped on afterwards for a quick attempt myself but it is clearly harder than it looks..

Cheers to Stevo for letting me have a go and then helpfully blaming my slight fail on the tyres being 'too sticky'

anyway will try and upload the few pics i took. watch this space.

heres my fbook album

some stolen from hicass, some from chookie.

a bunch in the second half are mind though

    • Hey everyone, I recently bought myself a 2001 Nissan Stegea M35, and I've had a few issues that I had to fix, my car would start intermittently and I had a bad rocker cover leak, after a couple days of looking I finally found a part number that interchanges with the OEM starter as the OEM starters at $1300 and I can't afford that, this starter was only $270 and I replaced the start and still had the same issues, I posted a video asking for help online and it went very well, some guy said it was probably a bad ignition switch so I took my dash apart and turns out my ignition switch was half screwed in and was loose, once it was tightened it fired right up, I found a local place called "Boost factory" and they sold me a part of OEM Nissan rocker covers, they were $600 which was a shocker but I couldn't find them anywhere else, so I installed them and fixed my oil leak as the old rocker cover was cracked and warped, I now need to replace my boost air inlet hoses as they have some cracks.
    • I am being real ocd and do not want to make amy mistakes so appreciate all help provided. I am overly cautious so asking for opinion even if i know the answer   few questions,   1.re tensioner, should spring be greased lightly?    2.tensioner has two washers , one pressure washer and other has recessed/ seat. I am going to put the recessed one facing tensioner where edges are cut out and pressure washer on top   3. my car has custom triger kit sold few years ago by guy who initially built the engine. I moved the crank gear and it moved in and out easy, only way to remove belt is to slide the crankshaft gear forward which I did. I have seen these being very tough to move , anything to do with my woodruff key?   it has a crank sensor shown in purple which I assume reads from the 12 teeth position mounted to the crankcase gear   4. timing belt doesn’t have arrow stating front or back just a arrow which I think is direction of rotation . Do you agree?   5.i figured out why my crankcase cover was worn as there was no washer installed over the crankcase cover before the harmonic balancer was put in place. It is missing, anyone knows the part number? It looks like this https://justjap.com/products/genuine-nissan-crankshaft-timing-gear-rear-plate-washer-nissan-s13-ca18-a31-r32-rb20-r33-r34-c33-c34-c35-rb25?currency=USD   https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4535.382Zy2 https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4537.382dSz https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4534.382q4U  
    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
