Hi All,

Been a while since I was in this neck of the woods and I'm considering purchasing another Stagea as I have gotten over the whole race car as a daily thing.

I was considering a Toyota Caldina or WRX wagon but feel for the same coin I may as well get the extra space and an auto WRX just doesn't sit right with me.

So if anyone in Sydney is selling or thinking of selling feel free to post a link to your ad in this thread. I would prefer to purchase off someone on the forum as I know you would use the right parts and at least take an interest in all things Stagea.

Looking at M35's as that's what I had previously and my last 5 cars have had some form of boost so no point in changing things now.

I'm really looking forward to getting back into the scene as the few guys I did speak with or meet were just really genuine and helpful. Not sure if Andy and Craig are still around but if you are big HELLO!!

Cheers,

Andrew

Welcome back Andrew.

Both cars are very good cars

Link to Spooling's old Stags build thread below. A very nice example... I would have snapped this up quick smart myself if I held off purchasing for a few months. As mentioned before, the r35 seats suit it perfectly - much better seating height than stock in my opinion... and probably everyone else's actually.

Those are some nice looking cars. Makes me want to sell mine and get one of them.

Any one want to buy a stock as a rock white M35 :woot:

theres a guy by the name of Andrew Firth on Facebook that was looking for a stocker! :P kidz

Said no one. EVER! (major drongo)

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
