Hey Guys,

Sorry I had to leave at Thirroul, Dad and I had stuff to do this arvo. Had a great time driving through the national park, and good to meet some of you from the forums/sau club.

Some photos from Audley

PS. The old man hasnt shut up about the silver stagea, he has already checked carsales etc lol

The Stagea's great!!! but there's a few things that really need to be done as precautionary measures for happy / no hassles motoring, best to do a little research on them.

IE: dump pipe/turbo - there's a cat in the stock one that holds a lot of heat on the back of the turbo which has a ceramic exhaust wheel causing early failure also drilling out the oil feed drain is a good mod too. ( turbo has a life expectancy around the 100K km - some of which last longer, I've just hit 100k myself and it's still good and I've given mine a bit of a flogging on the track etc) also cooling mods to suit Australian conditions wouldn't go astray!!!

then there's the usual wear and tear.

But all in all I recommend them!!!

also note: they're not easy to mod as the RB's due to the ECU (they have a VQ motor in them)

but it was a great day out, enjoyed the drive and got a lot of interest/complements on the car which was great!!! most car meets/cruises I go on people ignore it HAHA

Cheers, Theo.

Thanks to everyone who came today for a great day. I hope to see you all again in 2014 for a few more cruises, it was great meeting all those I got to. Also big thanks to James and Danny for organising everything!!

Here are a few photos my girlfriend took from the carpost-95739-13877876960543_thumb.jpgpost-95739-13877877115038_thumb.jpgpost-95739-13877877257417_thumb.jpgpost-95739-13877877393024_thumb.jpgpost-95739-13877877581132_thumb.jpgpost-95739-13877877868009_thumb.jpgpost-95739-1387787805604_thumb.jpgpost-95739-13877878179008_thumb.jpgpost-95739-13877878361971_thumb.jpgpost-95739-13877878572715_thumb.jpgpost-95739-13877878742851_thumb.jpgpost-95739-13877878851858_thumb.jpgpost-95739-13877878939329_thumb.jpgpost-95739-13877879030041_thumb.jpgpost-95739-1387787918993_thumb.jpgpost-95739-13877879325783_thumb.jpg

I love the last one. The cop following makes us look badass hahaha

Hey guys,

Awesome cruise, had a great day out! Here's one shot of many I took today. Got plenty to go through and edit! Should be up tomorrow night, I'll post some on here but most will be on my Facebook page.

Apologies if its crap. It's my first time filming and editing. Still have plenty to learn. !

Video was great and so are the photos :) No problem in editing at all! It was a great cruise, should do it again sometime!

Merry Xmas to all !!

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
