Hey guys, I've got a problem with my Stagea,

1st gear/2nd gear everything is great!

3rd gear when I hit 3000rpm and my foot is still down quite a bit, it will like just act as if I put it in Neutral and jump to 5000rpm then it will be like "holy shit what da faqqqq" then it will go back to like 4000rpm and continue to climb as well as the power in the car, this happens for 3rd/4th and 5th ( Maybe 2nd and 1st it's just the gears are too short to notice really... )

It's a 1998 Nissan Stagea RS-FOUr (RWD now ) apparently its Day Z edition however it's manual and it's got an NEO RB25DET in it..

I also replaced the spark plugs yesterday, car is running a lot better! However still the problem persisted

Any help please!

I got told it could be a boost leak?

Hope it's something small,

Cheers!

^^^what he said...try pulling up a hill in third and then clutch kick (slam it to the floor and up quickly) while maintaining pressure on the accelerator - if your rear wheels smoke up the clutch is ok but if the revs don't come back instantly time for a new clutch.

    • Block bump. $400. As above cyl 6 needs bore or sleeve.
    • I would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.
    • I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.
    • From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.
    • They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
