NSW, VIC & SA have a suprisingly large number of stag fans and constantly are running stagea meets/events ect, wouldnt mind doing something like that in brissy but seems to be very few of us here.

I've seen alot of stagea's on the road in the bris/gold coast/tweed area but from what i gather, hardly any of them are on these forums. This makes it virtually impossible to try and co-ordinate any form of cruise/meet if we can't communicate with them.

I know Hugh and his son have stageas on the Tambo mountain (by the way Hugh, my parents are setting up a block of land up there now so i shall have to come and check out your Unicorns some time).

Maybe we need to liase with other clubs to try and find more stagea owners ?

which stagea page on FB - can only find WA & SA & Stagea enthusiasts pages..

ive been to quite a few meet in the last 12 months from downshift/layitlow/Otaku Garage and a few i cant remember and have one seen 2 x S1 C34 & 2 x S2 C34 & 1 x M35 stagea's in all of them and most ppl going to those (excluding Otaku Garage) dont know or care about the stags that do turn up as there more interested in skyline, supra, integera, wrx, holden, ford ect... Brisbane has a very.... average... car scene, most either wankers pulling skids and screwing for everyone else or only care about themselves... lots of up and coming photographers though...most under 20yrs...

If anyone wants a premeet meet n greet pretty sure we could tee up something small easily enough - would just be aiming for something like Mt Cootha or somewhere with plenty of room with a view (for those that are good at taking photo's) but needs to be fairly central to everyone too

Are you talking the lookout? cos there is never any space there!

Other options:

Mt Gravatt Mountain is pretty forgiving for space.

Bartleys Hill reserve at Ascot is small too but usually not busy

Have you been up Mt Gravatt mountain before? If not, might be worth the trip. Its a bit of fun, i usually head up once a month or so, 3 or 4 runs up and down, its probably only about 1km of road up

      Never ending fuel pump drama

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      So last night pulling away from the lights, I lost power for about 1 second. Bit weird, but I kept driving... 5 minutes later the pump completely dies. When I tried to start the car, the pump won't even prime.  I left the car for about an hour, tried to start it and it all appeared fine. Pump primed, car started, got the fuel pressure I should have.... Start driving home, 5 minutes later it dies again. I'm stuck in a shit spot this time going up hill with a car right behind me, so I just let the car continue to turn over while praying to the fuel pump gods. After about 2 minutes of turning the engine over, the fuel pump came back to life and I got home (only about another 5 min away).  So I've been digging around online, it seems like the 525 fuel pumps really don't like to be run at 100% all the time. I've found quite a few examples online of people killing their Walbro 525 pumps within about a year of usage when they are run without PWM.  So, my pump is an Aeroflow 525 (AF49-1057) and I've been running it at 100% without PWM. I'm thinking the Aeroflow 525 didn't like being run at 100% and has burnt itself up.  I really am sick of dealing with fuel pump issues, my current thoughts are -  1. Use a Walbro 450 and run it without PWM. It seems like these pumps hold up pretty well to being run at 100% all the time. I only make about 350kw and can't see me making any more power any time soon so this is probably a fine option.  2. Get a Walbro 525, run it with PWM. I know doing this will annoy me as I feel like with only 350kw, its extra expense that I don't "need" and I'll be thinking the whole time while setting it up that I should have gone with option 1. I know I'll be happy with this option when its setup and running, its only the initial setup frustration and cost as an issue.  3. Get a Walbro BKS1001 brushless pump. This is the fu*k it I'm already going PWM, might as well go full retard. This option just seems better in every way, with the only downside being cost. But I don't know much about this pump so I could be wrong.  Happy to get everyone's thoughts before I go digging around in the fuel tank again.

      Like loud exhausts? You could be a psychopath.

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Actually, it is probably pretty legit. I mean, it's still woke feminazi bullshit academia, but you would have to agree that it is very likely that there would be a correlation between wanting a loud exhaust and scoring at the unpleasant end of the scales for dark triad personality traits. The fact that they found it didn't correlate with narcissism and only with psychopathy and sadism definitely shows that the loud exhaust thing is more of a "f**k you" than a "look at me", and I reckon that rings pretty close to most of the dickheads who take it to the extreme. Remember, this is correlation with tendency to be closer to one end of a personality trait scale than the other end. Of course someone who is at the literal opposite end of the psychopathy scale is going to be so considerate of others that they wouldn't even think about wanting to upset anyone with a loud exhaust. So the finding isn't that "you are a psychopath". Just that you score more towards that end of the scale than someone who doesn't like loud exhausts (on average, not necessarily even for specific individuals).

      Blue Smoke from exhaust, RB25DE+T

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Stock R33 boost control, with the exhaust, and FMIC done, will boost creep. There is no tuning around it if it is the factory boost solenoid.   If it has an aftermarket electronic boost controller, the settings/mapping can be altered in it.   Oil could be anything as mentioned, however did it ever do it before you did the turbo swap? How much and how often did you drive the car before the swap?   I'm hinging on too much oil supply, or it's not draining properly.   To check, pull the air outlet off the turbo. Is it full of oil? Drop the exhaust at the turbo, does it appears to be oiled/coked? Now pull turbo and check the exhaust manifold, does it appears oiled and coked the same way?   Secondly, the PCV could even be stuffed / not functioning properly and will cause blowing of blue smoke.
