Thanks Duncan,

Been here a while though....just in the Stagea area hiding...lol....finding out about the world of the M35 Stagea....big learning curve!!!

Love to bring the R31 out to a track day but to expensive.....we only really use it for racing and maybe a test day every now and again to bed in new bit's or test/sort out something...if the timing's right though we might be able to make one of your track days and use it as a bit of a test session.

Would bring the M35 ARX but it might end up on the roof....bloody fat cow it is....and the brakes are next to useless...lol.

1.20 wakefield absolutely pouring rain and first time

I can vouch for that - it was pouring rain and cold on Saturday. I got a 1:16.4, but I'm not telling you what I was driving for fear of ridicule on this forum! My Datto track car is in pieces thanks to a spark plug 'picking up' the thread when I tried to remove it... of all the stupid little things that can go wrong prepping a car for a track day! So I took my road car down there instead. I think I could have gone a little quicker in the later session if it wasn't for the bloke in a shitbox proton rally car cutting half the corners and dragging heaps of mud onto the track just after all those apexes...

sorry Chris, didn't even realise at the time that anyone I'd know was there, apart from Marty. I should have, I saw your username on that other forum, but it just didn't click. I think after the 1180km drive on Friday my brain wasn't really operating all that well on Saturday. And apart from the stopage for the crashed Evo when I went back into town, it was all happening pretty fast out there.

there was someone else from SAU out there, who I was talking to for a while but I wouldn't have a clue what his username is. He's been thinking about buying one too, but was worried about how they handle until he saw mine out there on Saturday...

First time at Wakie in the GTR and first time out with a proper lap-timer (Mychron). It was pissing down first thing today, drizzled til lunch and lightened off after lunch.

Mark - was there another GTR out there being driven by a bloke names Jase?

Another GTR (R32 Maroon) - sorry I forget the guy's name. He was there with some others who had an S15 and Golf GTI between them - looked like the Nissan guys were really enjoying coming out of Turn 10! :)

Update: 1:37.06 for Winton

Only change to previous setup is 2860-5's instead of single T04z.

Arch, you're flying - I can say it's a great set up. We are now officially mechanically even. Should be good head to head.

Regards

Yep heaps better than the single that's for sure.

Mechanically even you say..hmm there might still be a thing or two you've got up on me still but they're not biggies and I'll try to get em too in the not to distant future *cough* transfer case. But looking forward to the head to head and following you around PI.

Ah ok - transfer case - a great mod. I have got one of those attessa controllers to put in after P.I., be interesting to see how the two mods interact.

All I have to do now is try and keep the engine temp under control for 4 flying laps - no mean feat this time of year.

Hey Andrew - on a test day I did at Winton I took 1s off my lap time by giving the Attessa button a couple of clicks. Infact my pb's at all tracks except Calder (where I haven't used it) have been with at least SOME value of input from the Attessa controller. Even though at places like Sandown and Phillip Island it may have just been one or 2 clicks. And I have transfer case mod done as well. The 2 mods act differently in how they effect the cars characteristics.

Cool, I've been umming and arring about one of those for 12 months and ended up grabbing the very last one that Duncan had.

Just got to gather up the courage to rip my virgin dash trim apart and cut and join a few wires.

Cheers

cmon get the drill out, you'll love it. nissan agreed and added more and more front torque throughout the different attessa version, in fact Andrew's R34 runs about the most stock. It's a shame Mark isn't making them any more, they've raced in Japan, won a couple of dutton rallies, done targa etc etc.

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      Man, different parts but the same numbers is terrible @dbm7! And it doesn't help that most online shops don't list the part numbers at all. They just give a list of compatible models...

      Slow when hot could also be because its getting more dynamic compression, OR things are getting a bit tighter once it is all expanded. If it were an earthing issue, typically I'd expect you to have it have issues all the time. Unless it's really a combination of both things. Where the higher compression, and things being a bit tighter, is giving that bit of extra load and you do need a slight clean up on the cables/connections.

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?
