Hi Timmmay, Yep, Its still got the Navi system in it. Of course, its all in Japanese, so not much good for here unless I can get the right software etc. It would be nice to know if anyone has had any experience in either flashing or firmware upgrading, adapting an existing system to fit etc. Its got a TV tuner too, which Is also in the same boat. Cos its got the 6"screen, I reckon I could update the head unit to one of the new DVD players, send the output to the screen and fit up a Ipod adaptor to run the Ipod Video. Should be trick then!

That blue one looks good. I was interested in that too, with the leather and woodgrain. If its in a similar condition to mine, it will be a damn good pickup. :P

Saw Marc today, he should be right for Saturday. If we can get Tee along it should be great. Apparently there is another Silver Series 2 in town, so Marc is trying to get in touch.

Looking forward to posting some great pics for everyone.

Spotted PranK's Stagea at Unique Autosports in Castle Hill - our prez is leaving the ranks of the Stagea faithful and the car is up for sale...

Havn't seen Prank around for a while now. I wonder what is making him sell :P

mmm, no1 in Adelaide knows what a damn Stagea is, so, I'll never be spotted. lol

but then again I keep the beast locked up & she doesnt see any sunshine, so that doesnt help.....

mind you, she gets HEAPs of looks when out & about.. ie you can see em thinking wtf is THAT?

i keep getting g'd up at servos by the attendants. they ask if it's the new volvo or audi. they get a bit surprised when i say it's a nissan. i don't let them know though, i just say it's a nissan stationwagon. the intercooler on the front is enough to keep them thinking

Spotted white stagea on springvale road, guy was from kamikaze and i chatted with him. They are trying to get vic compo for them

Also, spotted one in Bayswater bursons carpark (he parked next to me). I direct him to the forum.

These buggers are all over the joint now!

:(

We had a get together yesterday in Canberra. We had Terminal's very nice RS4v, Marc2's hot looking Series 2, with 18's and a full body kit, and my Rs4 Dayz edition, with the full body kit and carbon fibre kit. Here is a pic. Terminal will be posting some soon too. :(

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
