wanna buy my wheels??? :)

haven't seen that pic before either. Car could be coming to sydney for Final Battle Autosalon too.

What new wheels you looking at man? That thing would be perfect with a new front bar! I 'think' I will be going in Autosalon Newcastle - havnt decided yet though

Spotted a Bayside Blue S2 just off Swan Street in Richmond last night around 11pm, Ian was that you? That's my first spot outside of Auto Salon, was pretty excited had to rub my eyes a couple of times to make sure it was really there! We were parked on the opposite side of the road, in the Commodore though... Would have been classic to have 2 Stagea's parked in the same street, need to get my alarm installed so I can remove the 5K theft excess! :)

Cheers

Luke

well if it were a s2 then unfortunately was not me...

although i have been on Swan st a couple of times this week and weekend.

OHH spotted a white S1 this morning on the way to work Corner Burwood Hwy and Springvale Rd....

though it was Alex as it was identical to his although i was wrong.... unless alex lent his car out??

Time: 09:54am

Place: Caloundra Turn Off

Direction: North on the Bruce Hwy

Car:Green S1

Identity: Qikstagea - I think.

I was heading South at the time (yellow S2) and I dont think the driver looked over. I tried to flash the lights but we had almost passed by then. What really freaked me out was that as soon as I saw the Stagea from a distance I said to the wife - there's qikstagea - didnt even have to think about it...I must be on this forum too much as I have only ever seen one picture of his car.

Spotted a Pearl White Stagea (s1) parked in Macquarie Street in Parramatta (NSW) this afternoon. I was on the way home from work, keeping my eyes open for traffic and kamakaze pedestrians, so by the time I realised what it was, it was too late for me to check the number plates... Looked stock, though.

and qikstagea is thrilled to know his car is recognisable from a distance... - thats what its all about ladies and gents. poser value. oh and comfort etc.

my fiance had the car that day though... cos i have no licence atm... but yep was definitely it.

    • Hey guys! Y'all are the masters so figured I'd check in on a few items here. - My engine sounds ever-so-slightly more raspy than the other NA RB25s I've listened to. It's barely noticeable but definitely a slightly different sound. - When I back off the throttle at high RPM, I will sometimes get a pop out of the exhaust, assuming this can be diagnosed as misfire. Some history on the car: - Had an exhaust leak in auction sheet but was claimed to be fixed by seller (bought from USA importer).  - Car's coil packs and sparks were replaced when it was sold to me, but unsure on what the gap is and whether the coil packs are correct.  - A prior mechanic had misdiagnosed a pilot or throwout bearing sound as LSPI/detonation. Had played with timing a bit, pops/raspy sound of engine just got worse. Got timing reset. - Had failed emissions a few times. First time went in as is, failed. Second time, replaced cat, still failed, running rich as hell. Third time replaced o2 sensor, passed. Car still smells gassy though. - Timing belt and valve cover gasket also replaced.  - Gas mileage is... low. about 350-400K per tank.  Any idea if I'm having any serious issues here or does this all sound like normal old NA RB stuff and I'm fine to drive it with the pops/slightly raspy engine? If it'll help, I can get drop a video of the sound of the engine.
    • So....to find any R chassis part number, get your VIN (will be something like ER33-xxxxxx for you) and go to: https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan and enter it. From there you have access to a web version of Nissan's part system, FAST. It is a bit tricky to get used to, so maybe have a shot and post up what you think.  You can also search by general model but note in some cases your car might have different options so VIN is safest.  On diagram 211 I got 14075-75T16 for Connector, Water Hose If I search for part 14053‑21U10 that you posted, that is also a water hose but not the one bolted to the plenum and 14075‑04U00 is the fitting where the water hose goes into the block.
    • Yeah now we are talking I much prefer coolers in the front middle because it lessens the chance of a small bump to a corner stopping the whole event. I was thinking the AT cooler can move out of the radiator, delete the AT/engine coolant interwarmer and mount a separate cooler with a thermoswitch somewhere further back as is common in racing, that would be one thing. Beyond that, the engine oil cooler is an obvious one to move to the wheel arch, potentially one on each side, but unused space is an issue. I did have a earlier pic with the bumper off but it doesn't show how busy the corners are: DS is full of the auto driving sensors and PS is totally fully of windscreen washer fluid reservoir But ultimately I was hoping to keep the AC, and the water/air heat exchanger is fundamental so it is not just the radiator that needs to be in front BTW here's airflow to the rad as it ran at the track (one horn is gone now and I'll remove the lights next time):
