Jay used to have those plates in the standard NSW yellow and black when he had the monster light green s1 with the Haltech, GT35R turbo, etc.

Those plates (and that car) then:

Those plates (in black on white) on the s2 I saw today:

thats the one i was looking at buying thru jspec just before i got mine it had 155000 kays on it and i let it go.it turned up on a yard on parramatta rd about 3 months later with about 48000 kays on spedo.i double checked with jspec and is the same car.i was told motor since been replaced cos bottom end was thumping in time to the stereo and now has a 2.6 in her.i see it often around maroubra on way to work.glad i didnt buy it now

i spotted one of the members stageas on here (cant remember the username). s1 white with r34 gtr rims and its got the rb26 in it from memory. I spotted it at the burnout show today on a local property, pity he didnt have a go on the skidpad :laugh:

this is in perth BTW and the skidpad was in back of Wanneroo area :w00t:

260rsStagea?? Daniel? lives down our way... seen and tooted at him the other day as he was turning onto dixon road :D

im not sure i know he rocked up with a blue series 7/8 rx7 with cf bonnet and didnt stay long, thats all as i didnt go and checkout the car up close (was watching the burnouts instead lol)

spotted a silver S1 with rims on the corner of Victoria Ave and Adelaide tce about 5.20pm last night. I have seen the same one a few times in the same spot too - anyone on here?

Spotted a Silver S2 Stagea driven by a lady today on Lockwood road in Burnside here in Adelaide this morning on the way to school at about 8:10am... I was half asleep then realized i recognized the front end of a stage at the other side of the roundabout was wide awake after that..........

I love the look of the series 2's...

Spotted a white Stagea at metro nissan brisbane today. Nismo kit? Definitely nismo sideskirts.

Actually a mate spotted it :-) and sent me a pic saying "ahhh so THATS a stagea... now i understand why you want one..."

Bit pissed that he has seen one in the flesh, and i still havent ever seen one except for photos!

Spotted white S2 Stagea on Sydenham road here in Adelaide near Norwood at about 1pm or so....... Very nice example, think it had been at the work shop around the corner as a mate saw a white s2 their the day before :thanks:

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
