Another Stagea Spotted!

Today on our Glorious Mountain, The Stagea Capital of the Nation, a silver S1. Two very nice guys raising money for our Paralympians. A stocker but had rims to die for, 245/35ZR19. Very HOT. Owner, Lee, does not have the net so is not on our list of owners. Shame.

Silver S2 in a driveway at La Perouse, was a little way off in the distance but looked alright. if your on this forum, howdy :D The fish and chips and the swim were fantastic :woot: nice little neck of the woods out that way.

And a M35 ARX in a dealer on Parramatta Road, Concord (http://www.japaneseautocentre.com.au/el/zoom.php?id=1245) if anyone is chasing one :(

Ok, time for a rest ;) I've been driving around the city most of the day as I had to drop someone at the airport, I'm knackered now!

spotted a white S2 with what looked like R32 GTR rims, front mount and no rear wing at the bottom of Rainbow Drive in Mudgeeraba (my neck of the woods) a few days ago: was going to stop and say Hi, but I had a 10 pack of chocolate paddle pops in the car.... I had other priorities.

Followed a silver S2 with a bigarse Nismo sticker on the rear window through Forrest lake and onto Centenary hwy yesterday. I was the cranky looking prick in the yellow S2 behind.

LOL did he snub you or something? or do you always cruise around looking like a cranky prick? :P

Yep, work will do that to you.

Mind you, I've been off work for a while due to a contract ending. I can't wait to get back to work, especially 'cos I'll get to drive my Stag lol beats the train!

I spotted a nice clean shiny M35, in my driveway :D

Needs a vaccumm and clean inside but the outside is washed, might get around to giving it a good wax job later this evening.

Nice one Danny, makes a massive change from the old '32, right?

Spotted a black Stagea (I'm pretty sure it was an s2, and also pretty sure it had a 260RS wing on it) on Church Street in North Parramatta tonight, turning left onto the start of Pennant Hills Road.

    • 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):
    • your right the maps for Australia came out in 2017 but are 2010 maps. i got the updated maps SD card put it in and it was the same. Same maps in my Brothers Nissan Patrol. 2020 i think his car is
