First of all let me say hello to all the car enthusiasts here.

I was there in the other Commodore (silver one)

Was my first time at Oran Park and had a ball.

Let me tell you its an experience on its own just to hold on and try and predict what the auto box will do in the barge :)

Cant believe how many nice cars there were out there (and quick too)

Ill have to come out again and get some better tyres and practice on the playstation. :D

Next time Ill remember to take my beanie !

Thanks John and all the boys for a great (cold)day.

*John the master cylinder stopper you made worked overtime :)

Window in block, sounds nasty. You were revving the ring out of it on Sunday trying to catch my zed so I not surprised. RB26 blocks hard to get and we don't have any sorry, try Just Jap . We have plenty of VG30 blocks, indestructible never heard of anyone busting one of those, why don't you try one?

At least you went out with a bang and have the pics of the flames on the track, which the prices of just went up. Makes for a good story at least Jason. Will you be ready for Sep 25 for the Zed V GTR Cup?

Jason, you could just buy an RB30 block. I've got one in the 31. you could buy the motor and have the car for free.

Sorry to hear about the motor though. It will be back bigger and better :P

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
