G'day all,

Im a new Stagea owner, recently bought the lightly mod'd Stag in Brisbane from a fellow fourm member, and am happy-as about that fact! Yessir-e, another Stagea in little ol'Adelaide.

I bought the nicely priced low km Series 1 Stagea from a top skylinesaustralia member who was very pleasant to deal with (was very easy doing the purchase with same day return airfares from Adelaide). :)

Do any members know how many Stagea's are rolling around the Adelaide streets? They seem to be rarer than rocking horse poo. :confused: Ive seen two in 6months; a red series 1 and a green series 1. Now we can add a white pearl one to the mix, with a nice subtle bodykit.....

Also, with me being new to the Skyline turbo game having owned Falcodores and the like previously (mind you, Ive got my mod'd 150rwhp '98 Fireblade too, so Im already a performance junkie), can some Adelaide members recommend to me the 'preferred' workshops to go for complete servicing and performance modifications? :uh-huh:

Any info or recommendations would be highly appreciated. Want to find a servicer I can trust with the Stagea, plus of course I need a FMIC and 3in dump pipe and cat-converter, as we all do.

Cheers to you all!

Welcome mate, that makes it at least six Stageas in Adelaide. Three silver, one green, one red (mine) and yours.

The dump pipe and cat-converter are identical to the R33's so you won't have any trouble finding one. BDL Holdings at Richmond are good if you need FMIC piping made up or exhaust work done.

Look forward to seeing you on the road.

Cheers

Daniel

Thankx Dan,

See you out there!! Will have the Stag on the road in the next day or two, just waiting on the call from the transporter! :flamer:

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
