Apart from me and AlexCim, are there any other Melbourne stagea owners out there? If so, post a reply to this, as we should help each other out on various stagea issues :D

We should also get together sometime soon to look at all the different stageas!

Burns and i think michealquinn (spelling on that one) are from melbourne.

I was going to send a PM around with details to meet up, but that would be good to meet up, then we chat about things.

Plus, i would love to talk to Burns about his, having already done FMIC and stuff, could help me out.

I think there was a thread a while back stating where we were all from, maybe it needs to be dug up and updated?

That was I thread I started many months ago asking for any Melbourne owners of a series 2 - as I wanted to look at one before buying one. I didn't get many responses (ie non from series 2 owners!)

So I think it's better to start a new thread that's a bit wider.. :-)

actually, I just did a search and that post isn't around anymore. In fact, the stagea posts only seem to be staying around for a few months, then they are gone.....

I better start copying usefull stuff over to my web site so that I've still got it when I need it!!

How about we organize something now and if more people are from melbourne, they can just say.

As for me, i study during most days. Ill assume most people are busy weekdays, so i am free any weekend as long as i get about 1 weeks notice, prefer saturdays as i do homework sundays, but they are still fine.

What would people want to do? Just meet up and chat? BBQ? Cruise somewhere(then BBQ??). Hills view or Beach? etc etc

Suggestions would be good.

My preferences : On a nice day like today (may not be this arvo) cruise up into some BBQ place in the Dande's. Buy some meat on the way somewhere, snags etc. No drinking for me, P's still ;)

Cook em up and talk over food?

Hi.....my first post here.

When is the cruise looking at going ahead, as my stagea is sitting over in japan bout to be shipped over, so got bout 5 wks til l can come.

Are there many people in melb with stagea's, ll've seriously been looking for a month on my drive to uni everyday, and l'm yet to see one.

There is a guy on carsales selling his Stagea, he is in Glen Waverley area.

His number is on his listings, i contacted him and im gonna meet up with him next week some time. I really want to discuss his brembo brake setup...and some other stuff... but yeh, when we organize something, ill invite him along too (assuming he isnt already on this site and going to invite himself)

Others???? Now wonder we don't see too many around town!

Just some questions so i can put some ideas out

1. What dates are best for people, saturday or sunday?

2. Where is everyone coming from, dont want to make it an east meet is someone has to come from the west...could make it northern

3. Preferences on activity/event (BBQ, beach etc)

4. How soon should the event be?

My answers

1. Any days are fine, prefer saturdays

2. East side, Forest Hill

3. BBQ in hills (Silvan Res is a nice day place, page 122, H11)

4. I would pefer something in late september, gives me some time for some parts to arrive (more conversation topics :P)

Sounds like it will turn out to be a nice event...Post your replies

    • Has equal chance of cleaning an AFM and f**king an AFM. I think you can work out what happened. When the Hitachi ECU sees the AFM die and goes into the associated limp mode, then it will start and run just fine, because it ignores the AFM and just runs on idle maps that will do what it needs to get it going. But there is no proper load signal, so that's about all it can do. My suggestion? If you don't want to go full aftermaket ECU, then get some R35 GTR AFM cards and some housings to put them in, in the stock location, and Nistune the ECU. Better to do a good upgrade than just replace shitty 40 year old tech with the same 40 year old tech.
    • So my car was recently having trouble starting on initial crank, I would need to feather the gas for it to start up but besides that it would start and run fine. So I clicked the idle air control valve (with throttle body cleaner) and cleaned the MAF sensors (with MAF cleaner). The start up issue was fixed and now the car turns over without the assist of the throttle, but the car is in limp mode and wont rev past 2.5k RPM. From what I understand the IACV would not put the car in limp mode, so I am to believe it is the MAF sensors, but it was running fine before and now I cant get it out of limp mode. I cleaned the MAF made sure the o rings were seated properly. Made sure the cables were plugged in properly, the cables also both read the same voltage. Does anybody know why this is or what could be causing this or how to get it out of limp mode?
    • Ooo I might actually come and bring the kids, however will leave the shit box home and take the daily
    • Thanks. Yeah I realised that there's no way I'd be able to cover the holes with the filler, it would just fall through. Thanks again @GTSBoy!
    • That was the reason I asked. If you were going to be fully bodge spec, then that type of filler is the extreme bodge way to fill a large gap. But seeing as you're going to use glass sheet, I would only use that fibre reinforced filler if there are places that need a "bit more" after you've finished laying in the sheet. Which, ideally, you wouldn't. You might use a blob of it underneath the sheet, if you need to provide some support from under to keep the level of your sheet repair up as high as it needs to be, to minimise the amount of filler you need on top. Even though you're going bodge spec here, using glass instead of metal, the same rules apply wrt not having half inch deep filler on the top of the repair. Thick filler always ends up shitting the bed earlier than thin filler.
