Zaco- Yeah, we can only but try to get people to post more often. You ever come down to Alice?

Pig- Don't know what Darwin is like but Alice really sux for anything performance. Seems like Melbourne is the go.

Have seen a few websites which look ok but never actually used any. Where are you? Can recommend panel beater's in Alice but it really depends on the actual person doing the work, ie. Not an apprentice. :action-smiley-069:

I am looking for an Intercooler soon if anyone can help me with that. I have an R33 GTS-T 40th Anniversary 1998.

Hey Zac, Hope the pulsar treats you well, I was considering one couple of years back but went with a Mazda MX6 instead..

The Intercooler.....What brand would you recommend, Don't want to spend too much but REALLY don't want a shitty one as it gets pretty hot here in summer, and where to get it from. I will need to ship it up here too, will probably have a mate install it for me and another mate Dyno tune it afterwards. Any recommendations on size or anything else I need to consider?

Thanks for any help/advice offered!.

Had a look at the pulsar, had sparkles through the paint :) No go there.

As for intercooler, as i said in the other post, i dont think there is a huge difference in them, i'd stick with a brand name just to be safe. Theres 2 types but according to hot 4's they're not really different. As for size, 600x300x15 is the norm most of the time, im pretty sure its 15. Can pick them up from a few places, auto bahn, stupid cheap, repco... never bought one but shouldnt be hard to find one. I live up here in Darwin, i'd recommend getting into contact with High-Tech tuning, he seems to be the guy for skylines up here.

600x300x50 is the nor size, 15mm is to small to work .

Thats it, knew there was a 5 in there somewhere.....

Thanks Guys!!! ;)

Looking in Darwin at the moment, see how i go.. have another potential at the moment, 1978 Leyland Mini S, with a few mods...

Thats the mini that is now sitting in my garage (not that i actually have one)!

Suspension movement is the air in the tyres, stiff is good... except for certian roads... my ass hurts.

Great fun to drive, has a great note to it, and with the work done, it has some balls too. For a mini.

Cruising the other night there was 2 R33's crusing along, one in left lane one in right, i was in the centre.... dropped back a gear and flawed it past them.... then they did it back... bye bye :)

Was funny though, one asian bloke was hanging out the window with his thumbs up :D

I saw your Clubman out on Friday night, looks very neat ;)

I also have a 1978 Clubman, they are such a fun little car.

You should come down to the next motorkharna and have a go.

Let me know if you want any further details if your interested.

      Nice one, I'd argue that the white S1 RS260 is certainly the best looking of the Stageas. And yes, fully agree on the forum situation. It's a bit of a shame, but at least SAU is a good place to be. I found the facebook groups to give me FOMO because people were trying to one-up each other and show off in some way. Feels much more natural here. There are people with seriously nice builds, but I can appreciate it rather than it making me question my life choices. Might be that people are more open with sharing how much work/money/suffering it takes to actually get there.

      Evening, wanted to pop in and finally register to say hi to everyone here on SAU!   It's been a while since I've been active on a forum, but back in the day I used to be relatively active on ClubLexus and other hobby-related forums. I'm glad to see SAU is still around, since with the advent of Facebook and Discord it seems forums aren't what they once were. As a recent new owner of an S1 260RS Stagea, I've found so many older guides and helpful tips from SAU that I figured I needed to join and say a grave thank you. My recent acquisition has only become legal in the US for the past year, and knowing that similar car enthusiasts from across the pond have already figured out the kinks and tricks to get these 25+ year old cars running well. I look forward to diving into more of the SAU forums as well as hopefully contribute some info myself for future posterity.   As a pic tax, here is one of the few good photos I have of my Stagea. I hope to get way more in the future!

      Is this where I say "Hey man my airbox cost me horsepower in my Naturally Aspirated Engine"? (I know you need them for legality in NSW)

      1.5mm alloy folded up, it will need a tweek, as the angled bend only got to around 45° as that was the max that the break press would get with the other bends, and I needed a fair bit more, but and the alloy is easy to bend too my will by hand once I trim the lower section out I'll Dremel out and form the angle and mounting point on the lower section when time permits  As for the lid, I'm looking at going a "cap", instead of a flat lid to hide the fixtures a bit
