from what ive heard, you cant have anything in the car when it is getting transported...is this true?

That is true.... I transported my Stagea from Brisbane to Adelaide via Adtrans; could definately NOT have anything in the car.

Bummer, Ive had a local company tow/crack my old Cel's front bar so just warning you.

I hope it all works out for you though, dont let my comments scare you.

Let us know :O

Yeah we probably don't need to know thanks Alex :) , all we can do is wait and see, having it smashed a second time before you get it would be too much though I think!

GREAT NEWS!!!!!!!!!!

The insurance claim on my front bar has just been authorised WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It saves me $900 that would otherwise have come out of my own pocket

...now i just have to decide what to do with the spare $900 that ive got sitting around.

hmmm.....front mount?....power fc?.... BOV?....aftermarket grille and eyelids?.... what to do?

today was the day, ive had an extremely busy day running around picking up cars and pulling off wheels and taking them to get tyres then putting the wheels and tyres back on the car, im exhausted and i only got a chance to take a couple of photos...

...my new stagea while i was "TRYING" to get it onto the car trailer (oh and thats my grandad in the photos if you were wondering)

Fantastic! How much better does it look in Australia! (strange thing to say) But yeah, it looks hot, can see how there were issues with the front bar and transport.

You must be really stoked to be in possession!

Enjoy it

Luke

edit: pics were working...

Arh, you were just resizing, nice move!

yeah, as much as i love my camera phone, the photos it takes are too big to post and still have people with dial-up be able to load the page

...still havnt figured out how to turn on the foglights in my front bar yet.

Congratulations! When do you get it registered? I assume that is why you are putting it on the trailer.

if all goes well i'll have it registered on thursday...fingers crossed

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
