Stolen! It has never been registered!! It just got off a boat from Japan and it couldn't get on that boat if it was stolen (de-registration papers) so yes, waste of time!

Nice work RTA!

Agreed!

all did not go well on tuesday...however, i put in the 500HP fuel pump, and am putting the new platinum spark plugs in tomorrow morning. if all goes well, it will be rego'd on monday

CAR IS RUNNING!!!

fuel pump was almost dead ie not flowing enough,

and the major problem was a relay on the ignition coil circuit decided to croak it.

...makes it hard to diagnose the problem without a wiring diagram.

but the most important part of all is... its all systems go for rego on monday!

i put the walbro 255L/hr pump in, it was similar to the factory pump other than the one end which had the hose and the plug positions swapped around.

still managed to secure all of the clips in the cradle it sits in, other than one of them.

yeah car is registered, and constantly being driven :D

i sure am going through a lot of fuel... ill let everyone know how many k's i get out of the first tank in the petrol thread.

my stagea no longer has a camo front bar :):):)

ill change the pic in my signature whenever i get around to it :P

i picked it up yesterday from the smash repairers.

i also forwarded both of the invoices for repair/painting of my front bar to KIPS and i got an email back saying that they will pay me next week WOOHOO!!!!

  • 1 month later...

well its taken ages but i finally got the money from the insurance claim through KIPS today, i was beginning to get a bit worried for a while there, i didnt want to have to cop the $900 repair bill.

God Damn - Im so stoked that I havent had ANY troubles whatsoever with my Stagea (well, besides dills drilling into my wiring loom when the cdstacker was installed under the passeneger front seat).

touch wood hey! :P

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
