What Have You Done To Your Stagea Lately?

As the original topic has disappeared, I thought I'd start a new thread.

My new wheels, R34 GTR rims with 235/45/18's.

New rocker cover gaskets go in today at ERD, and hopefully there is no leak in my power steering system.

i installed my nismo instrument cluster, and helped craig with his car.

the IM auction didnt mention the cluster was for a non-TV/GPS, so no info regarding fuel consumption etc. not that i used it a lot!

gotta find time to install suspension bits and get my tyres put on the nismo wheels!!

PLEASE POST WHAT YOU DONE TO CAR & NOT CHAT CRAP

Stop yelling at everyone & it'll all be fine Chuckie.

Might even be time to take some of your own advice.

Cheers, Dale.

Over the last couple of days I have straightened and reinforced my reo bar and given it a shiny new lease on life, reinforced my jacking points and made new points for jack stands to make life easy, deleted my rear wiper ( looks won against legalities) steam cleaned my whole interior, repaired the hole some butcher cut for my fmic, cleaned and repaired every electrical terminal I could reach and in general fixed every annoyance I could think of. Tomorrow is cleaning day, then a new clutch, some panel repairs and a nistune.my wallet hurts :|

i thought that the gizzmo EBC came with a built in turbo timer, it was one of the main reasons that i want it instead of a turbosmart eboost street series????

Need to drive Andy's car too... going to do turbo and dump now! also picked up a tuned ECU on IM... bit of a gamble, but its programed to run 1.1bar of boost, 7,000rpm rev limit and speed cut removed... not sure what else has been changed and even if it will work... but its more power time! :)

So it was you bidding on that ecu, good pickup. It would work well with a p1ggyback, what are you planning?

Yeah, gizmo seem to be the go. i ran one of their dual stage shift lights on my bike, easy to set up and worked perfectly.

currently trying to get a stagea wiring diagram so i can fit it up in the car. comes in very handy when the red mist decends and all brain function goes out the window

how much have you spent now ?

im actually considering selling mine now. as i cant drive it for work..and its becoming an endless money pit i cant see the end of. turbo highflow and plenum spacer is my limit. then i might sell mine mid next year. (oh and 280nismo cluster)

300zx wagons arent the choice of cars to mod imo. (m35s)

if you disagree .. talk to craig .. lol

or scottys mrs.. lol

Yep that was me :) My first yahoo auction experience!

I have an SAFC II hooked up now with no tune, but will see what works? any thoughts or recommendations? maybe something like you have scotty.

I will talk to you about dump soon - Spoolin (Chris) and I both need something

    • New R34 owned here (from the US) and found a gem, '98 GTT with ~6k miles, super clean & completely stock. When shifting there's no grinding, shifts smooth, etc. The concern I have are 2 things: 1) Only in 2nd and 3rd... when maintaining a slower speed (in traffic as an example) as I let off/on the gas, the shifter will slightly move and vibrate. If the clutch is engaged, none of this happens. It's not bad, but enough to feel like something isn't necessarily right. 2) This mainly happen in 4th or 5th... the shifter slightly bounces up and down, almost like it's riding on unbalanced tires (and I do think the tires are unbalanced as I get a little of that bounce feel at higher speeds, which is maybe why it only happens in 4th/5th). Lastly, and sorry for this noob question but I want to work on this car myself, can someone teach me some on these manual transmissions? Like servicing them, best products to use, etc.; would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
    • Coilovers aren't even the first step. Bushes, subframe position and alignment, HICAS elimination, adjustable upper arms and traction arms in order to dial out understeer. All these things need/deserve attention first. ARBs (There's no such thing as a swaybar. Please, everybody, stop calling them that) are useful if you want to limit spring stiffness. Otherwise you can control body roll with springs. Spring and damper rates are a function of road surface, speed and usage. There is no solution that works for all cases.
    • Define "nothing". Is the starter spinning but not the engine? Engine turning but not firing? If the engine is turning but not firing, then you are missing either fuel or spark. You need to find whichever has gone missing.
    • Shitbox Tiguan updates, got the APR OTS tune put back on (no charge for it to be removed/added back), didn't want to just come in just for that (not a fan of wasting people's time for nothing) so I purchased an APR dog bone insert. The boys at German Performance Garage said they would fit it for free too since they had 1x hoist free. Now that's service you don't normally get from most workshops. Anyhow, tune back on, snow grate pulled out, dog bone insert back in and not going to lie, a few smiles when I nailed it around the industrial area heading back onto the M7. Amayama also said 1 to 2.5 month wait for the RB25DE heater hose, yeah why not, car has been off the road for nearly 3, what's a other 2.5?
    • Hmm I'm going to approach this from the other side... What is the car doing that you don't like or what would you like the car to do that is currently isn't doing (handling wise that is)
