Tangles

Lots of cars..... great turn out, well done to the organisers. I joined at end of expressway @ around 2.10pm, made our way down to victor, nice cruise. Little Coen in the booster-seat in my Stagea was sad that he didnt get to see the Clysdales, but he loved watching all the 'race cars gojng super-fast'. Noticed my tyres were low of pressure when overtaking the Porche, lol, handy having AWD tho when boosting (off camber bend)!! Had to leave @ 4pm when we left the carpark, had a nice cruise back to Mpht Vle staying behind a black R32 gtr. Makes me want to invest in a Stagea RS260 Autech GTR..... hmmm. Top turn out, lots of nice cars & drivers for sure.

lol Im going 2 make the effort...... just met up with hr32 & let him borrow my afm (we're not sure about the wiring, tho - you would have come in handy!), so.... plus the wife seems a bit better, lol oh well next time cubes.

Not sure myself, with family & all that... will play it by ear tho. -Soz - If Im up for it (Im very tired & the wife is VERY cranky; newborn was awake a lot last night, basically means I gotta be on tip-toes today by the looks of things!), well, I'll be in that weird shaped 5-door 'skyline' joining the proccession @ mpht vle LOL

Dark smoke my standard wheels, black bonnet, suspension kit... yes, would look nice indeed. Better sell the bike!

5 seater no probs about that - just ask 3InTheBack, with 3 booster seats in the back lol! Ive only got 2 booster seats.... spare room directly behind me for the seat to go as far back as possible (will extend the seat rails soon). 2m tall, so......! Great family wagon, no doubt about that.

Ive got a silky white pearl S1, so I reckon with a carbon bonnet with air-release grills would look REAL nice. Wish I had photoshop...... to see what it'd look like.

AC that sounds like the plan..... IF I can ever save some dosh, Id grab a RS260 next (sell the wifes Daewoo), so we'd have the Series 1 RS4 auto for when the knee is sore, and the Series 1 RS260 for more 'spirited' driving. Two Stagea's, I can only dream, right? Wrong..... lol if DS can then so can I!!!

Wow - is that common for ppl to go across to KI in a jetski? sounds "intresting"..... do you travel along the ferry route for "just in case" something goes wrong? Hhhm, jetski. Sounds like fun.

Yeah recoil is a bitch - I fully practised the Support guns, have the highest recoil, and once you master that, meh, recoil aint a problem.... start at upper chest and end up with headshots. BOOM Headshot! Go goon >> clan!! rofl

Im into Day of Defeat: Source, lucky me got into a clan and now enjoy the odd clan-war... awesome. If you play that say g'day to goon >> Tangles. Started BF2 a little last month (MajorTangles), but they are the only 2 online games Ive played.

Hey, just a 'interest' thread... who here luves some good techo? All I listen too...... Here is a site 4 yas if you like live sets.... great value for money. www.djsets.co.uk Ive got around 200hrs now of live sets, from Carl Cox, ATB, Yves Deruyter, Blank & Jones, Gabriel & Dreisden, Infected Mushroom, and others. btw: Im into trance; Yves Deruyter absolutely rocks; its cranking right here atm! :lol:

McDonalds..... *shudder* My kiddie is at a b'day party atm (10am) at Hungies, thats just insane, eating that cr*p when not even hungover!!!! btw: funny

YES me too, for a Series 1! Series 1 stagea, 1997 build Adelaide SA 5000

ROFL!!! Frisbee? wf? hahaha, better bring the dog then too!! Ha, she fits just fine in the Stagea wagon - try doing that in a Coupe! Kidding.... No, just me & the kiddie. Anyways, if I blow the knee, can always take Monday off work, lol!

OH NO! Not the dreaded footy!! lol I used to play a hell of a lot, like train 5 nights a week & play a couple of games on the weekend, Sthn League & Sth Adelaide. But after 7 knee surgeries. due for my 8th, and I make a point of keeping away from the footy - I must be mentally unstable! (yes, it still does cut me up inside that I cant even run, let alone have a kick2kick anymore). But hey if you have a dob & see a 2m big fella climbing over ya back dont be too concerned..... I'll only hurt myself! Again! lol, meh, the knees are shite anyways so what do I care if I ruin them some more? If Im coming (with my 2.75 yr old) I'll be waiting Sth Rd @ Mpht Vale, at around 1.40pm. In my 'skyline wagon'.

I paid $250 for my Z32 afm, so thats definately the going rate.... well worth the dollars, unless youve got ~$450 to spend on a new item.

Hey wildcat, Very nice indeed. Well done on the purchase of THE FAMILY CAR, yes that means that YOU can drive it too!! lol Tell hubby we all said so........ Off topic, sorry, FunkyMonkey, do you work at Jspec? Also, do you happen to play DayofDefeat:Source?? Came across a funkimunki on there the other night & thought it 'could' be you!

Checked out the RB20 turbo sticky thread (ie dynographs etc) in the forced induction area - to get good power they're all using Z32 AFMs, or a VQ45 afm. So if you want to borrow my RB25 unit, no worries, but better off purchasing a Z32 unit in the future....... plus a massive twin turbo setup, etc etc lol!

Thats something Im not sure about, at all... sorry. To be honest, Id rather not 'sell' the unit in case I ever get defected for my Z32 unit. Im hoarding my spare parts for "just in case". But more than welcome to 'borrow' it mate, to help you out for a few weeks, no problems there. If the RB25 unit fits, then so would a Z32 afm? That being said, the Z32 is obviously the best choice for further tuning mods, I was near maxing out my RB25afm at only 140Awkw (was 4.95V, max is 5.15V?). The Z32 afm lets you tune the beast just that little bit more lol! Now Im safely at 160Awkw with plenty of scope for more tuning when I (can afford to!) add on the hiflow turb'. Maybe send an email about RB20's running a Rb25/Z32 afm, to Sydneykid, Cubes, Paul33, or R31Nismoid, or someone who knows their stuff?

YO - I got one a standard Rb25 unit, I put in a Z32 item recently Im in Morphett Vale....... email me if ya need.

As soon as I read it, I thought "running slightly rich". Its all good...... great excuse to do the SAFC or similar!

Meh - you're all wrong Skyline 'alternative', in my english, means Skyline 'family' still. I mean, why walk away from a good thing? Therefore Id grab the Nissan Stagea RS260 Autech GTR. Its the go, affordable too.

mmm, no1 in Adelaide knows what a damn Stagea is, so, I'll never be spotted. lol but then again I keep the beast locked up & she doesnt see any sunshine, so that doesnt help..... mind you, she gets HEAPs of looks when out & about.. ie you can see em thinking wtf is THAT?

EBAY!!! You can find everything on ebay. Search via worldwide (Super ITC, SITC, etc) - they come up fairly regularly, but I was lucky enough to find a BRAND NEW IN BOX unit!! And only paid $220US for it as well including shipping from USA to Adelaide, whereas 2ndhand units sell for near the same price. Now trying to save for a hiflow with GT30 internals..... but havent found one on ebay as yet, lol

Yah - front cut is the go - but budget say 10-12k...... just in case. ie, 15yr old engine, rebuild, etc etc. BUT - nothing wrong with the auto. It does its job, and I am SO over a manual now, just aint needed in full-on city traffic Mon-Fri. Then again I cant remeber the last time I could drive a manual, Im even too blody big to drive a manual-landcruiser properly - never enough leg room. Meh, bloody BFG's.
