Spotted a silver R32 GTSt going past the KFC on Best Road in Seven Hills.

Forgot to mention that I spotted a silver or champagne coloured V35 sedan parked on Church Street in North Parramatta around 9pm. It was near the Indian restaurant parked on the footpath.

Nice buy, Corey, and welcome aboard! That grill isn't standard (or a DAYZ one), BTW.

NO!!! Okay, maybe - but it's not just up to me...

LAST DAY TO GET SUBMISSIONS IN!!!

Spotted XMetal in his newly-purchased s1 (with s2 tail-lights - I want) at the Central Coast meet.

Bump for SK or Matt. Please update us on pricing, for the benefit of all! Thanks

Spotted Moanie actually surfing SAU!!!

lol, Brycey's turned into a ricer since he got his R34 front on his car...

Here's the front part of my console: The other two cup holders are under the flip-out lid next to the handbrake:

Mine has the manual console, from an s2.

My car still has the cup holders in place, and it doesn't interfere with the shifter.

Spotted a silver s2 R33 turning off Powers Road onto Station Road in Seven Hills around 5pm.

Yep, NSW rules are very different. Just one of the differences: we need to do roadworthy tests every year unless you buy a brand new car, in which case you're exempt for the first 3 years.

Pulsar Fury, Dale? No such thing... BTW, I still keep seeing bloody blue N15s everywhere I travel across Sydney.

As far as the PM I got from Matt, all the other prices are still the same. Only the prices for the shocks have changed - I think he mentioned that they're now the same rates as R32 GTR, as they ride better.

Stupid me forgot about Stamp Duty.

Did they give you a break-up of the costs involved? I know rego is roughly $2-300 plus the Green Slip, so what was the rest for?

Really? Is this for a newly-rego'd car? If it is, I can't help you, sorry - I bought my car from an owner who lives in NSW already too. Ouch

This thread, MX? http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/M3...cs-t192998.html It's from Stag250, and he states that he believes the turbo IS the same as the RB25 units in s1 and s2 C34's.

Congrats on the sale, Alex! Hope you're not going to desert us now that you no longer own a Stagea. BTW, what did you buy as a daily, if you don't mind me asking?

Yeah, I know that! I just figured I'd let you know what the deal was. I wish it was a lot easier, that's for sure! I agree, if they can work that out (and here's hoping - fingers crossed) then yours shouldn't be a problem either.

Name-calling is a bit over-the-top, Nathaniel, so please remove it and think before you type. It's far from nice, and if you hadn't added any info on where Silver-Darkside should look, nor would it be helpful.

There's a few things to overcome with the Stageas, Liz: We're trying to use R34 PFC's on s2 R33 engines, Liz, which is where one of the issues is. The s1 Stagea ECU, even though it *probably and most likely* runs an R33 program, has an R34 plug, which is problem two. There seems to be a few different parameters run on different pins between R33 and R34. The Stageas have AWD, and in that regard they're the only RB25-engined Nissans to use a turbo motor and AWD together (whether it's the R33 or R34 Neo). Even the s2 Stagea, with the R34's Neo motor, needs mods to the PFC wiring to sort out issues with traction control and the engine light staying on. That list is the stuff that I'm aware of so far, so who knows what else will pop up. It HAS been done (I think Millenium Motorsport in Qld were amongst the first in Australia, but they were and maybe still are unwilling to share the information), so there's no reason why Duncan and I won't eventually be able to have s1 Stageas with the R34 PFC - it's just a matter of time and having all the correct information together to make it all happen. Back on topic, I'm still keen for a run on the dyno, even with the standard ECU still in my car.
