Hey All , I have a 99 series 2 stag tiptronic , it used to go alrite some one took it for test drive since then its not the same - cant use sterring shift light wont turn on atm i got A/T light Flashing 16 times / i didnt find 16 on the codes list lags like ass i believe its stuck in 3rd limp home mode ? have tried various methods of rectifying to no avail ... Read through the old posts about auto issues - tried reset ecu - 10 X on off - disconnect battery still not working - planning to get synth oil in the box ? any reccomendations would be awesome - im from melb northern suburbs any good auto places ? to do diagnostic - Roughly how much to fix ? Thanks in advance Regards S3cret

Hey all , finally fixed the misfire ... 6 new platinum's and a new set of coil packs engine is now.. Before when running on 4 cylinders and i used to take off it used to go as soon as u push the pedal like low down torque now it sits there starts to whoosh then slowly launches like transmission lag. Is there anyway to get it to go as soon as i put the foot down ? On 4 cylinders i was getting around 200km to 68L around $90 of Vpower now on 6 around 400Km to $90 anyway to get a good balance of power when you need it and economy .... my NA supra had good balance of power and fuel economy 450km to $70petrol I like the 0-60km rush gets you ahead in traffic - once it does get going it fly's 70-110 is fast wish i had a manual ... The A/T light flashes a few times guess it needs some new juice ... would be great to get some feedback on how to improve its take off and tuning . Id like to make it a sleeper/drifter as my daily drive.. My stags debadged and i was lined up next to a newish Volvo wagon blank stares as i took off from the cops directing traffic lol appreciate your feedback Regards S3cret

hey all , finally got the beast running - would be great to organise meet in city ? lygon st? chapel st? ackland st?

My uncle is in nagoya in japan and he has a parts shop in melbourne so im gonna ask him to buy me a set of splitfires from there im guessing id get them bit cheaper than here ones ive found on ebay are 500-600 & im not soo trusting they look like korea copies of japanese parts ive forwarded links anyone bought these? so like 70-100 dollars each kinda highway robbery dont ya think? if he can get cheaper and large quantity ill ask him to sell on ebay for less , one other question - how much do front rear brake pads cost ? are they available in australia or should i ask him to bring those too - ? yeah ive had the car less than a week - i think hell be back in melb b4 easter so yeah i dont wanna drive too much in this condition. Appreciate all your efforts Regards S3cret http://cgi.ebay.com.au/SKYLINE-R34-Stagea-...109212001r11606 http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Splitfire-Coil-Pack...0325129001r5870 http://cgi.ebay.com.au/YELLOW-JACKETS-COIL...=item25593f6ff5

thanks for reply mate , yeah i had a funny feeling that might be the case - coz when they opened the cover i saw numbers on the packs and i was thinking compliance dude was dodge and used mine and swapped for rubbish , does running car like shaking cause alot of damage ? yer ill place an order for coilpacks asap from japan regards S3cret

thanks for reply , yeah ill have a mechanic check over it - i just noticed an air ( woosh) sound coming from under the neo rocker cover im not a mechanic so i dont want to fubar it much more than it already is when i asked to have the plugs done they put all the things back in a hurry and i found 2 clamps undone , how much you recon for a sensor ? is it worth buying those yellow jackets or splitfire packs off ebay there selling like 500+ ? has anyone had any experiance with those ? hope to get shit sorted soon - i thought stageas were reliable daily drives supras dont give much headaches the forum is awesome and i really appreciate all the efforts

Hi all , I just bought a stagea - i used to have a supra before this . Its RS rear wheel drive NEO auto turbo 1999 GTT model HKS air filter tein coilovers stainless twin jasma exhaust , was sitting at a compliance place for 6 months its nice lookin car done like 76K kms clean interior has rust under the mirrors have to get fixed , and faded brakes need to get machined and buy pads , had jvc head unit installed front and rear speakers need to be replaced main problem is engines shaking feels like running on 3 cylinders ( is this missfire?) when i bought it , got plugs changed platinum bosch oil magnatec 10-40W oil filter genuine usual serviceable items i switch on starts shaking burns though petrol like crazy 68L in 120km first few days would shake then heat up and all ok I put in moly can injector cleaner second time i fill up 68L in 250 Km , reved out to try n clean up , cleaned inside exhaust for soot and stuff , looked over all pipes and hose clamps for boost leaks , ive been reading all notes about issues off your discussions disconnected afm and plugged in , tried to reset ecu - battery disconnect and left door open , u can smell shell V power straight outta exhaust it gets damn hot goes brownish from silver , when you turn car over gives fault TC and SLIP , when running normal no lights display on the dash , some pages suggest leaking injectors , faulty coilpacks, AAC too much air in intake ? boost leaks ? im not a mechanic how can i test these theories ? any decent mechanics in melb specialising in Neo motors? you can hear the car spool up and breathing with the blow off valve kicking when u get off the accelerator but when shaking it doesnt move much - loss of power up hill and take ages to take off id be happy if the car done 400Ks to 68L of Vpower and runs smooth , would really like to hear your ideas and what i should do anyone else had these issues when they bought a stagea - what are basics for preventative maintanaince and troubleshooting? would love to attend stagea meet and see other stags on the road , if i could get your feedback would be much appreciated regards S3cret
