  1. Toyota punting the Nissan Deltawing out of the race early.
  2. Ch10 now, was on vipbox this morning. Different channels - don't know what 10 is, but vipbox had eurosports or something.
  3. Owgasm knows where its at. Get the hair dryer out. Heat the whole area up very well, and give it a push from the back. Should pop right back out, but you might have to use some force. Will cost $0.03 in electricity (est)
  4. Far out! hope everything is good. Anyone watching the streams of the LeMans 24hrs? shattered the deltawing got put out early. Never was competitive, but would have been good to watch it go round.
  5. Dale, I'm glad your happy with it! No worries about the beers - thanks for getting me out of that sticky situation.
  6. I don't read Japanese, but I believe its just the QC sticker. Like a "tick" from the quality control employee, with the stamp. I found a few OK's on a Honda I used to own. Someone I'm sure someone will be able to translate.
  7. Spotted a black R34, red P plates parked up on the side of Yanko road today. Looked to come off second best to something.
  8. Looks the goods mate. If I were you, I'd find something a good detailer would recommend as a paint sealer or similar product, and get it on them right away. Will help get the grot off. There are some not so good products out I've heard, so consult a good detailer. The old jap playz tyres hey, good for skids!
  9. And some grounding points behind the dash too, but they generally throw a can bus error code. Good luck mate!
  10. Go nuts then. Doesn't mean I'm going to do it with my car. Yes, I know how tow balls are rated. Look, I'm not trying to be a prick. I just don't think its an awesome idea on a car that wasn't designed for it. We know the subframe cracks, we know overloading causes it. If you plan to tow big and long, please make sure you have an external tranny cooler, and you have seen to the turbo banjo, and the turbo is in tip top condition. I know another Stagea (C34) drivers been through 3 china turbos, probably because he tows a car with it! Maybe even get a radiator upgrade.
  11. Pat, I'm going to take pity, only cause I expect this to be closed very soon. Welcome to SAU. Go into the forced induction section, and look at the rb25 dyno thread. Choose what power you want, and go for the best set up in there. Forum has a search function, best advice is to learn how to use it. Every question you have about your car will have been answered at some stage. There are literally 1000s of these kinds of threads. So when it's closed, don't take it personally, but it just clogs up the forum. And extractors? Me thinks you should read the forced induction introduction too. There are lots of very knowledgable people here, but they don't like answering the same question every second day. Enjoy your stay, and enjoy the car.
  12. The VIN is stamped, just not the whole oversized number that Australia gives. It's on the firewall behind the motor, still easily visible. Crazy pedantic rules, different in every state probably.
  13. Subframe crack was never about the actual tow bar being mounted there. Thats a no-brainer. Its about weight distribution. More weight / load will inevitably go through the rear suspension, and thus, the subframe. Feel free to load up with 1500kg, and drive a five thousand kms. Then pronounce the myth busted.
  14. +1 Actually found that I did them up perfect last time with the gun. Could undo them by hand when required. Don't be scared by the rattle, make it your friend.
  15. Well, thought I should put something in here. Thought it was rbs but I saw a few cas too, so why not add mine. VQ35de in a m35 Stagea. Awd. Hks z33 turbo kit with some tweaks. Gt3037, 60mm external, 600cc, walbro, tuning with uprev, by DVS Jez. It's got about 200kw atw on a bit less than 6psi. Not super powerful, but it's a big ass wagon, and that's fun. Pretty much no lag whatsoever, as you can Imagine with 3.5 litres!
  16. Apparently the Mrs was spotted today in Carlingford. A R35 was driving beside her and gave her a hello toot
  17. I believe there are multiple part numbers for what is essentially the same part. Just so happens....
  18. Nobody can hear you scream in stagea for sale threads...
  19. No worries. Forgot to mention, they handle quite well if you get a few parts in them. Sway bars, castor bushes, your choice of springs shocks, and a bit of bracing will make a world of difference to the handling. Have a look through some of the threads about handling upgrades.
  20. It's going to tear your sump off first. I'd say after that the sender is not so important. Side of the pan, not the bottom.
  21. I think I've seen them mounted in the side of the pan. Can't quite picture the locations you've supplied, but I'd be wary because the valve body sits pretty snug in there. Better of in the pan of fluid I would have thought.
  22. Lol, tonnes of room to the brake master. Hope the engine mounts are stiff! Would be fun. What's the chassis like in those, stiff or soggy?
  23. Not anti fun at all, most of us love skids. But skids and speed off the streets. Most of us live in areas that imports are pretty heavily targeted by the authorities, and as a community we want to promote off street activities. Search YouTube for some SAU texi vids for and example. So when you just ask how to do skids, don't be suprised by the response! Most people reserve skids for kids with flat caps in commos. So, to the car. If you bought a 2.5 or 3.0 and trying to do skids, your a derp. If you bought a 3.5 then you have some options. You can go down the NA bolt on route. Exhaust, plenum spacer, z tube, maybe a tune if your rich. That might get you to skidville. Other options are turbo or supercharger kits. Best thing you could really do with a rwd, is a manual conversion. Just do it from a manual v35 wreck. Skids would be much easier, and more fun to drive. Don't worry about the brake wire cut, in NA cars it doesn't exist. Cheers Stagea Cuz.
