the grille lights are your high beams. am curious as to how it got rego without these working... Justin...

by spiking I mean that the boost control fluctuates. you'll get a peak value of course,but don't expect it to hold it steadily. $22 is a lot cheaper than $200 I agree,but it really depends on what you want to do. and yes,a lot of people use bleed valves,mosylt because they're lazy,they don't know any better,or because the don't want to spend the money on proper bost control. you can always afford to do things properly. you could afford to buy the car right? what difference is another few hundred dollars going to make? if you just want a few extra pounds,go for it and use the bleeder. if you want to tune for best ,and reliable power,you need to use an ebc. Justin...

yeah,it's not a bleeder,it's a needle valve. it works by restricting the airflow to the wastegate,as opposed to a bleeder which vents off a set amount of the incoming air. get an EBC. don't waste your time with cheap rubbish. you'll still get spiking with this thing,and they don't make the turbine spool up any faster. Justin...

looks good. I'll take a black leather gear knob. please pm me with payment details. Justin...

you're spot on mate,it's very close to 1deg. negative. who's suggested 0.5deg. neg? I run 1.2deg. negative in the rear of my car . Justin...

fair call. when I had an auto S14 years ago,I did my dyno runs with the shifter in D,with the OD off,and had a graph that went through both gears. the S2 stags don't have this problem,as they can be put into the tiptronic mode,and do the whole run in 3rd,regardless of load,it won't kick down. that's how my 154kw atw graph above was done. in third,in tiptronic mode. Justin...

don't you mean third? in my understanding comparative dyno runs need to be done in a 1:1 ratio,which would be 3rd in a stag auto. otherwise you're going to get inflated readings. Justin...

because this has taken so long is a big part of why I haven't paid for mine. when someone has received a S2 guide,I'll fork over my payment and join the queue. Justin...

seats have been sold. Justin...

Hi all, I have a pair of good condition,R34 GTT skyline front seats for sale. selling for $300 this week only. located in Sydney's east,can deliver locally by arrangement. am not willing to ship interstate due to size. if you're interested,please pm me,or call my mobile: 0418 663628 Justin...

word is that LPG is going to see a rise in it's excise rate as well in a few years time,so it might be a moot point soon enough anyway. Justin...

I haven't looked into gas very deeply,as it's never been an option that's particularly interested me,but as far as a conversion into a stagea goes,I believe it would be quite easy to get quite a large cylinder under the back of the car,without losing any boot space. the stagea runs a stagea-specific fuel tank behind the rear bumper. skylines and silvias run a saddle-shaped tank under their back seats,straddling the tail shaft. anyone who was seriously considering swapping to gas,may want to investigate the possibility of swapping the stagea's fuel tank to a skyline type under the back seats,and then removing the std tank,and using that huge area behind the rear bar for their gas cylinder. Justin...

the back seat is totally useless due to the hydraulic rams mounted inside of it, the rear suspension is just there for the ride,it doesn't contribute to the handling of the car any further than just keeping the sills off of the ground (provided it's dead flat ground of course,as there's almost zero ground clearance),the two piece bonnet makes it harder than std to work under there,and the boot will be full of pumps,amps and batteries,so it's useless as well. totally pointless exercise in my mind,but hey,I guess he enjoys it,so good luck. if cruising along really,really slowly by yourself or with one friend and flapping your back doors around in the air is something you think is worthwhile,go ahead and copy this retard. Justin...

I can read a bit of japanese,it's a wet carbon top layer,with FRP bracing. it's in black gel coat,and includes the bonnet support mounts. Justin...

I'd be interested in one with a reverse vent in the centre behind the radiator,and with two small vents in the corners near the strut tops. east bear make a carbon bonnet and an frp bonnet for stageas. check out powerplay's website for a couple of small pics. Justin...

Atmo or plumb-back? Justin...

have you checked the connector going into the ATTESSA ECU? it's possible it's gotten wet or something in the past,and has moisture trapped in it that causes connection issues when the car's cold. it could be corroded also. I'd be checking that out first. Justin...

Or even here in Sydney half the time. some of the kids at work have been trying to be cute of late,calling my car a volvo. I just laugh,and remind them of who's more likely to get pulled over. me in my 'volvo wagon' ,or them in their slammed swifts and integras,with chrome rims and loud exhausts... the car was recognised (more or less) in a maccas carpark last night though. sitting having a sundae on the way home late last night,four young guys walking out were looking at the car as they walked past. I overheard "I've never seen one of those before",followed by "yeah,GTR wagon...". he was closer than most. Justin...

so,in short,this unit puts more torque to the front,essentially increasing the car's understeer bias,making a car that has an oversteer tendency on accel more neutral right? what if the car behaves the opposite way? as in to much understeer on accel? can this work in the reverse to correct that? Justin...

I use a blitz dual turbo timer for my boost gauge,which is mounted on top of the column,behind the steering wheel. Justin...

it IS a big difference,providing you actually pay it. I got my rav racks for free,out of the warranty bin at clean up time. I have a heap of roof rack parts at home,including some rx330 aero racks. will try those on at some point as well. if they work,someone can have my rav racks if they need a set. Justin...

just for interest's sake,toyota rav 4 roof racks are a straight bolt on for stageas. I run a pair of ex-warranty rav racks on my S2. new from toyota they're about $280 a pair. Justin...
