got my stagea running today and it runs awesome, nice and lumpy idle, starts making boost at just over 2k rpm and 130rwhp at just under 4000rpm (revlimit at the moment). cant wait for the real tune and some real boost :happy:

happier than a pig in shit thats the motor runs sweet and no problems :) few gearbox and other issues but thats not a big deal over all

cheers

Brad

cheers guys and the screamer pipe doesnt even have a use at the moment being under 4psi of boost (max rpm i can do is 4k)

yes i built the motor, theres a thread in the forced induction section from my old nickname "stagezilla" and its called "building the jun 2.7L stroker" or something like that, hundreds of pics of the build and the dramas of it all, but welllll worth it in the end :D

thanks

Brad

130rwhp... are you sure its a 2.7 JUN kit? JOKE!

My 918.5cc has over 150rwhp hahahaha LOL

again, a JOKE. Please dont flame me, just some good natured ribbing.

Anyways - I give you the FULL FIST :D

Best of luck with the running-in mate, god Damn thats SO hard to do. You want to gas it some, but yet you know you cant. I ended up going on some real long rides just to get the first 1000kms up.

Once I could take it above 6000rpm after that 1000km mark, god damn was I impressed, one of the best days of my life was when the beast was finally let loose in anger..... bejesus that day still gives me the sweats...... and it just keeps getting better!

Awesome work, well done.

Mine was after a full-on (expensive) rebuild with all the trimmings etc, just like Cruiseliner. Problem was Id been riding it for ages before hand ringing its neck, then all of a sudden you need to pussyfoot around for a while, when all you want to do is find out what it can do....! Was hard as!

Good luck with the riding mate.

thanx for the support, i cant rev it past 4k anyway cause the revlimiter is set to 4k and it just bounces off it if i try and rev it. goes really really good even upto 4k it pulls pretty good. its back off the road as of this afternoon, the bloody diff is clunking as the shim thicknesses were not setup properly when i installed it 12 months ago and its annoying the shit out of me. diff is out and ready to be checked tommorow after work and then reinstall it.

next is the transfer case which is whinning like a bitch and is even more annoying, so that will come out this weekend possibly or maybe after i do the 1000km.

done 160km or so, so far. i drive another work vehicle so i dont drive until later in the arvo after work so i dont do many km's. i wanna sort these problems b4 i go racking up too many km's and causing long term damage to the diff/gearbox/etc.

cheers again

Brad

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      The cam I am actually putting in (a few posts up) is actually smaller than my current one. At least duration/overlap wise. All the chop stuff I hear just sounds like an engine running badly, because it is. I then envision driving it around in 1st gear and being massively sad about it bucking to the beat of said chop. There is an idle video of someone with a similar cam floating around the internet, but mine is a custom cam (so is his) so it'll never be the same, plus the fact exhausts are entirely different. What I want to do is put some bullet mufflers/race mufflers in to replace a couple sections straight pipes that currently replace the two extra cats that I don't need. But this is even further down the line!

      I can tell you now, when the bracket that the little hydraulic ram attaches to snaps, with a subframe, and V8 from an AMG C63 on it, it sounds like someone letting shotgun off right beside you. It leaves your ears ringing, and a huge thankfulness that you never ever put a body part under something heavy that's only supported by a hydraulic lift...

      Water leaking into the rear trunk

      By Neostead2000 · Posted

      Still not a guarantee fix. I used a high quality butyl-mastiq (the black goo that's not really silicone nor polyurethane, same stuff they use from the factory that just spreads out like melty cheese), and I still get lots of water on both sides of the trunk when raining or washing the car. I also suspect the factory spoiler rubber gasket might not be sealing well, so I'm thinking of adding a thin layer of grey silicone around the bolt holes on both sides and see if that's where it also leaks from. The biggest issue is that these cars don't come with a drain hole on each side like other coupes and hatchbacks.
