I was wondering if anyone in SA would be able to show me there stagea or know of any dealer in adelaide that has them?

Just lately i've realised that the R34 really is pointless as there is nowhere to drive. All it really does is go to work and back. And the closest road with any corners is about 50 km away.

So i am seriously considering getting rid of the r34 and going to a series 2 stagea. Mostly with the missus now it will be useful for surfing. Being able to carry stuff and what not.

So give me a hollier if you can help out or know of anyone that can.

Some of you know me a bit as i'm from victor harbor.

Thanks

It's silver 5 speed manual, 57xxx k's on it now. Got it at 41xxx.

Just got new tyres on saturday. Lovely car just don't think it's what i need or want anymore.

Is it 4door or 2door?

Mt brother is interested in buying a 4door, dependant on price.

nah not braggin at all mate - fact is the Stagea's are awesome cars. I reckon I'll never have a problem with authorities and mine. If I had 40k spare for a second car (less sale of current 10k 2nd car) Id grab our second Stagea in a flash (RS260 Autech of course)............. use the auto RS4 for weekday useage and the RS260 for weekends.

as it is, my RS4 has 160awkw at the moment, fully sorted, and Im very happy with that, what an awesome car, but it'll have 200awkw hopefully within the next year (putting my last 4k onto it for brakes & turbo&tune & autowork, and that'll be the end of the mods).

mate - would love to see your RS260 sometime.

I havent had my 260 dynoed yet but am hoping to get the chance soon as ive already upgraded the clutch and have fitted high flow manifolds, dump pipes and the rest of the system to go with it, so without touching anything else the boost has jumped from 7 to 14psi and has given a noticable increase. Next on the list is turbo upgrades, not sure which way to go yet as the car is my daily driver, but ive been told that a set of N1 turbos that will bolt straight on have the ability to push the power to 300 at the wheels, so thats something im looking into, as a daily i dont think id want any more than that. My 32 has 220rwkw and thats enough of a handful to drive everyday, so i think 300 at all 4 should prove fun enough! If i feel the need to go stupidly fast ill jump on the Suzuki GSXR1000 i just bought, im still running it in and cant take it over 7k revs, but for now im not worried bout going over that cos its fast enough upto 7k let alone hitting power band! lol!

Thanks Madaz, they are some fun toys thats for sure!

As far as the running in im going by what the manufacturer has told me, i no from previous rebuilds on cars that to let them work is good as long as there not labouring too hard, but apparently thats not the case with a bike from what the service guys told me, but its something ill definitely look into as i dont want to end up with any problems after how much ive spent on it! :D

      r34's love to squeal

      By Nizzy_R34 · Posted

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
