I might as well join in on this thread, Was looking at a stagea for a while, but ended up buying a gts4 from sydney with an rb25 conversion. First turbo car for me, so will probably ask stupid questions too but will try and keep them to a minimum :)

G'day Max & Chris! Welcome aboard! I was going to post something like...

"Ladies and Gentlemen,welcome aboard SAU Airlines(Skylines...), Flight 30,31,32,33,34. This is not your Captain,and we expect your trip to be rapid,enthralling,eventful and fun. If you look out to your right rearview mirror,you'll see objects getting left behind. I'm not expecting any trouble on our journey,but always have your seatbelt fastened in case of any unexpected turbulence from authorities,rednecks or keyboard warriors. Our estimated cruising speed should not be bragged about,nor divulged for the same reasons as turbulence,however feel free to move around your cabin to enjoy your ride. At any time during ownership,please feel free to call on SAU with any questions or concerns you may have. Enjoy your trip,and thanks for boosting with SAU 'Lines..."

But then I considered that a bit corny and...oh,wait. Was that the voices in my head,or did I really tap that out?!? LOL!!!

Arr they was just ridin' shotgun, keeping the trucks off the a$$ of those slow old unreliable 32's. It's also the best place to pick up all the spare parts that vibrated off the recycled tokyo taxi's. Only trouble is your windscreen gets covered in oil from all the leaks.

And thats the gratitude you show them................next time when you break down out of mobile coverage don't ask a 33 to help, they'll all be at the weighbridge having coffee!!

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
