Seeing everyone talking about the bad things with their Stagea made me think what people actually like about them. Pick only four though

1. Im the only one in my estate of 300 houses that has one.

2. Its a bit of a sleeper.

3. You can fit anything inside

4. The looks I get in it everyday.

That is all.

1. I can punch the accelerator and get instant responce, or drop it down an gear and mash the accelerator and be thrown back in my seat everytime.

2. It's such a beautiful car to drive, corners like it is on rails.

3. It is versatile. Can fit 2 kids bikes, 2 eskies full of food and drink, and 5 adults and still get up and go like it's coming out of a slingshot.

4. It looks like a volvo, so even when I have had the BOV on full atmo, (wake the dead setting) right next to a cop car, I still have not had anywhere near the attention I got when I did own my R33.

Electric seats (can't wait for winter to try the warmers)

CRUISE CONTROL

NEO engine

Tiptronic

4WD (another reason to welcome winter)

It's very unusual

The amount of people that actually read the badges and still shrug their shoulders.

Ah!, but it IS a Skyline. It was built in Factory 5, like All Skys, even going back to the Prince.

I love:

- The room

- 4WD

- Not everyone has one (although the other day there was mine and 3 others parked at work! All RS4's!)

- Build quality

- The look, with a nice kit and wheels.

- Price. They are fairly cheap in NZ compared to other wagons. They aren't 'cool' like Subarus or Legnums so are about 3 grand cheaper.

I think it is just a good all round wagon and the +'s outweigh the -'s overall.

The fact I can fit 6 person tent, camp gear, bar fridge, double air matresss, all the food and drinks, 2 dogs (Cattle dog and Labrador) and still travel in comfort. Also with all that gear, it pulled up any hill with ease!!!

Got a few people asking about the car...they are like WTF is this. :laughing-smiley-014:

      RB26 boost leak? limp mode?

      By niZmO_Man · Posted

      Remember our cars are 30+ years old so expect the rubber bits to leak. I'd go around your engine bay with a can of "start ya bastard" or similar and look for leaks. FYI I got my car 10+ years ago with the standard boost restrictor in place, I removed it when I got it and the car never had any issues since (besices a leaking manifold gasket). tl;dr- Look for leaks before proceeding.

      Never ending fuel pump drama

      That SSR is actually the same (or similar) as the Jaycar 100AMP SSR (which I use). They suggest the resistor to stop the SSR turning on when the ECU turns off (I believe). I personally don't use the resistor as I use the 5V output from the ECU to supply power to the SSR. I do however run a flyback diode, the old Haltech documentation was wrong too and didn't specify the fly back, I mentioned it to a few of their staff and they eventually added it in.

      Removing sump

      By elohim_imanu · Posted

      I did manage to do this without removing the engine or front cross member, but I had the advantage that the exhaust manifold was removed. I am not setup to support the engine from the top or remove it. 1. Loosen the engine mount nuts so they only have a nut of thread. If it is a manual, I think you have to remove the gearbox to engine support brackets. 2. Jack up the engine off the bottom idler mount. Jack it up till the end of the slot and nut on the mount. You need this clearance to get the pan out at the rear of the engine. 3.Break the sealant seal to sump. I found a oil pan separator tool helpful to get it started. 4. The oil pick up can be removed with the gap available.  5. The oil pan can be removed now. 6. Before assembling, do not apply sealant to the oil pick up area as your hand will rub it all off but apply to the other three and a bit sides. 7. It is a two man job to put the oil pan back, with the sealant, as you do not want it to touch anything and rub off. 8. With one person supporting the oil pan the other can fit the oil pickup 9. Apply the remaining sealant. This would be more difficult with the manifold or turbo in place, but I think it could be done. As you can see my sealant is a bit ugly, but good enough to seal. 10. Lift the sump up to the engine and bolt it on. We found it was easier to use two long guide bolts at each end to get it nice and aligned without touching.

      I find building an exhaust a really satisfying job! Looks nice!   Did you consider using an oval pipe to get the same cross sectional area but keep it above the chassis rail?
