Just a suggestion, this time we really need to get our sh!t together and do a decent group photo. I am pretty sure we have the best attendance in Australia for Stagea cruises and we need to have proof! If we are going to do the dam run there will be plenty of opportunities.

So, if you are in WA and own a stagea, make sure you come along, even if you don't post here that often!

Lee the trader hahah, i new he was lookin at getting rid of it but didnt know if he was or not, i suppose he got an evo like he said he wanted?

i was meant to take him for a run in my stagea a while ago but shit went bad before i got a chance ;)

i havent even seen him on msn in ages, he must have better things to do :)

i am not online much anymore either, i am out and about these days doin other stuff and i dont have the opportunity to get on the net at work.

anyway let us know the final details and ill be there for a look and a chat to ya all :D

hahahah he is not a trader...he got another turbo, but your guess is incorrect :) :) you will never guess actually :)

yeah i offered him seats in the stagea if he didnt want to bring his new car :)

hahaha so 'doing stuff' whats the next project your working on ;)

yep should have a confirmed date by this weekend :) will be good to catch up with everyone again :)

got a couple of new toys to play around with and i havent actually touched my stagea in about 4 weeks to be honest, im losing motivation again from all these setbacks. should be running in about a month or so if im lucky (which i never am :laughing-smiley-014: )

sorry for getting the thread offtopic :)

cheaper alternatives to real cars ahaha, remote control monster truck (traxxis revo 3.3) and a schumacher nitro fusion onroad remote control car that does 100kmh+

been playing with the old mans helicopter too (electric one not petrol) as well and its rather difficult to fly

so what cars Lee got?

Puuuuhhhhhlllllleeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaasssssssseeeeeeeee?????????? :O

the extra detail definately sucked me in :D:P i would hate to think how much fuel the stag would use on the trip over :D

another good cruise is to head up to mundairing and stop off at Little Ceasers Pizza! ( for a late lunch early dinner)

do you ( stagea drivers ) ever plan country trips? ie to dwellingup or whatever?

camping trips etc are good cause you can get on the booze and not have to worry about driving anywhere.

we would need a third mortgage then...2 stageas to fuel up :)

I could probably dig up receipts for an estimate if I got motivation, Brisbane to Kal but. dunno if that is the same. Anyway it's not the gas it's the meals & accom/showers/bed that screw the moths outta the wallpaper.

Cheers GW :):) oops

Hah I haven't been to mundairing for a while but last time I went I got freaked out by the road, and the steep descent on each side.. Seemed like a 5-10m drop on each side.. The creaky old bus I was in didn't make it any better. I've got to say that is a far way away to get some pizza :) As much as I do like pizza...

i drove my 260 stagea back from brisbane to perth and i think it cost about 650 in fuel but that is doin 130/140 most of the way, running it on bp ultimate and payin $1.68 and $1.63 a ltr at two stops. It was about another 500-600 for two people for food/accomadatuion etc. and this was in march 07

    • You've just discovered a really good reason to tell yourself, yes, I do need to buy an aftermarket ECU. Put the MAF in the bin. Slap in the new ECU and have a think about what turbo sounds you prefer.  Do you want a 90's style BOV wooosh? Do you want a hektik tsututututu?  Mate, can't go wrong. Just gotta get that ECU and the world is your oyster. 
    • Hi. Iam just curisou about this topic. I saw this video. It is about Greddy Type FV2. I know that BoVs are about that sound but how and when to use it? I read some topic here and from what i have understand on stock RB with MAF there will be some "problems" if you use this BoV? It vents the air in to the atmosphere and the MAF on stock car needs this air back in to the intake and not out? Or is it wrong? If so...i saw you can put some adaptor to circule air back...but does that not "loose" that sound? I saw another BoV from Turbosmart and it has two "exhaust" like ports? One is for the stock tubing for letting air back and one is for "sound" and let the air in the atmosphere? Can someone please explain? This is the Greddy one:  And this is the Turbosmart.     THANK YOU!! EDIT: So i read about this topic some more and i if i understand that correctly: That Greddy can function either like BoV or 100% Bypass valve? And that Turbosmart is what they called hybrid so you can adjust what and how many air can be vented out or back in? Is this right? THX!
    • That dirty voltage drop is the culprit I suspect 
    • i cant get them all in 1 screenshot unfortunately as i just dont know how to move things around tbh, but they are all from the same log and the line crosses at the same point for all of them
    • It's about time I start work on my sun tan. So I knocked up a few parts that will all combine together to become my new power steering reservoir. Now just to produce an abundance of UV and IR rays while melting a heap of bits of alu to become one... Well, that's after I put one more hole in it for the return line to plumb to. It likely won't be this weekend, as Sunday I'm meant to be in doing some last minute stuff to the AMG race car, and the weekend after will be filled with non my Skyline stuff, followed by Bathurst 6 hour. So I don't expect to get to melt metal for at least 3 weeks.   I also managed to stuff up and start cutting the hole for the res to pump pipe on the wrong side of the line... It means instead of the lines being nice and tight against the inner guard, they'll be out off the guard.    The size of it means I should end up with about 1.8L of power steering fluid, and still have space for another half a litre before it reaches the overflow/breather. This is wayyyyyyy more capacity than factory, which should help keep Powersteer oil temps lower, and the design hopefully allows it to prevent any aerated oil being able to makes its way down to the bottom as it'll have a couple of baffles and some hopeful trickery to force air bubbles away from the bottom.
