The Sa Wasteland

[Damo_R34]

whilst playing with coilpacks etc, i noticed that r34's have 2 butterflies? 1 in the throttle body, obviously, but one that remains open, that sits (looking top down) just right of the TB. what controls that?

[kralster]

Possibly something to do with the TC if i recall correctly...

anyone know who sells a cheapish front/dump pipe combo ?

need one today for under $200 locally !!!

hey Mitch, ring around, wreckers dude. bound to find something

if you really get stuck, i have a stock dump you can take off my hands for next to nothing, and you'll just need to source a front pipe to match.

Ahh that makes sense.

[Carbon 34]

Yeah, I'm def not a fan of it.

Tho blue mesh would improve it.

[Damo_R34]

anyone got some JDM modified Stagea pictures they can chuck in Scandy's new thread? like, low, aftermarket guards/kit, awesome fitment etc etc

[Inline 6]

question, my car has no mesh at all.

could i 2 use this wonderful material, or would that be classed as style stealing maybe ill go midnight blue mesh

Probably not so good in the weight department though...

*needs hillclimb/track car*

halp?

[Damo_R34]

probably a 4wd/awd Rhys. Evo?

[rhys5169]

i wish cant afford an evo, i would <3 a evo5 stripped/caged

got around 15k for a weekend/track car (obviously change from that is prefferable but you get what you pay for) motorkahna/hillclimb/grip are my main goals, the odd skid day wouldnt be frowned upon

[Damo_R34]

R33 is pretty decent bang for buck, you can pick up one with some fairly decent mods for around the 15k mark. you can shove wide tyres on the rear for traction, throw in some adjustable arms, front sway bar, front and rear strut braces, half cage if you want to.

[rhys5169]

id stab myself in the neck before buying a 33, as cheap as they are now..... still would stab neck.

been lookin at:

32

s13

s14

180

id prefer one already set up for track use (built cars before, cbf doing it right now) so if possible cage/rims/tyres/few mods. ive been lurkin carsales/ns.com & here, found a few possibilities.

edit** if i cant find a worthy candidate from the import world ive got a mate who will sell me a modded sr20det with x-member and gearbox mounts to suit a mk2 escort..... a very tempting option

mazda familia for hill climbs

[RubyRS4]

Note to self:

Sell black Stagea

Buy black Porsche

Drive Porsche thru city looking for imports to challenge (Stagea in this case)

Proceed to speed past at 80kph passing cops in the city in a 50kph zone

Watch in rear mirror as cops ignore Porsche and suss out speed limit obeying Stagea

FAIL
