Nope, i work on the car every day from 08.00 untill 18.00.

All the piping to the Intercooler will be polished alu pipes, and the same for the pipe from turbo to airfilter.

I will post more pictures later today, right now it is 07 i the morning here in Denmark, and i will start working again at 8 o'clock.

When the car i finished, i will make a little video, and show you guys downunder, some danish smoke.

Like I said: you're not wasting any time! Very impressive: when do you expect/hope to have it back on the road?? At this rate, it sounds like you'll only need another 45 minutes!

when do you expect/hope to have it back on the road??

Hopefully in 2-3 days, then i will put it on the dyno at 0.6 bar, to see the output, the goal is 500+ whp at 1,2 bar, is that not possible, bigger turbine, injectors and another ECU.

What's the Stagea head-count in Denmark roughly? Are they everywhere or are they super rare?

Love what you're doing too.

hows that for exclusivity... what are the rules for bringing a japanese import to denmark? ours are pretty strict, you cant just bring anything in, and when you do bring a car in, it costs about $3000 worth of work before the government says its safe to drive on our roads.

Maybe if our roads werent so shit it wouldnt be a problem.... [/rant]

When we import a car from Japan, we have to pay 180% in tax, on top of the price for the car, that really suxxxs.

Thats why we only have old cars in denmark.

I payed 45.000 AUD for for my Stag, with a RB25DE engine year 98, what will this car cost i Australia.!!

A BMW 320 new model, will cost 100.000 AUD, whats the price downunder.!!

The RB25DE is too shit to bring into Australia. You can only import the turbo models.

But for 45,000AUD you would get a full bombed off the dick 400awkw+ 260RS.

A base model 320i with no options here is about 55,000AUD + on road costs (registration, tax etc). Maybe 63,000AUD all up.

For 100,000AUD you buy like a 335i or similar.

Hey guys.

It is up and running right now, it started firste time we turned the key, and it sounds like a million hp, i will think it have around 300-320 hp at 0.5 bars boost, i have tryed to upload a video at youtybe, but without luck, video vil be added later.

We have adjusted the ignition, fuel, airflow, and it have the right amoung off fuel, when we boost, or cruising, new Apexi ECU will be attached sone, and bigger injectors, bigger fuel-pump, the i hope for 550 hp at 1,2 bar, it shut be possible.

Is it possible to upload a video, 10,2 mb at this site.!!
