Hi guys,

Interested in getting a tow bar fitted to the Stagea for carting around my race bike and go-kart to the track. Just rang Allin Towbars, but their man to do it will be on leave until 1 March 2010 :) They sounded very reluctant to touch an import also. When I confirmed it was an import it was all "Yeah, well umm ..."

Wondering who else in Adelaide is a reputable shop to do this? I won't touch Southern Tow Bars, due to a bad history with them.

Chad, if you're reading this, where did you get yours done?

:P

Trusted them twice ... learnt my lesson twice. Sorry.

I'll be giving Salisbury Towbars a go.

So how is it????

Awesome. $327 for a towbar rated to 1500kg ... as I only need it for towing my bikes to the track. Did a great job around my exhaust and rear bumper too. Very neat.

:cool:

I might have to chase them up pretty soon. Would like something heavy duty enough to be able to tow my mates Ceffy to drifts though...

I asked about that ... $490 fitted for something heavy duty like that.

:P

I might look into getting one on the Stag.

Did they have to cut the bar, or did it come up from underneath?

No cutting of the bar. Very neat job. Even accommodated for my rear bar lip. :rofl:

    • Has equal chance of cleaning an AFM and f**king an AFM. I think you can work out what happened. When the Hitachi ECU sees the AFM die and goes into the associated limp mode, then it will start and run just fine, because it ignores the AFM and just runs on idle maps that will do what it needs to get it going. But there is no proper load signal, so that's about all it can do. My suggestion? If you don't want to go full aftermaket ECU, then get some R35 GTR AFM cards and some housings to put them in, in the stock location, and Nistune the ECU. Better to do a good upgrade than just replace shitty 40 year old tech with the same 40 year old tech.
    • So my car was recently having trouble starting on initial crank, I would need to feather the gas for it to start up but besides that it would start and run fine. So I clicked the idle air control valve (with throttle body cleaner) and cleaned the MAF sensors (with MAF cleaner). The start up issue was fixed and now the car turns over without the assist of the throttle, but the car is in limp mode and wont rev past 2.5k RPM. From what I understand the IACV would not put the car in limp mode, so I am to believe it is the MAF sensors, but it was running fine before and now I cant get it out of limp mode. I cleaned the MAF made sure the o rings were seated properly. Made sure the cables were plugged in properly, the cables also both read the same voltage. Does anybody know why this is or what could be causing this or how to get it out of limp mode?
    • Ooo I might actually come and bring the kids, however will leave the shit box home and take the daily
    • Thanks. Yeah I realised that there's no way I'd be able to cover the holes with the filler, it would just fall through. Thanks again @GTSBoy!
    • That was the reason I asked. If you were going to be fully bodge spec, then that type of filler is the extreme bodge way to fill a large gap. But seeing as you're going to use glass sheet, I would only use that fibre reinforced filler if there are places that need a "bit more" after you've finished laying in the sheet. Which, ideally, you wouldn't. You might use a blob of it underneath the sheet, if you need to provide some support from under to keep the level of your sheet repair up as high as it needs to be, to minimise the amount of filler you need on top. Even though you're going bodge spec here, using glass instead of metal, the same rules apply wrt not having half inch deep filler on the top of the repair. Thick filler always ends up shitting the bed earlier than thin filler.
