when you compare it to a skyline, its not gonna come off as well obviously

but comparing it to another wagon its very good,

look at ford wagons, basic interior, leaf springs

commodore's are the same

only thing that will come close is a subaru legacy gt wagon but they are a bix exxy and the twin turbo's don't work very well

like you said bubba, some day i will also own another car to throw about and go fast in, but for now, the stagea is doing a pretty good job

if you wanted to do burnouts, you should have bought a commodore :D

I have a 3L'd R32 GTSt for that.. why would I buy a commodore?? Stag in to RWD keeps me happy until the 32's engine is back together.

Anyway, I much prefer the sound of a hipo RB torching the tyres over the sound of a ecotec v6 or chev v8.

Oi bubba do you know if the factory rwd procedure you discribed is the same for s1?

No idea mate, don't see why not.. it works on 33 and 34 gtr's AFAIK.. give it a bash :P

Yeah pulling your shaft in public will usually get you arrested :P

HAHAHA, that was a great comeback.

also i think the r32 gtr driveline is different to the r33/34 one.

33 and 34 are both controlled similar, while with the r32 its just a unplug of the fuse which fully unloads everything in the atessa system, or so i have read on here somewhere.

not 100% sure, but read somewhere. hence why you can buy those little torque controllers on ebay so cheap for the r32's and stagea s1's. apparently the s1 had parts from 32 and 33 in it.

but dont quote me on it.

i remember reading it somewhere a while back when i first got my car.

oh and on my s2 stag the plug is green with one yellow striped wire coming out of it, right at the top of the kickpad, it even hangs out a bit.

    • Which manifold mate? Meanwhile......Mark is wondering how bonnet vents would look on the NC 🤣
    • Actually,  just remembered there should be info in the threads (somewhere) about swapping to a manual steering rack and deleting power steering all together. 
    • Also had a look at the Nissan JP website looks like the 400r has a slightly shorter ratio than than the regular V37 3.133 VS 2.937 which from a guy who has driven both 3.69 vs 4.11 ratios in the S15 is bugger all. Seems that the AUTO Z runs the same ratio as the 400R but can't find any info as to if its an open or LSD? More often than not the auto LSD is open
    • Do not replace the power steering lines with this stuff. If it's anything like the Chase Bays stuff it will leak and be worse than stock. The reason why the reservoir is on the LH/passenger side of the car is because that's just where the reservoir was most convenient to fit. Don't overthink this stuff. The intake/cold side of the engine is pretty busy on these cars. And again, the hardpipe is designed to be a janky power steering cooler. In theory you can replace it with a real power steering cooler but that's really only for track use where boiling the fluid is a distinct possibility. Start with the low pressure lines feeding the pump from the reservoir. Make sure there isn't a bunch of junk in the reservoir filter. Be careful to not get ATF all over the engine bay. I hate dealing with ATF spills, you can clean it up and the slightest crevice will still release more oil that can still drip over time. You also want to inspect for leaks before you make a mess and can't tell what happened. Most likely you have a leak somewhere that is allowing fluid out and air in. Failing that it's allowing air in but not fluid out. Only place I can really see that happening is on the low pressure side because the pump will pull a slight vacuum to draw fluid in. Everything after the pump is high pressure or lower pressure, approaching atmospheric by the time it returns to the reservoir.
    • I did a skidpan night at SMSP this week, it was much cheaper than $350. But yeah, you need to slap an LSD in that thing.  I put an OS Giken in the 370Z and it's f**king MARVELOUS even compared to Nissan's viscous LSD. So you're saying it's free now that it's a housing estate? 😂
