Nice rims too Ben...

I replaced the radiator hoses today, blue silicons to match the cooler piping.

Also ripped the rear disks off to get machined. Found a seized caliper so I ended up having to remove and repair it also. I fitted the QFM pads and bled the system with no other issues. My brakes should be sorted now.

Finally fitted the last bits of body back to the car... Washer jets, fabric thing under the bonnet and the end caps for the side skirts which are all sikaflexed up and taped on to set... It's amazing how two small things make the car looked "finished"... Oh and installed the hdi d spec boost contoller and boost gauge last night, low boost tuned to 10psi. Will set a high boost after I get a new dump and front pipe. Also looks like I'm picking up my rb30 short motor next week :D

tried to fit the splash guards to no evail... Had both the ones that came off the old car and my s2 ones... Might try some r34 ones and see how I go...

Today my stag got some luuuurve

New oil

Oil Filter

Spark plugs

Injector clean treatment

Tyre rotation

Top up of all fluids

Fixed instrument panel bug I had

Some time this week will change the 3 ancillary belts.

Also discovered my lowerball mount boots are torn and the random leak/weeping from around the back of the transfer case is still around. Will get photos of the leak area... anyone have any experience with these lowerball joints?

This is what 50,000k old Champion gold series plugs look like. Replaced them with NGK coppers will change them more often...

Today when i was at work i put the stag on a pit and removed the front driveshaft, :)

I plugged the hole that the shaft came out of with a small plastic plug.

Then i pulled the 4wd fuse and took it for a spin in the wet :D

Car feels really good in rwd, pretty happy. Glad mine came with an LSD too. I might leave it in rwd for a while.

I noticed a lack of stagea youtube vids, might have to make some vids to put up soon :)

aren't you supposed to let the pressure out of the attesa system as well, i though the clutches for the front shaft were preloaded with pressure?

Nope pulling the front drive shaft is all that needs to be done....

Today i tested out the lsd :)

Then i put my first stag vid up on youtube.

Take your burnouts and piss of mate.... Just what we need posted on SAU. Videos of you doing burnouts on public roads/car parks in Australia in stageas, a car that TENDED to fly under the radar due to MINIMAL cock head ownership

No worries, that's why I blocked my plates. I Really didn't think I would get flamed so hard. Ah well won't make that mistake again.

Peace.

Don't worry about the plates... It's the fact a stagea is very incognito champ... Oh and bright yellow, I'm sure others who have a yellow s2 don't want local cops pulling them over asking about burnout and the such

    • No worries at all 🫡 I think the most satisfying things to make are the little bits that are just impossible to find or they're no longer manufactured. Generally I always try to replace parts with OEM wherever possible. This little project is also great because it'll never see the light of day, but strengthen these brackets so it's not just relying on the little standard screws in the headlight plastic. As soon as I saw the standard brackets and screws I thought, "well I'm not going to install with just the screws, the plastic tabs will just snap off". It's crazy how expensive everything has become yeah. But I suppose that's supply and demand; granted it's a lot easier to get brand new genuine parts these days which is fantastic 😊, I don't have to get totally reamed at the local Nissan dealer ha ha We sure are lucky we have all these manufacturers making parts these days, a few really great Australian companies too like Platinum Racing Products and Fit Mint Automotive, what a time to be alive ❤️ . I've got my eye on the RB26 head by PRP as mine has a very fine hairline crack, so that'll need to be addressed some time in the future. If you have any requests or odd things to make feel free to let me know and I can have a crack at making replacement parts ✌️
    • Thanks for sharing this, and BTW if your headlights are in good condition they are worth thousands....you might want to consider replacing them with brand new LED ones like this (https://www.nengun.com/78works/full-led-headlights-r32-skyline) and making enough profit to buy a house in Sydney
    • I'm not sure what sort of shops are nearby, but I'd expect any reasonable exhaust shop could put a cat in it that will not restrict the power that engine makes. Otherwise, if you want to remove it, short lengths that replace the cat are readily available online, search for "de-cat pipes" or "test pipes"  
    • Howdy friends, So another weird one today, I was looking into replacing some broken clips holding the front grille for the R32 GTR (part number 01553-03831), and noticed the brackets which are supposed to hold the grille in place were also missing 😑. I do recall seeing this issue many years ago, but didn't fix it at the time. A quick look on eBay and I was able to find the genuine brackets, along with all the screws which suited the headlights (part numbers 26042-08U05,26092-08U05). Happy days!....  Once they arrived however there was an extra nut in the packaging which implied that there should also be a bolt or a stud, and sure enough, after a bit of searching I found this thread from 2013, and @Ants clearly shows a stud should be present. Reading around a bit more, it's possible the headlights on my car are the "povo pack" headlights as mentioned by @funkymonkey in this thread way back in 2008. This could explain why the studs are missing on my set of headlights. Looking at the headlight diagram I wasn't able to see a suitable part number for the stud itself. The headlight did indeed have a recess that looked like it would accept a stud, but interestingly no thread or anything obvious how the stud would be affixed to the headlight, I suspect it may have been glued in, press fit, or melted into the plastic at the factory. Another member may be able to clarify if they happen to have a genuine set of N1 headlamps. The only thing we have to work with within the recess is a keyway which likely is there to prevent the stud from rotating within the recess. In any case, back to 3D printing, I put together a model which acts like a pug with a friction fit inside this recess, making use of the keyway so it doesn't rotate while tightening a bolt. Printing in TPU will allow it to slightly swell making a nice snug fit without cracking the part. I've designed the adaptor it to accept an 20 mm M6 bolt (stainless with a cap head in my case), as opposed to the standard M5 stud and I made use of the standard galvanised split washer that came with the genuine brackets from Nissan. Once the bolt and screws were all in place, giving the bracket a gentle shake gave the classic "shaking the car" feeling, very solid, which gives me confidence this is going to be able to hold on much better than the janky solution which seems to have been here for the past decade or so. Overall I'm really pleased with how this turned out and maybe there are more people out there running these headlights without a centre stud at all!

    • Hey everyone, This is my first post apart of the introduction. I tried searching a bit on the forum but couldn't really get a straight answer. I got the car to my mechanic as I felt it being weak. It seems that it was missing on two cylinders due to the injectors. I had all my injectors clean and the car runs much better. The mechanic also confirmed my suspicions that the cat is clogged and needs to be tackled asap. The cat rattles a bit and the hot exhaust warning frequently lights up when driving after getting the injectors clean. In my introduction I was asked about what modification I might be interested in and mentioned a cat delete. From what I was told, this is not really beneficial on the RB20DE and there are more cons than pros.  Could perhaps anyone give some suggestions on what the best course of action would be since the current cat is toast and needs to be removed/replaced anyway? I can also sometimes smell a strong smell of fuel, but I'm not sure if this is related.
