awesome stuff Craig - glad to hear the black beast is back on the road :)

mad job in getting it there also.

its too damn far, and im not enough mods along to need a tune myself just yet lol

that said, i havent done an oil change in a while, with the nismo ecu still learning, i got 540km from the last tank of about 70L. thats with some spirited driving also. im pretty happy with the economy of this ecu even though i have a boat load more power/torque!

yeah 540kms wtf ;) --- im lucky to get 450 off boost :S

heh ive given up on mine in the sense of mods for the time being you guys are light years ahead even you Zei20l. ill be a year away from getting a tune and an ecu at this rate - its only destined to get a highflowed turbo for the time being and a new starter :)

ill do the runner spacer and new plugs and rocker gaskets when the turbo gets done. as i cant see myself in the limited space ive got doing engine outs often - until i get a bigger garage.

Spotted my tractor getting 520kms from 62 litres of 98

including going up Mt Tambourine with 5 large adults in the car

:)

Also, c34 rear strut brace fabrication begins next week ;)

He drives like a pussy so no surprise... :) lol

LOL, if it wasn't for him quoting 70 litres, I would have thought he was giving us numbers for his wife's Fiat, not the Stagea. And that would be some serious thrashing of the little buzzbox, too (the car, not the wife ;) ).

Getting a 70+ litre fuel tank into the little Fiat would be a feat, the thing is so small!

Man, this thread is way too quiet. Oh and it always makes me hungry, regardless of if the last few posts contained chat about food or not.

We need Sean, Cyrus, Mr ClownShoesTangles and others to start posting again.

i rekon using the boot i could get 70L in there :)

FYI people, did 240km on 1/4 of a tank to Port Stevens ;) all highway but needed some serious throttle to get past some morons. yes, the wife commented on the car sounding like a plane when i give it a boot full!

i guess 500+ km from a tank isnt all that bad. it needs an oil change so i expect that to get a little better afterwards

need to do the manifold spacer at some stage. not to mention the 456428475840596845673486 suspension parts to go on as well. i wish i had time.............

my m35 acheived regularly 650-700 ks out of a tank cruising mainly 110-115 kph over 5000ks sunny coast - melbourne and many places in between including up to mt hotham -bairnsdale-moe.

around the sunny coast 550-600 per tank 50/50 city-country driving. ;)

Fitted L/H tailgate lamp cluster. Interesting, the cluster I had was from a tailgate that did not have the closer fitted. The plug for the cluster is four pin on the closer model, but only three pin on the non closer. I experienced the same problem on the 25G while fitting a closer.

Why Mr Nissan????????

Now all the probs with the AFM are fixed have wound the boost up to 10psi.Will check it out Monday.

    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like  
    • A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.  
    • Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.
