Gave the car some love today and did an oil change with Sugi 6000 (last bottle I had :( ) .

Will need to do a brake service very soon and get the rotors machined.

My safety inspection found my regular problem of a snapped rear swaybar Mount... :(

Time for Dales super duper ones. and might as well go for the heavy duty links as well.

Sorted mate, see you tonight.

If anyone else wants a set?:whistling:

On another note; a new shipment of Stagea bars arriving soon, so if you missed out last time; now's your chance.:thumbsup:

I can also get C34 bars if anyone wishes... PM for a price.

do I care.......what else can she take off me!!!

hate to say it, but make sure the Grp A r32 is "owned" by someone else in your family (ie dad) other than yourself.

been through all this, does NOT end pretty.

A guy at work had one of those black ford coupes ( mad Max car, one of 20 black ones ) sold for less then $20k in his divorce. :O. Normal sale price closer to $100k in the same condition.

No probs with that...it is dads!....only when he meets with an accident will it be mine!

good work!!

now thats a problem that scared the sh1t out of me when it happened lol

I was unfortunately able to recognize/diagnose it within a second when it died this time >_< But the upside was that I wasn't concerned about a) not being unable to get it home or b) it being a costly fix.

Ok it's about time I put something in here that actuallly relates to the thread title

I've fitted a hypergear atr43ss-1, braided water lines, twin 3inch drift pipes, and searched all over my drivetrain looking for a loose bolt that would make my car vibrate constantly and surge at low speeds.

good, I was sure that was the case.

Ive been through what you are currently going thru, albeit mine was different in the sense that once I was put onto disability her true colours came out, refused to work, came into mortgage stress, relationship breakdown, ends with seperation. Actually pretty much started the downward spiral after the birth of our second child - ex had post natal depression & wouldnt do anything about it.. in the end anything she said was a) full of swear words to both me and the children, b) yelled everything at top of lungs. Got impossible to talk to her about anything without her going OFF her tree.

If she cant pull her butt plug out soon, then I suggest you both get some counselling if you both want to continue the relationship. Lest face it, sex is a form of communication. In my instance Ive ended up having to sell my house and giving her most the money left over after costs/owings, seeing the kids are with her for two thirds a week. She never put a cent into the house/fees/etc but being the mum gets to walk away with 50% more than myself.

On topic, my Stagea is with Boostworx being pulled down. Depending on the condition of cylinder#5 it'll be 86mm CP pistons, hopefully an overbore isnt needed.

water cooled? i dont think thats what it is

i know the block youre talking about. just steal one from an old oil filter :P

no i dont think you do..

theres a water line that goes into the oil plate.

i pulled it apart on scottys spar motor yesterday to have a look. it looks like a silicone orange crush gasket seal of some sort.

unless thats what your talking about?

    • Pete knows these cars well, he does my car too, if he was concerned about the traction arm length for your use he would have said so. Do you have adjustable bushes in that arm, maybe he got enough adjustment there (or maybe the bump steer was not material for your use of the car)
    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
