The Stagea made 335 rwkw at 25 psi last night with the new sound control exhaust. Very interesting to drive now, especially in rear drive. :cheers:

Well done Scotty. And I mean it ( you know when people say well done to someone just paying $, insted of actually building the car-like you have!)

Interesting final figure. I heard 328 @ 20psi from you know who last night.

Do you think that there is a restriction- as 5 extra psi didn't net much gain. Have you found the limit of the stock manifolds? Its not the Exhaust...

Or on the other hand, was it made a bit safer in the tune?

Dyno graphs please!:thumbsup:

Nice work Scotty! You've got a lot to be proud of with the development of your car.:worship:

Must be a hell of a thing to drive now!:thumbsup:

E-manage back in and running

More POWERS is evident!....and a little scarythumbsup.gif

One last tune......I wont catch the Scott's figure.....but hopefully will crack the 300AWKW's!

Craig, you sticking for 98 for 300kw, or switching to E85?

Scotty, great figures. Since it was measured in RWD, is it likely to drop when you get that front diff in, in terms of awkw?

sticking with BP98......cannot be bothered with E85.....I should have more than enough power for what I need or want.

I'm not really aiming 300AWKW's.......250AWKW's should be more than enough for what I want.

Took my car to Hampton Downs yesterday - best lap of 1.24.22 with 240kw.

Hopefully will have around 300kw next time.

Anyone who hasn't tried a track day should give it a go - great fun to be had hammering it flat out without fears for your licence!

A brake service with front discs machined and new pads all round..

Give the car a good clean and my much loved car will be for sale. :(

stay tuned for sale listing.

Are you getting a Series2 ready for the English conversion

Fitted Whiteline camber bushes a few years ago now due to the usual rear tyre wear issues. Was still chopping out rear inner tread (though not so bad as initially) so I have now fitted aftermarket rear adjustable links (upper) which should solve the problem permanently. One small hiccup in the process of removing OEM camber links, only the outter camber bush had been adjusted. The inner bush was set at (nothing, not used, set at minimum) :angry: What I don't get is that the knuckle heads that did the alignment fitted the bushes so it was not as if they were unaware of full adjustment facility.

Oh well, onwards & upwards now :turned:

After nearly 2 years of owning the stag i finally connected the automatic headlight adjustment plug... the retard compliance guys filled the plug with silicon when they removed the HID lights.... does anybody else use this fearure?? Its a S2 by the way

I finally got around to fitting the radiator fan shroud, not much left of the radiator mounting side as the radiator core is so big. Also re-installed the Mishimoto 62 degree thermostat while I was there. Hopefully no more overheating issues in traffic.

Automatic headlight adjustment? Mine just has an adjuster switch so I can set them as high or low as I want.

Yeah thats what im referring to... its automatic opposed to popping the bonnet and adjusting with a screwdriver :)

    • Hey guys I’m chasing a Rb20det complete or bare block need a good running engine as mine has low comp 
    • You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.
    • 98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.
    • Anyone know alternatives to powerplus tungsten? Can't find an alternative online. 
    • 95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
