What Have You Done To Your Stagea Lately?

[PN-Mad]

Some good gains there, even taking into account the different converter lock ups on the two graphs.

1/4 mile now bud.

[Brick]

NEW SKID VIDZ!!

[Tangles]

Thinking about selling. 8k FIRM I reckon. Adelaide.

Rebuilt engine (forged) requires a tune, she's been run in enough.

The basic tune after run-in was 230-odd rwkw. Tomei cams, GT30 turbo, S15 injectors should be enough for 270+kw.

All work done by Boostworx

Rust under mirrors needs to be fixed.

What do you have your eye on to replace it, Brendan?

[GH05T]

im selling some spare bulbs, one of which is a phillips. check my thread mate, pm me if you need it

[pipster11]

I'll get a pair to replace them

But i think it may have come back alive again, which means its a bad connection somewhere

[Trex]

Putting in kdfl101's ATM. Wishing it was a new car because its so dirty!

soo close Alex........as mentioned theres more power to come! then its time.

[Tangles]

yeah, probably time to move on. Nothing in mind, just a replacement to get from A to B.

havent got a cent to my name, being a student and all that, so its a shame that the car is being babied and doesnt have the owner being able to put some funds into it

(tune, mirror rust, etc.). if it were to get a defect Id be screwed and thats my main concern in all honesty. fuel goes quick. needs that tune!

either sell and move on, or keep and get new wheels when Im working in a few yrs time while I strip & track it (or put it all in a GT4)

would love to do some events in the future, so there is always another option.....

worth more in parts than whole, ie block/head/turbo is the 8k.

Went for a little drive today to drop a car off at our finish point in preparation for walking the overland track (starting tmrw)

should be interesting as i've never done a hike this big before, and we're using the stagea to get into the middle of nowhere (which should be fine)

Installed a boost guage and found out my car is running at 0.7 bar (10 psi according to google conversion) car came with an electronic boost controller so i am assuming thats what it is set too. WIll be taking the car into the workshop in the next week or so to get it checked out by someone 'in the know' about these cars. I am still a boost noob... lol

[Duncan]

that's about the standard boost mate....is the boost controller turned on? generally it would be set between 12 and 14psi for a standard turbo
