What Have You Done To Your Stagea Lately?

[slippylotion]

What shift kits are you guys using? Im only after something like a stage 1

[Sunkist]

scotts is a full kewish rebuild box.

mines a RVO automatics custom kit

[ironpaw]

I got mine done at RVO as well

Aaron - when you put the car into gear while stationary...do u get a bit of a push forward?

[Sunkist]

yep especially when cold

[zei20l]

that should happen on pretty much all auto transmissions. except ones that have a 'neutral idle'. ohh and start-stop equipped cars

[pipster11]

put my remsa pads in today and gave them a quick bed in (probably need more tho)

i still have a squeal (thought it was the old shims and pads up front) but it could be the rears

can't complain about the pads, great bite and grip, haven't heated them up much yet tho but i think they will be better than the old pads

fitted the BC racing suspension today...against dale's recommendation, i lowered the fronts a bit more

now i got a car that is slanted to the front, checked underneath, distance between undertray and the road is about 6-7cm...took it for a test drive, couldn't see the headlights of the cars right behind me unless it's a 4wd

gonna raise up the fronts tomorrow then get a wheel alignment done, the rears are toeing in pretty bad

Nah it never did it before the shift kit. More like a thud. Doesn't do it if the cars warm though

i picked up out NM35 Stagea from the compliance shop yesterday, registered and ready to go! With a day off today Im trying to decide if I should fit the Tanabe sus (at home on stands) or wait until next week so I can get it on my mates hoist.

Overall just excited to have it and start some work on it.
