What Have You Done To Your Stagea Lately?

[scotty nm35]

do it.

Its easy to say, doing it is harder or should I say finding the time. I need this car back on the road...

I thought you were coming around today to help me.

[Sunkist]

yeh it was raining. lol i went home and slept. reason as to why im up now. ill swing past after work tomorrow pending pickles...

honestly i wouldnt port it.. wouldnt want the same problem that ended up happening with Vartis' head. f**k that

[ryanismo]

looking good scotty, how long til your done i want to take a ride in the great white whale

on another note i made my car SLOWER!...............with a set of Grex Alcon callipers and discs!!

[joshm35]

Installed the apex-i cat back I got from ross... Not really happy how it sits. I feel it could stick out about 2-3 more inches but it will do for now. Ill adjust it when I get the rest of my exhaust done.

Fitted front & rear Whiteline swaybars & rear links today (thanks Dale!) - will fit my new SPC rear camber & toe bolts next week & Superpro front camber & caster bushes as soon as they arrive (thanks again Dale!!!)

Car sits about one mullion times flatter with the new bars & would happily crack it sideways around sharp corners under a bootfull of power if it wasn't for the lack of LSD.

Highly recommended mod in the unlikely event you haven't already heard about it.

Removed the roof rails off my c34 today! Looks soo much better

[Mr 20Valve]

Just installed a Blitz panel filter.

Noticed zero difference, so it's certainly the best $69 I've spent today!

hahahaha that sux

[Daleo]

Machined rear rotors and stripped & blasted R34 GTt calipers & rotors ready for coating & reassembly.

[zei20l]

they look good dale!

[Mr 20Valve]

Do the GT-T calipers bolt up to the standard hubs w/ standard discs?

[Daleo]

they look good dale!

Hopefully they'll look even better once they've been coated. Getting a coat of deep black, and then a coat of 600deg clear to finish off.

Do the GT-T calipers bolt up to the standard hubs w/ standard discs?

They bolt straight up to our hubs with the added bonus of M14 mounting bolts (as opposed to 12mm on R32 GTR & R33 GTSt).

You need the matching 310mm x 30mm GTt rotors.

Looks like it's worth the effort then Dale! Easy solution (if, of course, you don't strip and rebuild/repaint!)

Was less pissing about than I was expecting actually; I had less trouble getting the pistons out of these than any caliper I've ever done.

I chucked them on really quickly in the workshop today, to see what they look like; I'm dying to get them finished now!

Pics once they're done.

[PN-Mad]

You've inspired me to get mine ship shape tomorrow. Going to take em off, do a check over, splash of paint, and hopefully find the reason for vibration I've been getting.

OK, so after I bought the new front bar I did a trial fit of it to see how it sits compaired to the old one.

BEFORE:

AFTER:

I'm also in the process of making up some blanking plates for the LED indicators supplied with it. Below is a pic of the LHS blanking plate partially completed.

FRONT VIEW:

Below is the template + LED lights

Had a Bury CC9060 BT system installed in the Stag. Works great!

[bigkevracer]

Why not just incorporate it into the stereo?

Ian, new front bumper looks heaps better!

How does it connect to a head unit for music playback, Is it RCA or via the radio?

Huh? It is incorporated into the stereo...it uses the factory head unit and speakers.

If your asking why I didn't buy a BT enabled headunit instead... I don't want to spend hundreds of dollars in parts just so I can fit a single/double DIN unit that won't do what my phone and a $99 WDTV can do. Know any headunits that can support NTFS? I'm sick of being limited to USB sticks for storage.

It can play back music via BT A2P streaming - the unit connects to the factory system via RCA. I didn't enable it since the AUX in will be used by a WDTV unit.
