here what i have found

Midland towbars will get a towbar 1000kg from the eastern states and charge $795 fitted ....1 week wait and fitting 2-3 hours

rockingham towbars will make you a 1200kg towbar for $850 or a hayman (square tube type for $1050...needs car for 2-3 days

Someone told me that haymen reece make a 1600kg towbar but i rang them and these have never heard of such a car

[mazzas98s2]

looks clean optic

by the way are you the same blonde headed guy on PSB

[OptiC]

Hey Mazzas,

Yeah mate, same guy on PSB

Was into cars way before I found bikes but now share the passion of both types of racing. I actually bought the Stag so I can pack all my track days gear into it and trailer the race bike around and sleep in the back if necessary. The Stag is much nicer than any ute in the same price range plus I already know how to modify work on them.

[mazzas98s2]

i am rsvpaul i went for a few rides with you until i had a stack on th aprilia

i will be looking at modifying this one alittle soon just got to remember its actually my mrs car.

I drove it back from adelaide last week and there is plenty ive room to sleep in her

G'Day all,

New to site, had my NM35 for around 6 months. Can anyone in Perth tell me where they are getting their Stags serviced reliably, I'm down Rocko and nobody seems to know a thing about them. Cheers for any info

[whitenight27]

i think Zack at Cypher Industries is good with stageas. i know he has a c34.

and mel at evoR is starting to get in to them as well

but i do most of the work my self i only send it to some1 if i not have the tools or i have not done it befor

Cheers mate will look him up. CHanged out the airfilter the other day and realised how fiddly some of the bits are. Figured if I can take it to a pro until I know more about them and stay safe

[whitenight27]

most norm things are easy to do. what are u wanting to service?

[Kirko]

Yeah I've got a rough idle when stopped at lights etc after giving her a bit and wanted too see what it was. Hoping service will sort

[whitenight27]

Well hope ur rough idle is not the same as what mine has.

I have had a slight misfire and rough start in the morning for about 8 months.

In the last 3 weeks the misfire got worse and it started to idled rough at the lights. So I tried another set of coilpacks with no result

Only today I removed the spark plug from cylinder 6 only to find that it was full of coolant :-(

Now having to change the head gasket and hoping that is all thst it is

[whitenight27]

Anyone know some1 good but cheap to do a head gasket?

[Dingus]

Haven't posted in a long time, but very desperate here. Need a set of stock wheels with reasonable tyres, or a pair of wheels with decent 225/40/R18 wheels ASAP close to Bassendean. One of my rears just started to delaminate, and the other one is very close to it.

[whitenight27]

Well hope to have the stag back this weekend. Head will be all done.

head had a little corrosion had it has been welded and shaved. It also had a bath.

Now running a MLS-R head gasket with Apr head bolts.
