lol it seems I have a Stagea owner customer (not sure who it was) who decided to have a run with a Commodore on the weekend in front of an unmarked cop car.

When he was pulled over, he tried to tell the officer that the boost controller and turbo timer were in it when it was complied and imported from Japan.

Whoever it was, next time you try it on, perhaps pick an officer that doesn't already know me before you start fibbing...the Iron Chef stickers on your car saved your arse this time, but they won't next time...

considering selling my stagea for a lowball price of around 10k.

bought 6yrs ago for 18k, had over 30k in modifications over the years (parts/labour/tune/servicing)

piston #5 is shagged tho, requires new rings, before ringland went walkabouts was putting out 230awkw tuned to 1bar, had seen 250rwkw at 18psi on the dyno.

been dyno'd numerious times, and out to the track a handful of times (last time out lost compression to piston#5)

if you know anyone after a 300rwkw-potential project car let me know, or pm me for my details - would simply require new rings to be back on road with 250kw, or larger injectors and forged pistons for the 300kw mark. stagea is currently at a crash repairer having all panels looked at, was graffitied friday night. Potentially a complete respray, not sure tho atm. Will know more regarding the paintjob over the next few days I guess.

      Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.

      Possible option to replace central computer 370 V36

      By Vee37 · Posted

      I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out

      Import insurance in 2025

      By CRSKmD · Posted

      I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.
