Hey guys, just joined to forum last night so i thought id introduce myself..

Daniel - 19yo - Based in Thornleigh, NSW

ive joined this forum simply because i love the Stagea M35

thought id join it before i bought one to chat with a few of you !

perhaps learn a little more about the car and get to know a few of you, hope to see some of you around the place aswell

Definatley wanting a stagea.. but cose im on P's the ARX-four may be out of the question with the bloody Turbo laws for P Platers

interestingly enough they havent banned the 250t RS... so that may be the path i have to head down in order to own this beast legally on p's

would love to know peoples thoughts on the topic and your thoughts on a 250t vs ARX-four

Cheers Daniel

theyre all banned to P platers under the turbo laws.

I bought my ARX on my P's and got away with it..

you may be able to apply for discretion which may allow you to drive it..

but i didnt get pulled over once..

first time getting checked 2 days ago and thats only coz he wanted to see if my exhaust had a cat,

either you love an ARX or hate it..

majority will say get a 250t, but i own an ARX and would never get a 250t lol

nah if you have a look on the 109 page list the RTA have only banned the ARX

its sooo dumb !... as im sure your well aware of haha ;)

i know what you mean about liking or not liking the ARX... i personally do like it

the only thing that concerns me are the black bumpers in regards to maintenance.

ive seen alot of other cars where that has faded and it looks shit house... how do you go about caring for that :)

what kind of products are out there to keep it looking new ?

Cheers, Daniel

i see..

black bumpers have never faded for me, its just a plastic rub guard..

just wash em and they come up fine.. but if u polish the car, steer away from em as it will leave PITA marks on them..

voice your questions(within reason)

everyones happy to help

    • The Frenchy's kit is the way to go forward. A modern compressor that weighs about 1/2 as much, is at least twice as efficient, and will do a good job on R134a. And of course the kit has everything else you need to connect it up and have it work properly.
    • Hey all , I am in the process of having the AC system in my r32 GTST converted from r12 to r134a and I’m being told my compressor has gone bad and I will need a new one. I was wondering if anybody has any suggestions for what is the best route to go aside from dropping $1500 on a new oem one? I did see that Frenchy’s performance garage offers a kit to mount a Toyota compressor, has anybody actually used this kit on their car? Or is there anywhere I could purchase just a clutch? Any help is appreciated.
    • Well, your RB20 ECU loom won't have wires for the boost solenoid, that boost sensor, and possibly one or two other things. There could be differences in seemingly random things like the charcoal canister purge solenoid, because the 25DET has to handle boost in the vacuum system and the 20DE does not. I don't know - I haven't looked. It is very likely that all the most important things are same-same, being the main sensors like AFM, CAS, etc, and the injectors and ignition. Not that you'll need the AFM for the Haltech anyway. I would suggest that you would seriously want to sit down with the pinouts for both ECUs and just go through them and highlight green what is the same, orange what is different/missing, and make a plan from there. It's not going to be difficult. It will either be the same or need to be fixed.
    • yeaaa that's why I haven't done any wiring to the stock ecu harness because I have the haltech, but then that leads me to the other question of "is the pnp harness really plug and play?" or would I have to still switch some pins/wires over because the pnp is for the rb25det neo harness, and not for the rb20de neo harness. was really hoping to find something to spoon feed me since so many people have done rb20neo + t conversions, but man this is rough.
    • Temu raptor, lol. At least the owner isn't your typical ranger danger lot
