I've just moved over from WA and living in Glenelg, loving the fact that there is a car show nearly every weekend! Had a ute muster, Mini club, now All Japan and then Austin Healys in a couple of weeks, very cool.

I should have got on to the forums and entered! Saw a black, manual Stagea pretty much exactly like mine in every way haha.

Another great year. Great to meet some new members. The highlight was seeing the cops go after the Ferrari. Did anyone hear if they caught him? And having a drink at the watermark. Where all the SAU shirts were. Also cant wait to see Dave's photos.

Apparently he got away and then drove back down the same road later..

Great day and some very nice cars! Can't wait to get my coupe out maybe next year though.

Just to clarify, yes they got him.

He was dropping a mate to the airport, so he was told to come back and collect his fine or his car would be impounded, which is why he obviously came back (this is the black 458 Italia - the red one with the Iron Chef sticker that parked on the reserve had nothing to do with it). See, they don't only pick on imports! ;)

Seriously we smashed it out of the park today. So many awesome cars, and I'm still amazed at the number of spectators, we surely had over 1000 people drop by. Everyone was well behaved (with a couple of small exceptions) and Neil and the guys at SAPOL did a great job of chatting to owners and settling down the pelicans driving past.

Dave took a dozen photos and then gave up for the day.

      There's probably an underlying issue with the A/C system too. I recently fixed mine, now it's fully control by the Haltech and car's factory HVAC controller  Have a squiz here:

      Stagea S2 RS Four S Misfire/Rough Idle

      And by the way, I've also checked the ECU diagnostic numerous times and got a bad O2 sensor code and initially an Ignition Primary code, which is why I replaced the O2 sensor and all the ignition components (coil packa, plug and loom). No codes have been coming up lately despite the ongoing issue.

      Hey pber13, unfortunately still no luck. At this point the following has been done with little or no success: - Spark plugs replaced, gapped to 0.8mm - Splitfire coilpacks installed to replace originals - Replaced Ignition Coil/Coilpack harness with a new genuine nissan one - New fuel filter - Replaced AFM/MAF sensor - Injectors have been thoroughly cleaned with an online flush (without removing) - Upper engine and inlet decarbed - blew tons of black smoke out, cleared the carbon deposits from the top of the engine and exhaust.  - IACV removed and thoroughly cleaned with carburettor cleaner - O2 sensor replaced with new and genuine one -  Smoke test revealed no vacuum leaks - Healthy compression test of 160psi across all 6 cylinders Overall the car does run a lot smoother now, no backfires between gear shifts like it did originally... but the rough idle when warmed up is still there. It may not even be a misfire but simply a rough idle. Seems crazy to me that so many people have had this issue and seemingly no one has gotten to the bottom of it, or at least never bothered to post if they did! Hope you have more luck than I did pber13, I'm at a point now where I'm just going to try to ignore it unless it gets worse. Would love to fix it but I've genuinely run out of ideas of what it could be.

      I got the full frenchys kit too. Really awesome kit. Easy to install my only complaint was the hardlines I think could be routed differently (I modified mine) but I realise the kit needs to suit multiple applications. This was the hard lines before I modified them. They were touching the wastegate pipe. I ended up reducing the distance between firewall and first bend. The made it so they tucked along the frame rail.
