i wont make any power or performance claims as it seems to upset people

I will just say that it is on maximum torque by 4500rpm and it is quick enough for me.

[The fire is lit]

nice! i like it alot, good work mate

[adey88]

God Dayem! Very nice ride you have there!!

I want ur rb26

[PN-Mad]

Nice- I'm liking-

The NA (I think) grille

The strut brace- its a nismo right or Kansai?

The cleanness of the engine bay!

Green- you poms have something for greens

Whats that do-dah on the steering wheel? To many Danger to manifold jokes to be had there...

Whats the little plaque on the cam cover say?

Don't worry about the performance claims- Dynos are all completely different- and ramps rates, gears, operators etc etc all end up to be too many variables. Take it to the track- practice (said it was the first time yeah?) and lay down some numbers. Then you'll know where you stand! At the end of the day- if it puts a smile on your face- then happy times.

Good to have you here.

Yep, love it... although I do recall this machine or one just like it being on these here boards a while back.

[Greanmachine UK]

Yes it was .

I had to re register as changed email address and the password stopped working. This is where it is at now

The grille is the an NA one but it is also the one that goes with the nismo bodykit

The front strut brace is Kansai , rear is custom.

The button on the steering wheel is a remote boost switch that changes from low to high or of course the other way.

With this i can drive around on low and switch to high (1.5bar) immeadiately without taking my hands off the steering wheel.

The plaque

It is in memeory of Rob Gallager aka Tweenierob the guy and (mate) that built and mapped the engine .He was one of the top UK mappers and died in a road accident aged only 31

Why would anyone get upset with your power or performance figures?

Why would anyone get upset with your power or performance figures?

There was some misunderstanding in the Stagea performance thread. I couldn't follow all of the ranting.

BTW, nice ride. Cars like yours would be a rare sight on the roads around your home town I'd imagine.

[wolverine]

I just had a read of some of it.

Personally -5's would be cup of tea with a dirty thirty to spool them.

[4bidn1]

very very nice and neat always love that nismo kit . nice touch on the recaros too

[66yostagea]

There are two similarities between your Stagea and mine. It is anS1 and it is green.

I;m from Wolverhampton.

Looks great, feel free to share preformance figures, ignore the crap some people carry on with and as Alex said, as long as you enjoy it.

Have you got some more photos of the seats and dash. Curious to see what you have done as I have been thinking about similar mods. I'd like to switch seats but only if they matchs the trim, same goes for dials etc.

[Jezboosted]

Snce whenn didSAU alllow porrn on heere ?

Goshg,, whaats thiis sticckyy stuffd on mmy key boaard

I hope the amp is bolted down.

[Greanmachine UK]

a dyno print out

Max power 502.9 max torque 455 ft lbs. at the hubs

For reference the figures are the ones I have . They are awd at the hubs on dynapack rollers at Abbey Motorsport who are not known for silly claims. However please feel free to convert to downunder figures in any way you choose - Im not going to .

Personally I only use they as a comparison between then and now or in the future, they are what they are.

It has had a few mods since then . Power is down a small bit but the torque is up to around 480

And thanks for your concern wolverine the amps is bolted down

[GoldZilla]

Ted! Good to have you back online, man!

I hope the new format of the forums doesn't start causing issues for you (and others) again like the old one did...

I had lots of problems with the old format but then Prank fixed it with what he called a band-aid solution. The one thing that still bugged me was that if you clicked on a link when you tried to close the link it would close SAU instead - that appears to be fixed now with this latest version.

[wolverine]

I'm glad the amp is bolted down. They make a tasty projectile in an accident.

I have seen a folder of pics of car audio that wasn't bolted down and the carnage after an accident. It makes you rethink a few things floating around in the car.
