Hey Guys

Just wondering if anyone knows a few places that work on stageas m35 2002

Contacted mark from hills motorsport they can get ti done just a big chunk of money to be throwing around

the turbo is on its way out and the tranny is funny when towing

Wish some one told me 3 years ago that if you are going to tow with it then fit a bigger trans cooler

Anyways any info would be great thanks

Take it to jet wreck ...I'm sure he will reply soon.

I don't know if hills Motorsport have changed owners.. But a good 6 years ago they were rubbish.

Don't know what you were quoted or what your box needs.. But a service at JAX, flush and new oil with me providing the oil was $130

yeah i messaged him to give me a buzz thanks

And hills said $1850 for turbo + $650 for fitting

$2295 for rebuilt transmission and $560 for trans cooler

Its a big chunk of cash but

I guess if i keep the car for another 5-6 years prob ok

Ok this is where confusion has set in !!!

Turbo should onky cost at max 1250 for your current one to be high flowed and rebuilt. Jetwreck had mine done by Precision Turbo for a Sierra stage one. They can do a pretty much one day turn around. Alternativly you can send it down south to to hypergear who charge 850 for the service but have a 1-2 week turn around.

Jetwreck is the man for doing the change over also. These are one of those cars that if they haven't done it before don't take it to them.

Should be able to get a decent trans cooler for $150. With the C34 its easy enough to get a known good auto box for about $300 (they are just dumped over here) from someone converting to manual but don't know how easy it is to find an M35 trans although there are one or two doing a manual conversion in Aus....but a rebuild might be good if you're going to keep it for at least another 5 years!

Depending on how much mods you have in mind. For some thing that that is stock replacement we charge $880 to high flow and that is responsive and works just like a stock turbocharger with bit more torque.

We can also high flow them to our SS-2 billet specifications with an larger 38mm internal gate. The SS service cost $1150 to carry out.

Turn around time is generally 3 working days plus the postage and shipping period on top. It will be lot quicker if you are based in Melbourne.

PM M35scotty for metal induction pipe and dump pipe if you are chasing performance.

Some results to share:

lol.....I LUV Mexican dyno's!!!

As Stao has said....Melbourne based see Scott for the change and Hypergear for the turbo.

Sydney.....contact me first and ask my opinion then its your call. See Precision for the turbo.

Talk to you later on your gearbox Aleks....

They are readings from the same car on two different dynos one on P98 and one on E85. Both of them are accurate and many can prove that.

As for OP, We've been working on M35 turbochargers for many years with different combinations trailed. You now of aware our time frame and costs as well as our options and results foreseeable for your decision.

yup....the dyno's tell the truth Stao!!!...and I know the car and the dyno's used!

Don't we use them as a tuning device anyway?

Happy dyno....happy customers! Sad Dyno sad customer!

I'm not getting into Dyno arguments with you....i've given you a plug as I know you do a good build and you give a shit! nuf said!!!

    • Welcome Jan, It's very likely that you are in over your head. You'll just have to learn to swim hard and fast! These old rust buckets have more ways to bankrupt us than almost any other car. But hopefully there's nothing wrong that ruins the whole show! We can help a fair bit. There's plenty here who've been fixing these things for >25 years. cheers
    • Hi all. First off, thanks for reading my post. So end of last season I put the car away knowing I was leaking at least two fluids. One of them being rear turbo's oil. I went to my car recently that is waiting in a garage to take a peek with my boroscope to try and see if I can narrow down the souce of oil before taking it out of storage. What I found is not so great I think. The rear turbo is (probably) leaking from the oil drain. The hose and it's clamps are probably the original ones, so most likely just worn out or loose. However I spotted a line of rust going straight down from the turbo oil feed, as if water leaked out of there at some point. Also explains the red liquid that was dripping from my front subframe, which I initially thought was power steering. I can even see coolant drops hanging off the side of the oil pan as well. After a quick hit on the web I found a select few discussions about porous engine blocks. My question is if the pics of the turbo oil feed and the left hand side of the block (imgur link below) looks like it could be exactly that to you. Maybe someone in the community has seen it before and knows what it looks like. If it actually is a porously leaking block, has anyone attempted at fixing it with simple methods like putting a sealer in the cooling system and using something like jb weld on the block surface, or will it just leak in 2 weeks again? I could not find any detailed info or pictures on this topic. If I need a new engine, tell me softly. https://imgur.com/a/knVvmZ8
    • Hey all. I'm 23 and from Germany, September last year I bought a mildly modded 1995 GTR Vspec. Looks great and was fun so far, but I already have a list of issues of various severity that I need to take care of, potentially growing longer the closer I look. I just hope I'm not in over my head, I really want to keep the car and work towards it becoming great. I hope y'all will help me out in getting there, I am positive I will need help sooner rather than later to figure out how to proceed. greetings, some pics of the car I posted to imgur. https://imgur.com/a/StKkabz
    • Would be interesting what the price would be without the barracuda wheels. Looks like he dropped it down to 40k. Maybe his mate wasn't correct about the 50k evaluation. Has always been a dream of mine to own an auto 33. Looks like I'll have to keep saving my pocket money or ask mum for more pocket money.
    • Thinking about importing a stagea as a family car since i’m getting married this year, thoughts? Me and my fiance both like stageas, but don’t have any experience with them
