Haven't seen a stagea in months over in Perth, then I see 3 in 24hours. Met Chris (footo) yesterday on a cruise, greenish c34 in doubleview, and silver, maybe an autech?? At the lights,marmion/burns beach road.

I've been thinking of leaving an SAU business card on the car, but everytime I see it I'm either in too much of a hurry to get somewhere or too tired to do it.

You live down Targo or on Targo? I'm on the other side of the station in Toonie, but my car also spends 95% of its home time in the garage.

Clean car? Mine? LOL! :D

Yeh I live on Targo, in a villa near oramzi st. I'm not sure I've seen your car gettin around, is it a dark c34? I've seen a white one getting around nearby a few times and there is a red one owned by an old bloke that I pass near Abbott rd in the mornings a lot but he never waves.

Yep, mine's a dark green s1 C34 with the V35 GT premium 18" wheels on it. I've got relatives who live right up the highway end of Targo Road near the park, and I'm there fairly often.

StageIan lives not far off Darcy Road in Wenty, in a red s2 C34 - probably not the same one you've seen on Abbott Rd.

I've also on occasion seen a silver s1 C34 parked on Targo Road, maybe the owner was going to Tony Shaw's Swimming Pool? Same car has also been spotted in Pendle Hill just off Darcy Road near the Binalong Road end.

Spotted 2 white C34s in Newcastle today. One at about 930am near the stadium heading toward the city. I was heading the other way. And another parked just after as i turned up toward the old hospital at waratah.

I just spotted a silver M35 AXIS on Station Road in Seven Hills about 10mins ago, I was heading the other way in mine.

Also, travelled in convoy with StageIan today to the SAU Picnic and saw Theo and met Craig.

    • Definitely didn't put a N/A cluster in instead? The speed sensor (location) is different in both cars.... I think. This will obviously stuff things up.
    • Nah not the throwout bearing, it's something internal. I already replaced the throwout bearing. Mechanic misdiagnosed my car and thought it was a spigot bearing, went to another bloke who said it was an input shaft bearing. (I replaced everything when I pulled out the gearbox but didn't open up the gearbox.   In this video at timestamp 6:05 : Mine has the same sound  min
    • It is definitely to space it out and away for clearance during compression, and possibly for spring clearance to upper arm. That latter would only be true for springs that are same-ish diameter to stockers, and so that probably doesn't apply to Teins or most other coilovers.
    • Yeah, a mechanic who knows these cars told me even if I get a brand new gearbox the noise will return but will be less noticeable. I've heard someone also they this noise came back after 3,000km on a new or reconditioned gearbox. It is pretty f**king annoying though just hearing groaning most of the time lol. I wonder if an aftermarket input shaft bearing would fix the problem or how they are built.
    • All RB gearbags, especially the big turbo box, have rollover noise. Mine certainly does. Always has. Sometimes is worse than others - no particular idea why, although it is probably temperature related. I have smurf jizz in mine and have had to have it in there from the first day the box went into teh car. It simply would not select gears with the engine on, on day one, with normal oil in there. And so, the blue stuff has probably ruined almost everything synchro related in the box. But it has taken 12 or 13 years to get to the point where I simply must replace the box. It has become increasingly baulky of late, which might be symptomatic of the way I've been driving it, as much as anything. I shall have to make some corrections when teh new box goes in. Input shaft bearing noise will decrease with clutch pedal pressed because the drive is removed. But yes, more often than not noises that work like that are associated with the throwout. It won't matter either way, new box will mean this one can be relegated to the parts pile.
