Wowee

Great shots guys! Looks like an awesome day out.

White 2 door R34 driving through Ourimbah at 7:20am today.

So this is what my car looked like the day I bought it, complete with Dolphin body kit Yep nice and clean, note the ACT plates (you guys have lovely roads). Well this was very short-lived, after introducing the Stagea to the 'fantastic' roads we have to offer in NSW it wasn't long until it was copping a few bumps and scrapes. Then one dark night a chopped up drum of some kind was left in the middle of the road in an 80km/h zone which fatefully met with my front bumper causing much damage and distress. It wasn't a good look, but I didn't want to spend the time and money fixing it with the thought that somewhere down the track it might happen again. So I thought why not clean it up and create a custom front bumper! I was forced to drive around for about a week without a front bumper since I was having problems with my forester... and somehow escaping the glares of about 6 cop cars we made it without incident and re-attached the bumper today! I've grown fond of the look (although my black FM Intercooler is now a bit visible), what does SAU think?

Aren't we set for May 11th?

Spotted a Black R34 with a yellow bonnet driving down Showground Rd. in Gosford today. TWICE! First time I was walking and gave you a thumbs up, but you were too busy enjoying being in an R34.

Also heaps keen on a stag cruise! Last one I was still struggling with rego compliances but I'm all good to go now. Newcastle, Central Coast, Sydney, whatever! Give it a months notice and see how many we can get together, let's do this.

Get out of my car at work as a guy in a truck calls out "nice volvo man" with a knowing smile. cheeky bugger.

That was me! Taking that off-road was not fun haha. My suspension is so hard that it shook one of my side mirrors off the actuator. My boost gage also broke off xD all fixed now, but I really should have taken my forester that weekend.

Also me, I work there hahaha

That was me

So my current front bumper is about 110mm off the ground, and from being brought into NSW recently it is definitely not enjoying the rubbish roads we have here. Let's just say it's starting to really suffer, even after my most careful attempts at manoeuvring around "tricky" roads... This is my current bumper. I've started looking into DURAFLEX since they boast excellent durability and flexibility.... hence the name Have any of you had any experience with DURAFLEX? Also, will after market r33/r34 front bumpers fit onto a stagea with minimal effort? As I'm sure you're all well aware that Stagea body kits aren't exactly common and it seems DURAFLEX don't stock them.

pic of front bumper?

If I had the factory part

Hey guys, So I'm working on getting my Stagea ready for a blueslip in NSW. It's got a Blitz Blow off valve which is not passable. The return is capped, can I plumb it back through the BOV or will I need the OEM turbo recirculation valve? Not a great pic, but here it is.

My new toy. Fresh Stagea owner! Keen to join the community!

Ok, well if anyone knows best its you guys. Thanks, I'll take the right path and get it done properly. Cant wait to get it on the road!

save me some time and money, I can always say the mods were done after the blue slip

Hey guys, I'm the proud new owner of a 1999 Nissan Stagea which I picked up from Canberra and brought back to Newcastle NSW. The car is fantastic but I need to get it blue slipped for NSW registration. I had a chat to my mechanic and there are a fair few things that will need to be changed in order to legally pass a blue slip, thing is I'm obviously going to change it back the second it's done so why not skip the middle man? Is anyone aware of anyone in Newcastle or the Central Coast that passes modded cars? How have all of you gotten through your blue slips?
