Have seen more and more stagea's around Canberra. a really nice red 260? heading south onto northbourne avenue. and a nice stock silver nm35 heading down the parkes way towards Tuggers. Also another silver nm34 with black wheels heading out of Bruce onto Ginnendera drive.

Spotted a black pm35 autech at epic farmers markets on Saturday.

Haha yeah mate have fired up the BBQ and it's a ripper. 10/10 best purchase I've made this year. Thanks, I hope everything goes smoothly with the stag from here on out.. driving the lexus to work this morning was horrible... FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS!

Dropped my Stag off at Trojan motorsport, hopefully to get the "defectable" things fixed up for rego.

Hey folks, turns out I need a replacement windscreen fluid bottle. Went to fill mine up today because it was obviously dry, and all the water I put in made it to the ground just as fast. Anyone got a part number?

Thanks mate, will do. Just spoke to John, taking it in next wednesday to get everything looked at/sorted. Cheers for the tip.

Yeah the noise is fine I'm sure . Ride height seems fine but it did scrape a little over the pit when exiting. They said the coil overs would have to come off because even if you wind them up they'd have no spring. The wheels are probably 5mm outside the guards or st least flush. So what do I need, brakes, wheels and suspension off a stock 2002 Stagea.the other stuff I need to just fix.

They just want an engineers for brakes i think. They're big 14" infinity brakes, how they knew they were aftermarket and not an option is beyond me since they knew nothing else about stageas. I have to provide track measurements for the car also

Today I took my 02 nm35 over Dickson pits. Have a month to fix the following, Ride height Wheels outside of body line "Play in forward tail shaft universal joint" RHF inner cv boot split Non compliant tint. Exhaust noise is 'on limit' which shouldn't be an offence right! Also need an engineering cert for the upgraded brakes

I picked my Stag up last saturday, and my girlfriends father, being a Stagea fan that is a little jealous of my purchase likes to throw in the occasional "oh you're going there in the volvo?" line. otherwise I haven't had that kind of comment yet, just a few "what is that?"

Thanks mate, I'm hoping to get through unscathed on first attempt, but we will see. Is that your white stag in your profile? very awesome!

Just now I've booked the Stag in for a roadworthy inspection at Dickson for Monday afternoon. (was going to go with Ultimate Tunes but the car has the Purple import sticker, lame) *fingers crossed*

Today spotted a white skyline following a EEC through fyshwick near dfo and then this afternoon a really nice purple skyline with good wheels followed me a bit thigh Barton.

Haha g'day Kat, thanks! I've joined SAU NSW too, just waiting for it to all process I suppose. the new Stag is safe and sound in my garage.

As I was driving back into Canberra this afternoon I spotted a silver R32? they were turning off onto Mac's Reef Road.

Well I just traded a bank cheque and some for a set of keys to this.... Massive thanks to Matt13b for selling it to me and props to sPoolin for the great work he has done. Now to drive it back home to Canberra

Well I pick up my shiny "new" Stagea tomorrow Afternoon from Sydney and will be bringing it back home to Canberra, but I would definitely be keen on a cruise at some stage.

What have I done? Well I did organise to pick it up Saturday afternoon... wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

pm sent Matt

I would rather the better policy than the cost savings if I had to choose. Who did I speak to? I rang the hotline, pressed 1 and got some guy... I want to say his name was... Brent or Brett, however that doesn't sound right at all.

I just called Shannons for a quote to insure a stock '05 pnm35 I'm over 30, rating 1, never had an infringement or accident of any sort. have a secure lock up garage etc $1412.77 pa with a $550 excess $117 per month, does that seem a little high to anyone else? I like the free windscreen/glass cover but that still seems high, I thought there were meant to be benefits to getting old.

Looks like it would be about as comfortable as a jackhammer. This isn't going to be a daily driver then I take it? every time you go over a speedhumb... SCRUB, every time you go up a drive way.... SCRUB, every time you go over anything but mirror flat road..... SCRUB. I think it looks good if it's parked for show at Autosalon, but I can't see it being great to drive. As has been said, it's your car, do what you want and don't worry about anyone elses opinion. good luck

Amazing looking car, I'm very jealous. I am currently looking around to find something similar to your ride mate. Not that it matters at all, but I gotta agree with some of the other folks here, poke and stretch just aint for me, it's more for those "civic kids" that speak in hashtags.... #yolo #nomakeup #nofilter #selfiefridays Maybe I'm just showing my age a bit there but I like it just the way it is.
