Yep... was a "new" experiance. On another note, SK, darrin has expressed 100% interest in the exhaust in exchange for money off the front end he is selling me to fix my car. Sorry about that.

Yes Cyrus, you are wrong. Your pipes go under your chassis rails like mine did. You have no hole cut. As far as how low it sits, ive never had any problems at all with hitting my pipes. Infact, they sit pretty high compared to the front bar. My pipes are for sale if anyone is interested.

looks like the compliance cat out of my stagea

I need an S2 front bar, as Darrins front is an S2 front So ill have an S1/2

Yudy, if you are picking the car up next Thursday id LOVE to go for a drive in the 260RS just to see how it goes compared to my previous stagea. Still not 100% decided against buying a 260RS myself. Let me know on MSN or call me 0439 909 610. Id have to see when I have uni that day too. Cheers

www.topstage.com.au does fibre parts. the difference between dry and wet CF is big in price but very similar in terms of weight. I dont think the 100% price increase of dry fibre is worth the 20% weight saving. Saying that, dry fibre looks 10x tougher than wet fibre which has been overused lately with ricers etc

SK, Sorry, the ehaust has been unconditionally bought by darrin as part of an exchange for part of his front end i need.

ive never been defected ive never been pulled over i regularly (weekly and/or several time a week) attend certain events which attract attention. never even had a double glance. Biggest comment I got was "wow, thats a big pipe you have out the back" ....then they saw my tail lights....

HAHAHHA Ska/SK, SK particularly, you are both funny bastards. SK. Sorry mate, we are building an office in our factory at the moment, its been hectic as a whore house on friday night down there. Carpenters buildings, plumbers/aircon people/tilers/plasterers/painters/customers in/out ALL day. At one point, I had two customers, 2 painters, a plasterer and a plumber all there at the same time. Along with the 3 guys building the wooden frame.

I see the lack of any truely "new" stagea related topics recently. There was once a time that I read/reply every topic, but these days, i reply in maybe 30% of them. Bring back the glory of the suspension/brakes/SITC/transmission/attessa threads Yes... I am just killing time

streetability is not just about "if the car can take it" its things like - having major lag for overtaking - bad ass shit fuel economy - how hard the power hits (aka, fishtail into the car next to you) - car could be up to it, but it will start snapping shit (fuel pumps, axles, diffs, transmissions etc) and many more like that.

People who have installed them have said they are a lot more laggy than stock but when they come on, its like BOOM. Ive been told they hit full boost around the 3500 mark compared to an RB25 where it still hits around 2750 or so. To me, the top end is where its at as long as it doesnt hit FB at like 5000 rpm like a massive laggy bitch turbo does.

im coming!!! ...*wishes*

its called, fixo el smashedo front end with cheapest parts available

no idea, but when i was looking r32/33 boxes were going for 800/1300ish for good ones. Id image somewhere around the 3-4k mark as they wouldnt have that many KM's and would be in possibly high demand

As above, its just RWD but if you have a RWD stag that should be fine. S15 boxes suck Everyone does S13 box conversions. Just get an R34 GTR 6 speed and dont hook up the transfer case...

ive spoken with freddy a few days ago. he is saying that the prelim price is $175 but didnt think about the nuts in the fibre. Ill work that out with him, package them all and let you all know the final price + delivery. should be around the $200 mark for the spoilers and around $30 max for shipping. thanks

stagea had third party, full stop. didnt go for fire/theft as they would pay me 3k for a 30k car full comp was uhh, 3.9 if i remember correctly after telling them about all the mods. This was with shannons and JCI was more like 4.5k.

yeh man, uhh, el cheapo pov ass spec spray paint. to be honest, painting the hybrid logo wont do anything to performance. just do light coats, dont go excessive. whats 0.00001mm of paint going to do to heat transfer when air is going like 80kph+

As far as I would think Terminal, there is no need to match clutch masters/slaves if you get yourself some braided lines at the same time (my original intention). All you need to do is match connectors and get the length right. Its good that someones finally done a public conversion. Damn cheap available parts over there in NZ

I need a reo too

as far as i knew, auto ecus work fine but you need to trick the "park switch" and some other switch into beleive its always in gear. goldzillas stagea is converted using auto ECU.

so brad, it rips mad skids yeh?

is there are any gaps, you cant really fix em easy. As far as the rear tailgate goes, mine has a pretty big gap between the rear bar and gate, but meh, what can you do.

id say std shocks are dead by about 50,000km
