  1. Ian I pm'd him. (once only)
  2. just back from car show at Parklands on Gold Coast. Did not see a single Stagea Lots of Skies Sils & 180's and one Cifero. Very disappointing!!!!!!!!! When are we going to exhibit? Or do we keep it to ourselves?
  3. what oxford1327 said interests me, ie the chemicals sprayed on to decontaminate the car. As mentioned in "electronic rust prevention" the undersides of my S1 ar veiled in a film of rust (corrosion). Especially the bits that were cad plated.Apart from having a flat battery yesterday this rust is the only thing that isses me off. Its going to cost $640 at Endrust to get it fixed.
  4. Dont know how or whybut I got stuck with a flat battery. Jump started and did not miss a start again today.Drove 200k so presume altenator is ok. On some vehicles you have to disconnect the battery terminals before connecting a charger. Is this necessaryon a Stagea?

    The green one is the same looking as mine. I thought it was, because the garage wall and tiltadoor are the same. My pavings are different. Eerie when i first saw pic. cheers

    Dont shoot me for this!!!!!! The roads are unowatting awful around here. Am getting a lot of stone chips off my own tyres. Are there any decent mudflaps for Stageas?
  7. should have read your message befor i PM is it 2/4 door?elec or manual? there are six pages in all. to get them you will need to go to the fish shop in Pictona get a dozen battered scollops for moi. actually send address and they are yours. also i have an MR30 TI Hatch , but now drive a Stagea.

    My S1 has an electric tailgate locker. Has yours? If I knew how to send a pic (must ask my 13yo) on my rear bumper, on the horizontal section is an inlay "STAGEA". Not seen it on any of the other pics of for sale units.lol. I am beginning to really LOVE my Stagea.
  9. even tho the sking is great in nz i dont want to move there just toget a cheap Stagea.
  10. thats cheap. I started this because im thinking about a nice S2, Neo ,Tiptronic All up with a few extras it will cost 20 grand! Would like to hear from other nz owners re costs when importing.
  11. Look up the Prestige Motorsport site and click on "cost calculator" The $616 I paid was for 6 months rego plus stamp duty but i dont have a breakdown of costs.
  12. be careful just quoting FOB price. If Rego place susses you you will have to pay top dollar. better to go a bit higher to avoid repercussions
  13. RS4 Turbo. Insurance postcode 4272. 40% discount. Maybe its because i really am a 66yo. Havnt had a prang cince i hit a bus the wrong way in a one way st in 1965. Nissans are TOUGH!
  14. So, how much does the privelage of owning a Stagea really cost. (after driving it for a month, who cares) Well here goes Prestiege Motor sport $1100.oo FOB ex JAD Y450,000 5356.60 Freight, Customs 3230.94 Compliance, fuel, tyres etc 3601.98 RWC 55.oo Shannons Comp. Ins 356.73 Rego, CTP, Stamp Duty 616.50 Incidental costs etc 200.oo TOTAL $14517.25 Things that need fixing/replacing CD/ RADIO 400.oo Rustprofing/ Electronic Rustproofing Unit 650.oo TOTAL $1050.oo Things I want to do Turbo Timer 100.oo A/T oil Cooler 200.oo Spoiler 200.oo Gauges 500.oo Timing Belt 250.oo Tune Up 500.oo TOTAL $1750.oo GRAND TOTAL $17317.25 Don't correct me caus I cant find my calculator. So to get a reasonably decent Stocker it will cost about 18 grand.
  15. First time i saw a prince skyline GT, was at an Orran Park or Amaroonight meet in about 64 or 65. OMG it was the most beautiful car I had ever seen.Most beautifulcar I have NEVER owned. Nearly got one in about 75 but it had too much rust. It was at Ted Lees on Parramatta Rd. Saw them in the press on and off. Finally got my MR30 TI Hatch in july 84. I still have her. 600K. Had the odd oil change. Mine was i think one of the first Nissan badged 30s. It came std with 15" alloys, OD and a lockup torque converter. Had a .686 od and an R180 diff. Its CD value was very low, about the same as a Porche. It was not quick but very fast. Nissans are great. Stageas the greatest.
  16. lol. only way that could keep up with a double unicorn would be if you had twin ramjets in the roof locker. hahahahahahaha.
  17. pitstop have come back with news that a supplement is available for about $30. Their reference is 17666.
  18. when I was looking last year there was a yellow rwd in a yard for 30 grand!!!!! Think it was a manual but not sure .
  19. ive got an mr30 manual, sm2e-or30go, from pitstop. there are no details for auto box L4N71B which is fitted with od. anyone out there got the info please
  20. wopsi meant circumference. sorry.
  21. i reckon it would be cheaper to go thru j spec or prestige. that way yoy get a car that goes! and is registerable.www.j-spec.com .au. goto mailing list ,type in skyline and search. you will see all sorts in your price range.
  22. alex, u need to measure the tyre diameter, especially if u have non factory. idont think my speedo is accurate, thats y iwanted the ratios. Pm ur diameter and ill work it out
