    ^^speaking from the number one rule breaker of SAU :pwned:

    MADE!!!!!!! lol dont worry brad we still like you.

    yeah least you get to have some fun with your shows. motorvation is a dismal event. love the fact the stagea can get the tyres spinning when rolling without to much effort. awesome.

    yep carbon fibre FTW!

    unfortunately there is no way the finances will stretch that far, besides, with my cars complete lack of aero, including the std front lip, I think it would look plain silly. I am really chasing function over form here, but at the same time I dont want it to look like I was a honda owner in a previous life :dry:

    you dont need your car for us to know that. he he.

    umm you could just find a simple vent. then get a panel beater to mould it into the bonnet. not hard for someone with knowhow.

    scuze me for being ignorant, but dont you own a Stagea yet??

    What have you been doing on this forum for the last 6 months???

    Checkin us out hey!

    I was meant to get rid of my car a while ago but kept having more and more problems with it. I came on here to gather info on stageas. I thought what better way to do that than to talk and interact with current owners. Besides I thought this was an enthusiasts forum, Im an enthusiast. I would love to buy a stagea or a skyline, but being 20 and not in stable jobs has caused me to postpone my purchase.

    Hey Gary how much did u pick those r33 gtr rims up for if i may ask? do they fit perfect without sticking out the gaurds? are they lightweight compared to 17' cheap china rims? im trying to drop 20kg from my car and rims seem like the ideal option considering ive stripped the interior of seats and back cargo area stuff (lost 80kg so far).

    a 9" grinder will take some weight off. saw it on Viva La Bam when they put a sunroof in his Gallardo and made his hummer a convertible.

    I imported my s1 with 73000 on the clock with dual sunroofs and leather for $12,500. From the condition of the car (grade4) and service history the km appear to be genuine.

    In my opinion there is a lot or money to be saved in importing rather than buying from a yard. I have seen a car identical at Cannington with more km for $21k.

    ok ill give ya 13 for it and then you'll be able to import another one. huh huh fair deal. i think so.

    yeah i know that. I change everything every 5000kms or 6 months anyways. whichever comes first. but its the 100k with the previous owner is what Im worried about. I dont care if its been driven hard sometimes. I mean im not gunna nanna it around.

    goto Distinctive Car Imports in wangara Heath and check out a sweet cond series 1 dark blue, has bilstein coilovers (factory fitted he reckons) and looks in awesome condition for around 16k if i remember correctly. tell him ya mate with the rb26 stagea sent u down for a looksie. low low km i think too.

    he seems like an honest bloke and i'd prefer them over the vic park shop, though i must admit ive never had a bad dealing with the vic park shop, only heard bad stuff from other people.

    vic park shop charge 22k for the same car that distinctive charge 15k for.

    good luck mate and let us know how u go :P

    yeah cheers brad. oooooo dark blue. nice. not many around like that. yeah I still gotta sell the mini, (well fix it first then sell it) so once its back from the panel beaters should be ok to go. yay. just yeah keeping my options open.

    Not the green one?

    I'll give you a tip - all their stags sit around for ages, but the ones they have had the longest are al moved down to the Cannington yard so if you want to lowball, that would be the way to do it.

    If you want a bloody good reason NOT to deal with them guys at all, just drop me a PM, but be prepared to have your toes curl. :P

    hit me with it

    Around the 100k mark is where the prices in Japan start to drop off a bit, I wouldn't be put off by the kms unless you are talking 250k... Log books would be nice all the same, I wouldn't import another car without them. Condition is your best indicator as mentioned and ask for compression tests etc. never hurts to ask. If you are buying at auction though you will get very little info other than "runs nice and smooth" good luck! Buy the best car you can afford, an immaculate S1 might be better than a run down S2...

    Cheers

    hmm i did think that way. S1's have come down alot since I last looked. theres still one for sale in vic park, but the still asking to much I feel. might give em a hell low offer seeing its been there for ages. leather and dual sunroofs. drools.

    Hey peoples.

    Just wondering what people thought was a good amount of K's for a stagea if I was to import one myself.

    Ive seen a few around 60k but generally they are around 90k. What sorta life expectency am I looking at with the RB 25, and the RB25neo.

    Cheers Heath
