  1. Looks good! I noticed they all have S2 taillights

    Forester Sti

    out of curiousity, how does the stagea compare performance wise to other cars like this and the wrx wagons?
  3. good suggestion, a 1.5 would reduce the hinderance of the automatic gearbox
  4. I don't really want a manual. My AE86 is setup well for sliding. I want a practical car that can allow me to have some 'fun' when the mood is right. I'm not worried about the rear end kicking out, more about the front end gripping up as the attesa gives it power (pulling out of the slide aggresively)
  5. Yeah, it would be going into an auto. That brings up another question/concern... Unwanted gearchanges during an opposite lock moment could cause the car to kick back. Any comments on this?
  6. I am keen to get a 2way Nismo LSD for my 4WD S1 when it arrives. I have a few questions though, I know how a good 2way acts in a light RWD car (My AE86), and I am quite a fan of the handling improvements it makes. How much different will this be to a heavy 4WD car with Attesa? Will the loss of rear end traction make the Attesa power up the front wheels? This sounds a bit dangerous and unbalanced. Can anyone shed some light on the situation? Thanks
  7. Possibly Ultima? I think its an American U13 bluebird
  8. That's who I got mine through. Performance Wise on eBay. They are not an original Nissan but a fairly good copy of the OEM part (TYC i think)
  9. I'm not sure if this has been posted elsewhere, I have checked some other threads and people still seem a bit confused... The 93-97 Nissan Altima front indicators are a pretty good replacement for the standard S1 items. The good news is, they come with a clear lense. A pair of these cost me about $80. I'll get the model number up later tonight. Here is a pic of mine. The one on the left has a conventional amber coloured globe in it. The one on the right has an amber coloured LED globe in it... If anyone knows of other solutions, please let us know.
  10. Hey there, Jason wasn't it? Yeah, I remember meeting you at the Alma and possibly Matty 1jzs 21st? I'm a big fan of that body kit you have there. I was looking at getting one of the black ones with that kit, but they all seemed to be a bit dodgey (due to respray or rust) When i yours due in the country? -Jesse
  11. I looked to Japan for my Series 1. Once it arrives in adelaide in about 3 weeks I will be able to give you my thoughts on the whole process. I am going through a guy I met that used to import a few cars for friends, now he has started a business. Elite Auto Imports. He has been very helpful and the whole process so far has been stress free (other than waiting of cause)
  12. Yeah, we should get a cruise and meet up happening in a month or two. Here are a couple quick auction pics of my car in Japan... As far as I know it has some suspension work (possibly coilovers) and some extent of aftermarket exhaust system. Other than that it appears pretty standard. Oh! and a Dolphin Type II rear wing
  13. Sounds great! I'm from Adelaide and have a Stagea on it's way from Japan too! Mine should be hitting Australian soil n the 4th May. We should meet up and check out each others rides when they are all ready! -Jesse
  14. c'mon! let's get these all paid for so production can start!
  15. What are the options for driving a newly complied unregistered car from VIC to SA? ie, temp rego, insurance or cover note etc?
  16. oh crap man! I didn't realise you put this up for sale already! PM sent!
  17. lots of people with useless cars then eh?
  18. Is this generally only used for snow/sand etc.??
  19. what about like the R34 V-Spec II?
  20. You do realise that same Grille was up for sale on eBay just a few days ago???
  21. I'll get a Stagea Series 1 model with the scoop. Posted to Adelaide. Cheers
