soryy all

was doing just that... crusing

tried to convince my wife that i finished half a tank of petrol in 1 night cos it drinks so much full... han fun though

damm its a nice car and i know now what you all mean about people having no idea what it is...

thanks guys

I test drove just that car, and offered Michael a little bit less for it, interesting way to sell a car, not looking for a counter offer... Anyway, was very nice and the first one I had driven, enjoy!

I'm still looking but taking the import path as there really aren't that many around within my reach, I also think we need more of these wonderful cars in the country so I will be doing my bit!

yeah when i made the offer i was surprised that he accepted and when on with the deal....

good lick mate.....

you should try Markus in Mt Waverley

he has a 97 white 18in wheels and the GTR brembo upgrade.... he has advertised 21900 but think you should shoot an offer to him as it has been for sale for a while.... i didnt get it as i didnt like the wheels and it didnt have the sunroofs..... if you have a look check the roof as there are some scratches which can be a good bargaining point

Thanks Ian,

I have seen that Staga on car sales, it has been around for a while but still too expensive for me to make a reasonable offer on. I am searching the auctions and have seen a cuouple of nice stagea's slide through in my price range with the desired options so it shouldn't be too long before i pick something up.

michaeljquinn here

If I had wanted an auction I would have put it on ebay.

Because I am an upfront person, I assumed that the offer put on the table

initially was what the lucky purchaser thought the car was worth.

I suppose the bottom line is, I am not a car salesman. I was not out

to screw anyone.

cheers, and humble, enjoy the ride !! :mellow:

Sorry Michael, if that came across as a critisim, it certainly was not intended. I found you to be a very genuine person and would have felt confident in purchasing a car from you.

I just had the expectation of, when you make an offer (and it's the first offer) that you may have a chance to increase that if there is competition for the purchase... In all fairness I was suprised you did get a better offer than mine given the circumstances, but anything can happen I guess?

No hard feelings here at all, I am sure I'll be driving my own Stagea before too long!

Cheers

Luke

Michael...

i will indeed enjoy the car.. nice job in keeping it in such good condition. take care

Luke (Munchdesign)

mate trust me make an offer to Markus and you will probably be surprised as he actaully call me today...

i told him about the meet on the 2 feb and he will come down.. be good if you could make it..

Ian

hmmmmmm just saw this on J_Spec Imports:

1999 Stagea 25TRSFOURS

engine:  2500

trans:  5 speed manual

milage:  75,000 km's

color:  Black

grade:  3.5

.. start price 650,000 yen

mmm....

was just looking at that same Stag! :O

Yum yum

Pitty that is only a start price...

One in stock

Still looking at possible dealer fees added on to this but probably as cheap as a Manual is going to get I think.

Cheers

Luke

    • Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.
    • Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).  
    • There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.
    • The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
    • Gee she looks a bit rear heavy in that first pic! Sounds like a great project with the kids, but as I guess you know R series stuff is getting hard to find and pre that is pretty much impossible these days
