nice, very nice, black mmmm, and series 2 manual, even better :P

cant wait to cruise it up with some other stageas :P

thats gonna make my silver look boring as hell now :P

wish i waited for the series 2 models, but its good to know about the stageas in detail when others are only just purchasing and finding out :)

good luck with it and how long till its here?

cheers

Brad

thanks brad...yeah...black and manual was a big thing...it was really very cheap in comparison to what we thought it would go for!!

it will be nice to finally have a stagea after soooo long looking for one....for him anyway....i still have to find one

hey your silver one is never going to look dull....especially with what you have done do it...open the bonnet and see what reaction you get heheheeh (silver is a nice colour i looking at getting a cheap s1 if possible) :P

hopefully see you around now

luv wildcat :P

No...i have a CLEAN driving record....no accidents no speeding tickets..im a good chick....

I just know you dont mess with the MANS car!!!

You a checky bugger Brad :P

Wildcat you're Brett's wife? lol the guys at work were doing backflips when the auction finished, well under what he told us to spend... Definitely a Stag that I'd happily own.

The car was offered to us for 1.15 million yen FOB till today by the dealer (which in itself is a pretty good price for a black manual S2). The dealer basically wanted a quick sale so he sent it to auction today, so basically the budget we had was around the original offer value. We honestly expected it to go for more because the last 3 Black grade 4 S2 manuals that sold at auction went for the following prices:

1.508 million yen (1.608 FOB)

1.642 million yen (1.742 FOB)

1.355 million yen (1.455 FOB)

So yeah, he was extremely lucky to have gotten it for the price he did. And yes, we're on the lookout now for a car for you :P

Hey wildcat, Very nice indeed. Well done on the purchase of THE FAMILY CAR, yes that means that YOU can drive it too!! lol

Tell hubby we all said so........

Off topic, sorry, FunkyMonkey, do you work at Jspec? Also, do you happen to play DayofDefeat:Source?? Came across a funkimunki on there the other night & thought it 'could' be you!

5 seater no probs about that - just ask 3InTheBack, with 3 booster seats in the back lol!

Ive only got 2 booster seats.... spare room directly behind me for the seat to go as far back as possible (will extend the seat rails soon). 2m tall, so......! Great family wagon, no doubt about that.

Just guessing, this is an amazing price though!

1998 Stagea 4WD 25TRSFOURS

engine: 2500

trans: 5 speed manual

milage: 94,000 km's

color: Black

grade: 4

.. start price 520,000 yen

.. SOLD for 793,000 yen (car cost only)

.. around $15,800 landed, excluding compliance

Really quite amazing!

Thanks all...I know that 3 in the back has '3 in the back in car seats'...we have two in car seats and maybe a third??.... so i got worried when i couldnt see the middle seat belt!

Yes Brett got it for a very very good price...i think its about 19k all up.(not too sure)...he is very lucky! Originally the first black one we looked at buying in a car yard in Perth they were asking 27990 for it and it was an auto...so we got a bargain with this one!!

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
