Hi all....

My hubby picked this up today at auction through J-Spec...very happy...98 black manual stagea!!!

Funny thing is though...he was suppose to buy me a car too....and happened to forget..so now i have to wait until my car comes up in another auction!!!

Cheeky bugger he didnt pay that price for it either!!!

Now we are official apart of the stagea family...

luv wildcat :P

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!!

    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
