Is it here yet????? Is it here yet?????

I am incredibly unhappy.

Toll are incredibly unrelaible, but they are the only option to transport vehicles from Melb.

Next week it will have to be, I am getting so impatient, I'm dying here.......

Hey Colin, is she here yet????? I'm getting impatient to know and it's not even for me... You're gonna love her when she does arrive :thumbsup:

IT HAS ARRIVED!!!!

Went to get it last weekend, got it registered couple of days ago. Havent had time for a polish yet, in fact really annoyed cos hardly had time to drive it. But I'm loving it though, love the sunroofs, and its just so much newer than the little MR2 in the background with heaps more buttons to push...

Short on cash now!!! So im spending more time fixing the MR2 for sale than driving the Stagea, its so annoying.

Sam, heard u have probs with your head? The R32 back on the road yet?

Some pics I just took:

Cool, glad to hear its going!

MR2 will be in the paper on Sat for $6,600, i'll take less for it though. SPECS:

1988 Super Edition (Targa Roof)

107,000kms (major service, all seals/belts replaced, just done!!)

Mechanically A1

Front panel damage due to wallaby

Is a bargain tho, compared to what other AW11s are for sale, one on carsguide thats done 230,000 is for sale for 8,000!!!

I'll see how it goes anyway.

There is a white series one Stagea down at JDS auto in Hobart at the moment, thats one more.

I just put a deposit on it today. Once we sell the wife's Honda CR-V Sport, in with the rest of the money and away we go!

Might be the slowest Stag in Tassie (you know, totally stock and loaded down with the pimp leather interior and all), but the wife loves it!! So will the kids!

Cheers, Greg.

P.S. You guys know that Sam (Dr.Drift) can now ECU tune R33 ECU's? I'm getting a final price for it now. Not sure about the R34 based Stags though.

i'll crack up if that pizza is delivered in a red stagea with that huge Red Grasshopper on the roof(if it isn't tell OZ he should buy that stag and stick that grasshopper on the roof) :laughing-smiley-014:

    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
