Hi all, I put a deposite on a Stage about a week ago and have spent many hours reading about them since. I have found this site to be an unbeatable source of nfo so thought i better join up and sho off my new wheels. I pick the car up in about a week and i tell you the wait is well...... painfull. I got the car though a work mates brother and currently waiting for it to be complied. It cost me $14000 all up on road with 6mths rego. I took it for a test drive and noted that it was very bouncy? other than that it was awsome. Does it look lowered in the ( poor quality - fone ) photos i have ?. Here are the details I know about it:

1997 Stagea RS Four - DAYZ

auto ( :( )

Grade 4 import

76,000 k's

Excelant condition.

Remote start

Many thanks in advance for your input.

yes, i 100% gaurentee it is lowered.

If its bumpy, probably has coilovers and had fatter wheeres in japan.

On another note, i predict you have a motorola A920 or A1000?? My motorola did the same thing in the photos with the black spots :(

Sweet that it has been lowered, hope it does not slow up compliance tho. My fone is an o2 XDA mini.

Well done, nice price too. Definatly lowered too so might be worth checking it out and seeing what is missing and visit SydneyKid's suspension group buy thread and buy anything that you need.

HELL YEAH ! i got a Hayabusa... no pics here at work tho. Will post some when I get home. ( better not put the ones with the naked misses sitting on it on here either.. lol )

mmmmmmmm naked missus, OOPS, I meant mmmmmmmmmm Hayabusa

hahaha nice one

mod'd at all (bike, not the missus)?

read below link to see what sillyme did to my 'Blade - better power:weight ration than a Hayabusa or Zx12R!

ZX12R is my dream bike, I find the 'Busa too low for my size.

Plus Im not a fan of the looks of a Hayabusa or the Blackbird, whereas I reckon the mean-as looking ZX12R is nice indeed.

But damn knees are dictating to me that I get off for a while, god damn Im going to miss her.............last ride this weekend I reckon.

EGA must have killed a Chinaman for his wheels to have taken so long to get here.

Mine took 22Dec to march 3rd for rego and I missed the Christmas boat.

26 Jan to May 9th for rego... Try buying one in Vic though, very little to choose from, and we need more imported anyway so I've done my bit!

nice new ride - the dayz bodykit is nice, i nearly picked up a dayz edition - it didnt have that grille though... i reckon the front bar looks like an S15... strawberryfaced stagea? And yeah thats definitely lowered, so if you want to swap back to standard suspension lemme know... :O

enjoy it! treat it nice, like.

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
