Hi everyone,

Just thought id jump in and say a quick hello. I have a genuine 260RS that i picked up a few months ago in QLD and got it sent down to me in SA. Best decision i have ever made, the car is awesome! Best part is that not many people no what a normal stagea is let alone the autech 260rs version!

Yeah I checked out one on parra rd, so dodgy! They wanted something ridiculous like 30 for it. Then I got onto Eddie in china town, it turned out it was his car and he offered it to me for very low 20's. Do you mind if I ask the ballpark figure for your one?

There is a silver series 2 down at mona vale, I had a chat and got his number. I'll get him on the forum next time I speak to him. NSW stagea's should organise a cruise in a month or so, it'd be good to check out some of the others in the flesh.

I've driven some nice cars like ferrari, tvr, lexus, audi etc. The stagea is up there with them, I'm so happy with the beast.

Eddie seems to say that about all the stag's (that they were his car) ... they're not, he drives a V12 SLK mercedes worth an obcene amount of money, he showed me when i was down there buying mine. He also told me he had an EVo 8 stolen from the back of a truck when it was meant to be gettin transported to QLD, truck driver left it running to get some ramps to get it on the back of the truck, then bam 45 grand down the drain, mine cost in the low 20's aswell

Pearl white 260RS. In the NT.

Pretty much stock :O

Wife owns a 97 RS4 auto with gtr fmic, pod, bleeder, 3" turbo back, tein sus, splitfies's, apex boost guage and apex timer.

Hello, my name is Rhys and I'm very shortly going to recieve my S1 96 Stagea with a Dayz kit, cowskin seats and two holes cut in the roof with glass shoved in there to keep the rain out. I've been waiting for this little girl patiently for a while, as we all do, and now that it is so close it's even harder to wait!

I live in Sydney and noticed that after I voted my whereabouts on the poll thingy at the start of this thread NSW and VIC Stagea owner's are now even with 27.59% ownership a piece so I might just go and buy another one for the missus if I like mine enough just to tip the scales in NSW's favour. :)

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
