Installing Lsds On My S1...

[qikstagea]

What are youre thoughts on this? am looking into pricing of lambo style door hinges for my S1 stagea.

I have put them on a mates S15 (see saikoogarage.com, and check out PROJECTS), and they look horn. If they can lift the s15 doors no worries, the stageas li'l front doors should be easy. You can get universal hinges, and if need be adapt them to suit.

I figure it will be something different. I mean, stageas are rarer than most, so one with lambo doors aint gonna be a common sight. It was either going to be lambo fronts, or suicide rears... and due to $$$ constraints - lambo wins out, being a simple bolt on.

Will try and do some photoshopping to see what its gonna look like, but yeah.

What are your thoughts?

[munchstagea]

That is a pretty crazy idea Rob!

What about rears as well? Now that would be mad!

Thats interesting

Theres a Sil (?) on Jspec, A convertible with lsd.

[qikstagea]

yeah i saw that - the gold one with the honda tail-lights and all that? but yeah i figure it would be nice and different.

Just organised the rest of the nismo kit with chris $800, plus $500 paint + fit,

getting the wang off alex $100ish

the soarer-style cat-back split exhaust, no-name brand$600

SK's suspension to lower it $1800ish

The kit is gonna be about $1000 i think...

so about $5k and she's done. Already got the ICE installed.

Will be the nice cruisy show car... Got the 31 GTS for when i feel like doin something stupid.

[Ska]

DO IT!

Get two kits and I'll drive down and we can install them in both yours and mine at the same time

Then we can look at doing the rears too

suicide the rear doors instead... lambo doors on sedans look like arse with a pinch of smelly feet.

hahahah lambo doors look poxy as unless u actually got a lambo.

f**k the doors, make it faster instead! turbo or doors hmm i know what i'd choose

[munchstagea]

Ive seen a set on a R33 coupe - looked awesome.

anyway - Im not one to go on a showponyexpress ride, my Stagea is a stealth-wagon alllll the way. hell, Id love to paint the bonnet and roof Pand black, but then it wouldnt be a stealth / sleeper look would it?! Same reason why I went for R34GTT 17's, keep it looking stock.

Remember, its whats on the insides that counts!

I reckon if you like it, do it!! ... id prefer performance but respect lambo doors!

modifying cars is anything you want it to be performance, looks, ICE ... we all have our preferances im sure you would hate some of my ideas but thats what i like about it ..thats the point to modifying your car other wise we may as well just go buy a white Commonwhore

I reckon you would prob be one of only a very very select few with a Stagea AND lambo doors DAMN!!! hahhaha guaranteed recognition!!!

just my 2cents

do lambo doors on the front, then suicide lambo doors on the rear. would look the shit then.

while you're at it, have the boot split open like a tailgate and lifting only the rear window. split your bonnet down the middle to open sideways.

yah, do that.

i wouldnt do anything to the doors, but just fronts is a bit lacking.. has to be fronts and rears

meh id figured that theres no point working a 97rs4 performance wise, better bang for your buck in a 260. so i figure ill just dress it up. hmmm i dont know about neaons though. maybe for shows, but thatd be it.

I just want to end up with something unique. You can put all your money under the bonnet of a stagea, but as soon as it comes to cornering or braking, you lose, its too heavy.

like i said, i have a 31gts for when im feelin the need for speed.

they aint that bad thru the twisties, pretty fast and stable with the awd. with 200awkw the Stagea 'could' be a Hills weapon.

nice - R31.... yum

[qikstagea]

yeah but if you put the same money into something more nimble, much better results. like in the VR4 thread - you wouldnt buy a stagea to do up for hill climbs, it not an economical option.

Now the R31 though... second hand parts blaster. Has S13 steerring and control arms etc with second hand tein s13 coilovers, no interior, stainless spaghetti manifold, Blown VL turbo that is waiting for a highflow, in-tank bosch pump, 444cc injectors, fmic with a busted core waiting for replacement, turbo back 3". "needs work" lol. 5spd is smooth as. LSD. whole car cost me $2k, so i think i did well. just for a drift pig.
