Future Plans

[Tangles]

As title states. Keep it simple; but list it out!

Im sure we all want to hear what others have planned for their lovely stags.

.................................................

me, bit stuck for cash until the bike sells, but Im sure by the end of the summer Id have fitted:

* front and rear braided brake lines, full fluid flush, along with DBA front slotted rotors.

* front caster bushes and have full wheel alignment, and add the auto oil cooler kit (got all this lying around)

* go to MV Autos for the valve body actuator exchange, with full fluid flush.

* add some sort of high flow turbo and a retune of the safc and sitc, to 1bar.

2kish should get me there.

* maybe finish off with a dvd player. sell my cdstacker and tape head unit, cost me zilch.

* alter drivers seat rail length

* 4wd controller, or some sort of fancy gadget??? hahaha! who knows.

but at the least I'll soon fit up the parts that I currently have, as time permits. at the end of the day it'll be under 30k and a very nice family performance car, fully sorted in all aspects.

.............................................

Soooo, what have you got planned to your Stagea, and to what sort of timeframe and budget?

Cheers, and best of luck to the project!

[AMS]

Umm well, and Rb26, manual conversion...

oh wait - I dont have a Stagea anymore

[qikstagea]

* alter drivers seat rail length

lol 2 metres tall, eh?

plans for anna -

* paint and fit nismo side skirts and rear bar.

* door inserts and seat centres retrimmed in red velour (instead of green stuff)

* brake upgrade to either S2 or whatever fits and is bigger

* SydneyKid lowered suspension

* Scissor doors

* That is all.

PS its called anna cos anastagea (anastasia) is too long. no i didnt think of it, someone i know said it as a joke and it stuck.

pps tangles if you want an in-dash/roof mount DVD player i can get one for you at staff price, hey. Just name the brand, ill mail it. Theyre a heap cheaper at staff, like a few hundred $$. would be glad to help out

Future mods : short shift

CF bonnet

Complete engine swap with Hks built engine or a Nissan Rb26Z2 engine mated with a 6 speed gearbox. All will be cryogenically treated if costs allow just an option. Target 400kw at wheels depending wheter it allows for a long term realbility or not. Kill ultimitaley any HSVs or FPVs thats out there anytime. better still i let them have a head start

if i do the engine upgrade might have to upgrade brake cllipers or lines(braided SS), nismo twin plate clutch.

Thats all i can think of for the moment estimated costs for all this is 15-20k. Will do the mod in stages if i xan due to budget constraints

oh and i just modified the handbrake to be in the centre console.

i have a powerfc and a hi-flo turbo sitting in my garage waiting to go in with my R33 GTR gearbox & RS Four-S console.

after that i'll tidy up the interior with some boost, oil and air temp gauges that are badly needed (why did nissan release a turbo car without these?)

then a brake upgrade will be warranted, probably some R33 brembos. not too much more though, as i'm starting to save for my M35 when they become a bit more affordable (and the VQ35DD model is approved for import)

Lets just hope it doesn't involve taking the engine out again haha

[mcnamg]

well mine being stock i start with an empty sheet and my wishlist starts from here.

my wishlist in no particular order

- bodykit freeway dolphin or equivalent

- rims rays g-games 99b

- fmic

- r34gtt brake upgrade

- manual conversion

- gcg hiflow turbo upgrade

- carputer

- PFC

- Sydney Kid Suspension Upgrade

- Sydneykid Swaybars

- Stereo System Upgrade

- Respray in custom colour

- Splitfire Coils

- Sure there is more but cant think of them at the moment

[CruiseLiner]

i dont have to take it out because its already out its totally disassembled and waiting for machining and ati balancer from usa then its all back together and in the stagea for a while

[munchstagea]

I am looking at (over a very long time) and tight budget:

• A head unit that plays Mp3's, picks up radio stations and looks like it could have been factory issued eg: back faced not silver, brushed mental and screaming the year 2035!

• High/Low boost switch on the standard solenoid (running high at the moment and it makes a good performance difference)

• SMIC ducting, my front bar means no direct air flow to the side mount, would work well with a FMIC but I am not going that path just yet.

• Reversing camera, hooked up to the standard monitor, need to work out getting the display to work when in gear though... (goes blank once you leave park at the moment)

• A set of Splits for the front to replace factory items, self powered sub for the rear, I need bass but not OONTZ!

• Auto Oil Cooler kit, at some stage

• Split dump, high flow cat and maybe a cat back...

• R34 GTT SMIC.

• K&N Panel filter.

• S-AFC for a tune and to improve economy.

• SK suspension kit

• Full re-spray in factory Sherwood Green (Black at the mo)

• High flow if the turbo ever lets go!

I'll be doing the cheap stuff first, and some of this may never happen...

Cheers

My only mods to my manual S2 so far are 19" wheels and thin rubber so I also have a pretty much blank canvas from which I would like to (in order):

Fix SatNav/TV and install DVD/MP3 player head unit

Custom plates

SK's suspension (the works)

Convert to fully injected LPG (not dual fuel) with comformable LPG tanks (including computer)

Cold air intake, Pod filter and larger intake piping

Mandrel bent hi flow exhaust

Freeway Dolphin Front Grille, EyeLiners and Wheel Arch Flares (already on order)

Brake upgrade

Intercooler upgrade

Scissor lift doors

Ultimately I would like to throw in the NEO RB26DETT and 6 speed from the R34GTR - don't know if this is possible, but it's a dream at the moment.

Oh yeah, and then sell it for another car...
