Close up pics of the rims can be seen on the following link.

Looking for a cheap upgrade on my POS Stagea snowflakes.

Any idea if these are a straight swap on to the 1997 Stagea RS4 hubs??

I'm in Perth so I'll need to sort out a freight cost too.

hmm whats pos stagea snowflakes lol??

um no idea if they will fit your car. Maybe make a topic in stagea section.

But if its 5 stud im sure it will fit?? right??

Postage should be 150 bucks max i think!! can look into it more if you are interested.

Cheers

I'll check up on the fitting side of things. There are a couple of people here in Perth who should be able to tell me; I'm just waiting to hear back from them.

POS stands for pieces of sh!t. My standard rims that the car came with are a really horrible multi spoke design. I'm more of a 5 spoke fan.

This set of 4 they look pretty clean: do you have all the centre caps for them? What condition are they in? (scratches wise).

Postage: I can work out dimensions okay (16 x 7 obviously), do you have an idea of the dead weight of these? I will need to get a pretty accurate cost on post. Plus I've never bought anything off this site (I'm new to the import scene) so I'll need to read the sticky threads to see how I go about it.

Cheers,

Dale.

Some of the center caps have some yellow marks on them..

But yup they all have center caps.

Some light scratches on the rims otherwise..

Weight i think its about 15-17kgs each rim..

I will take out the rubber for the other two rims to make it lighter. Since the rubber is no use, you wont need it anyways. Or i might leave the rubber on for more cushioning when transporting it..

For large items like this i normally post thru bus frieght (greyhound busses)

Has been the cheapest for me.

Also have sent a rear bar to melb thru them with no damage at all. Took them one day to send!!

Cheers..

Ohh and check the link below for more pics: Just scroll down the page.

I got my freight quote from one of my work's courier companies (gotta love working for a big nationwide company).

I got my quote based on Sydney Metro, would that be correct? The quoted price wasn't too bad actually.

Just waiting to hear how they will fit up to my wagon. I'm hoping it is a straight swap cause every other part on the car is Nissan Skyline GTS-T or GTR. (motor, gearbox, suspension, brakes, etc).

I'll get back to you ASAP.

I live life on my credit card too which might make getting some cash together in the next week or two interesting, but that is for me to sort out.

I'll send you a pm when I get myself sorted. Price is spot on though.

    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
