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.

    • Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.
    • Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.   
    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
