DESTRO I know its fun to go fast but seeing as you don't know much about cars, I would really focus on the styling make it look nice, the thing about wanting "the complete package" performance and looks is that they tend to clash. E.g. coil overs and body kit, great handling but kit tends to get bashed and battered. since this is going to be your first car and most likely going to be hassled by cops, go for the looks, lower with just springs (trying to keep the ride as smooth as possible) don’t go crazy with the mags, invest in a VERY good car alarm, and get some serious ice. Do most of it your self with help from forums like this one, and you will have fun driving and learning about your first car. And if you get a body kit learn to repair fibreglass and paint cos your first car will take a bit of punishment.

yeh i understand. i dont really want to change the engine at all im happy the way it is but yeh i just wanted to make it look nice, i just had a 18 year old mate of mine die at st lucia 2 weeks ago raceing cause his car was way 2 powerfull for him. i dont exactly want to cark it myself :/

I just find it interesting on how the mechanics and mods work on engines ect, all my uncles and friends went into the mechanics field for work where i went into the fitness so im kind lost when they all talk this type of stuff... so if u can help me with my car ill help u with ur gym work out :O

so atlest on a forum you can read it in ur own time and explain it when ever you like and i can read the definitions or the name and look up what they do so when they talk about this stuff and when you guys talk about it i dont sit in the corner with a blank face and go ahh yeh righty o

hope that all makes sense

Cool, that’s great; you should come to the dinners and meet more people. you know there are dedicated sites for car audio and other things but one of the best sites i found for help and great write ups is www.redlineau.com read the older post in the forum cos the newer ones are just about them flamin each other :/

You can ask them for help and they will help you out in very easy to understand terms. he he he

    • I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.
    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
    • Hi, Marek here 🙋‍♂️. I finally fulfilled my longtime dream - recently bought Stagea and now waiting for it to arrive in Poland. There's only few of these in my country, and one of the owners  recommended mi this forum as a source of all the info i'd need since now i own one  so here i am.  
    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
    • and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.
