I've always loved Stagea's, but only seriously considered owning when family commitments arrise, i'm 18 now so hopefully thats a long time down the road.

Anyway today i now want one, i want one over my R33, i've found myself looking at these images countless times to day, and posted them in other threads feeling it was my obligation to share such pictures.

Is it just me, or do all you Stagea owners idolise these pictures :laugh:

Will do, i could look at these pics all day, it's weird i've never had a car... i dunno, i'm forever seeing cars i like and feel i'm never content, but it's a different thing between actully thinking about a prefered car and wanting one. I want to build a Stagea like that one day =)

Ask Brad, aka CruiseLiner, he's spent like ~$20k and upwards on his RB26 RS4.

IF you want a RB26, DONT buy an RS4, buy a 260RS, they come with a RB26 and HEAPS of other stuff, and is a much better base for BIG power compared to a RS4.

So buy a 260RS ~$30k, add $7k to $10k for the kit and volia! It still does not make it a GTR wagon but, it will always be a Stagea :D

Jeez, people say putting gtr badges on gtsts is gay. I wouldn't do it myself, but at least it's a skyline.

The gtr34 front on the stagea looks good, but seriously, the gtr badge makes it look like the most riced up pos in the world.

If you do it, don't do the badge.

The badge is part of the grille, which is part of the front bar, so why remove it and make a mess of the bar?

Id keep it on there. Its not like your ADDING a badge... your just not REMOVING it... so you can get away with it.

Hmm i'm tossing up with the badge, GTR badges are shit on GTS-T's becuase there trying to make it look like somthing it's not a grt of that gts-t model. Where on a Stagea the gtr badge isn't trying to make it look like something it's not, i mean if there was a genuin GTR stagea it would be a different story. It's like running a differnt nissan badge i guess, i see teh GTR badge as teh Ulitmate nissan, and if you built a ulitmate Stagea, with gtr front end like that and if it had a rb26 in it, also with the 4wd i'd say it's GTR badge worthy. I dunno thats my two cents.

On a different note, i'm really annoyed, i was quite content with my current car and thought it would do me for the next few years. I mean i always said i want somthign faster, beter handling, rarer, so obviosuly i always thought GTR, and said yah give it 4-6 years and i'll own one. But now i'm not content at all with my car, i've put a picture of that Stagea on my desktop and it keeps looking at me. I think of the ability to put by guitar amp in the back, and not just my small amp i can fit my whol stack in. And if i got a tow bar (allthough i wouldn't want to tow with it) i'm sure i coudl use a small 200Kg trailer, with my dirt bike on it =)

I wish i never saw these pictures..............

They only thing i wish a Stagea coudl acheive, actully i dunno if it would look any good, is a Stagea with stove lights. Where someones taken teh time to fabricate skyline lights into the back. Do these pictues exist anywhere.

Seen it done on a Pulsar, so im sure it could be done with a Stagea. You could only get away with it if you had the 34 front though. But then, theyd HAVE to be 34 taillights, which measurement-wise, would fit, its just a matter of the custom fab youd need to do. Would definitely complete the C34-R34 Wagon transformation though... And would DEFINITELY confuse a lot of poor bastards following you. Seeing that you would have to remove the stagea badg for the bodywork... would you leave it off, i wonder????

Yeah there is a photochopped picture posted somewhere here in this section of a white stag with r34 rear lights, dunno where but.......?

I'll defently search for it, kinda keen to read up on Stagea's anyway =) now that i dont' have anotehr HSC exam till friday i'll get into it.

It's been 3 days since i've seen those pics and still i keep looking at them, i made my mate download them =) i've never had a car grown on me so much. Just the thoght of getting my amp in the back and towing a dirt bike make it so attractive as well :)

hmmm simon have a think about that one... the MASA front end being the R34 front end? So hence both your options being the same thing? Ahh

Maybe I'm just confused - terrible day ;)

Anywho - Goodluck with the Stag! Do something wild, I know I will be once I get my hands on another ;)

    • Power is fed to the ECU when the ignition switch is switched to IGN, at terminal 58. That same wire also connects to the ECCS relay to provide both the coil power and the contact side. When the ECU sees power at 58 it switches 16 to earth, which pulls the ECCS relay on, which feeds main power into the ECU and also to a bunch of other things. None of this is directly involved in the fuel pump - it just has to happen first. The ECU will pull terminal 18 to earth when it wants the fuel pump to run. This allows the fuel pump relay to pull in, which switches power on into the rest of the fuel pump control equipment. The fuel pump control regulator is controlled from terminal 104 on the ECU and is switched high or low depending on whether the ECU thinks the pump needs to run high or low. (I don't know which way around that is, and it really doesn't matter right now). The fuel pump control reg is really just a resistor that controls how the power through the pump goes to earth. Either straight to earth, or via the resistor. This part doesn't matter much to us today. The power to the fuel pump relay comes from one of the switched wires from the IGN switch and fusebox that is not shown off to the left of this page. That power runs the fuel pump relay coil and a number of other engine peripherals. Those peripherals don't really matter. All that matters is that there should be power available at the relay when the key is in the right position. At least - I think it's switched. If it's not switched, then power will be there all the time. Either way, if you don't have power there when you need it (ie, key on) then it won't work. The input-output switching side of the relay gains its power from a line similar (but not the same as) the one that feeds the ECU. SO I presume that is switched. Again, if there is not power there when you need it, then you have to look upstream. And... the upshot of all that? There is no "ground" at the fuel pump relay. Where you say: and say that pin 1 Black/Pink is ground, that is not true. The ECU trigger is AF73, is black/pink, and is the "ground". When the ECU says it is. The Blue/White wire is the "constant" 12V to power the relay's coil. And when I say "constant", I mean it may well only be on when the key is on. As I said above. So, when the ECU says not to be running the pump (which is any time after about 3s of switching on, with no crank signal or engine speed yet), then you should see 12V at both 1 and 2. Because the 12V will be all the way up to the ECU terminal 18, waiting to be switched to ground. When the ECU switches the fuel pump on, then AF73 should go to ~0V, having been switched to ground and the voltage drop now occurring over the relay coil. 3 & 5 are easy. 5 is the other "constant" 12V, that may or may not be constant but will very much want to be there when the key is on. Same as above. 3 goes to the pump. There should never be 12V visible at 3 unless the relay is pulled in. As to where the immobiliser might have been spliced into all this.... It will either have to be on wire AF70 or AF71, whichever is most accessible near the alarm. Given that all those wires run from the engine bay fusebox or the ECU, via the driver's area to the rear of the car, it could really be either. AF70 will be the same colour from the appropriate fuse all the way to the pump. If it has been cut and is dangling, you should be able to see that  in that area somewhere. Same with AF71.   You really should be able to force the pump to run. Just jump 12V onto AF72 and it should go. That will prove that the pump itself is willing to go along with you when you sort out the upstream. You really should be able to force the fuel pump relay on. Just short AF73 to earth when the key is on. If the pump runs, then the relay is fine, and all the power up to both inputs on the relay is fine. If it doesn't run (and given that you checked the relay itself actually works) then one or both of AF70 and AF71 are not bringing power to the game.
    • @PranK can you elaborate further on the Colorlock Dye? The website has a lot of options. I'm sure you've done all the research. I have old genuine leather seats that I have bought various refurbing creams and such, but never a dye. Any info on how long it lasts? Does it wash out? Is it a hassle? What product do I actually need? Am I just buying this kit and following the steps the page advises or something else? https://www.colourlockaustralia.com.au/colourlock-leather-repair-kit-dye.html
    • These going to fit over the big brakes? I'd be reeeeeeeeaaaall hesitant to believe so.
    • The leather work properly stunned me. Again, I am thankful that the leather was in such good condition. I'm not sure what the indent is at the top of the passenger seat. Like somebody was sitting in it with a golf ball between their shoulders. The wheels are more grey than silver now and missing a lot of gloss.  Here's one with nice silver wheels.
    • It's amazing how well the works on the leather seats. Looks mint. Looking forward to see how you go with the wheels. They do suit the car! Gutter rash is easy to fix, but I'm curious about getting the colour done.
