Well, after haunting these here forums for over 3 months and quietly sucking all the info I could from the fine people here, I have just sold my soul to the bank and slapped a deposit on my new Stagea!

To all you WA folk, I have got this beast off the new kid on the compliance block - DCImports.com and so far I can thoroughly recommend them. Regan seems to be a fairly straight forward bloke who has done me a great deal and I think it is fabulous that we now have a choice of compliers in WA other than the one we all know and bitch about. He also had a nice selection of 2 door stageas :P laying about the place for those that way inclined.

I will be picking the green machine up in a weeks time and I will have more photos then, but for now heres the one they had on their site.

:sorcerer:

Dude LOVE the colour...

Always glad to see another addition - need some more for the east coast, though...

No tint at the back, and no lip on the front bar???? bit unusual, hey....

Yeah, kinda blew me away that there was no "privacy glass" in the back too, (first one I've seen like that)not to mention that the entire console is woodgrain too, including the gearshift facia. It has a few oddities about it but its super clean and the kids just fell in love with the roof mounted screen for the in dash dvd player, and I fell in love with the viper alarm and turbo timer. That'll be another few $$$ I can spend on mods..... :huh:

It also has a few bits 'n pieces that I haven't heard about before, such as a switch on the dash just left of the wheel that lights up a picture of the front and rear diffs on the dash, and it has the standard power switch on the gear console, but it also has a "snow" setting - WTF??? any idea's/explanations would be appreciated

ahhh.... been covered im not sure if i remember... The diff button locks the transfer case to 50/50, i believe, as oppose to all to rear unless lippages occurs, as the ATTESA system dictates.

The snow setting... beats me. Locks all four wheels for grip...? i know it was covered somewhere.

The power button is the same as on commodores etc.

maybe the back glass has been broken before and they put plain glass in instead of the factory dark stuff?

Thats what I thought, but there is no privacy glass at all - the whole car has that greenish tinged 99% uv tint and thats it - it will make it easier for the better half to reverse at night I suppose..

:huh:

Got it in one! Just my sad attempt at humor.......

I cant figure the car out, it has a fairly different trim in a lot of ways, but according to the sticky thread, it is an RS Four as far as I can figure and it does have the electric boot closing thingy. The main thing is its in great condition.

Look familiar? no window tint, no front lip. Different grille though (ill add that one of those grilles will be arrinving on my doorstep within the week).

This is from the stagea sales brochure, covering the rs, rsfour, and rsfourv.

I think that yours is like the newer ARX variant - no lip to add ground clearance or something like that, and no tint for better visibility...?post-24895-1164075709.jpgpost-24895-1164075792.jpg

      Wheel refurb?

      By PranK · Posted

      Yeah this confirms what I was thinking. Volks are worth a crap load more than my M Sport 17s and 2500 is nuts!  240 is crazy cheap, was this 20 years ago? I have a fairly good air compressor so I'm tempted to get an eBay sand blaster.

      Wheel refurb?

      By dyl33 · Posted

      I got a quote to restore a set of Volk racing gtc wheels at a wheel restoration shop which involved repainting the centres fixing some small gutter rash and repolishing them and the quote was $2.5k I ended up getting them sandblasted and powdercoated for $240

      Wheel refurb?

      By PranK · Posted

      Has anybody had their wheels refurbished? I reckon it's likely bloody expensive. Even a sand blasting quote for my 17s was 200-300 per wheel! The E39 wheels are basic BMW M Sport (or M Tech at the time.) they have slight rash and some have signs of bad repair in the past on the lips. The main issue is that they've become really off coloured.  I think it will be too much as this is definitely (supposed to be) a budget resto. I've been looking at others for sale but they all have some minor damage and colour issues.  In the end I think I'll just need to sand blast them myself and do a respray.

But on my one, the speedo goes up to 300 and says nismo, while the revs only go upto 10k and no nismo logo Dunno how to embed pics into a post so ill attach pic of my cluster and generic google search for reference Is what i have genuine?
