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

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      The incentives are mostly the same, yes. Ethanol is cheap compared to the cost of doing 98-100 RON with crude oil alone. 87 to 93-94 AKI all with E10. In 2020 Canada mandated E10 as a part of their "renewable fuel standard" and is supposedly going to go to E15 in 2030. In California where there are only 8 refineries with two threatening to shut down next year it's been over 20 years now of E10 and 91 AKI maximum because there's just not enough refinery capacity or crude oil supply relative to the demand for premium unleaded fuel. And CARB's low carbon fuel standard means functionally none of the diesel available at the pump is made from crude oil anymore. It's almost all entirely 20% biodiesel blended with 80% renewable diesel (hydrotreated vegetable oil) now. The number of gasoline vehicles that support E15 or higher ethanol concentrations is surprisingly low, I can't imagine it being wise to play tricks like this without flex fuel sensors in most of the fleet.

      It's almost certainly the same as the one next to it.

      Blue slip

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      South Australia, which is hardly as far behind as the rest pf Oz makes out, and who is also not a paragon of progressiveness (read that as over-legislation) in the area of vehicle standards, has this to say on the subject: Adjustable coil-over suspension Aftermarket adjustable coil-over suspension components are suspension units that incorporate an external thread on the main body and corresponding threaded spring saddle that allows the vehicle's suspension height to be varied. If fitting aftermarket or coil-over suspension components you must submit an Application to modify a light motor vehicle form and a report from a light vehicle engineering signatory (LVES).

      R34 GTR Seats / No longer reclining

      By bilbo117 · Posted

      Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers

      Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.
