definately looks like a base model RS four. But im inclined to think its a 25t X Four.

This model came with wood grain, optional privacy glass but is supposed to have a front spoiler and fog lamps.

You may want to check it out.

'Tis a 97. and does anyone one have any more info on this ARX variant? I wouldn't mind finding out a bit more - and it is definately badged up as a RS Four

May be the 97 version, just an option i guess. Could be the ARX style before they started badgin thtem as such, was what i was implying. Definitely looks like the soft-roader version. Maybe the lip was an optional extra that everyone but errr.... your cars previous owner opted for? Same as the glass? But for some reason the dude couldnt live without his woodgrain.

Jays is a 96, same colour, and has the lip and privacy glass, badges as RSfour, mine is 97, same colour, and also has the lip and privacy glass, so its not a year-model issue.

Never seen woodgrain though...

Yours looks just like the brochure car, which is also badged RSfour, but has a grille that noone here has. (again - til i get mine this week...)

Once I have my sweaty lil mits on the keys to "Z Beast" then I may change my handle, but I am having toomuch fun learning from all you fine people to bother right now :P

Haha nice. Well it could be worse - ive had the handle 'qikstagea' for more than a year and mine is probably the slowest on here hey. in a few days ill show you wat your stagea looks like with a Nismo bodykit and 18s hey. I get it back from the shop soon.

Did you find out much about the history of your stagea? as far as why yours is the only one to surface on SAU without the front lip? Hey have a look under you front bar to see if there was ever a lip bolted on there ie are there bolt holes etc... very curios. yours is a one of a kind, dale.

I will be getting it on Tues this week so I will know for sure, but when I went to have a look at it, there were no obvious holes etc from where it might have been removed, but don't quote me on it yet.

The really weird thing about the car is the fact that it has been in the country since 2003. It was actually the 3rd Stagea to be complianced in WA.

More details as they come to hand.

Nah - I had to put it back until Thursday due to work commitments, and I will be busy all thursday and friday rolling naked across the bonnet moaning "mine mine mine" so I may be able to chuck some pics up on Saturday sometime

:)

    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
