Cheers for that i think i stumbeled apon a similar one earlier on today. i can say i havnt ever seen so much variation in one car! very difficult to work out whats what really.

tho it looks like a series 2 car goes for around 400000-700000 maybe cheeper maybe a bit more. but somewhere around that. which makes for a pretty cheep daily driver/tow car/wagon that i can fit shit in

only 2 models of the series 2 other than the autech are eligible for import and they are the rear wheel drive turbo models and the all wheel drive turbo models and they seem to range hugely in price at auction depending on condition and mods. but compared to anything else they are still a bargain

Yeah this is what i've noticed! if all else fails i will just settle for a series 1 and try this 34 front end conversion seems you can pick up that kit for around 3000 + shipping etc.

they seem to be a great car for the price and i'm in need of a practacle daily driver that i can park wherever i like with no worries. + the towing factor is what i am really after.

i'm thinking i need around 15k at most on the road.

then i always have a 32gtr dog box at home if i need a manual conversion (if its easy) haha

As discussed elsewhere, you will find this is a rough guide only. F'r instance, I have a 97 S1 that is badged as a 25X, but it has the RB25-DET and a few other trinkets that the guide says were only available in the RSFourV so you obviously have to take into account the original purchasers preferences, what options boxes he ticked and what the original dealer might have thrown in to sweeten the deal.

To me, the biggest appeal of owning something as unique as an import is the journey to figure out exactly what you have.

Eh Glen, If you think that then you don't unsderstand Stagea's.

There are 3 series in the range and 20 models.

These are the RS series, The XG series, and the Type B series, and this is only for the series 2 cars!!! The ranges on the series 1's was similar, but I dont think that the Type B existed.

If anyone wants a copy of the spreadsheet that shows every option for every model then email me and I'll send it on. Sure you can get an S2 cheap, but it wont be the same as a 25t RS Four V Prime Edition (unless you are really really lucky). The Japs aren't that stupid to give cars away. The 25t X Four is actually the base model of the 4wd's, then the RS Four is next up. The rest you need to work out from the spread sheet. It aint easy though!!

Thanks for that mate. gives me a bit more info to go on

I just bought my 97 rs four v and it has leather seats and factory momo steering wheel. This does not appear on the options list in the link above.

You have a Dayz Edition, well done.

Oh yeah.... damn I forgot to mention those!!! Then of course apart from the factory spec cars you have others.

With the Autech for instance it's all a matter of ordering what you want. I did see a blue Auctech, go for over 2 million..... is there anything rarer! Then of course there are always the dreded IPO's. These are INTERNAL PRODUCTION ORDERS..... they can usually be placed by any company official, who is high enough in the pecking order or maybe even for friends and relatives, (nice way to show off). This has resulted in unusual stuff, like cars with a motor that shoudln't be there, or an amount of options that werent' released to the general public. It was common in the USA. Not saying that Nissan would have such a thing but I bet if Mr Yamamoto San wanted a Stagea with a 260RS and only rear wheel drive but the interior of a Prime edition, in bayside blue with a silver roof, I bet he could get one. And it'd be factory backed and warrantied!! Now there's something to think about ..... good luck looking for it .... ha ha. :(

    • Sane enough. Remove the roof liner, because the acid will go everywhere.
    • Thanks guys, I really appreciate the help and experienced opinions.  I have spent a lot of my life working on boats so I'm pretty good with fibreglass. I'll take everybody's advice in here;  I'll cut a little more of the 2nd layer away as it's a bit crunchy rust and also it's sitting high now. Then I'll wire brush it all a bit to get off anything loose, then I'll soak the bejesus out of it all in rust converter. I'll make sure to get a little hose piece and feed it into all the holes and gaps between the roof layers. Then I'll fibreglass up the holes.  Then I'll get a pallet of filler and mix it with 3 buckets of hardener and hope that is enough to build up the roof corner.  Does that sound sane? Is one type of filler better than others for this?
    • My goals for it atm are to get it registered, respray and some mild power gains eventually... I picked up the car from an elderly gentleman near the border of NSW and VIC, its honestly a bit rough and looks like its been driven on a farm (because there was so much dirt underneath). Last week I dropped the subframe and emptied the old fuel out + added a new fuel pump (think the old one went bad from old fuel). Now I'm onto fixing a coolant leak at the rear of the engine + adding a new radiator as the old one is corroded. After that i have a new bumper, coils (as the old were leaking) and lots more
    • Welcome buddy! Plenty on here and YouTube. What are your plans for it? Good luck with the Rwc and Rego bud!
    • Love this so much! Please post a photo when you have a bike on the trailer.  I was a little bit worried about having a tow bar on the Skyline, but having it hidden behind the number plate is genius
