i think the stagea has its own type of brake pads from memory ( i have not had to replace mine as yet!!) and they wont be cheap as they wont be listed in australian parts lists.

i think the cheapest someone said on here was around $180 for a front axle set!!!!!

i've got another question, i was reading another thread and it said lsd is only on the rs4 s stageas, arents all stageas lsd??? if not then how does the all wheel drive system operate???

No, not all Stageas have LSDs fitted. AFAIK, the ATTESA system uses electronically-controlled clutch packs in the centre diff, so there's always rear drive, and the split to the front is constantly variable. The diffs (both front and rear) are standard "single-spinner" units, but because there's generally so much traction available, the LSD is only really needed when you're REALLY pushing the car.

Have a look at the WikiPedia explanations of ATTESA, and how it's applied in Skylines, GT-Rs and other north-south engined Nissans.

There's also a few words confirming that the Stagea was the only RB25DET engined car equipped with AWD (scroll down to the R33 section).

    • I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...
    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
