Many moons ago, when the world was young and frivolous, men were men, women were grateful and sheep were nervous, someone on these forums posted some scans of a HPI magazine article that was done on the Stagea when it was first being considered for compliance. I have lost all but 1 of the pics but I am really hoping someone still has them and can repost them for me.

I would really like to find out what issue the article was in and I would even be interested in buying a copy if anyone has one they will part with.

The main reason for this flurry of interest is because I have just found out that the car in the artcile is the one I am now a proud owner of!

In breathless anticipation of an answer....

Thanks

Thats the one!!

No wonder I didn't find it on a topic search - its a HPI magazine, not a bl00dy zoom - it says so on the bottom of the page!

Now, if any one has a copy of that issue they are willing to part with, PUHLEEEEEEASE let me know either here or on PM.

If I got a dollar for everyone thats has said "yes I have a copy, no I don't want to sell it" I would be able to give you $100 and have enough left over for a bottle of jacks and a feed of KFC.... :P

I have even tried to buy a back issue from HPI but they don't have any left

:P

I have a crapload of street machine mags from 1994 to present if anyone wants to work out a deal for swapsies

Have you tried ordering a back issue? Slim chance they will have any but worth a shot...

Sorry! Should have read your post more carefully!!!

Post up a WTB with a price, never know your luck, probably better off looking outside the Stagea area of the site too (if you haven't already) as Stagea owners would more likely want to hang onto an issue that had a Stagea feature in it? That is what I would do anyway. You are playing to the wrong crowd here!

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
