OMG THE STEERING WHEEL IS ON THE WRONG SIDE!!!

Yep, it still messes with my head seeing s13 interiors the other way around! :)

You'll find a lot of people who are fans of the RB20 here, I'm not one of them, (nicely sorted out engine build by the way) but they're here anyway if you need help. While you might consider it unfair not being able to easily get SR20 bits, I also think it's grossly unfair how easy it is for you guys to get guns and how damn hard and expensive it is to get them here! :D

nah the sr20 parts are very easy to find, the engines are everywhere now. its abit harder to find a stock, non-swapped 240sx" than a 240sx with an sr. its the rb20(specifically) thats hard to find parts for. but I got what your saying, lol.

actually 2 thirds of the world drive on the right... we're the minority. Also mass motor transport came about in 1900's, many years after they gained independence in the 1770's. And the first dude to make a car was european (french or german... can't remember), so they'd have driven on the right anyways >_<

don't give me answers on topic!

but if you go back to the origins of it it goes back to roman times when they drove their charriots on the left so the the wip wasn't on the street side (since most people were right handed and carried their wip in their right hand). then when napolean came along he just made it however he wanted but he never got as far as england so they stayed the way they were.

      Nice one, I'd argue that the white S1 RS260 is certainly the best looking of the Stageas. And yes, fully agree on the forum situation. It's a bit of a shame, but at least SAU is a good place to be. I found the facebook groups to give me FOMO because people were trying to one-up each other and show off in some way. Feels much more natural here. There are people with seriously nice builds, but I can appreciate it rather than it making me question my life choices. Might be that people are more open with sharing how much work/money/suffering it takes to actually get there.

      Evening, wanted to pop in and finally register to say hi to everyone here on SAU!   It's been a while since I've been active on a forum, but back in the day I used to be relatively active on ClubLexus and other hobby-related forums. I'm glad to see SAU is still around, since with the advent of Facebook and Discord it seems forums aren't what they once were. As a recent new owner of an S1 260RS Stagea, I've found so many older guides and helpful tips from SAU that I figured I needed to join and say a grave thank you. My recent acquisition has only become legal in the US for the past year, and knowing that similar car enthusiasts from across the pond have already figured out the kinks and tricks to get these 25+ year old cars running well. I look forward to diving into more of the SAU forums as well as hopefully contribute some info myself for future posterity.   As a pic tax, here is one of the few good photos I have of my Stagea. I hope to get way more in the future!

      Is this where I say "Hey man my airbox cost me horsepower in my Naturally Aspirated Engine"? (I know you need them for legality in NSW)

      1.5mm alloy folded up, it will need a tweek, as the angled bend only got to around 45° as that was the max that the break press would get with the other bends, and I needed a fair bit more, but and the alloy is easy to bend too my will by hand once I trim the lower section out I'll Dremel out and form the angle and mounting point on the lower section when time permits  As for the lid, I'm looking at going a "cap", instead of a flat lid to hide the fixtures a bit
