11 Stageas, 500 Bikes and 34degrees... A great way to share thoughts, meet some equally car-nuttish fraks and draw many puzzled looks... Well done everyone but especially Micah for setting it up! A track day might be fun one day soon!

Here's a pic or two...

Some nice cars, lovely sounds - esp. Micah's and GreenGhost!

Thanks for the steering wheel straighten, Darrin!

Wheels, Kits, Diffs, Exhausts, Coolers, Intake... I'm sure we've all seen something or discussed something that's revised our directions for the Stageas. Will be interesting to see what changes over the next little while!

Thanks all was fun... sorry Liz and I had to split early... had family do on.

I will be looking at organising a trackday in April at Morgan Park.

I will post a thread when I have date and prices asking for interest.

This wont be a total Stagea day but can be incorporated into one... nice drive, lunch, and 1/2 day of laps and drive back. Would be a big day but worth it.

At Coomera BP, just before we departed:

Micah (rb26stagea) - "looks like a good turnout; at least 10 cars..."

Hugh (66yostagea) - "And here comes another one" *points at said car* ......."Oh sh*t, it's a Volvo".

So jealous right now. We'll have to organise one for six months time. Or earlier. July/August.

The Bayside Blue Prime Ed. stands out, same with the kitted silver S2. Any RS260's?

Maybe a drive north thru the sunsine coast/maleny/kicoy hinterland and finish at the big kart track for some fun and lunch

Was 1 series 1 260rs there

Great day. EXCELLENT day for the Stageas.

Thank you all, except the Camray.

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
