No problems mate. It's one of those things I want to do, just can't really justify it yet.

Plus it kind of worries me ordering parts from a bunch of numbers!

Hey Jase, yes the thought of ordering from those part numbers is abit of a worry, imagine it rocks up and its the wrong colour or something, i'd not be happy.

Yep that's exactly what I'm worried about.

I think I'll have to look into getting this FAST software myself..

Yeah, but even with Fast, you'd have to physically see the car whose VIN you're using to verify that the colour was the same... Actually, that gives me an idea: I hope there's a 260RS coming on the qld meet....

Good thinking Micah!

How many different coloured interiors are there?

I know in a series 2 the gunmetal grey plastic trims are slightly darker than a series 1

Micah,

The trim I have is out of a series 1 260rs, which would be the same as the series 1 RS4.

As far as I am aware, the parts that have been quoted for the console parts should for a series 1, as the people who have ordered them all own series 1 cars and have not complained about any colour differences.

I am the only series 2 owner that has converted on here, but luckly I picked up a s/hand series 2 console.

interesting point darrin, you got me thinking.

I have s1 converted with s2 manual parts and I spent some time starting at it today. Both the colour and pattern are very slightly different between the s1 bits and s2 bits- but you would never notice without staring and myself and no-one else have ever mentioned noticing it.

Guys don't worry about the part numbers in the thread. I was also worried (of course) so double checked them all and they were fine. I ordered directly from the list and got exactly what I needed. Also all parts are the same colour so nothing to worry about. The trim on the centre console does not match the s1 interior, not a problem for me because I retrimmed in leather.

Couldn't have put it better myself Duncan :rolleyes:

Took quite a bit or research on FAST, and a lot of triple checking to get the right numbers, and yes I was very anxious when I ordered the parts, but it all turned out sweet. And I'm glad other people have benefited.

As other people would know, there is only two interior colours available with the Stagea, the Z & J, so if your not sure, get your VIN FASTed.

  • 3 weeks later...

I have, i got the blank plate for the cup holders and the blank plate for the auto indicators on the dash. I had problems with stock not being available, but as soon as it was, it took 3 days to get to me from Japan.

Yeah I know, I saw your car after I ordered the parts. I don't need 4 cup holders in the front though, 2 is enough for me.

4 cup holders? :P I don't need 4 either..

If I use the part numbers in this thread will I get 4 cup holders?

the manual console has the cupholders in the console. the auto stageas has them popping out from under the climate control. if you leave the pop-out ones in, and install the manual centre console, you get 4.

    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
