I don't really like the look of the gaurds, front bar and wheels. but I don't care - looks are not really what the car is about! I reckon it will look better with some schtickers to break up all the black. Can't wait to see it in person at Oran Park!

gotta admire them for doing Superlap as the car's first event... there is alot of serious competition at the pointy end of the Pro Class - Markov GTR, BSM GTR, that Evo (was it Bel Garage?), and the old Hi-Octane R32 GTR, and I'm sure JP's Zed will be faster around OP this year too! That's a big ask for a brand new car they're still getting ready less than 2 weeks out from the event!

Harry, to be honest, I haven't even considered if I like the actual look of the car or not funnily enough. The build quality and attention to detail of Mark's work (with other notable input) is what really stands out to me, as is the Aussie ingenuity that's gone into it.

You're very right though, to have the balls to effectively debut this car at a Superlap is a big call, but I have zero doubt that it will perform admirably. I can't see anywhere the car lacks, with the exception of some ground clearance for "the ripple strip" :)

excuse me for a minute.............

.................whimper.... sigh............ there is a good chance I'm touching myself right now

all black, massive widebody, huuuuge sidepipe... the japs would never make something that cool, they would mess it up by making it bright orange or putting chrome vinyl on it... way to go guys!

    • 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
