Coming along nicely......be good to see it finished.....

Looking good! You're not wasting any time, are you? Post more pics as you go along: it is a lovely looking car, and you'll LOVE the manual!

Nope, i work on the car every day from 08.00 untill 18.00. :thumbsup:

All the piping to the Intercooler will be polished alu pipes, and the same for the pipe from turbo to airfilter.

I will post more pictures later today, right now it is 07 i the morning here in Denmark, and i will start working again at 8 o'clock.

When the car i finished, i will make a little video, and show you guys downunder, some danish smoke.

Like I said: you're not wasting any time! Very impressive: when do you expect/hope to have it back on the road?? At this rate, it sounds like you'll only need another 45 minutes! :banana:

when do you expect/hope to have it back on the road??

Hopefully in 2-3 days, then i will put it on the dyno at 0.6 bar, to see the output, the goal is 500+ whp at 1,2 bar, is that not possible, bigger turbine, injectors and another ECU.

What's the Stagea head-count in Denmark roughly? Are they everywhere or are they super rare?

Love what you're doing too. :D

This is the only one in Denmark, as far as i know, is there only 3-4 i Europe.

Thx, sound and more pictures will be posted tomorrow, forgot my camera at the workshop.

hows that for exclusivity... what are the rules for bringing a japanese import to denmark? ours are pretty strict, you cant just bring anything in, and when you do bring a car in, it costs about $3000 worth of work before the government says its safe to drive on our roads.

Maybe if our roads werent so shit it wouldnt be a problem.... [/rant]

When we import a car from Japan, we have to pay 180% in tax, on top of the price for the car, that really suxxxs.

Thats why we only have old cars in denmark.

I payed 45.000 AUD for for my Stag, with a RB25DE engine year 98, what will this car cost i Australia.!!

A BMW 320 new model, will cost 100.000 AUD, whats the price downunder.!!

The RB25DE is too shit to bring into Australia. You can only import the turbo models.

But for 45,000AUD you would get a full bombed off the dick 400awkw+ 260RS.

A base model 320i with no options here is about 55,000AUD + on road costs (registration, tax etc). Maybe 63,000AUD all up.

For 100,000AUD you buy like a 335i or similar.

wow you guys really get the short end of the stick.... I got change from 23k from start to finish including new tyres and rego and i have an immaculate 97 260RS.... (well i havent seen it yet but err yeah.... haha)

Hey guys.

It is up and running right now, it started firste time we turned the key, and it sounds like a million hp, i will think it have around 300-320 hp at 0.5 bars boost, i have tryed to upload a video at youtybe, but without luck, video vil be added later.

We have adjusted the ignition, fuel, airflow, and it have the right amoung off fuel, when we boost, or cruising, new Apexi ECU will be attached sone, and bigger injectors, bigger fuel-pump, the i hope for 550 hp at 1,2 bar, it shut be possible.

Is it possible to upload a video, 10,2 mb at this site.!!

    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
    • Hi, Marek here 🙋‍♂️. I finally fulfilled my longtime dream - recently bought Stagea and now waiting for it to arrive in Poland. There's only few of these in my country, and one of the owners  recommended mi this forum as a source of all the info i'd need since now i own one  so here i am.  
    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
    • and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.  
    • Oh, you are right. But, in Australia E10 is based on 91RON fuel and ends up being 94RON. Hence it being the cheaper option for economy cars. The more performance oriented cars go for the 98RON fuel that has no ethanol mixed in. The only step up we have left then at some petrol stations is E85.
