that economy is incredible.

Not bad huh? Its a little bit higher here in Brisbane due to more congestion on my route to work, but on a 10-20min trip to work in very much stop-start traffic here it still gets less than 12.5L/100km which i think is fantastic for a car of this size and performance.

I'm hoping for a little bit more than $10K (understandably). :down:

PRICE NOW DROPPED TO $13,500!!

This is a VERY good deal for a stagea. If you know anyone who wants one, they will need to be quick to snatch this up!!

I will consider all reasonable offers.

FAARK ME!!!

im off to the bank.....

and dont worry oldschoolers, im keeping the R30 project....

will this pass a roadworthy inspection? and how much rego is left?

Should pass roadworthy no probs. I'm happy to organise that (was planning on getting it done this or next week).

The only modifications that may be questionable are the larger turbo, safc, and boost controller but all of those are well hidden and the car runs very well so I dont see it being an issue. Either way I would be more comfortable to sell it with a RWC for peace of mind all round.

Current SA rego expires 27th March. not sure if its easier to go from SA to VIC or from QLD to VIC...but a QLD Roadworthy cert should make it pretty hassle free anyway...

I'm hoping to stick to the $13,500 price because I know it will sell at this price. Its a bargain.

Let me know if/when you want to come and have a look at it :(

will be in brissy from the 25th to the 30th...

will be staying at my bros place in carindale... are you far from there?

might get my old man to take it fro a test for me if thats all right... if he likes it i will get him to put a fatwad deposit on it (cash...)

will call soon

actually i got my dates wrong, will be up next tuesday night... so is an evening between wed & fri any good??

yep any night next week will be fine :blink: just give me a call to confirm on the day or something and i'll make sure i'm home :D

just a side note

the mods to this are pretty good, im thinking there is a fair bit more tunign potential?

am i right assuming you left it how it is now to keep the good fuel economy?

and would there be a significant power increase with a 040 fuel pump, GTR injectors, and a re-tune

and a front-mount kit?

off to bank in next 30 min...

er, yes. :(

Basically the main limitations at the moment are the fuel pump and intercooler.

Yeah that and the cost of mods (both in extra fuel and the initial purchase cost per item).

Any increase from this point is only possible through pumping more fuel through the system so I think its safe to say its at its most efficient setup right now, and has a lot of potential hidden away :P

and would there be a significant power increase with a 040 fuel pump, GTR injectors, and a re-tune

and a front-mount kit?

hehe, YES! I'd say with these mods you'd EASILY reach 200awkw. To go further, I'd recommend upgrading the tuning ability, maybe a powerfc (speak to 'tangles' from SA who has done this recently to his auto stagea s1) or otherwise I've heard the GReddy E-manage can work well - provided your tuner knows how to install and tune these on an RB25.

Bearing in mind the auto gearbox will start to suffer the further you step above 200awkw. There's a few stageas with 200awkw doing just fine after 1-2 years but 225awkw seems to be the breaking point for a stock auto gearbox.

It DOES have the auto shift kit as well so this should give you a bit extra strength in the auto gearbox. It was fitted by MV Automatics in SA so speak to them regarding how much effect the shift kit will have to reliability.

Just FYI I now have a QLD RWC. There were no issues (as expected).

I've also had quite a lot of interest in the car this week, not surprising because it is a VERY low price for a series 2 Stagea!

However as yet I still have not taken any deposit on it so it'll be strictly first come first served.

Once I receive a deposit I will post again to let you all know :D

Good luck with that sale man.

Damn, if its still around in the next week, hell I might buy it (I shouldn't ... money gotta go to a new house).

:D

Come on guys, my stagea is still for sale...

I know the price is LOW but there is nothing at all wrong with the car (maybe I should ask for more?? hehe).

Price now dropped to $13000 if anyone is interested, or MAKE AN OFFER :P

Wanting to sell it asap. Need to pay off whats left owing on it.

STILL FOR SALE, HOPING TO SELL IT THIS WEEKEND!!

Please make an offer...

If you're after a very cheap series 2 stagea with good performance and awesome potential then this is for you!!

There are NO problems with it. Just want to sell it quick before the car I'm hoping to buy also sells...

EDIT: car is now SOLD. sorry.

    • Did you panel beat the dents or have you tried to repair this only using filler?  Is your sanding block soft/flexible and is following the shape of the panel rather then just knocking down the high points? 
    • I haven't knocked them down yet. I think I made the repair more complex than it should have been. I had rock chips combined with waviness and dents and I tackled it all in one because it was near each other and just end up wasting a bunch of bog lol. I'll knock down those areas and see how I go. And yep what you are saying at the end is correct. I think I might be sanding the top of a steep hill then my sanding block falls into the dent and gets rid of the guidecoat if that makes sense. Though shouldnt unless I'm covering too big of an area with not a long enough block. I'll try something new and provide some updates. Getting there though! Thanks as always.  
    • Yeah makes sense, hard to comment on your situation without seeing what your doing. I was talking generally before, I would not be looking to randomly create low spots with a hammer to then have to fill them.  It's hard without seeing what your doing, it sounds like you are using the guide coat to identify low spots, as you're saying the panel is still wavy. I don't see how you're not ending up with patches of guide coat remaining in a wavy panel? Once the high spots are knocked down to the correct level, surely to have a wavy panel you need low spots. And those low spots would have guide coat still in them?
    • So I'll put filler past the repair area a bit to make sure I don't miss anything. Then I'll block it until it's almost level, put the guidecoat, then keep blocking until it's gone. Then it's still wavy.  In regards to hitting the panel, I saw this video might give more context - Skip to 0:47 he knocks it down. But yeah I'm sanding until the guidecoat is gone then checking because otherwise my filler is still well above the bodyline. Unless what you're saying is I should put guidecoat around it early, surrounding the filler then stip once it's gone?
    • I refreshed the OEM injectors with the kit and connected it up. It now ideals okay even with the IACV removed. Driving still has the same cutoff issue like the 550cc injectors so the issue is somewhere else. I bought FPG's Fuel Pump Hanger. I will be installing it next, but it is not as straightforward as I thought it was with my limited wiring knowledge and no instruction on the specific model I purchased (FPG-089). I also got the incorrect billet clamp as I could not find info on the OEM sizing.
