Hey guys, just thought I'd let you know my car is finally up for sale. If you know anyone looking for a cheap modded manual Stagea, point them here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/19...-M-t209261.html

I'm starting at $18,000, but if it takes too long to sell I'll start dropping it.

The car needs someone who can afford to give it some TLC, as with a new baby and looking at buying a house my funds are severly limited.

Cheers,

Leshy

Well good luck with the sale. There are so many for sale these days.

Not so many manual dual sunrooves with leather though I think.. :)

Sorry Nick, change is a sign of progress though. No doubt I'll get another stagea (M35 me thinks) in a few years, just have to get a house first and settle down.

good luck with the sale :D i actually believe it might be the icing on the cake so to speak...so many people want manuals and leather interiors so you might just be in luck :nyaanyaa: I dont think youll have a problem selling...its seems that some stageas are hanging around for ages to sell and some that have only been advertised for a few weeks or a month are getting snapped up. Strange!!

Good luck :D

Youve just gotta have what they want i guess. I think 18k is a decent asking price for what the car is. Luxury cruiser, thats been tastefully modded to handle very well and make decent power. High kms, but doesnt mean much in the grand scheme of things.

On a different subject - got those taillights leshy. Cheers. Trader rating +1

Thanks mate, i try my best :D

I'll be open to offers, but as you can see, I haven't gone overboard with mods, and a lot of them are useful. the tow bar has come in handy heaps, and the manual has increased my fuel efficiency a fair bit. I'm averaging 12L/100km combined driving now. I'm sad to see her go, but i'm having trouble keeping her in a good condition. I'd rather sell now than completely wreck it before someone else can take care of it.

sad to hear :)

its VERY difficult to price stageas in today's market.

I completely understand your reasons though. Mine is also for sale due to cost reasons, they just cost a little bit more to keep on the road compared to say aussie cars.

The stagea's been a fantastic "sports" wagon to own and drive but the budget is important and I've kind of had my fun with the car and am ready to move on.

Life priorities seem to catch up with all of us hey...in one way or another.

Pretty much the reason l'm keeping mine.

Looked at getting a CRX/civic (not del-sol crx either) to drive around in while saving for a house, but with so many stagea's for sale, chances of me selling and making it worth it isn't worth the time.

I need someone to just hit my car enough to write it off ... its well and truly over-insured.

Gotta say l like the kit you have, subtle yet enough there to add a bit flair.

Think mine's gonna come off soon and just drive it stock for a while.

I sold mine for 17,000 drive away with everything. Though, I had no leather and was auto.

Although this doesnt have the suspension or wheels of mine it is manual. Big +ve for many. I think it shouldn't sell for less than 16-17.

Good luck, I understand.

Oh yeah, now I see the coilovers and all that. I had the whole SK group buy kit, but I am certain now re-reading this that they would be very on par.

I must have skipped over it as its not divided into sections (Engine/Box, Suspension, Body etc). Maybe make it like that to be a bit easier to read?

they dont sell quick

my Vr V8 ex cop 118000kms 215kw took over 6months to sell, for only 7k (wanted 11k originally)

my fully sicko CBR took over 6months as well, of proper advertising (paid) and sold for under 8k (wanted 12)

hold it and dont drop too much, no point in giving it away

advertise where you can (ebay, carpoint, etc), just that I dont think they sell quick unless they are "eagerly priced" ie 9k

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
