Greetings :D

Recently purchased myself an RS4 series 2 Nismo in black. Loving the car! :D

Only 33K kms on the clock. Drove it 1700kms from Sydney and it ran like a dream.

Already fitted SatNav, TV tuner, DVD player and sound system for entertainment.

I've got a T3/T4 hybrid turbo coming for it, as well as a front mount intercooler kit, hi flow dump pipe, 3" system.

Will be unichipped and dynoed for good 'useable' power.

But I gotta stop spending money on it soon LOL :D

hello and welcome!

the black with the gold mags looks excellent!

and 2 stageas in the family hey? do your parents own an oil rig?

No. No parents who own an oil rig. I stopped living off mummy decades ago LOL

What? A guy can't have enough money for 2 RS4s? :laughing-smiley-014:

I have a decent paying job and no bills to worry about ... so my money go towards my toys!

As well as the Stageas, I have a Suzuki Liana GS sports model (car) ...

And my bikes are GSXR600 race bike (for sale), a Suzuki TL1000R modded and as a Rizla Suzuki replica, and a beautiful Italian ... MV Agusta Brutale.

I think I have too many toys :D

Welcome aboard! TWO Stageas is bound to bring a lot of enjoyment, and when you add that nice lot of bikes it can't hurt.

You almost ruined it with using "Liana" and "sports" in the same phrase - that's a big No-No - but we'll let you off this time. :D

The Liana was a very good car given today's petrol prices, but it wasn't enough "fun" :D But if I had to own one, it had to have sports suspension and bodykit so it at least didn't look too "girly" LOL

So I thought bugger the fuel prices ... time to own another fast car! :D

Here's a pic of the Brutale ... pure italian beauty and engineering ...

Sold the Liana anyway as I crashed my bike and broke my shoulder some 5 weeks ago. No way could I drive a manual.

Now the shoulder is healing and I can drive a car again! :D So I'm driving the RS4 when I can.

welcome bud and nice ride you have there good luck with it i bought mine 9 months ago and i still cant stop spending money on it .i keep saying i will stop with the mods but i can never help my self .and in ssshonky defence i fairly sure he was talking about the stagea was never good on fuel and i can vouch for that the old $90 bucks dont get you far . good luck with your sweet ride mate .

haha.. yeah I was refering to them being thirsty beasts indeed.. but you sound like you got the fuel bill sorted :D

see we arent the only ones that buy one stagea and then just have to buy another :)

Welcome looks like a really nice example of a stag ;)

Thanks Kirstie! The Stag is an excellent car. I had intended to buy one from an importer and resell it locally for a bit of $ and then buy another one to keep. But I purchased this one and fell in love with it. And at 33,000kms only and such top condition, I had to keep it.

So now I've bought another Stagea to drive for a bit and then sell to a friend :whistling: But I'll probably end up keeping this one too :laughing-smiley-014:

There's a few friends of mine who are into Stageas. We've already been on a few cruises. We gotta get a "Stag party" happening! :)

beautiful bike :) im a big fan of MV Agusta - especially the F4 CC

You can't go past the beautiful engineering of these things. I admired these bikes for years ... now I own one. :)

Very nice looking Stag you got there, I agree the black and gold looks sweeet. Very low k's too, thats only 3300 km's a year, which is around 8 tanks of the expensive petroly stuff a year. I've only had my stag a bit over a week and filled her up twice already! :whistling: Just keep an eye on things like seals because with such low km's they would have a tendency to perish over time.

Reuben, the car is rego'd in NSW, but are you taking it back interstate, or do you live in/around Sydney (I can't recognise any of the spots in your photos, and can't make out what state is printed on the number plates either)?

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
