Hi guys, :thumbsup:

I was approached by a friend to buy a Stagea Rear Strut Brace. If anybody else wants 1 please let me know. As it was his idea I gave him the choice as to which 1 to buy, He has gone with 'Greddy'.

Pictures attached,

This is not a stagea strut brace I just wanted to show what they look like.

Price is $250 delivered, These are Brand New. Delivery would be around 5 working days.

Please fell free to ask any questions.

I recently fitted a rear strut brace to my car, which has the full SK works on it: The rear brace was the most dramatic improvement in handling so far: it feels massively more stable and sure of itself... I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone with a Stagea...

For the record, I have absolutely no association at all with Jin Man: we have never met or spoken: I am just an enormously impressed stag owner with a rear strut brace :wacko:

how do u find the compromise of space in the rear? kinda defeats having a wagon if u got a metal bar across the back

I don't really notice it, to be honest... I had to work around it when I picked up the 2 toilets for the house, but other than that, most stuff fits underneath: I can still carry the mower, etc...

That said, My car is being promoted to weekend-only duties, so will no longer be carrying any loads, so in my opinion, it's more than worth it. The handling is sublime :wub:

not so much as a limited time but a limited amount. 5 got a discount so 5 have been ordered. Once they are sold that will be it. 2 paid for, 3 left. :)

Have a look at the Syline strut brace fitted to this Stagea:

No idea how its bolted on.

:P I think they might have actually drilled holes in the side of the tower and bolted it on the side. Wonder if the holes stretched over time?

fair enough, any chance you could hold one 'til this thursday?

D.

Would love to see some photos of these actual ones installed in the back of a stag :)

Agreed. If I could just see a pic of how it would look, I'd be interested in one.

:happy:

Kind of defeats the purpose in a way. It would work far better on the strut tops!

Plus wouldn't drilling holes in the body owrk be a big no-no defect? Not to mention loss of rear space.

I guess thats a good reason why not to try and make a skyline 1 fit. :)

Hopefully when the first people receive theirs they will generous enough to show pics.

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
