Is Your Stagea Your Last Car?

[deanoss]

Won't be my last car as i'm on 20 and i'm already on my 4th car ... But i think the Stagea is one car i'd keep as a project if i brought a daily driver in the near future.. how many show quality Stagea's do you see? or Stagea's with the potential to do 10's?.. Id like to do something different.. pull the RB25 out and sell it to make way for a 30/26 or pick up a cheap Supra or Aristo half cut and do a 2JZ-GTE conversion (puts flame suit on)..

Man Im with you. Twin turbo 2jz in a stag would be the just right.......if you could make it fit. (exhaust on the wrong side for a start)

There is a Stagea being built with a nissan 4.1L AWD V8 twin turbo. Power goal is 800hp+

For those who haven't seen it check out this NZ Stagea "Pure Methamphetamachine". I miss living in NZ jap cars were so cheap and we had so much freedom to do whatever we liked to them. Oh well OZ weather is better

f**k yeah... read about a VH that came in AWD and thought "its only a matter of time"

BAH! If only I had the finances...

Transplant the VK45 from AWD Cima (Crate engine built by Impul).

Twin Holset HX40 turbo's

Quad exhaust to make it sing

mmmmm..... now where is that winning lotto ticket?

If anything happens to my bottom end I will be throwing a 30 bottom end in there, we've built a few 30's now including a 4wd one and IMO the Stag could really do with the 3L (especially with my laggy turbo) as opposed to my 32 where the abundance of torque really isn't needed but makes for a lot of fun! heheh

Should be easily done, we recently shoehorned a 25/30 into my mates 32gts4.. what a ball tearer!

and back to the topic;

I've owned a few cars for my age (25) i've had: A datsun pulsar, ford xb and xd (boats), 74 rover p6b 3l v8 (awesome car, taxi wrote it off), vw Kombi, vb commonwhore 4.2 v8, 83 subi wagon, 84 subi wagon wrx running gear (still have).

So I think it's fair to say that my new s2 stagea is the best car I've had and it's the only car I've seriously thought about keeping for the rest of my dayz (apart from the rover).

But it's hard to say if it will be the last car I buy.........
