Hello all. I am a noob in the Stagea world, having just picked up a stock m35 for 20 gs with 70,000 kms.

Just bought it 3 days ago and picking it up this weekend(yay)! I actually only heard of the Stags 2 days b4 buying one, prior to that I was planning to pick up a v8 Holden Adventra.

When my friend pointed the Stag out to me I was stoked, I didn't really want a holden or ford as I am Nissan thru and thru, but need a wagon to replace my Pathy as its getting on and I want luxury as well as space for family!!

I live in Brisbane's bayside, and am curious if there are many others of our kind getting round here, I would love to do a Tambourine run someday soon!!

Looking 4ward to chatting guys!

Good call - I'd hate to think how thirsty the LS1 Adventra would be...

Welcome to the 'club' of luxury import 'wagonning' (to all you M35 owners - don't forget that the '96 S1 was where it all started!)

You'll be very happy with your purchase, and the depreciation isn't to shabby either.

Another M35 in brissie - welcome!! :sick:

Great choice too. I've not driven a holden lately but compared to ford falcons (wagon especially) the stagea gives a much better ride (in my admittedly biased opinion) - better handling, and more power. And for the first time, the M35 now delivers more torque than the falcon too.

You'll enjoy it I'm sure. :laugh:

Where abouts on the bayside are you

Redlands area - Victoria point. Don't think there are many Stags down this way, even less likely to be many m35s. But that's what I like - owning a car and not parking next to the car model in the shopping carpark.

P.S. pics soon - I don't pick up car til Saturday

I live in Victoria Point as well. I have a half finished C34 with R34 GTR front.

I never drive it on the street. I think I have done less than 1500k's in 2 1/2 years of owning it.

I will PM you my address. Drop around for a look and chat if you want. I would like to have a good look at a M35 up close.

There is 1 other white s2 C34 in Vic Point as well.

Looking good!! Thats an awesome price considering the current market conditions. I bought mine when the exchange rate was at its best - just before things started heading south. I think if you'd bought the same car back then it'd be pretty close to what I paid - so yeah I'm impressed that you're getting one for that price from a dealer.

I've noticed a lot of M35 prices dropping lately, but I dont think they'll drop much below $20K for some time yet.

Looks like we'll need to have a brissie cruise sometime :)

      1992 R32 GT-R Race Car

      By bardabe · Posted

      I'm selling my personal race car. 1992 BNR32 Skyline GT-R About eight years ago the engine developed the dreaded low oil pressure problem. I removed it and found the issue. However shortly after I moved half way across the country, moved my work shop, bought a house, got married, then moved my shop again to it's permanent location for the time being. in turn I do not have the time to race this car as it should be. In turn the engine I built for this car will end up in my street car and this car I hope finds a home with someone who can use it to it's full potential. The roll bar was built by Jason Noren Fabricaiton in Pomona California to SCCA and NASA Specs. The car used to compete in redline time attack and global time attack enthusiast class. It also has a fire suppression system.  The car is with me at my workshop in Kyle Texas, USA. Shipping it is no problem, I can personally deliver the car to the port of either Houston or Los Angeles. Any other port depending on where it is may require transport but we can always work that out.   The chassis itself is rust free, rear quarters and under fenders are free of any rust so it's a very solid foundation for anyone who wishes to move forward with it. As posted and at the asking price of $20,000 USD the car includes all of the following;   All OEM Body panels, front fenders, rear bumpers etc.  OEM Nissan Projector headlamps (Pictured N1 lamps were removed) OEM Nismo Side Skirts / Extensions OEM Rear Spats  Front & Rear Subframes are installed car is full roller Rear Subframe has Cusco Camber Arms, Whiteline HICAS Elimination Front Subframe has Whiteline tension rods and whiteline Sway bars w/ endlinks.  Buddy Club N1 Coilovers All chassis wiring and engine wiring is in tact. Attessa System is fully in tact and was functional before engine removal.  BCNR33 GT-R Brembo Brakes F+R with Endless MX72 Plus Pads, DBA Rotors & Stainless Steel Brake lines Billion Racing Radiator Billion Radiator Hoses Fluidyne Engine Oil Cooler Accusump System (trunk Mounted) 5 Speed Transmission w/ Transfer Case F+R Prop-shafts Rear Differential With rear Axles.  Nismo Gauge Cluster Nismo Clutch + Flywheel   Essentially what is needed to make this car running and driving again is as follows: A working Engine, an ECU, and time to put it together. The price posted is or best offer as I am willing to remove some components to accommodate price to a certain extent. If any serious buyer wants full detailed pictures, videos, or any questions I'll be happy to answer them. I believe this car is priced to move quickly considering it's a rust free and very straight chassis but always open to fair negotiation.  I can be contacted via phone or email. (+19517081648) email is juan@bardabe.com
