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

You can probably still view it here:

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.

Looks like we "Volvo" drivers are gaining numbers!

You guys modding or staying stock?

Pics of cars guys (or create a Garage).

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 :)

    • You can’t see much on the other side as the lcd is there I don’t think it’s the same as the m33 beside it as the markings on top is not the same was hoping someone had a good quality photo or if they just happened to have the unit in hand, quickly take the cover off and take a photo to clearly show the marking on top to identify the diode   the unit is currently with an electronics repair shop so I can’t take another photo at the moment hopefully they are smart enough to know if it’s a zener diode or not
    • I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.
    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
    • Hi, Marek here 🙋‍♂️. I finally fulfilled my longtime dream - recently bought Stagea and now waiting for it to arrive in Poland. There's only few of these in my country, and one of the owners  recommended mi this forum as a source of all the info i'd need since now i own one  so here i am.  
    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
