So iv'e managed to sell my 33. Well it didn't really take long but long story short I needed a bigger car for work and family. I am most likely picking up a stag tomorrow and as any typical guy am already looking at what mods to use and who to talk to.

I'm sure there's a stagea thread on here so anyone got any directions?

Oh and yes i feel bad for selling the line but at least I haven't strayed to far from the pack. lol

Cheers

Kane

when inspecting look for the rust spots, door mirrors is common they all have it, some are fixed some are not. but if you look in the first link and find my topic on strut tower rust, you'll see the drama's im having atm. BUT there was no sign of the rust 1 year ago when i inspected it.

good luck.

I don't give a shit whether you buy mine or not, but have a look at it as a template for mods :devil:

They need the standard RB 100k service upon purchase, they NEED good pads, tyres, shocks and alignment bushes, the springs and swaybars are an optional mods, but the others are a maintenance item. Radiator reco is a peice of mind thing.

Full exhaust saves fuel and makes it go better, same with FMIC.

Will add more after dinner.

If you are interested in making an offer on mine, feel free, if you have stagea questions, I will answer them whether you are interested in mine or not, here or in the stagea section.

find that hard to believe, im lucky to see 400 out of a full tank, standard exhaust i was getting a minimum 400 once ran it till 450-60

interesting... my freeway fuel consumption improved massively when i did dump/front/cat, also helped around town.

have you done your cat? and done plugs lately?

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
