that looks pretty good. mmmmmm if only my car had the Dual sunroof....

jut note that they have fitted ARX wheels to the AXIS. Axis wheels are slightly different but still 18's as are the ARX.

Good luck.

Yeah I noticed that.

I am going to question them about it, but ultimately I'm not too concerned. I want to purchase a nicer set down the track anyway.

Thanks for the replies guys.

Hey Chris/Amanda, it's Eugene here.

You came and test drove our black ARX a few weekends back at Northshore Prestige. Although you guys liked the car, it was formerly owned by a smoker. Well we have just imported a very nice gold ARX Stagea which is almost identical to the black one you guys saw, only that there's no smoke :ninja:

If you are coming down to Sydney again, please drop by again if you have the time. Here's a link to some pics. It's on the 2nd page.

Not bad Eugene, however I prefer the clearance issues I have with my RS ;) gotta love the Nismo S-Tune suspension, I can scrap the front aero kit on practically anything :)

Here's everything you need to know about these importers. Just read the last few pages and you will get a good idea..

Hi Eugene.

Thanks for the info. We have been in contact with Ben, and he sent us through some photos yesterday I believe. It does look nice. We will be down Sydney way this weekend, so hopefully we will be able to make our way over there. We are useless driving in the city lol...

Thanks Again for your help and service.

What sort of price range are you looking for?

Bloody smokers cars!!! :huh:

Ah forgot to answer question lol.

We are looking ate spending 23-24k. We have our wedding in May so we don't want to spend any more than that, as we have other moneys put aside.

Hopefully the cars we are looking at check out fine, as they suit what we are after and they come in under our budget.

Hopefully I can get a bit lower as they'll be getting the amount in cash.

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
