Ill be getting 15 grand + i alrdy have a couple of grand saved just from working so i got that covered if i get it and there is stuff wrong with it, but i did want that money for mods lol. I may be on my P's but its not like i work at hungry jacks, ive got a good job that pays extremly well :D

Wow i probably wouldnt of seen that P if u didnt point it out LOL ah well looks good enough, i dont want that P plates that go around the number plater or the magnet ones cuz they are just flat out ugly >.>

theres a nice loooking black for sale for 14g but it hasnt got the sunroofs :thumbsup:

If i buy one without a body kit where in adelaide would sell a boky kits for a Stagea? has anyone brought a new body kit plus had it sprayed so i get a rough idea of how much it will cost?

I think u need to work out what you mean by body kit. The dayz one has the dayz kit on it obviously. I found I enjoyed sunroofs after getting in the 260, just wait til one pops up! Viva garage do kits, seem to b hit and miss tho

I think I heard the fit isnt always 100%? But I cant confirm that either way, Ive got an M35 so their kits are of no use to me but its a starting point for you. Their prices dont seem too bad either http://www.vivagarage.com.au/cart/index.php?c=93

What do u mean by when one ''pops up''? lol dosent sound to good. Yeah with the Dayz body kit ive seen 2 with the dayz kit and they arnt even the same one has a bigger rear spoiler then the other.

yeah i had a look on Viva the kit i like which i think was the Series 2 MS but there out of stock, i didnt realise they were in SA lol. So u mean that i could buy it and it wont even fit the car properly? How can they promote it on the car then lol

Wouldnt know how much to paint them?

And damn that stagea is nice!! but i need an auto dude :thumbsup:

MS style is a Masa motorsport copy

I bought the Viva rear bar and side skirts

Both side skirts were too short and had to be cut and lengthened

The rear bar was 15mm too short on each side and had to cut and lenghtened

Ended spending approx 40 hours modifing them to fit and fix the all the bubbles and pin holes plus they were very poor quality f/glass and heavy.

I would be looking somewhere else.

I think there is some pic's in my build thread somewhere

Oh ok wow lol guess that rules them out then. Is ther anywhere else that makes them and would maybe post them? I tryed to have a look at masa but was japanese lol

Also just another quick question. FMIC are they easy to install onto a stagea? I hear somewhere that FMIC arnt legal if u have to cut anything on the car to make them fit?

where abouts down south do you live mate? i'm down at aldinga if ya wanna go for a squirt in a fairly stand rs4v stagea. just an exhaust and a bit of boost. but it'll give you a good idea on what to expect.

Or if you can make your way to the Regency Park area, I can take you for a squirt in a 204awkw manual Stagea. :D

As for Viva bars ... I bought my Viva Aero type M front bar from them and it fit fine. Just take your time and trial fit it a few times to ensure you get the mounting right. If you're in a rush, then of course it won't fit properly. But maybe I got lucky with the bar. Rest of my kit is Dolphin for skirts and rear. :P

That would be awesome guys. least then i can see the difference between a pretty stock one to a more worked one, im not asking to drive ur car or anything just to go for a quick spin cuz ive never been in 1 before :P

I live at Seaford Rise, so when ever u guys rnt busy :D

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
