k's is always based on the engine, unless otherwise specified.

Odd, everything I've read says km's are based on the chassis. (You can change the engine, doesn't mean diddly to the km the car has travelled).

most of the ads i have seen state k's, then they state how many k's the chassis has done if its had a replacement engine. lets face it, 90% of cars for sale right now have the original engine, so it could really be quoting either engine or chassis.

the kms traveled counts how much the whole car has traveled, indicating wear to bushes, suspension components etc etc. Engine is classified in the same thing unless its been changed.

At this point you see ads that say car traveled 120,000kms on the clock (meaning the chaissis etc) and engine 60,000kms (self explanatory).

i might be able to help you with a loan from comm bank if you want...

Savings and Loans are great... they got me the loan when Bank SA refused me and said I can only take out $13k even though I was on a higher than required wage.

Went to Savings and Loans and they had no idea why Bank SA refused me. Oh well.

Ok next question is, the car I'll be getting might have high kms just because it's cheaper, once here I was thinking on having it eng rebuilt (rb26tt). So any good palce and how much dose it cost?

lol

i never tried at banksa cos even tho im a member, i didnt like their terms

called S&L when i wanted to buy the gtr, had to provide proof of employment + salary, pass credit check as well as provide details of the vin number and engine number (as its a secured loan) but had absolutely no problem in spite of having 10k worth of credit cards (at the time - thank fk i dont have that much debt now)

i also took out the income insurance premium when i took the loan out (which is currently in the 3rd year of a 5 yr contract) and it has helped me when I was between jobs earlier this year - the cover ended up paying for 8 weeks worth of repayments (which equated to $1.3k) and you can claim the unemployment cover once every financial year, incase you get screwed over - and it costs bugger all to begin with, something like $100... well worth it imho

    • Nice one, I'd argue that the white S1 RS260 is certainly the best looking of the Stageas. And yes, fully agree on the forum situation. It's a bit of a shame, but at least SAU is a good place to be. I found the facebook groups to give me FOMO because people were trying to one-up each other and show off in some way. Feels much more natural here. There are people with seriously nice builds, but I can appreciate it rather than it making me question my life choices. Might be that people are more open with sharing how much work/money/suffering it takes to actually get there. 
    • Evening, wanted to pop in and finally register to say hi to everyone here on SAU!   It's been a while since I've been active on a forum, but back in the day I used to be relatively active on ClubLexus and other hobby-related forums. I'm glad to see SAU is still around, since with the advent of Facebook and Discord it seems forums aren't what they once were. As a recent new owner of an S1 260RS Stagea, I've found so many older guides and helpful tips from SAU that I figured I needed to join and say a grave thank you. My recent acquisition has only become legal in the US for the past year, and knowing that similar car enthusiasts from across the pond have already figured out the kinks and tricks to get these 25+ year old cars running well. I look forward to diving into more of the SAU forums as well as hopefully contribute some info myself for future posterity.   As a pic tax, here is one of the few good photos I have of my Stagea. I hope to get way more in the future!    
    • Is this where I say "Hey man my airbox cost me horsepower in my Naturally Aspirated Engine"? (I know you need them for legality in NSW)
    • 1.5mm alloy folded up, it will need a tweek, as the angled bend only got to around 45° as that was the max that the break press would get with the other bends, and I needed a fair bit more, but and the alloy is easy to bend too my will by hand once I trim the lower section out I'll Dremel out and form the angle and mounting point on the lower section when time permits  As for the lid, I'm looking at going a "cap", instead of a flat lid to hide the fixtures a bit
