......Your not dealing with moron's in this section from the C34 or M35 owner.....we all know our shit!....sorry we all need to know our shit!.....

It's funny because I feel most of us drive Stagea's because we used to own skylines/race cars etc, and the wagon is an excuse to the missus that we are 'settling down'. Just don't tell the missus that we are modifying the hell out of the 'daily'....

Damn... Now I'm doing it...

HIJACK! :pirate:

Will the proposed Whiteline gear fit on an AXIS?

Searching around the forum seems to indicate I've got different dampers / springs and maybe swaybays or even a wider track when compared to an RS/RX.

Anyone got the 'final word' on whats different about the AXIS suspension wise?

Thanks

Yes it will fit.

Coincidentally, Jules' car (first one for Whiteline) IS an AXIS.

There seems to be a growing misconception that the AXIS is some mystical oddball, with secret Autech options; it isn't. Virtually everything (with a few obvious exceptions) fitted to the AXIS is available as an option on the other models.

It's based on the RS/RX platform with Nismo springs & shocks. No special swaybars, no flux capacitor. A sleek body kit, with some nice std kit.

So anything developed for the NM35 will be suitable.

Hope this helps.

Hi Guys ,

We have fitted sway bars to the R+D stagea of Julius(paramour) and after a test drive the feeling was they are a huge difference making the wagon feel more like a lighter sedan. We do think that some neg camber on the front would help for better turn in but that will add some slightly extra tyre wear but if you guys want that idea for track etc we thought we would let you know.

Here are some pictures of the bar fitted and shows the new bush on the OE bracket at the front plus out new gold alloy lateral locks that stop sideways movement(they all come with bar ).The rear pictures show the bar with new d- bushes and saddles (they come with bar) and the new rear links that can be bought separate.

Hey Guys,

As you can see the sways are on the car now. They make a huge difference, took the old pacific highway road home and man that was a blast. . car handled very very well. I am really really happy and impressed with the difference they make.

Wayne, bars look great, can't wait for some part numbers so we can kick off another group buy! :whistling:

How much extra camber are we talking? At the moment, I have around -1deg front & rear, I take it you're talking at least -1.5, -2deg?

Awesome stuff, would like to go for a spin with you some time to compare...

The nice thing is they make a well balance car responsive to input, either throttle, brakes or steering in a way the standard set up never will.

Looking good Jules.. ;)

still no news ??

found some freeway dolpihin ones

mite get those just got get them shiped from japan

Well Whiteline were happy with the fitment and settings, just needs sign off from their R & D department. Will take a bit more than a few days I suspect. But they are very aware of how keen other Stag owners are so I would assume they are on top of it.

It all depends how patient you are for a set of Sways.

They havent even been on the R&D car for a week!

If you're really that impatient, why even post here? Just keep buy up everything on YAJ; its all available.

Once the bars are listed as a stock item by Whiteline, they will be available. Wayne is already in contact with one of his dealers to help us with Group Buys.

I have not forgotten that people want them, and I'm regularly in touch with Wayne to ensure we get them ASAP, AND at the best possible price. Whiteline are working hard to make sure they have a quality product for everyone, trust me.

I know it's hard to be patient, but cracking the whip isn't likely get you far, as I've already invested plenty of my own time and effort in this. Also, I have a family, a job and a life outside the forum.

I'm making NOTHING out of it, and I already have what I want; I'm just trying to help everyone.

I promise; As soon as there is ANY information, it will be on the forum.

Cheers, Dale.

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
