So I've had my Stagea for sale for a while but was in no real hurry to get rid of it. But after the last bloke came and looked at it and I went through another round of getting my hopes up and then getting all upset about not hearing back I decided to lower the price.

Lowered it to $17.5k (which I think is an absolute steal!) and within 4 hours, the guy that had looked at it rang me back and asked if he could put a deposit on it immediately.

So I just need to replace the front brake pads and get her detailed and she's no longer mine :P

It'll be real sad to see her go, but on the upside, it means I'm either 1 step closer to owning a house or 1 step closer to owning an FD RX7, lol, I'm yet to decide means more to me.

But anyways, the end of an era is fast approaching, time to make new friends with different cars and learn all about them. haha.

Wasn't originally going to come out on Sunday due to the painfully early start time - But since its my last chance, I'll make a serious effort to get there.

It was great to have a such a supportive and helpful team of people here on the forum to help me with my many enquiries. Thanks a bunch guys.

Hope theres a similar forum to help me out with my FD!

And Adam, I've sent you a msg :(

Last night? No.

Friday night? Maybe. lol. That's when I lost it and I've had a few complaints of late night phone calls already :D

Not a bad idea to be honest... But the poor bloke should have some decent working brake pads.

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?
    • Summernats cruiser?
    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
