After 2 years of not owning a rb powered car, ive purchased a 1997 Rsfour Stagea in a red colour, it is completely standard but has a dayz sticker on the back, done 132000kms. It needs a little bit of a clean up and a few bits replaced (needs a new front bumper) but other than that its good.I pick the car up next weekend

I picked it up yesterday and did the 200km drive from Hobart to Launceston without any dramas and it was pretty good on fuel though, 1/4 tank used on the way up. Today i gave it a wash, the previous owner had owned it for 6 years and dont think it ever saw water or a sponge, its going to need some parts resprayed as the paint is faded badly and some parts on the sideskirts and rear plastics are worn. It also has a non turbo front bumper on it without any air dams or openings on it as the previous owner broke the old one. The Dayz sticker on the back is just a sticker, dont think there are any Dayz options on it. It has the standard 15 inch wheels, 132000kms, all the electrics work. massive quantity of documents about service history and parts been bought. No rust under wing mirrors or strut towers. Im going to get some photos of it up soon and then slowly get it modified a little.

Well pretty sure it has dayz sideskirts; and perhaps it had a lower lip spoiler before the previous owner broke it? Well done on your new RB - I think a Stagea is a fine vehicle to put one in too :D

      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?

      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...

      But if you had to go bury a body in the forest, would you not put that in the boot? Most of them are >=90kg these days.

      That could easily make a horrible noise. +1 to the benefits of: a) Disclosing all relevant information when asking questions such as these, b) Actually going out and having a look at your own car, seeing as you're the one there, and we're not!
