What Have You Done To Your Stagea Lately?

Got myself a factory spoiler off Yahoo Japan. I'll have to change the shape of my "fast groceries" sticker now!

Looks great!

What did it end up costing you to get bit here, if you don't mind me asking?

$400 delivered. (Have seen them go for cheaper in black, silver or white but was happy to pay a bit more to get the factory paint match)

I needed a third roof rack to carry long timbers for work but fitted a cheap wing instead.

Three racks would look crap,plus no where to mount it unless I drill the roof., quite happy with this.

I velcro a sponge roller onto it

Had to spread the mounts right to the ends, then drilled right through the plastic cover trims and hatch to bolt through.

Drill holes are in the drain void too.

Huge difference at 100 km/h, the cars feels way more planted.

Naturally anodised aluminium matches the Whisbars.

Fitted new rda rotors to mine last weekend.

Yesterday I went for a drive with a friend along great ocean road for the first time, definitely going back for more fun at some point

Should have done the 2 small ones as well. Great to know someone on here that can offer this service if required

Have done it before, imo single one looks the best with eyelids

feel like making some more champ?

I don't feel the quality of my install would be up to sale standards lol, also if one of the 200 odd leds blows on the ring/s it will look poos as i, i can make a guide on how to do it if anyone wanted to give it a go

    • People like Johnny Dose Bro might be laughing at my post because I accidentally added 100mm to my numbers. 350-355 is indeed the lower limit. 450 is off-road Skyline spec.
    • What is the "compromise" that you think will happen? Are you thinking that something will get damaged? The only things you have to be concerned about with spherical jointed suspension arms are; Arguments with the constabulary wrt their legality (they are likely to be illegal for road use without an engineering certificatation, and that may not be possible to obtain). A lot more NVH transmitted through to the passengers (which is hardly a concern for those with a preference for good handling, anyway). Greatly increased inspection and maintenance requirements (see above points, both).   It is extremely necessary to ask what car you are talking about. Your discussion on strut tops, for example, would be completely wrong for an R chassis, but be correct for an S chassis. R32s have specific problems that R33/4 do not have. Etc. I have hardened rubber bushes on upper rear control arms and traction rods. Adjustable length so as to be able to set both camber and bump steer. You cannot contemplate doing just the control arms and not the traction arms. And whatever bushing you have in one you should have in the other so that they have similar characteristics. Otherwise you can get increased oddness of behaviour as one bushing flexes and the other doesn't, changing the alignment between them. I have stock lower rear arms with urethane bushes. I may make changes here, these are are driven by the R32's geometry problems, so I won't discuss them here unless it proves necessary. I have spherical joints in the front caster rods. I have experienced absolutely no negatives and only positives from doing so. They are massively better than any other option. I have sphericals in the FUCAs, but this is driven largely by the (again) R32 specific problems with the motion of those arms. I just have to deal with the increased maintenance required. Given how much better the front end behaves with the sphericals in there.....I'd probably be tempted to go away from my preference (which is not to have sphericals on a road car, for 2 of the 3 reasons in the bulleted list above), just to gain those improvements. And so my preference for not using sphericals (in general) on a road car should be obvious. I use them judiciously, though, as required to solve particular problems.
    • Easiest way to know is to break out the multimeter and measure it when cold, then measure all the resistances again once it gets hot enough to misfire. Both the original ignitor and the J Replace version. Factory service manual will have the spec for the terminal measurements.
