Stagea

[whitenight27]

hi my name is robert.

i have a 97 s1 stagea. i have to repare the cv joints on the front drive shafts.

i know that they are the r33 gtr. I have a mate with some 32 gtr shafts but not shore if they are the same as 33gtr dose eney1 know?

also i have been told that rb26 intake can fit on the 25?

the same mate just got a 34gtr and is changing the frount brake set up. I would like to use the 34 brakes on the stagea but been told they will not fit?

also if the guy that has the books with all aftermarket parts can get back to me would be greatly appreciated

I have fitted R34GTT brakes front and rear on my S1 Stagea no problems. They bolt straight up. You need to trim the stone guard on the rear and pull the olives out of the lines - you'll see what I mean when you come to it. Not sure about the GTR brakes but I would think they fit as well. Are they Brembos?

R34 gtr front brembos are 14mm bolts so should bolt on. May have caliper clearance issues, depends on wheel design

[whitenight27]

yer they are brembos stock on a 34 gtr .

I have talked to just jap and they are 14 mm bolts and couse the stages run 33 gtst calipers they are 12 or 13 mm bolts

so drilling needed.

I have 18inch vip rims but changing to some work rims when i find out what they are called lol. I seen and like just not know the type yet.

also i found out from just jap that 32 and 33 gtr drive shafts are the same

Dude the people you are taking to are full of it.

1. GTR shafts will be ok
2. rb26 intake will not fit rb25
3. R34 gtr brakes will bolt on

[whitenight27]

yer i know its hard to find good people to talk with in perth.

i have worked out the shafts are the same from 32 to 34.

brakes are all good.

and the 26 inlet will fit on but the ports are diff.

chears for ur info

No it won't fit on you need some kind of adapter plate, and alot of other shit is different

[whitenight27]

yer i know.

all good just get a greddy

[horrace]

Word up that's the best and easiest option, that said people on here still had dramas getting the cars idle and cold start ect to work right. As for info in w.a just stick to this site man I'm from Perth too and this is the best place for info!

careful using willwoods, they dont have dust seals around the pistons. not a good idea on a road car.

I have a JJ greddy copy. There is an excellent DIY in Skylines, by iX9.

If you go greddy PM me and I will tell you about a couple of tricks to make it easier,

[whitenight27]

yer will just do a greddy later. have a few other things to sort out first

i going to be running a heltech Platinum Sport 2000 ecu later as i have been told the stock is not that grate with its tune

and not like being modded.

some mods i am wanting to do are

1, add a piggy back to the stock ecu

2, some coilovers

3, cams and new lifters as 1 or the other is worn

4, r34 gtr front end. have most parts when my mate changes his bits on his 34

5, bigger turbo must be in the stock spot thow.

6, some new coilpacks

7, brakes maby my mates 34 gtr when he upgrades

8, and rims. i have some in mind there work rims but not know the name

i have looked on some sights but no luck. i have found some that look similer they are fabulous profound rims
