I am in Auckland,NZ and very keen on a set of these.

I have front camber/castor arms as well as the rear bolts and BC Gold coilovers, but it's still a boat in the corners.

It would be great to get some control with these.

Daleo's bracing, and the Superpro compression bushes give a much more pronounced handling improvement than the sways imo. Not saying 'don't get em' but increasing the spring rate isn't going to improve the ride much, quite the opposite. I would be doing the lot...

Oh, I have. :P

These are currently not a stock item with Whiteline, but this too, is hopefully going to change soon.

I have shipped bars to NZ, generally my prices are better even once shipping is included.

I'm on the case with this, I'll keep you posted.

I have been chasing for months now; and they have basically told me that there are no plans to re-introduce them.
I presented a case to support their requirement of a minimum order, that I felt I could guarantee, but no.

I even told them that Superpro/Fulcrum are doing a bar set now; but they don't appear interested.

I have lost my direct contact in R&D, and my supplier doesn't get the kind of detail regarding supply that he used to receive either.

I'm sorry guys; I tried. I really tried.

You could go to Fulcrum, but I have no way to get good prices on their product, and they keep no stock; EVERYTHING is made to order, with a minimum 6-8 week lead time.

Thanks for trying for us Dale. For everyone looking for bars I grabbed a set of Superpro from ebay (from these guys: http://stores.ebay.com.au/Online-Performance-Autos). They took about two weeks to get them too me, was advised straight away about the delay. Haven't fitted them yet, cars in getting some work done.

Cheers

Hey Dale,

No problem, thank you for trying your hardest best. You shouldn't feel bad about it. I just upgraded my swaybar mount bushes until I find some bars. Cheers Sonny

SuperPro (I assume) on eBay at the moment:

Fronts (AU $238.50) - NISSAN STAGEA M35 AWD - 2001-2007 Front 33mm HD Blade Adjustable Sway Bar

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/191272490435

Rears (AU $214.65) - NISSAN STAGEA M35 AWD 2001-2007 Rear 20mm HD Blade Adjustable Sway Bar Swaybar
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/360995089393

Would need to confirm if they come with new mount bushes too...I again assume they would.

Hi All,

Just to confirm and somewhat summarise this post from its beginnings...

What is currently the best available option for upgrading the suspension to stop the Stageas handling like a boat?

Have recently bought my 2001 Stagea (NM35) 250T RS Four and would like to sort it early next year.

Regards,

Toby

SuperPro is basically your only option in Australia now, Whiteline no longer manufacture bars for the NM35; and are not interested in reassessing that decision.

Lol... Rare!

Dale, ages ago, we did a group buy. I think it was selbeys or someone attached to that name? That's what I've got. Anyway, would that be an avenue for people wanting bars to explore again, or they out of business now?

Alex, Todd Selby was the guy I used, his business is Signature Swaybars.

He's still in business, but he moved down the South Coast.

The issue will be price IMO; he was around $300 per bar, and I'd imagine that will have increased in the meantime.

For the same money you could do the SuperPro bars. Maybe Scotty will chime in; I know he does a fair bit of trade with them nowadays; perhaps a group buy or bulk order could be placed?

I know they only manufacture to order; they don't keep stock on the shelf.

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
