I would like to thank everyone who kept an eye out for the Stagea. It is greatly appreciated. Unfortunately for me the search is over as the car was found burnt to a pulp in Mawson Lakes at 7am this morning :(

That sucks man ;( Sorry to hear it.

Lowlife pricks...

oh no. Hope that someone got seriously burnt while trying to burn your pride and joy mate

Yeah it sucks big time! But there are some salvageable parts from it. The rims, tyres and brakes are fine. The motor didn't ignite so most of it is still ok. Apparently onlookers saw it pull up at Mawson Lakes at 6am yesterday morning, full to the brim with stolen goods. Then a truck came and they moved the loot from my car into the truck, torched it and took off. Hoping that bastards get caught!! Too bad nobody that saw it thought to take down a number plate for the truck.....

So now the process of stripping the car and selling what I can begins! I'll try to put some pics up so you can see the damage.

Just joined to provide further info for you. I get news updates from sapol on facebook. Yesterday they mentioned your burnt out car plus a truck being stolen from a construction site where your car was located. About an hour later, they had a pursuit with that truck on the gawler to two wells road heading into gawler.

Truck was abandoned in craigmore and sapol arrested one of the offenders with another one escaping.

Hopefully they can link them to you car and give them what they deserve.

Try contacting Corporal Security aswell as they patrol a majority of Mawson Lakes and may have seen something. Definitely pass any info onto SAPOL as it could help their case. According to the GRN paging website, MFS received the call about the car fire at 620am.

Stagea is getting pulled apart asap. So if anybody knows people who want any bits, I will be taking photos of what is salvageable.

Thanks guys.

Might be worth throwing up a thread in the 'Stagea Parts Classifieds' section http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/forum/145-stagea-parts-classifieds/

Sorry to hear dude. Sucks big time. :down:

When you're ready to part, there is something I'd like and its a little hard to explain the part. I'll tee up a time to look at the car when you have retreived it and are ready to part it, so I can point to what I'm after.

p.s. how bad are passenger side doors? Warped from the heat of fire?

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
