lol, why do all stagea owners have another car?

or is it that lots of car owners have a stagea as a second, practical car?

LOL, my Stagea is my one and only car. I constantly see cars that I would love to buy, but I can't see myself getting rid of the LOLvo, and I can't justify owning two cars.

my old Honda Civic EG:

a bit ricey:

no power mods other than catback exhaust, ghetto DIY intake (less than $100 incl K&N pod filter) and a light tune using VAFC...other mods were all handling stuff - coilovers, all the braces that i could get

what do i do if my non stagea, IS a stagea?? but then i do have a commodore......:sick::spank: its ok for skids.... when its running :down:

Mine too. Then have the 84Sky. The Slimey Sil has now gone.

my fun car

84 bluebird TRX, coilovers, s13 front brakes 910 disc rears, swaybars, cam, twin webers, exhaust

soon to go ca18 when i get my shed sorted 17's soon to be fitted

pics are with 16's

its just a loud low car that i bought as my first car some 10 years ago on my p's - both it and I survived...

Hmm actually there are quite a few more than that around.

There are 4 in WA, and I know of about 6 or so in the Eastern States.

It is rumoured that every Ford Dealer had one car for display.

Here are some from a recent show in the UK. This photo shows the shape better.

Here is a pic & vid of my non stagea (VTR1000). I just got it back from the repairer after a lady in a Honda Odyssey hit me from behind when I was making a right turn in a roundabout. She sent me flying 20 mtrs, needless to say I am still recovering after a number of broken bones. :domokun:

I have decided to sell it & use some of the funds towards the Stag, I will buy another one just for track work (NO CARS, NO POLES, NO GUTTERS)

Below is the vid

grrrr, everything is bolted back in minus the driveshafts

stupid tasmania, posting anything with aus post takes aaaaaaages here

anyone got any ideas on how to paint the corolla really cheaply but have a decent, lasting result?

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
