I purchased this car from the last owner, in NSW, who was the first owner in the country and had the car imported through J-Spec. Comes with a folder FULL of instruction manuals for parts, owners handbooks, import papers etc.

Being a factory RWD, it is ~200kg lighter than the AWD version which means better power to weight and more fuel efficient.

Model: 1998 Nissan Stagea RS V - S2

Mileage: 83444 (as of 04 April 2011)

Factory Options:

Rb25det neo

Factory RWD, tiptronic box

Switchable Traction Control

Rear Privacy Glass

Rear Cargo Blind

Rear Cargo Net

5 Piece Floor Mats

Air Con w/Climate Control

Auto Closing Tailgate

Reclining Rear Seat

Dual Airbags

Aftermarket Options:

R33 brakes all round

R33 GTR Intercooler with East Bear piping kit

Brand new battery

CUSCO mechanical LSD

Genuine Dolphin Full Bodykit

NA Grille (Chrome)

Dolphin Roof Panels (to delete ugly black rails on stock Stageas)

Full Re-spray in R34 GTR Z-tune silver

Aftermarket Wing

Nismo Exhaust

Nismo Strut Tower Brace

Currently has Precedeo lowered springs in the rear and standard struts in the front

K&N panel filter

Australian Standard alarm and immobiliser with 2 remotes

High End Sony CD/MD Player and Speakers (Awesome sound setup - model numbers can be found in the instruction manual pic)

SAFC2

18" factory V35 wheels

S14 rear cradle (non Hicas)

Brand new whiteline polyurethane subframe bushes

Brand new tie rod ends

Clear side indicators

HKS EVC3 (not currently installed)

Nismo Aluminium Foot Pedal Covers (Not currently fitted)

Last owner had the boost controller in it and running 12 psi made 297rwhp (219kW) with dyno sheets.

The negatives:

- Front bar has a small amount of damage to the drivers side lower corner. It has been re-fibreglassed from the inside, just the outside visible bit that requires attention if fussy.

- Wing was painted in a rush for Autosalon, the colour match and finish is not perfect but close enough.

- V35 wheels have some scuff marks

- Would recommend a wheel alignment now that the height has been changed.

- Front seats are from a series 1 stagea, so trim is slightly different.

For reference sake, the vs-kf in the pics are 18x9.5+2 and 18x9.5+1

Some of the bolt on parts have been removed since the AutoSalon photos, the pics with the V35 wheels are as it sits currently.

Price is $15,500ono and car is located in Adelaide.

PRICE DROPPED TO 14,000!!

Convert to manual and take it sliding for something different - could also leave it auto and do the same as per this video

    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
