After a long search I finaly got my Stagea. Been to nearly every dealer in Sydney and some private ones interstate (and spent a lot on car inspections fees). Some good and a lot bad, so without further ado here she is. Crappy mobile phone pics unfortunately.

Things to do are get the radio to pick up Aust channels, reversing camera and after a month or so get the turbo built up. Shes needs a good detail and I´ll do an oil change in a few weeks.

Congrats on the new wheels.

Don't mind the M35s. I'd have one if they came in manual. But alas, they do nos, so I'll make do with the 34 :)

NEEDS MOAR LOW!! :nyaanyaa:

Looks nice, good luck with it! I actually saw one very similar driving through town today. Looked awesome in white, hadn't seen a white Axis before then.

So future mods...

- get the radio to pick up Aust channels - Guessing you have a Bose, so just get a band expander for it unless theres an issue with it. Then when it breaks down, you can replace it with a G35 fascia which will give you a standard 2 DIN hole.

- reversing camera - slippylotion posted up a guide a month or so ago using an ebay special camera. I take it you've got the screen? Just do a search, you'll find it, pretty easy and the cameras are only ~$30-40 on ebay.

- get the turbo built up - Why so soon? Can of worms is open!

Definelty needs MOAR low.

Wasn't a fan of the whites in the rs,rx models but the axis in white looks better than the other models.

I'm not sure what stereo as l'm already at work and didn't check. Hopefully just a quick fix.

For the reversing camera trying to get that done ASAP . I can't seem to get access to slippylotions post but trying to sort something out.

With the turbo ive been told they start to let go around 100k mark so I have some time to save for a new one.

Scotty has found it's oil feed (or lack thereof) that kills them. If they're poorly maintained the banjo to the turbo blocks and starves the turbo of oil.

Just drill it out to 2mm and you should be right.

And I am a fan of the RS in white... thats what I've got! :thumbsup:

There is really no point in taking pics, you can barely see up there and without knowing where the pic was taken from it wont help much.

You can see the oil line if you take off the undertray and look up from the passenger side. Just in front of the driveshaft there is a metal 8mm line with a banjo into the block, remove this and drill out to 1.5mm, then clean any swarf and gunk from the hole before refitting. Is your turbo noisy? Some stockies sound like a jet taking off.

Really? I think the pearl white looks hot in the rs/rx...

admittedly I'm not a huge fan of the AXIS/ARX...looks fat/bloated :P

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
