Follow this link to seee V35 sedan like no other. (ignore the women in pushup bras at the start, the stagea boys got a bit carried away hahah)scroll down its about 3/4 down the page.

I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder.. but personally, I think that is ugly.. (the car, not the girls..)

Don't want to detract from your dedication though.. i am sure there are many hours worth of work there!

And the standard sedan coupe nose is better how? Atleast i dont have to worry about my headlights going to absolute crap with discolouration of the lenses. But its your opinion your entitles to it.

The only reason i did it was because i had damage on all the front panels besides the bonnet and i didnt want the ugly front so i went withing the nissan FM platorm family to its closest relo the M35 stagea for a new nose

I would have done a coupe nose but i would have needed custom fenders but it just would have looked the same as the factory nose. I respect your opinion i was just pulling ya leg. Opinions are like a@#holes; everyones got one.

Nice work dude.

IMO it works, considering the rear of the sedans aren't quite like the coupes (a bit boxier?), fairly certain it will look better in person too

Just probably won't work with the coupes.

Who knows, you might actually start a new trend?

No different from people with Onevia's / Sileightys etc.

Or even the R34 front conversions for the Stags.

:thumbsup:

I think I like it... need moar pics pls! Looks like the lights were a bitch to align, or is that a test fit?

I actually like the sedan lines and haven't seen this particular front swap done before, so nice one.

I like it because it's unique, well done. I do personally think those stagea's are ugly though.

May be ugly but the rozzers ignore us. Anyone feeling irresponsible can peel off a 12-13 sec qtr in front of them & they'll turn around & book one of you P platers for dark tint, lol. Plus we can fit half of your car in the back.

Don't worry, not many of us like v35s... :P

^^^ haha

Mark, I think you've done a fine job on the Stagline. It's unique & you did it your way :thumbsup:.

All that's left is to convert the back two thirds....

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
