hey all, just noticed there was a stagea classifieds sub forum so thought i'd do away with my post in the forum wide classified section and try here to get an actual response. basically after a c34 stagea and nothing is really sparking interest in SA at the moment.

looking at a white s2 with a dayz bodykit on it in good cond, and normal mods (exhaust and intercooler). normal wear for 12-15 year old car is fine.

i've got $10k to spend, and am willing to look into anyone that has one in vic too.

probably pushing my luck, but something with sunroof would be pretty good.

Paid $12,500 for my bog stock series2 awd.. was very poorly converted to manual by a dodgy previous owner.... within 2 weeks turbo blew and gearbox died. Spent quite a bit making my car "normal"... you need more than 10k especially if you want luxury (sunroof)

Im assuming you didn't get it inspected, if all those things went wrong so soon after the purchase they would have been viable to a mechanic.

unfortunately my ex said it was a decent car after looking at it... I needed a wagon pretty badly for my dog so I trusted his judgement. in hindsight I should have gotten it inspected, but that was my bad and slowly my partner is fixing all the dodgy stuff my ex and previous owner did. aka backyard mechanics who know nothing...

off topic, sorry mate.

have a look on gumtree, there's actually some available for the price your wanting to pay in Adelaide.

you'll find one for 10..lol, its just a waiting game..they may be advertised for more..but trust me they don't sell for that...seen plenty

with leather/sunroofs go for 10 after being for sale for 15, then mid 12's for 6 month at a time

I imported my s.2 , 4wd full dayz kitted, leather, heated seats, double sunroof, lowered and exhaust, cost me $10,500 registered and complied...its mint. I imported it because i coudn't find a white one, heaps of black and silver ones though

your car was pretty modified before it was put back to stock to sell, not suprised you had problems with it...

hopefully. i've had two lined up, one in vic which sold the next day after i rang the guy, and another in SA. both albeit without sunroof, but with everything else i was after. just have to play the waiting game or maybe even look at importing one

Buy mine.

i actually sent you a txt a while back and forgot to get back to you. you mentioned it had a few touchups on the paint and a dent. any more details on those? ta

  • 4 weeks later...

thanks guys, found and bought a silver one locally. 98 dayz rs4s manual, coilovers, turbo back exhaust with screamer, sunroofs, pretty much perfect condition paint and body wise and mechanically it runs perfectly too (has had its timing belt done and serviced regularly). got it for a little under $10k with 3 months rego too :) now the fun of buying mods for it begins...

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
