Greetings from Germany.

i am registered since 2010 and want to introduce myself. My name is Henri and I am 30 years old. I have one little Child (3,5y) and a great girlfriend. I think 2006 we imported an GTiR from GB to Germany and the time was born to ever drive a right hand drive car. My first RHD was a Skyline R33 GTST but only a short time later my son was born and I needed a new/bigger car. I wanted more POWER! 2009 I imported an 260RS S1 directly from Japan to Germany. Today, it is still the only one Autech version in Germany. Total are 9 legal Stagea´s in Germany and every year it is a little bit more.

Before I found your page I`ve had lots of questions. But in this great community I found the answers. Now I also want to give a little back.

Step by step I will post more about my Stagea with pics and statistics. But first a picture of my japanese car before it has been shipped to Germany.

P.S.: don`t know whether or not I`m writing in the right category. I am sorry for this and for my English ;)

Thanks for your welcome.

I have been pretty impressed when I rode this car for the first time. Only a few days later I took part in my first race.

--> see more ;)  

My Stagea has always been stock. Just a MINES Exhaust, MINES ECU and 2 wheel Sets were added. Oh (I forgot)… the rust under the mirrors was included, too – unfortunately ;).

I guess at this time the Stagea had 300bhp. On the German roads my Stagea is one of the big cars. People are always laughing because of the big spoilers. But when I drive at full throttle people are surprised and I get respect. When I then also tell them that my Stagea is a Skyline in big, they are completely amazed ;)

With this setup I drove one year. But then I upgraded. More details will follow.

These are the first pics of my car in germany.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way

      This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.

      Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.

      To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all

      300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
